I understand your point so let me add a little bit. GE is "the" stock I follow and have for years. I never said and am not saying its "risk free" or anything like that. I am saying that for me the risk vs reward is correct for me to take the trade at 44 cents a contract last friday...

I will throw my 2 cents in the middle just for another point of view. I would argue that its actually ok to write naked if you keep the quantity of any one stock low enough that in the case of a TMA (I watched that one fall 50%+ today so sorry for your loss) your still not hurt. for...

never ever ever ever ever allow your account to face a margin call with IB I have read countless horor stories and have in the past experienced one or two myself. You WILL lose money and it wont be pretty and you will lose control of your account until IB is happy again. when it comes...

I did one more 800 share trade (1600 total in and out )and another for 400 each way via Tradestation to work towards my 5000 needed. If I do 5000 per month the plateform and screener is free. Pretty good deal. I did 5000 shares on the money for the month. As of yesterday I increased my...
