    iplay... are you going to argue with the market too! should bode well for losing a lot of capital. try humility bro, it works best in the markets and trading. If you don't have the experience or smarts, or energy to do your own work, your own studying like I and many others did over many...

    If I KNOW How to Trade and Manage Risk, Why Can't I Do It When the Money Counts?

    what is Randy Howell's claim to fame so far as coaching traders? I would rather have George Soros or Richard Dennis than some charlatan; someone who has actual done it. This guy's website shows no credentials to understand markets.

    Ok Nitro. et. al. ..... look into your crystal ball guys. Do we fill this gap down this week, tomorrow or next month, or never. We have island (reversals) on many equities that comprise the indexes; hard to figure that won't be resolved. on the other hand st trends tend to last for more...

    Don't get upset... but are you a contrarian indicator?? Just a few days ago if I am not mistaken you were looking for a large sell-off. Now when we start down you are looking for the opposite direction. What is the basis for your view... "bullshit selloff" and "puppet master." Is that the basis...

    in the spirit of PTI - I'd give it a C++ My NDX and OIH puts were up almost 55%. Looks like more downside... but gotta check my dart board's fair value.

    collecting premium / cashing out

    maybe you don't get the point.... (although i respect your explanation) this is not about selling premium; it's about selling naked. Why not buy a lower strike put (front month or back month) - or leg in if and when you get an opportunity to create a decent R/R. Answer: greed coupled...

    collecting premium / cashing out

    no reason to sell puts naked... there is no "comfortable" price to own any stock. I think the past 11 years have taught us that (that is, taught the smart ones of "us"). I was around trading in 2000-2001. Any comfortable prices back then to own any stock? What about 2008-2009? Any quality...

    LOL Yep... that's about right! That's the best I can do at this level. Gaps above and below. No way to know which way is next. All I know is I have Nov18 125p on NFLX (entered at 15) and the POS is only down -2 today. What do I do. Sell premium at 80p strike, take profit or buy stock

    "see his option fall as much a possible..." So the put buyer wants his option to fall in price?! But what if it is a she. There are different rules for woman put buyers and male put buyers. Did you know that?! " LMFAO You really don't know yet you are playing with fire....?! What...
