    How do you know what strike price to buy?

    Great question. It's like asking a neurosurgeon "Hey man, how you did that 12 hour head surgery? Can you share in 30 sec max - I need all the details and why you did exactly like you did and not the other way? I may do it just as well as you did. In a couple of weeks. So just tell me...

    Independent Option trader

    Becoming a profitable private trader has about the same odds as becoming a pro football player with a multimillion contract and as for options chances to become a new pop star are more or less the same - yes you have to be THAT good and LUCKY. It is indeed possible but odds are slim to none. Sorry.

    The consequences of giving away the holy grail

    Three wins for "Best paper-trader in the world" in 2013, 2014 and 2015. Prefers paper-trading over real one, says trading in Excel gives an edge which is impossible in real trading. Considers trading with real money lame. Big fan of "Holy Grail", "Perpetual Mobile" and faster-than-light space...

    The consequences of giving away the holy grail

    So is it some sort of a virus marketing for another "Monthly 59.99 USD Option Alert Service or... only 99.99 for a whole YEAR!" or somebody just watched Aronofsky's "Pi" 59 times in a row and is having "Holy Grail" bout of epilepsy as a consequence? In case it is - please press STOP on a remote...

    But is it still possible to buy 1000 options for GPS for instance as a single lot or it is already a substantial position so that it will be sold in several lots?

    Can't fill large option orders for 5-10 minutes (IB paper-trading account)

    Sorry, there is obviously a misunderstanding - I meant 30-40K USD in options (around 1K options) 30-40K of options is insane for a retail of course. My mistake, sorry.

    Oh. Lol. I do indeed fit this profile though 30K-40K in options is not exactly a big trade, is it.

    Can't fill large option orders for 5-10 minutes (IB paper-trading account)

    Good day, fellow traders, I would like to ask those who trade large lots of options (on a buy side) - I'm talking about 1000 options at once for instance (not 1000s but a single thousand). I currently test IB TWS platform (paper-trade) and notice that when I send a market order (500-1000...
