The MM's were VERY stingy today! I placed a put spread order at .10 under the mid. Soon after that the mid went up another .10 or so and I still...
I was able to calm my emotions yesterday and not force any trades. The longer my order went unfilled the more anxious I was feeling about...

That is the hardest part for me to overcome, the missing out feeling. I tried getting into the 1120/1130 put spread earlier but couldn't get...
XSP starts trading today (mini SPX options). I know there has been some chatter here and on other boards about them but I haven't paid that much...
My thoughts exactly! I think the constructive criticism of this group is the best part. Anybody can throw out a real or potential trade and...
I got into a call spread at 1240/1250 for $.80. There was some good upward steam in the market today, that's for sure. I'm looking at put...

I closed my 1230/1240 today so I can take another swipe at some premium on the call side. The market obviously has a downward bias right now so I...
With the amount of time to expiration are you going to take another stab at a bull put spread Phil?
I was thinking the same thing! I was watching the futures this morning and I was sure the market would run under 1180 at the open and I would...
We closed just below the 1190 support on low volume. It will be interesting to see how the market reacts with the higher volume expected tomorrow...
Per Bloomberg: "Program buying kicking in shortly before the close..." That last half hour or so was wild! I stepped out of the office for a...
I'm looking at the 1240/1250 but it makes me a little nervous as 1245 was a resistance point not too long ago. But now we are getting close to...
I was able to get out of my 1260/1270 call spread at $.10 earlier today, granted my spread is much closer. Late last month I closed a 1280/1290...
