Just like last quarter the worthwhile (for near dated calls) repricing move w/ FB happened prior to the ER, last time it was 15% in ~4 weeks, this time ~12% in 3. I know because I positioned for this 3 weeks ago buying each weeks's weekly calls at higher strikes. Now the IV you have for ER week...

Interesting idea and it might do a decent job in the short term indeed, I suppose. Since my interest in PSH is as a core holding in some ultra-long term investment accounts, this approach will not work for me. It is however extremely annoying that this should happen at possibly the most...

Distinction must be made between 1) legging into a position & 2) buying more simply because you are "down" & figure by buying more you can turn green & exit faster. Former being useful typically for "longer" term stuff & later being the precursor to pending, eventual, & un-avoidable doom. I...

Cool thx, I've got "Varoon" sorta looking into it but it's a bit like trying to push a door open with a wet noodle & I cannot get a straight answer about temporary vs permanent (nobody knows I reckon). I am exerting as much pressure as I can to make the fund available once more but don't have...

Care to share the specifics of that trade? Seems like a sensible enough thing to do.

Yup it looks to be an opportunity, the proverbial "mis-pricing"

I don't know that a "pop" will be created. I agree w/ you the Valeant story is getting ugly-er and is worrisome to a holder of PSH, however I point out that due to fall in share price of VRX the exposure of the fund on % basis is not what it once was, in other words, you've already taken bulk of...

that is definitely a random sampling technique

That's an interesting non-answer

HO LEE FOOK (sorry I just love saying that) Also, who the f@c# is Altucher? Oh, never mind, I see, a blogger

Howdy, I checked out that thread and it's making my head spin. :eek::confused: Curious how they determine which posts to feature in that trending thread, kinda thinking it must be some sort of random sample of all the posts or something.

I'm in, always up for something new

I once read somewhere that a great many trading careers have been prematurely terminated due to the fallacy that a spread "should" revert to past posture - Just sayin'

sooooo... Any small cap stocks in Hong Kong gonna get hyperbola'd tonight as a result?

We've had to cases here where they explained it as due to "clearing issues"

OK noted & thx for the further info. I am insisting w/ IB that they fix this & insisting it is a deficiency. In the case of my issue, I was able to verify w/ 2 other brokers that they still support trading, so it IS an IB issue. As "professional's gateway to the world's mrkts" (loosely...

^ Gentlemen, thank you both for your comments, from which I conclude that this is likely a temporary issue.

I had been trading a stock/fund listed in Amsterdam, (AEB) but as of recently I cannot buy it; I get the following message"closing transactions only". Have been on phone, chat, & ticket w/ customer service, get an explanation that "due to some clearing issues we have restricted any additional...
