This is such a quiet forum... is anyone here? I've been trading commodities options for a couple months now, and made a healthy profit (some would call a "killing") on heating oil futures. What an exciting market! Now I'm looking at trading options on stocks. Does anybody do this with BMO InvestorLine? I'm just looking at getting my account set up to trade options soon. One term I'm not familiar with is what an "opening" or "closing" order is. Anybody? Also, do _all_ contracts traded on the ME correspond to a delivery of 100 shares? I watched Nortel dip under $95 and bounce back to $107 within three days. Not bad, over 12% gain in three days. Compare that to the $110 December call options on NT that I've been watching: $7 to $12 during the same period, or over 71%. I just couldn't trade options on my account during all of this, so I sat back and watched it skyrocket. I need to participate in the market. Too much excitement not to have a part in it. Ben
