Mike AndersonParticipant
Do you always post when you get a fill on a new position – did you get filled on this one?
Mike AndersonParticipantI didn’t get any notification on closing and I don’t see this trade in the results list. Did anyone make a profit on this one?
Mike AndersonParticipantI haven’t seen any updates on this one – did you get filled on this or was it never executed?
Mike AndersonParticipantQuestion on adjusting – If SPX starts to rally and my short call gets to around 20-25, I buy a call to cut my net delta in half. Now after a day or two, SPX starts dropping back towards the center of my IC. When do I, or do I ever, consider selling that call used to cut the deltas?
Mike AndersonParticipantYeah, I see it around .30 now, but it spent most of the morning at .20 – .25. Was hoping I could get a fill at around .30. Now I’ll try for .35.
Thanks,
MikeMike AndersonParticipantThis is more of a order fulfillment question, but I’m trying to close my bull put spread of my IC because the mid-price is around 0.20. But even with an order at 0.3 I’m not getting filled even after several hours.
BUY +10 VERTICAL SPX 100 15 JUL 16 1860/1850 PUT @.30 LMT
Is this common, or do I have an issue with my broker?
Mike AndersonParticipant“You can see it on TOS chart:
.SPX160715P1870-.SPX160715P1860”
Hey Igor, I didn’t realize you could chart an option spread on TOS charts. That’s awesome. Is there a shortcut to getting to this or do you type in the full text as you show above?
Mike AndersonParticipantThanks Igor, makes perfect sense, if your’e ahead of where you expect to be get out and start a new position.
Mike AndersonParticipantSo, Igor, you got any hard and fast rules about exiting prior to your original goal of 50% profit? 25% for 6 days sounds like a good idea to me. In fact, I did almost the exact same thing after about 8 days last week.
Mike AndersonParticipantThanks for the feedback – confirmed new positions are on the main page – got it.
Mike AndersonParticipantHey Igor, did you get filled on this trade?
