Carl, it may be that it works with stocks such as INTC, MSFT or other very heavy traded options. In my case the underlying stock trades around 1 million shares a day but the option volume is in the 20 to 200 contract range a day.

As I posted before on this tread I sold some open put contracts as a hedge and witnessed the movement of the B/A price. it is a different story of an outsider hits your bid or ask. But if you place an order between the B/A you are starting to be the bid or the ask.

Happy trading
Haim

And yet it is the case right now with index options. As Goethe said a while back: the theory is dry, my friend, the tree of life is ever green.
