no actually vol's aren't bad, seriously doubt coffee will go do zero based on CD's (and everyone else's) coffee habits:) I'm bummed that TOS isn't allowing option trading on the /KC because what I think I would do is long the KC and short the monthly call against it. Thats why just selling...

didn't want to clutter up the CL trade with off topic however seems to be picked up interest in the coffee trade. I'm kinda looking at a long trade via short put and pulled up this chart. Interesting trade this AM....over 900 June 22 call contracts traded on a low volume and low interest...

just to clarify, on TOS/amtd they offer the straight futures and show the futures options /KC...you can go long or short the future just right now can't trade either the call or put option. JO is a tradable equity both the puts and calls. fwiw I find selling puts a conservative long. If...

don't know if you listen to Tom and Tony on Tastytrade but a guy called in today and was recommending JO and /KC. Their hesitation in putting on the trade was low trading volume also you can't trade the futures options even tho they are shown. I found it pretty interesting and thinking of...

and you never make a trade:D

no prob..didn't click on the link so just wasn't sure what happened.

welp it may be a bumpy ride but my daily SPX has turned down so betting on red this week.:cool:

Was I just in a time warp? I swear I responded to a thread he started which granted was a plug for an article he wrote...did the thread with my response get removed? Or did I just "think" it happened:eek:

dunno if today is a BTFD day or not. Using the dip to tidy up this weeks trades. If we have more followthru tomorrow I will be selling a next week put. Just nice to have some movement to work with.

uhmmm...a little history lesson might be in order ..from US History.org The Origins of the Republican Party Salmon Chase Salmon Chase Where was the party born? Following the publication of the "Appeal of Independent Democrats" in major newspapers, spontaneous demonstrations...

Understand what YOU are saying and totally agree. Trading if hard work.

not understanding this sentence....its a kinda run on...could you re phrase it pretty please.

I tried out zumo for its try out period and liked it...however I sent them an e-mail to ask if the 15K cash requirement is net liq or including margin and didn't get a reply. When I priced in the platform cost the net savings didn't seem that great for someone who trades 100 contracts a month...

I'm having difficulty reading with the blue. A more intense color would be better like red or purple...or hey how about Green...the color of money :)

I checked them out a few months ago but at the time they didn't have options on futures but said they were going to offer them. Very simple and basic and I would/am seriously considering adding them as another broker. Hope you do a review of them if/when you do open an account. I liked them...

agree but contracts traded in the weeklies have increased exponentially in a few short years and many traders roll rather than take the weekend risk of gap down/up over Sun nite. my observation (thought)....no basis in fact:D

I had thought we might get a down day but not really looking like a trend. weekly expiration looks like "they" might want to pin the 50. I'm with ammo in that if we break 47-48 decisively then there may be an abandon ship and take your profits mentality to push ES down farther. However I'm...

yep..looking at the past 6 weeks...2 weeks grinding down and 4 weeks grinding up. The pattern on this daily looks like it could continue.

Interesting day...a lot of movement but VIX doesn't really confirm a stronger move down. The down trend ended after a touch or two of 1751 broke to the upside then went back down. EOM settling as well. I'm going long if we hit 48.5 .

With both direction and time going against you are you considering just getting what you can for them tomorrow, or are you willing to ride it down to 0 ?
