hey thank you - that extra $58 I need to collect in the call....that would be approx a +$5800 in added credit before I actually start earning out of the -58 on the covers?

Ok. I understand the broad strokes. Can someone help with this example. If I'm buying GOOGL calls Jan 2023. The 1600 call strike is 760. Delta is about .89 I buy 1 call strike lets say. Now I'm a poor owner of GOOGL 100 shares synthetically. The april 30th 2400 call is $23 1) I'm "safe" in...

hi... if I sell ITM puts (cash secured) expiring next friday - do I get immediately exercised? If not when? Also ..same question but with selling puts ITM today - do they exercise immediately or last minute trading day? thanks

if you sell CSP on an etf like GUSH do you have to pay the etf expense ratio fee?

If i choose "SPX" instead of ES I get access to futures...and if i choose Jun then it pops into my watchlist but then says trading restricted...

That does not work for me. If I type ES I do not access anything specifically called "options"...below is the actual popup i get. I fi choose "index" i getan erro message saying you cannot trade an index. Under futures i get choices for ES only.

Hi all Currently have SPY to trade options; How do I get to trade SPX via IB? I tried entering SPX in my quotes columns but could not access info - what am I missing...does IB want more money lol?

thank you so much for that. regards.

hi all When initiating a CC position....ideally Do i Sell call options first or buy shares first? Thank you

the problem with that is the reason for the short in the first place may disappear by the time you fill the order. Do you get a message saying the order was found - do you still want to short? Or do you just fill it. How are you notified for the fill? A lot of these stocks are very fast moving.

it's the prelocate that i'm having an issue with..thanks i'll up the hunt.

Thanks but the stock does not trade options. It's just weird IB's whole "we'll try to locate shares for you" but no actual method describing what needs to be done to initiate the process.

He guys if you don't know that's fine. But I'm not asking for trading advice. It's just a technical question that I've not experienced with other brokerages. I hoped i'd get a quicker reply here the IB cs. Or possibly some times on getting unavail shares. The mom factor is pretty large on ET.

I understand the risk. Thank you. Can you answer my question?

I see on IB that it notifies you that shares are not avail but may be located... 1) how do you tell IB to locate them? 2) how long does it take? 3) what if by the time they are located you do not want to short it... i'd certainly appreciate any info on this....or is it not even worth it on...

the woman was in the driveway - not in the bedroom. a warning shot could not have been an option? Are you seriously condoning killing people over theft. Even stealing does not have a death penalty in a 3d world shithole.

"We're only questioning this cause it came from a message board." There it is. Brokers and analysts don't know what to think, because this wasn't kicked off by their good old boys club; it was regular people. If GME's surge was planned and instigated by Wall Street, they'd all be patting...

Ok - so I may have not read that fine of a print but it's pretty shocking. I was interested in purchasing 100,000 shares of a Canadian stock (SCR.TO) and it appears IB wants to charge me $1000 for this trade. Its a simple trade and most online competitors charge $20 or less. I don't want to...

IBKR needs to update it's concept of a penny stock to reality. " Penny Stock Definition - Investopedia www.investopedia.com › ... › Penny Stock Trading Nov 17, 2020 — A penny stock typically refers to the stock of a small company that trades for less than $5 per share. ..." If i tell you I'm...

I know what pink sheets are but GBTC does not meet the criteria of a penny stock by any reasonable measure.
