Are we talking pure SPX options here or Options on the Spooo itself?
Just wondering.

Tom,
well I WAS doing fantastic on those calls <gggggg>....perhaps when the lunch crowd returns ??

Schwab is really tempting because I'll be in SF in a few weeks - and I've always wanted to have an excuse to hang out in their lobby when I was there. and they have so many offices everywhere - a real plus if you're traveling

Yes, fairly happy with my astro guru. and now you've got me reading Donald again too. Yes, we just MAY find that grail yet... we'll keep trying !

I was curious about it and so I just called them and they said that they do trade the SPX options. They asked me why I was asking and I told them that I had seen on the net that they don't and their response was "yes, absolutely"

I just said that I tried once and it didn't go through. I also said that I hadn't asked them why. I don't know what the problem was. Maybe it was me, however, my OEX options went through. I will ask my local office and try again when I start using real money again. Thanks for the info.

Best Wishes,

Bob

I suspect....not know for certain....but suspect, it goes back to the preferred trader/average joe question.

You always get immediate confirmation, Bob does not always get immediate confirmation.

I don't know what the story is either. But I can infer and I think I have a reasonable right to infer.
