Sorry, yes the SPX.

I know I should know this, or I shouldn't be trading... But my positions are listed on my positions page, but the list of April 16 options are not on the options page. It's like the Monday after expiration, and they're gone. Thankfully my positions are OTM spreads expiring worthless, but...

Hey hey, there's one thing I do right! I read it several times to try and make sure it's what I want to do.

That whole thread was a great read, thanks!

Thanks a lot Frank, forcing me to admit more ignorance... Liquid options, UL's? Anyone feel like holding my hand and explaining these two terms? I'll take a stab at liquid options: options with greater volume? UL's? Don't know... (I know what you're thinking...geez, this guy...

I think we have a teachable moment here... I am not familiar with the term "taking the natural". I looked it up on the internet but did not find anything. Could you, or someone, explain what that means? Thank you.

So I've placed several orders this morning and am not getting filled, even though I see the spread trading at a greater spread than my my limit order. I thought that all lesser limit orders must be filled before the spread can increase? For example, one of my orders is for 10/10 contracts for...

Thank you.

Shouldn't the expiration be Apr 1? Mar 31 is a Thursday.

I'm a little surprised the matching thread in T2W was locked. Did HC get wiped out by the Japan situation?

Thank you for taking the time to help me. Arnie

Hmpf, I was kinda wondering if a person could do that, stacking cards... I currently am running an ATI X1900. I don't know if there is another slot to accept another card, I'll have to check that out. Thank you.

So I'm late to the party as usual... I'm finally using 2 monitors and it's great. I'd like to run 3 monitors, for flight simming and I trade options on indices. The local pc store kid recommended the ATI 5750. I see them on ebay used for around $100. Is this card OK? Thank you, Arnie

I was having a GREAT January, not 16% but well over 10, then those darn Egyptians started squabbling and I "got my hat handed to me", to use an old saying. Wiped out all of January's profits and a little of December. What ticks me off the most is that it was from a position I put on only the...

Edited for a few mistakes... Click on the "Trade" tab. Click on the "Options" tab. Click on the "Spread" tab. Click on the type of spread you want, vertical call or put, or calender call or put. Select "Buy To Open", "Sell To Open, "Buy To Close" or "Sell To Close". Enter the number of...

Click on the "Trade" tab. Click on the "Options" tab. Click on the "Spread" tab. Click on the type of spread you want, vertical call or put, or calender call or put. Fill in the blanks for underlying symbol, type of option, strike price and number of contracts. Then select "Net Credit"...

You initiated the negative tone. I offered my age and employment status as a possible reason for my reluctance to enter a position. You interpreted it to be bragging and belittled me. Which makes you the asshole. Tell me, do you tire of asking people if they want to try one of your...

Ferrari's? pffft,

Stay humble, I've just been lucky. Stay humble, I've just been lucky.... I've taken a couple positions every week and no losers, doing great. This week I'm sitting on a 1220/1210 vert put position, looks like another winner. Maybe this should be in the psychology section, but I find...

Hmph, Brady looked human today...almost disinterested...no fire...the whole team actually, no sense of urgency. I think we can look forward to two great games. Obviously I hope the Pack wins, and the other game...don't really have a preference...I'll say Jets, I can't stand Hines(sp?) Ward.
