6/22 update: Bananrino closed out his QQQ's Sept expiry straddle at the $130 strike today. Let's check pricing since I logged in what he paid. His calls are definitely a loser tho. Let's see. The calls traded all day between $12 and 12.50, the $130 puts have a range of ,,,actually, there is no trade in teh puts but the bid is at 1.72 so that's what he gets on a "no trade" day. He made .30 cents on teh one call contract and .35 on each of 5 put contracts, about $175.00. He covered his expenses on this trade. I didn't trade against his Q's trade as the Q's did not generate a new sell signal after he was already in. He put about $1800 at risk to make about $160 after commish. Definitely not "killing it" but at least he banked a winner for a change. :-) He also closed out the FB straddle. I'll check that next.
