---->were you watching the prem
right before the spx dropped???
i dont think you would have enough time to get off a trade (unless it is to try to get the bounce off of a sell)
but HL Camp does list HIS buy sell program points


if I had been on the phone, or had already loaded a buy screen on the internet......... I still wouldn't have had time to get a trade off, I don't think.
as I said, my attention was distracted but the streaming SPX was on my screen and I was discussing premmie with my broker, who was the caller.....

that one was def a whooooosssshhhh

BTW
I do have buy , sell, and fair value figures from the BBx and I've compared mine to Biryini and some others and they are all fairly close, or at least close enough for the girls I go with........gggg

it seems to me that when the prem has started to move(as in a big change up or down) its too late to be able to do anything on the spx or oex

i have been noticing that the prems on the options are bouncing a point on the end of the programs... for example sell program hits
put trades 20 1/8, 22 1/8, 22 3/8 22 5/8, 22 3/4, 22 5/8, 22 3/8, 22 1/4, 22 (now if you can buy or sell enough contracts, could this be profitable!?)

Lisa,

IBD has had this same ad on CNBC for several years at least about the "named after investors...that is a MAJOR mind set" .....think they cant afford a new commercial!

The only one I remember seeing is that seminar setting where they all say they are millionaires using IBD.. And the last guy says "Investors Business Daily.. buy it, use it and profit" Get tired of that one..
