S&P 500 & Nasdaq Analysis and Trends

[Jerry Medved]

BULLarkey,

from the looks of it, you have the Quantity entered as 10, Paid as 3.20 and commission (not shown on the picture) as 60 got +BDHEB. QT does not handle the x100 factor for options, so it calculates that you paid $32 + 60 (92) for the options and values them right now at 3.50 x 10 (35) thus the big loss..

If you want QT to correctly value the options, enter 100 times the actual # of contracts you bought into the # of shares field on the Portfolio Edit screen. If you change the quantity to 1000, it should calculate correctly
