GOOG Oct strangle on the 18th, close the 19th.

I was curious, and looked at the commission schedule:

Canadian and American Exchanges
Option Price Commission / Contract
$0 - $1 $35 + $1.00
$1.01 - $2 $35 + $1.50
$2.01 - $3 $35 + $2.00
$3.01 - $4 $35 + $2.50
$4.01 - $5 $35 + $3.00
$5.01 and over $35 + $3.50

Forex, do you realize you can get much better rates elsewhere?

AZD

 

now this is the understatement of the year

 

elsewhere? I think pretty much anywhere.

$140 round trip is huge.

 

11:35 am

GOOG 626.60

600 put 6.40-6.60

650 7.60-.80

Dont rush to that dealer for the used Yugo just yet

 

WOW !!!

 

My trading buddy does that one all the time....traps google in a huge range to collect a buck or so..

 

Just got a fill at 7.50 on a 610/620/640/650 IC on the off chance that it goes nowhere.

I'm willing to risk $250.

Probably should have waited another hour and a half.

 

Good luck with it!

 

This position is still open, will update on Friday.

 

Not based on this trade I hope!

I have been looking for a perfect fade ever since BullzNBearz left the board.

I just sold the 550-700 strangle for $2.48.
We'll see.
