Well, the Hawaii mafia is ready to go but ETrade isn't.
Currently stuck between dealer sell walls until they reduce and go away.
Need over $175 to stretch, at which point dealers will participate.

Yeah, this is similar to Monday, Mar 11th. Another telltale sign of DCB is the flat price action at $168 for most of the day on Friday.
I wish I could understand half the things these people write, a lot of it it gobbledegook to me
You're probably making more money than them....
I debated waiting until CPI on Wednesday to deploy all my CCs, but I'm so worried about a dropping SP that I just sold them all this morning. I hope I don't regret it.
The way you ace at trading you can skip those posts, you don’t need them!
Yeah, well, hasn't been very good recently!!The way you ace at trading you can skip those posts, you don’t need them!

helpmeeeeeeeeee
if i have 5/17 -p780 and it gets assigned this Fri, i immediately sell the stock on Monday and buy LEAPS, correct?
assuming this cuts my capital cost by half, this means i can buy 2 LEAPS and then sell 2 Straddles (and later on 4 CCs) for each -p, AMIRIGHT?
one -p wheeled into 4 CCs AND 10 premiums seems too good to be true
just trying to understand LEAPS mechanics

Seems I lost my touch to fear. At $175.30's earlier I was hovering over STO a bunch of -C185 5/17 @$1.00, and it went all the way to $0.998 and I canceled it in at the last second in case it ran more and I'll regret opening them. Then the MMD.
Now I have neither
(And trying to learn a new platform on TOS Mobile; I feel very disoriented, will take a few days to feel at home with it. Shame TD-Mobile app couldn't carry over. Was perfect for my needs.)
@tivoboy Can someone buy the TD-App assets, say for use at another broker, or will it just be buried in the tech cemetery of good apps?
My guess is that TD mobile apps are gone. You can always setup a paper money trading account to work on learning the app - not your current account. I did that many many years ago to see how alerting worked, to immediately re-create or create orders to execute even some more complicated rolls, etc. Might be a thought to try outside normal hours.
I’m still going to bet that within a few days, week you’re going to like more some of the direct access, configurability - you can customize even the mobile apps what’s along the ribbon, onscreen, your charts and graphs, etc. Much more so than the regular TD apps.
It's giving me a slight headache, for sure, but sounds about right... but what LEAPS would you be looking for? As always, when you write against longer dated long positions, be careful with the Delta movements if they go ITM, you can get underwater quite quickly
