  1. Did you sell AH? or do you have to wait till the markets open on Friday.

    i ended up no taking the trade, i wasn't going in heavy anyway, glad I didn't. I'm really surprised by the market action, I'm very interested to see how it closes tommorow; i think GOOG is leadership for the market. Worst case would be a gap off and it sells off all day, if you look at the action in the stock the longs have been individuals buying and the sellers have been selling size, so I think its individuals who are buying and institutions that are distributing, thats why close tommorow will be interesting. If it gap fills that really wont be good.

  5. Oh.....quick question IV_Trader.

    Options can not be sold or bought in AH or pre-market, is that correct?

  10. Where do you get the option quotes at this time? Or are you taking the GOOG stock price in AH and subtracting the option strike price?

    I guess this would be accurate since they expire tomorow and have no time value left.
