Disliked{quote} Not sure what your exact question is, but most platforms calculate any loss or profit on current Bid/Ask price, so if you buy a CALL at $1.30 (your Bid price) and the current Bid/Ask is $1.10/$1.60, you will immediately show a loss of $0.20.....just an administrative calculation, it really means nothing, as you can put an Ask price of $1.40 and technically sell at a profit.

Stocks will be tamped down with ^TNX heading to 2.00 or higher. I probably try to catch a quick run like SPX Mon/Wed diag...., but will wait til Monday cards are shown a bit.{image}Ignored

DislikedIn the following: AMT Mar19 205 CALL @ $1.40 This is one of those that traded from $1.15- $1.65 about 20 minutes ago but Bid/Ask never changed, open interest never changed and it shows a low of $1.90. That is why I put in Wish List orders, because sometimes they get hit out of nowhere.....Ignored
