Debra,
ThinkorSwim is comparatively cheaper than the others, though not the
cheapest. I have attach the website for interactivebrokers which shows
you the commission charges for all kinds of trade. Their option is flat
rate of $1/trade, no base charge. Isn't it great.
Best Regards

Freddie,
I use ThinkorSwim as a broker.  Their fee is $5.00 plus $1.50 per
contract.  I have not traded Options with them so that may not be
accurate.  Their website is
www.thinkorswim.com
I will have to look into your brokerage.
Do they charge $1.00 for 5 shares on stocks or do you have to trade in
blocks of 100 shares?

Debra,

I understand Don's comment, I don't do complex strategies yet as they are costly to do so. We need good option forcasting tools to predict the option direction in relation to the stock in an accurate manner, so that we can use simple strategy to maximize return with lower outlay.

Btw, which brokerage are you using, what are their commission charges. I am using Interactivebrokers , their commission is $1 per trade, no hidden costs. This allows me to test trade at much lower cost compared to other brokerage firm who charges far more.

Best Regards

Freddie Ng

Freddie,

I might add that Don does not feel the average person should do any other strategies than spreads, straddles, and buying/selling puts and calls.  He said you cannot compete with the professionals with the other strategies financially so you are wasting your money.

Some of the more exotic strategies are costly through commision when you have 4 or 6 different legs and whatever else.

Hi Debra,

Thanks, Don Fishback is indeed found in Metastock explorer and Expert advisor, I must be blind. However, I was looking for the Don Fishback in the drop down indicator, as I had seen in website, I saw Don Fishback cone superimposed on the stock chart. I want to see it graphically. So I need the formula that plots the cone for input to the indicator builder. See attachment below.

I ran the exploration on Don Fishback on some stocks, I have report that identify stocks with low volatility, quite interesting and I will probably go for more exploration on other stocks and pick a stock option to test it out.

I have heard about Optionetics, it seems that they are specialized in options. They use AdvanceGet to do the option analysis, have you heard of it. I also heard that if you have completed the course, they allow unlimited repeat of the course without additional fees. Are you planning to subscribe to Optionetics.



Best Regards

Freddie Ng

Hi Freddie,

Use the Don Fishback exploration and then read what he has within the Scan.  Maybe the formula is within the program.

The Probability Cones are not part of the ODDS scan for tradable Options, on the surface.  The principles are used but using Don Fishback's Exploration and the Expert Advisor are the specific parts of MetaStock I was speaking of.  Also, Option Scope.

I am learning about Options too.  I just don't feel Optionetics is the only way to go.

Good Trading,

Debra Ann
