My Options Play

I think that Multioption had a good track record and that's why he took his present challenge. I asked about his win/trades ratio and about his average win / average loss because I was curious to calculate his optimal sizing.

You really like to add salt to his wounds, don't you? His current position bought @ $4.50. Another typical Multioption GAMBLE.

It appears you are mocking Multioption after the AX trade.
 
Quote from Maverick74:

Iceman, be careful with that call skew. I always like to tell guys to avoid buying calls on sharp selloffs because you are paying for the skew. If CME does start to rally, the skew will flatten as you approach the strike. In other words, you are really fighting an uphill battle here. You would have been better off to sell the put skew to create the long deltas.

thanks for the suggestion-

CME

bluehorseshoe loves CME

gentlemen-- suggest you start your engines and wait for the flag to enter calls on this one - I believe a st bottom is being put in this week. Remember - it's been a falling knife - so be nimble and don't get burned on a candlestick! :D

I am long some cmj LL (dec 360c) - looking to spread - only Q is what strike and how many.

>>>looking for target of 355 by Friday <<<


- then we'll review the tape etc.- maybe it can trade back to 365 - thereafter

downside risk- 10-12 points

what's the price on CME? :D

Ok--- due to popular demand I'm starting a newlsetter-

b.t.w. I scratched the 360c and bought 350c near lows- (thanks Mav74)

avg price = 8.10

come on - !!!!

EBAY


keep an eye on EBAY for a long entry - perhaps today's low was decent level- although I'm trying to decide if they will seek to pin it back near 42.50 -

my gut --- it will trade <45

look at the large volume on xba XI

one more

PD


watching PD carefully now for a short entry---

been trading it off and on since 78- now I think it time to start "looking" for a entry into back month puts - looking for at least a 10-12 point drop soon

my entry level will be 147-149

Quote from hajimow:

Another good trade:
Sell naked PUT XLNX 25 Jan
If XLNX goes up sell naked call 30 Jan to make a spread.

another "good" trade-- ??? :eek:

yes-- but we're looking for some >large< moves- like in CMe where the calls are now up 55% intra-day

your suggeston has a limited profit and unlimited risk - what if XLNX had gapped up today 4 points on the raising of guidance - or whatever they did AH - yeserday?

- what might happen to your short front calls IF it traded to 35! Unlikely I know- but "what if" ?

regards

I try to avoid risky trades with high profit. My trades are also risky but less risk (I believe). If you don't want unlimited risk, you should not sell naked options. Do you sell naked options? I am sure you do.
I can conclude that each of us are targeting a specific stock and we are all happy!!! You might not be comfortable with my trades and I might not be comfortable with yours. uninvited_guest is criticizing Multioption trades while he is quiet on his almost expired AMD 25 PUT. I don't blame uninvited_guest fo his trade. Actually his trade got A+ from the other traders in a thread that he had specifically on that option. I like to see the return rate at the end of the month. I will post mine anyway.
