Someone sent me an excellent replication today in email. Anyone interested should send a large check, payable to cash. Thank you.

I can send a large check. Is 44" by 18" large enough? e.g. http://www.samedaysign.net/checks.htm

Yes, that just meets my minimum requirement for a large check. Please, no dry-erase checks.

Did you trade the replication Riskarb? Volume at 1200 strike today was over 54k contracts. Too much of a coincidence, so i figure if it's not you, then, who could it be? LOL!

Your initial margin is lower than that of a naked position, right? How much is it per contract? I am trying to calc. the ROR.
