if you do actually trade options .. you know that when trading indexes a person is more likely to get a good order fill and easier to leave the trade

for example yesterday

TSLA put in morning- it tried to get filled during the morning the low was like 1.57 - i got in at 2.09
this change in price happened within 2 minutes all the while i was trying to get a fill.

then when i left the trade - i tried to get out during the huge dip but could not get filled at all i had to wait till it started to reverse and go up before i could exit the trade.
the high at that time was 4.30 but it only happen for like a few seconds .. i could have gotten out at 4.00 - 405 but thought it would pul back more .. it started to have strength in ADX DMI so i bolted didn't get close to high of day on that put. trade ..

theoretically i could have bought at 1.57 and sold at 4.30
but no way i would have gotten either the fill in enter or exit of the stock option

Today SPY was sitting in a narrow range between 242.30 and 242.42 for 15 minutes .. the PUT option was between .34 -. 31 for 15 minutes .. it got in at .32 which was the ask for at least 5 -10 minutes .. before SPY started to retreat


Roy i am certainly not here to impress you ..
you can do whatever you want ..

I just find it offensive that you question my trades this is imperfect with posting .. on here i do it out of habit now .. almost like i don't want to jinx myself by stopping .

I certainly could question the timing of your postings and your trades but i choose to believe you actually do them .
