The -7.50 and -80 is current P/L. The 20840 is the strike I purchased. I'm saying the market will close higher than 20840. The +30 and +40 the number of contracts purchased for that strike. The third column is the price paid per contract.
OK... so you currently have .... 30 contracts that you paid $81/contract for and 40 contracts that you paid 70.50 for? Is that correct? Is there a link where someone can look at these live without having an account?
Seems kinda like you are over exposed here, don't you think? 10.5k account, but almost 80% of your account on a single options trade.
Only temporarily. Closed out the 20840 when the market hit 20844(-490). Repositioned with the 20800. Running at around 50% currently.
I am trying to find your trades on the Nadex time and sales, i am struggling to find them, even though volume is very light on this exchange. https://www.nadex.com/sites/default.../20170313_timeandsales.pdf?0.9812691545190935 https://www.nadex.com/market-data
1. Today NDX is strong and DOW is weak. So if you want to bet up, bet on NDX instead of DOW. That way you get better odds. 2. Generally, bet up on an index that is up at the time of your betting, and bet down on an index that is down at the time of your betting . That way you get better odds. I have a betting Wall ST 30 under 20860.
So take the (20 contract) 20800 that you paid $69 per/contract for.... as long as YM closes above 20800 you'll make 20x$69 ($1380) off of that play? Pardon my unfamiliarity here if that is a stupid question.
