    She probably would have received much more than measly $800,000 had she allowed to sue them in court. In either case, those idiots at Pinnacle were either lying to her or had a very incompetent team of analysts.

  5. simplest concept in options is , selling a cc could either lose you the stock or cause you to but back the call higher

    in a roth , she might not have had the cash to do the latter, but still.

    you really think they LIED to her about such a simple thing?

    that would be like your Crypto advisor telling you that the string of worthless digits had value, or that uncle sam friedman insures it againt loss

    If she signed the proper paperwork, then the large print givith and the small print taketh away.
    Buyer beware, right J-Mo?
    Never sign something you don't understand or never even read, unless you are a congress critter or in the senate, then fuggum, that's just taxpayer problems. I got to get my hair did. Toodles.

    Did you even bother reading the article you posted? Let me spell it out for you.

    "At a subsequent meeting with two representatives of Pinnacle and her Schwab broker, Fernbach stated that she did not want to sell any Apple shares or risk losing any [and] the representatives allegedly assured her that a proposed laddered covered-call writing strategy would not risk her Apple stock."

    Does she have PROOF of that? Video, Audio, written documentation?
    Allegedly is the lawyer's wallet padder deluxe.
    If her paperwork on file authorizes them to do what they did, then any verbal changes "are not worth the paper they are not written on", to butcher a saying.
    Them boys are giving "salesmen" a bad name, a consumer could confuse them with con men, just sayin. Oh certainly mam we can ASSURE you that this idea is not half baked, no, it is Completely baked. Would you like to order some desert now? How 'bout we freshen up that wine spritzer. The weather is just wonderful this week. How's Trixie? By now. Yes it will be the best move you can make, trust us, we are pros. It's what people pay us for. It's how we provide value to our clients. Watch your step, your car is waiting. Good Bye.

    Man, I thought you were smarter than this.

    You think arbitrators are doting idiots? :confused: They're usually made up of retired judges. They don't just second guess what might have been.

    Although the qualification varies by states, this is more or less the case for most.
