SPX Credit Spread Trader

I agree, but am still surprised we have not seen it yet.

I have an open order for MAY 1235/1245 @.60. The Mid got to .65 this morning but then turned. Tomorrow is another day....

You will get ur chance, the market can only use this same old "rate hike end" as an excuse to rally so many times and its probably just about almost there now.

65 points with 3 weeks left is close? Are we looking at the same chart?



Quote from rallymode:

I'd cancel that order, dont see how $.6 credit justifies being this close to the short strike on a 10 point spread.

i guess you read my post before i deleted it, i thought it was the call side, i read it 1335 and not 1235 sorry :D
 
The reason I am in this thread is because I agree with you completely. My original reference to Mike was with regards to his SPX trades only and the fact that he does put some of them on (for certain months) seven to eight weeks early.

I still watch the trades that he puts on because I've got a package subscription rate. If I drop his "letter", I don't save any money, so why drop it. But I haven't actually implemented one of his trades since July.

Quote from skdoyle1:

Just my opinion, but I subscribed for 1yr to Mikes newsletter, and I would NOT do it again. His trades all make money, but he doesn't teach anything about risk and money management, and the website interface is a real POS. He tries to con you to coming to his in person seminar for 1k to get all the advanced info, like how to shave off the mid. There is MUCH better information contained in this thread, but you do have to "work for it" here. Mike give you the trades on a platter.

I just called ToS and they said there is trading of e-minis from 5:00 PM to 6:30 AM. It's basically 24 hours except for those two short periods near the end of the trading day.

I don't think so Coach.

I'm really beginning to wonder just how many times we can rally with the "almost done" story.

Of course, they (and I'm not sure exactly who "they" are) have stepped it up -- now it's Yellin and Bernanke themselves who are selling the snake oil, direct to public...

Notice how each time we get less of an effect, pretty soon market wont care. I think the may meeting will be a key point in determing just how soon will that end come. Even if they stopped here, i just cant see this market going much higher.
