go into the spread trader.. thats what you need to do... then just punch in CL.. specify the months.. and how many months you wanna see.. IE 1 month is nov/dec dec/jan etc etc.. two months is those plus Nov/jan dec/feb etc etc..

Cool, thanks.
 
oh and by the way.. you can't get into alot of options directly adding tabs in the options trader.. put the symbol in the main window.. then right click and pick options trader.. thats the only way i can get the vix options to show up..
 
goog on the radar.. perfect huge event gone wrong.. lots of moving positions around.. pricing all over the place.. no one knows whats next.. looks great for a opex trade..
 
my dog got out.. got picked up by the pound.. completely ruined my last hour opex trade.. i still went in and out twice at the close..
 
+ BOT 1 FB OCT 26 '12 19.5 Straddle 2.43 USD SMART OCT 23 15:56:14 OptTrader 1.38 null

seemed expensive at the time.. and thats kind of why i bought it.. hard to price risk with no earnings history..
