I trade options every week , I would like to day trade them, options are moving way more then 20% a month, unless you're playing the way out of the money options, their moving 20% a day goog ,appl ,ebay amln, even jrcc can get you a double if you catch it right , how about rimm, hov, some of these trade great all day long, I'm not sure what options you're trading but 20% a month is no way gone away
heres a few options charts, i don't know what it used to be like but theres plenty of money making left to be had goog 510s went from 3.70 to 5.40 to 4.70 and back to 5.20 in the last half hour, aapl 95s 2.80 to 3.60 back to 3.30 aapl 100s .85 to 1.30 and this is just today aapl 90s 6.10 to 7.20 back to 6.60 now 6.80 http://i10.tinypic.com/48qaqza.gif http://i1.tinypic.com/3537ceg.gif http://i1.tinypic.com/2s9en1w.gif http://i18.tinypic.com/2qd5uzp.gif http://i3.tinypic.com/2mpld3d.gif http://i1.tinypic.com/2i9nkaf.gif this is going on everyday ,every month amln last week was trading at .13 on the 40 jan calls it ran to 2.75 on friday thats 2100% just my opinion but i think theres no better way to make money in the market then options, are they risky, you bet, but for guys who who don't set stops they can be the safest thing, you have a stop in when you buy, you have a preset risk, you have to do your homework like anything else but the days of making money in options is far from over
heres the amln options chart and a 20day and 1 year price chart its a beautiful thing http://i16.tinypic.com/2jdff9z.gif http://i10.tinypic.com/2rgf56p.gif http://i12.tinypic.com/4cldufn.gif gotta go find something else that will do the same
heres some rimm options charts http://i18.tinypic.com/2sako6a.gif http://i14.tinypic.com/300hb2t.gif http://i3.tinypic.com/2zp4nc2.gif http://i16.tinypic.com/2urq8wp.gif http://i12.tinypic.com/2cxudk7.gif today rimm options are running calls are down puts up .65-1.60 .20-.60 1.25 to 3.40 9.20 to 13.10 4.80 to 8.20 and the calls are dumping 10.00-7.80 7.10-3.80 3.40- 1.25 1.25 to .35 these are great moves in a day, sorry to bombard you guys with all these charts but I didn't realize options moved so well until I started trading the futures and upgraded my prophet charts for the ym, I found out I also got options charts with it and when I started looking around I couldn't believe the movement, guys are trading penny stocks at .35 in hopes they'll go to .45 on stocks that may not be a real company when if you time it right you can trade goog,rimm ,appl and get the same moves on safer stocks, I thought maybe somebody might like to see how these things move
gold, it gives real time futures and delayed options, not sure if the options are supposed to be real time but their not working, they should be moving in real time
