    Negative Theta Options over Weekend

    Many ISP’s offer dynamic IP service, in fact Comcast does it for free, has nothing to do with fancy technology or James Bond. You seem obsessed with Sellin’ as far as I am concerned that’s an issue between you two, makes no difference to me LOL As noted the similarities between you...

    Negative Theta Options over Weekend

    Where did I attack you? LOL You may beg all you like it makes no difference to me. Are you trying to imply that it’s difficult to have a dynamic IP set up? I don’t really know Sellin' I just picked up on something he posted, several days ago about the two of you. If it makes you feel...

    Negative Theta Options over Weekend

    English not a first language LOL funny that Risky has used the same line on several other threads. Of course then he posts in fluent English in many of these threads which he turns into an endless diatribe where he tries to prove to the anonymous crowd he knows something special, all while...

    NBBO is the National Best Bid / Offer. A term applying to the SEC requirement that brokers must guarantee customers the best available ask price when they buy securities and the best available bid price when they sell securities.

    SPY options problem at IB

    You are fully guaranteed the NBBO no matter who your broker is and which exchange your orders are routed to. If Ameritrade says otherwise I would move to someone else. Whom ever posted that SPY was not fully electronic was wrong, the SPY is fully electronic and part of the NBBO. In the...

    CBOE entry/exit price shell game

    X is the symbol associated with the Philly exchange. Just so happens their systems are second only to the ISE. If you had actual proof its then your fault for not bringing that proof to the proper people at your brokerage. Since you're a retail trader you always get the NBBO, if your bid or...

    Pros seldom buy options?

    Selling options does not have to be about time decay, nor does it have to be anywhere near a neutral strategy just as buying options does not have to be about direction. I agree with beatingthe to a degree. Mostly it depends on what your needs are and your strategy is.

    SPY options problem at IB

    You get the NBBO no matter what exchange you send the order to. There is no advantage for any exchange to hold up an order since a simple check of the NBBO would give you the correct price. I dont use IB but there is no advantage for them to hold your order or give you a bad fill. On a side...
