I got crushed today on TCDA. Sold the $5 put, which expires on 18th november, some weeks ago for $2,25. Underlying price was at $12. Nice premium received. But in hinsight it was a poisened gift. TCDA crashed today 94%. Options are in the money. TCDA is priced at $0,60! Options price is now...

Which datafeed do you use with InvestorRT to scan 1300 symbols? Is it IB´s`?

I like Motivewave so far. I bought the orderflow edition. You can use it with IB`s datafeed (not tick based) or with dxfeed or barchart. Dxfeed´s CME, Top of book, costs $19,00

You misunderstood me. I meant the still necessary co-operation with china (Autoindustrie etc). I´m totally against selling the port to China.

No one wants this but it´s necessary otherwise germany´s economy gets crashed. At the meantime the government attempts to end the dependency on russian gas and oil. US is in a nice comfort zone. Two oceans, own energy, all great.

I guess chancelor Olaf Scholz is afraid China could cut the supply chain to germany if he refuses to agree to this deal. All the other german party leaders are vehemently against such a deal. Hamburg is Scholz´hometown and he was its mayor some years ago.

Recently someone recommened a book for automatic trading, but i couldn´t find the threat again. Can someone help? Thanks.

Has someone used the combinination Tradingview/IB? I had sometimes problems to get connected to IB so i will change to IB´s booktrader again and will keep Tradingview for charting. To me it seems more reliable.

That´s not new. Daily options were introduced months ago.

You described the situation very well. Do you think it would be better to take an option which expired one or some days later when trading very short term? Premium would be higher, but time decay wouldn´t be so dramatic. I think you are mostly trading vertical spreads. Is there a possibility to...

@BlueWaterSailor You are absolutely right i expressed myself wrong. A $1 move in the underlying at delta 50 lead to a gain of $0.50 in premium. But $0.50 x 100 (multiplier) lead to a gain of $ 50 in premium. That fits with your calculation above for a 5 point move. But because of gamma also the...

I didn´t want to start a thread which becomes personal between two members. @MacBookProHo. I asked no question in regards to understand options and futures, i do. I only wanted to start a thread to get some opinions about this topic. My understanding is this: When buying a Delta 50 option you...

Hello, is someone regular trading 0DTE-SPX options long (call or put)? Mostly ODTE SPX options are mentioned in terms of selling vertical spreads. But that´s not what i mean. I mean trading them instead of index futures (only long). When your are right with your positioning you are making big...

When trading Odte SPX options today i had the same question. Can´t answer the question yet. I think i have heard trading ends at 04:15 pm, but i´m not quite sure.

Would like to know, what you are trading at the moment. Single stocks, Options on indexes, Futures (may be overnight)? At the moment it´s difficult to me to choose the right stocks, because a lot of them already increased a lot and i missed a little bit the train moving out of the station ;-)

I know it since someone recommened it on his homepage. Is it right that you have to pay a yearly fee of $ 100 ?

Is anyone day trading on Tradingview connected to Interactive Brokers? I am not quite sure, if i should use Tradingview IB´s integration or instead using Tradingview only for charting and sending orders via booktrader.

Some months ago i almost sold some puts on CFRX. This would have led to a disaster. Premium was really high but today you know why.

But when it takes a half hour to get filled, that makes no sense to me.

I tried to trade vertical spreads on SPX in an IB paper account but never get filled, even when selecting "market". Is this normal? I wanted to get familiar with trading vertical spreads on tws before trading real money.
