weekly options based off NT charts

November 11th, 2014, 09:15 AM

What is the best way to trade weekly options using NT. Through NT, I can connect to Ameritrade to get the stock, ie aapl. I load my charts (just as i did when trading ES). Then on another screen, I bring up think or swim and the weeklys. I want to try to papertrade using my alerts on the NT chart. Is this the best set-up to try to accomplish this?

Tracy,
Although I am not familiar with what you are asking, I have traded options for over 15 years and you might find something in one of these threads that you can use to become a successful trader in options.

As promised, this will be the first of several threads on trading options. I will include my very safe Diagonal Spread Trading (of which I have had no losses for a long time) and Adjustments in later threads.

Diagonals instead of verticals

Hi everyone..

I currently do about 6-12 vertical spreads a week on weekly options. And with those vertical spreads is a lot of theta decay happening on my long options. I was thinking about trying to decrease some of that by buying the Lon option a number …

Credit Spreads

Are credit spreads just a slight variation of vertical spreads? They both are directional trades but the difference is in net debit or credit to start right?

AAPL - Apple Inc

Alternate ways to trade AAPL. See the charts.

Good trading.

PS I am enclosing charts for AAPL on a .50 momentum bar chart and $105 call option on .25 momentum bar chart and 110 call option on .25 momentum bar chart.
I have marked the trades as I trade using the CCI indicator and confirmed by 2 green candlesticks and RSI.
The inverse for short trades or buying puts.
The entry is at the close of the bar above the arrows.
#1 entry at $4.46 to max of $8.50.
#2 entry at $3.52 to max of $5.20.
Hope it helps.
