  1. Has anybody out there heard that the penny piolet program will soon been expanded to include an additional 75 underlying stocks/etf's?

    Yes, I heard about it.
     
  3. They are going to be expanding it to almost the entire listing of options. I believe at least all options that would fall under the A catagory.

  4. Are you Mark from the blog? I interviewed at group1 right out of school but never did get a position. I'm right near villanova, went to the penn/villanova game a couple weeks ago down at franklin field.
     
  5. I am Mark from the blog. That is cool I never worked in the Philly office only in NY and Chicago. I try to make my way out there as often as I can I love that area.

    Any good suggestions for new stocks to trade that have high volume but are remaining at nickel spreads? All the options I trade are unfortunately going to penny spreads, and I would much prefer to at least trade a couple of options at a nickel spread if my standard stocks are going to pennies.

    ELN, CAL, and UAUA are the only 3 on there that aren't going to pennies, but thanks for the help, I'll take a look at them. Anything else with some decent vol sticking to nickels?
