Here we go again. It’s just about option expiration Friday and it’s looking like the papermoney and my personal positions are all shaping up to be quite nice. I’ve also put out a few orders for a few new May positions, basically copying the current April ones and rolling them out. I’ll post the positions when the fills come in.
As I’ve started to trade the DIA(105.07 -0.02) and SPY(110.69 -0.14) products a little more, I’m finding that the per contract commissions at thinkorswim are starting to get very expensive. I actually killed a nice DIA(105.07 -0.02) trade this evening because the commissions knocked down the ROI. I’m on the hunt for another online broker that I can use to open up a secondary account to trade larger volumes; this will very likely end up being optionshouse.com
Anyhow, I’m still a huge thinkorswim fan and truly believe they have some of the best software in the business. I’ll do some more research prior to opening a new account… only time will tell.
