    I would like to update my performance for first two weeks of October, trading weekly covered calls. I have achieved 1% per week on my equity with IB. First two weeks were good as markets were going up. This may not be achieved over the whole year. I donot mind spending 0.1 to 0.2 % of my income...

    What could possibly go wrong

    MTE Thanks for your blunt advise. I was thinking of buying a put vertical. Because I donot understand risks involved , I have started this thread. I am scared as well of the risks and that is one reason why I donot use 50% of my cash. But your points well taken.

    IB has a Trader Dashboard on top of every page. You can have Cushion displaced there. And somwhere it is documented that if cushion falls to 10% IB will send an alert. IB will liquidate only when Cushion is negative. My cushion has hardly fallen below 50%

    What could possibly go wrong

    If you have a hard time imagining what could go wrong, just pull up a chart of SPY or any other index ETF and look at the move end of June this year. Thanks MTE I had several positions end of June and nothing had happened. SPY and others gradually went up and I have continued to do the...

    I found this quote on their web page. " A good approximation of the current "A" value for any stock, would be to take 30 day average range (h-l) and use 20-25% of this value. This is quite confusing to me .Can you help me please- where can I find h-l values for 30 days ? This much...
