[MEDIA] Perhaps read this, and then reconsider your statement. Because this is someone who actually managed to execute the strategy I am talking...
I appreciate your input. I have not been a customer with Tastytrade for very long, in fact I opened the account in January and funded it last...
You make some good points there. Regarding the spread I was referring to, it most definitely was in profit, and the prices were correct. I have...
Yes. And no matter what price I set my limit to close at, it would not fill.
Also I forgot to mention, since Tastytrade have taken such an approach, I'm not sure whether I care to trust them with any further deposits. Their...
I suspect the mid price was accurate. I could have set a limit to open or close at the natural price, but that would have required more margin and...
Yes. For the NDX trade, I sold a credit spread deep ITM at 15,700/15800 strikes where I was filled at 99.95. As I mentioned this required margin...
No. I attempted to open the spread for a credit of that width, but no fill. I attempted this same strategy with different strokes, same result....
Oh dear. Seems you are a bit obsessed with a previous post I made, asking a very genuine question. Paper money on Thinkorswim allows you to open...

Well, I simply wanted to test the platform and my strategies before committing a larger sum towards this. I'm glad I didn't now, as Tastytrade is...
Hello all I have recently opened and funded an account with the Tastytrade brokerage. As some will know, they are a relatively recently...
https://www.cboe.com/tradable_products/sp_500/spx_options/specifications/ Well, here are the official specifications for the SPX from the CBOE...
How very constructive. Perhaps all your answers are exactly the same too. Move on.
Yes, but the ES is in relation to futures isn't it? The SPX which is the options, apparently does not have any position limits.
On index options such as SPX, RUT, NDX, DJX etc there are no position and exercise limits in effect. Most brokers still have some kind of order...
I use limit orders always. Never market orders.
Yes, I have actually traded as many as 200k option contracts with TD in simulation mode. I will attach trades I did today (using position of 200k...
Ah I see. I did not realise that prior to now. Certainly with TD Ameritrade, one can send an order with a max number of 99,000 contracts, and...
