  • @DJ-st4rs
    @DJ-st4rs 2 года назад

    Thanks for the video. One question might sound like a newbie question, since you bought them back, does this mean you still have a position open on an option for that month that will expire or is it "closed closed" in other words, there are no open positions. If you buy the option, you are taking control of it at the difference from when you sold them, so does it mean that the option is still out there & you could theoretically still make money on that "bought bck option" if something happened in the market? Thanks!

    Hi Markus, I have a couple of questions... 1) Do you use TWS's Option and Combo presets to specify Profit Taker/Stop Loss values? 2) Do you ever trade SPY? I see that a lot of people advocate trading it because of its low volatility and tight trading price range. Ironically, I recently opened an Iron Condor for SPY and ended up losing money on the Call Credit Spread aspect of it. I guess the market has a bullish bias and I should have placed my Call strikes further out. Still, I didn't expect SPY to move as high as it did. Otherwise, what stocks/ETFs would you recommend trading for someone with a small account that's just starting out?

    • @rockwelltradingservices
      @rockwelltradingservices  2 года назад

      Hi there, lots of questions :-)
      1.) No, I don't use TWS Option and combo presets
      2.) No, I don't trade SPY. Low volatility = low option premiums.
      3.) I don't like Iron Condors. It's just not my trading style.
      4.) I like to find the stocks and options to trade using the "PowerX Optimizer". You might have seen me using it on the channel.
      Does this help? 👍

    • @rockwelltradingservices
      @rockwelltradingservices  2 года назад +1

      In this case, the broker will close your position.
      So if you bought stocks, he will sell them.
      If you sold options, he will buy them back.
      Is this making sense?

    • @rockwelltradingservices
      @rockwelltradingservices  4 года назад +5

      Yes, it is but you need to do it "manually." Here's how it works:
      Let's say you bought an option for $1.00 and you are planning to make $2.00, i.e. 100%. In this case, you would enter a LIMIT order to sell the option at $2.00 as. GTC order (good til cancel). As soon as somebody is taking the other side of your trade, the order gets executed and you realize your profit.
