    I am selling AAPL 560 PUT for July 27 at this point. I believe AAPL at this level is very attractive.

    Option trade idea on YHOO

    90% of the time, the only active options for YHOO are the next months options. It seems that the investors don't want to gamble long term. Either they are covered calls or protective puts or just naked. Call 16 is the most active and PUT 15 and 16 are the most active. By the way, when I call...

    Option trade idea on YHOO

    Open interest does not tell you much most of the time. Just one crazy rich investor might increase the open interest and give you a false signal. I check open interest and then combine it with other info that I have and make my decisions

    Option trade idea on YHOO

    I see a hidden strong buying power on YHOO. It is outperforming S&P and NASDAQ today. I call it a buy now. Option trade idea is buying Call 15 and selling Call 16 for August for 63 cents.

    Option trade idea on YHOO

    Time : 3:19PM Tuesday YHOO is at 15.58. YHOO will announce Q report AH. My last minutes trading (gambling) idea is to buy YHOO 16 Call at 10 cents now and if YHOO pops above 16 (to like 16.20 or higher), short the shares and lock your profit. yesterday YHOO was traded AH at 16.62 after they...

    Facebook Crash

    I had a negative sentiment on FB but now I believe based on all the info that I have got (from chart, news,...) FB is in no short zone. I believe those who short at this level $27.60 range might suffer as FB might climb back to $30 range again. I don't see anything that rosey for FB but shorting...

    Yahoo gets a hottie...

    Yes she is a hottie and people are madly grabbing the shares at $16 AH. She worths $16. I am in heaven with my YHOO option play now. She would not accept the job if this Q earning is a diaster. Tomorrow YHOO will fly higher but I believe it might settle at 16 this Friday. Time to spend some of...

    Option trade idea on YHOO

    I meant today and by the way I never recommend just buying the underlying. Your chart compares the underlying. Please go back and check out my recommended trades. You would have made about 60% in less than a month (the age of this thread).

    Does anyone have a solution for avoiding or decreasing modification fees with IB?

    I think I know what was your algorithem. While(1) Monitor Bid/ask For (Buy) put an order to buy at (bid-0.02) For (Sell) put an order to sell at (ask+0.02) end of while This will be like chasing your tail.

    Does anyone have a solution for avoiding or decreasing modification fees with IB?

    I have mentioned this 624 times so far and it seems that I cannot be convincing. Check out my trades today. I cancelled 2 option orders today. I also had 6 option orders expired without going through. I paid $11.44 for 40 contracts. In Thinkorswim I had to pay at least 1.25 x 40 = $50. I paid...
