Yes. 150 cents.

I routinely buy 100,000 contracts. Sometimes I buy 200,000 contracts if I have some laying around in my account. No liqudity problems.

I refinanced my house and pawned my dog to buy shares. Pookie don't worry, daddy is coming back to get you once the bid hits 180.

yeah yeah. i laughed at revenues - i never said the stock wouldn't do well. come on, 300k in revenues is funny.

Isn't this really just like buying a $1 stock that goes $3?

How long after IPO before options - if any - are available on a stock?

Not for calls.

Oh, sorry Mav, didn't know you traded at his firm. Hope I didn't offend you with my MBA remark (too much caffeine today).

lol at Adam mentioning HBS and Wharton MBAs. As if his firm is even on their radar screens. What I got from the article - and from the 2004 ET thread on Adam ( http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=42143&highlight=wasserman ) - is that the guy is a salesman and...

I started off with extreme skepticism of TA. Then I started to see the signficance of it. Now I'm back to skepticism - though I do like RSI, Std dev, ATR, and MACD. Heck, I guess even volume is considered TA. I think - and I'm just guessing here - that most daytraders use TA because...

Can you two just PM each other instead? It is apparent that someone on this thread has never taken a statistics course. It's frustrating to watch.

Options are easy money :)

Speaking of OTM options, let me say that every options book should have in big red letters a warning for options buyers that the bid/ask spread for otm options is insane. When do you ever see a bid for a stock (say Ebay) at $20 and the ask at $40? Never. But that's what happens with...

MO hasn't been below 60 since Dec. 04. It's somewhat unlikely that it will go below 60 in the next 16 days.

Fred, the linked forum is more your crowd. I suggest you post there instead: http://messages.yahoo.com/?action=q&board=GOOG

NFI. Has hit HV of 90 and 70 in past 4 months. The HV chart looks like a heartbeat. Yet the ATR is only from about .9 to 1.5. ATR is less work :)
