by the way-- I think I urged all "My Options Play" thread readers to get into BBY calls when it traded down to 43.80-44-- I haven't looked yet today but is BBY higher??? :eek: :eek: WOW-- it is -- almost FIFTY DOLLRS! (of course what isn't hgher?) :D OK--- lets sell calls short--...

bro--- one day -- not too far away--- you are going to take all that risk inherent in selling FIFTEEN naked puts for a mere 25 CENTS--- and you are going to get hammered by the Black Swan. Mark my words what is the reward in selling NAKED anything for 25 cents unless your account is...

Don-- what other tables do you play on FT? ((you play with dustin dirksen??) :D :D icE :cool:

Rearden Metal--- I am also in Chicago area-- SW whre do you play-- what casinos? also do you know of any local games looking for players- ? thanks for getting back to me (or- PMing me) Ice :cool:

I'm gonna be a sucker and buy (average in) IMCL Jan 35c @1.05-1.25 with a mimumum target of 36 on underlying

its hard to type all of that during market hours -- better sutied for IM or phone

IMCL suggest: put IMCL on radar screen

b.t.w - judging by the pricing on BBY calls and puts- it's my "belief" that BBY is still headed northeast ----- into next week and perhaps right up until its earnings release on Dec 13th

to me "anal" means someone who looks for prefection in all things related to trading and the markets--- and like "ANALysts" and many quant geniuses-- are usually wrong since the obvious and well-known doesn't always pan out anyway-- even when the risk seems low--- !

anyone get into BBY calls when it was <.44? hit 46.85 today-- of course there WAS risk involved in the trade - :eek: hopefully no one bought LEAPS since they never make any money- -- that's what we hear ! :p Ice :cool:

anyone have PALM on their radar screen? There is a large gap from 9-23-05---- doubtful it will be filled soon-- but it could trade into said abyss -- perhaps to 30-31+ ! :D:D: only thing I don't like is how the Dec 30c did not budge much with today's decent move - of course now the vola is...

I also posted this as a follow-up on 11-03-05-- I said "16-17 also doable" what's today's price? yep it was risky--- up almost 40% in how long? by the way--- next time anyone on this thread finds any trade or investment without ANY risk-- please let the rest of us ---and for sure...

b.t.w. I entered these calls @.825

her's an example of cnms2 finding fault with a suggestion ((I happened to make)--- to buy OVTI March06 15c when they were -- 75-80c (I will post that recommendation later)-- and the stock was 12.30 -- check out he bid price on those calls "that were risky to buy now " according to...

with all due respect-- I'm sure you have more insight than 90% of the ET.com members - including (with all due respect) "cnms"! Personally I like your LEAPS strategy. --- a lot of guys on this thread apparently are theorists --- all theory-- like they read some book last year-- and now...

nitro-- that has been my 'theory' for a long time now- you just catching on?? :eek: nothing wrong with it IMHO- just that sometimes discusion become repetitive. best, Ice :cool:

in your example--- the margin will be a minimum of 10% of the underlying

i agree with online poker being too much (b.s.) "luck" -- assuming it isn't rigged and is totally random-

good comments cnms2 does Ace/King or do Ks or Aces "always" win in a poker game? Does 9/4 or a pair of 8s etc. always lose? Does a left-handed relief pticher always get the left-handed batter out in the bottom of the ninth! And so on-- Well---- I guess betting those hands just--...
