I am with you on the RAD calls. Hang in there as things can change quickly.
Do you have enough in your account to roll them a week if you have to?
Let me know what you have and I can help you figure it out.
Others will have Ideas too.
Global is very good with Options and listen to him.

Dang. That sux. I expected RAD to hit big by now as well. Hate to see u down so much.

Fire up that spreadsheet and keep watching "the regulars" like XLK, XLE, GDX, and get a good feel for them.

Practice with calls and puts and try to stick with intra day trades to avoid some of the variables.

It's all about the chart...

We are def with you on the RAD situation dude

Best way I've found of paper trading options (good for shares too)
is the List / Watchlist feature on the TD platform. The one you guys use in the States is different, so I don't know what it's called.
But you plug in the calls/puts you 'bought', number, price etc and it's pretty good at updating in real time the changes and, hopefully, gains.

It's a learning process, I'm still not doing nearly as well as I would like to be, but I'm plugging away when I can

TDameritrade Think/Swim has a papertrade account if that's what you're looking for.
