<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>I need some real basic info about options.
Reading some of the arguments, about using options instead of stops, on the
forum recently has sparked some interest with me. I think I have a grip on
intrinsic and time value, puts and calls, strike price etc. My question is how
does one calculate the price from the quote. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2> Eg; July sugar 550 Call is
qouted at .12. How do I translate that to my cost?</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>Thanks for your help - anyone.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>heres my 2 cents worth, and is the
simplest form of trading I have come across yet</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2> its where the market OPENS, price trades UP or
DOWN , then comes back to the OPEN</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>and in most cases carries on in that
direction,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2> like anything its not 100%, but it happens with high
consistency, to be tradable,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>the trade gets evev better when the TOP or BOTTOM price
range is not to far from the open, </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>one can place ones STOP LOSS just ABOVE or BELOW the high or
low for a LOW RISK trade, and also one is usually able to get out at your price
should the market turn, so depending on the market, one place an order AT
or X ticks above or below the open, as soon as the trade goes your way, u can
than move your stop to your entry and so on, depending on your
style</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>of course this is for daytrading, and like anything else, NOT
APPLICABLE during FOMC meetings and the like , </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2><FONT color=#000000>I </FONT>know u experienced traders are
shaking your heads, nothing knew here, granted, but it is simple (no)?, it does
work, and maybe someone starting off will have 1 more thing to look for
THETAS and all I have say on the topic, I did say it was simple, look at your
inta- charts</FONT></DIV>
