From TDA
What is a day trade minimum equity call?
If your account has less than $25,000 day trading equity and is identified as a pattern day trading account, a day trading minimum equity call will be issued. Pattern day trader accounts that fall below the $25,000 minimum equity requirement should not day trade because doing so will restrict the account to closing transactions only for 90 days, or until the day trading equity is brought up to $25,000. Please be sure that any deposit made to bring the equity above $25,000 is in the account one business day prior to resuming day trading.Funds deposited in an account to satisfy a day trading minimum equity call must remain in the account for two full business days following the day of deposit before they can be withdrawn.
I hear ya. Thanks man.
Any opinion on DMND 24 or 25 calls?
Of course you can say what you want, and so can I. Your opinion is dumb as hell...
That's an ignorant thing to say, especially when you don't know how she died.
Gotcha...I thought they would at least give you a chance to wire those funds into the account, but I guess they play it on the safe side. That's good to know LOL.
Why would TDA close out the position that's in the money to begin with? Why wouldn't they just exercise it?
Amazing...how much did you put in on that one initially?
I wish I had the capital to do that LOL...
Thx UPB, got em @ .08!
ORCL gapping-my 26 W Calls should be looking nice today!
ORCL 26 W .24 x .27
I think so too. I got mine today @ .08!
ORCL W 26 Call .13 x .15
Typical, I buy and it drops LOL. Still expecting a rally on this stock and the market in general today or tomorrow.
In ORCL 100 (Weeklys) DEC4 11 26 CALL @ .08
IBM 185 W calls looking good here. Trying to get them @ .21 though.
DIE SPY DIE!!
Me and a couple friends might have to pay Santa a little visit.
DIE SPY DIE!
In SPY 123 puts @ .69
Nice call UPB! Made some green on this one!
ORCL gapping up
This week you think?
Grabbed a few ORCL 29 calls before close.
Grabbing RIMM 11.0 Puts @ .02 as a paper trade.
Amazing call UPB!!
DMND looks like it's ready to move up here.
I would think that if you were going to short sell a call/put, a low volume stock and the options would be best mostly due to the time erosion. A stock that doesn't move very much up or down on a daily basis would be great as opposed to one that has millions of volume each day. But again, I'm new to options so I'm going off my limited knowledge.
New to options, but it seems this is a pretty good strategy, especially on stocks whose options don't get much volume like KKD.
Thanks bro. I think EK is going to drop alot more next week IMO. If they do file BK, put holders will be very happy.
EK Dec 11 .50 Put .02 x .03
EK Dec 11 .50 Put going for .01-If for some reason Kodak goes into BK next week, or even if the rumor surfaces again, these will be worth ALOT more. This is all IMO. It's a paper trade for me.
Not a big bounce, but a bounce. This is a paper trade though, so I'm just going with my gut.
FIO Dec 30 calls look good here IMO
Buying AMR Dec $1.00 Calls now (On Paper)
Got some of those too. Should work out well for us...
AMR $1.06 New HOD
