  1. The strategy is typically worth 8 to 20k month, on certain days, there is a much greater edge, today happened to be one of the days when everything lined up and gave me confidence to do the strategy for size. (Next quadruple witch will probably worth only $1000 or so, just my guess! )

    might as well post my mid-day now. I guess you could call this an 'average' morning as of late. most of my day is an opening trade on AX.....

    I put out more than twice as many stocks today as usual, but smaller size on the second list.

    I've traded openings almost daily for 3 1/2 years now and this is the 14th triple/quad witching I've participated in. My best three days have come on a witching day. The other 11 were average and non-eventful. So you just never know, but ya gotta be in to win.

    occasionally. Not a main strategy, but I'll put on a good spread if I see one. I've got a few regulars I watch. I don't trade pairs in conjunction with opening orders though.

  7. I beleive your numbers. I think you, Eric and mnx are pretty honest. I am the first on a thread to call bullshit too. So congrats on your day.
