Blalsher - I'm a novice but there is a trade called the 10 AM trade on days price gaps and runs. Today, I should have entered a limit order to go long at the high plus a couple of cents before 10 AM. On QLD that price was about 23.40. As I type this, price is 24.10 - a very nice gain. I did not take the trade but it seems to work pretty well under these circumstances.
Can you tell me what does TYPE - S or TYPE - NS mean for 2 options of same strike price, such as eev calls at 80 --
