      Sorry to hear that bulltrap, that would be so irritating. I have 2 futures accounts with TD and fortunately never had a problem with them. FWIW, as far as I know brokers only go off what you tell them when it comes to different ...

      Solid plan there Vorenzd! One thing I really like about real estate is you can turn it into cash just by getting a mortgage. That way, if you find yourself in a situation like March 2009 when equity prices were mindbogglingly low you could get 4% ...

      I explored #1 and came back with some results, but the gammas are all 0 or .01 for atm options. When they're uniform like that the results are basically in line with open interest. What you get is more of a max pain type of calculation which isn't ...
