:) Thanks, by the way u know any good cheap option books $20 or less? I lost $300 already with options and if the market goes down I will lose more. So I really hope this delta bet doesnt pan out.:( btw didn't this bet happen 2 days ago with 240k options??

OMG I JUST FOUND OUT A SHOCKING THING I downloaded this free option calculator filled in stuff like price of stock, strike, volatility (i think they mean volatility of option), dividend and interest rate. By the way, I dont get what they mean with interest rate. Is is saving rate of feds rate...

Whats a delta bet and whats a skew bet?:p :confused:

They would meet their strike price around ES 1120, I bought them at ES 1055 and now at ES 1100 barely in the money, some are in the red!:(

I had the same thing. First I figured IB was stealing pennies. Then I found out about sub pennying. When you buy and sell stock do u use 4 decimals and don't round off?

if i cant buy calls because i think the bottom is in because of vol then what can i do to plan on taking advantage of snapbackrally?

Well today it was actually very likely the market would rise after the open and would not fill gap. Previous 9 instances seemed to be all positive, if this analysis is correct.:eek:

but i noticed that the puts really rose in value today, maybe volatility isnt so important with vix options

week of time erosion? because its a week after expiration or do u mean expiration week? could i instead buy july calls but then i cant buy that many calls instead of june. then i have less time erosion. Also does anybody whos with does Interactive Brokers if they charge you for canceling or...

Well, I just thought of something! Instead of buying calls i can buy puts on the Vix! This way I get money even if volatility goes down because that means the vix goes down which means the put rises in value???:D :p By the way can you trade options after hours or pre market? I know I am...

hmmm is it because of the VIX, or the implied volatility of the option itself?

I bought a few calls last week when the market gapped down on friday at the open, now theyre barely in the green even though the markets are quite some higher than when I bought them, why is that?

How about oil at $73 from $67

Never lend money.:D You're not in kindergarten anymore

Here comes the PPT!:p

I am more scared of BP oil spill then north korea and israel war. I think the selling comes from partly real selling/shorting and hedging. Hedging because yesterday somebody made a huge bet that by june expiration we would be at EEM 30, that would be S&P 950? The bet happened at 3:30 pm and...
