Somebody know, why I cant to trade some options exotic (ICE), metals (LME) in thinorswim? I can see options chain but cant trade them and cant to see risk profile How to resolve this trouble?
Not tradeable at TOS. Although I have no idea what product you are referring to in general. Calling something exotic doesn't help.
CC cocao, KC Coffee, CT cotton, SB sugar, OJ orange juice and other are not tradable. Or in what other platform will can to trade (paper or demo) this options so to see risk profile?
Those are not exotics. LOL. TOS has no interest in mom and pop trying to trade coffee options. It's a nightmare already getting people on ET just to understand the settlement procedures of SPX options. One guy on here wanted to launch a lawsuit against TOS because he did not understand index settlement procedures.
You could try looking up Barclays and Deutsche Bank and their exchange traded commodity products (ETPs), which are divided into ETFs and ETNs. JO is the most active one for coffee. You'll note most of them have cutesy names like MOO, NIB (cocoa), CAFE, etc. But do your research, usually there is a product that follows the front month only and another product that reflects a blend of the next several months. As noted by Maverick and others, some of the energy ETPs have been terrible investments with an almost guaranteed loss for buy and holders because of the roll. There is also credit risk with ETNs (the "N" stands for note), but with banks too big to fail, maybe that's not an issue anymore. P.S. if you've never traded coffee before, now is probably not the right time to start with full size futures and options contracts. The notional is getting close to $80,000 USD, ATM IV is 50%+, and margins have been jacked, for good reason. JO options might be a better place to start.
