PBR, otoh, is da bomb.
as discussed ad nauseum above, PBR will jet up on a Neves victory in Brazil on 10/26. There are near-term and longer-term possible plays, the near-term calendar looks good, below. If we get a bounce Monday it could be easy to get in the calendar for net credit. It'd be important to get in as close to $0.00 debit as possible, because if Neves goes down, PBR will follow and the Nov calls might be near worthless.

good sector considerations
http://www.marketwatch.com/story/inv...4-10-10?page=2

gold did give up some ground today - not nearly as much as I had hoped - but the fact that it weathered well bolsters the bullish argument IF the USD is going to trend down. I will still be looking for a setup on GLD as discussed above.

{quote} cant do it solly... The Onion Futures Act (7 U.S.C Chapter 1 § 13-1) is a United States law banning the trading of futures contracts on onions. In 1955 two onion traders, Sam Seigel and Vincent Kosuga, cornered the onion futures market on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange. The resulting regulatory actions led to the passing of the act on August 28, 1958. It remains in effect as of 2012. (…) In the fall of 1955, Seigel and Kosuga bought enough onions and onion futures so that they controlled 98 percent of the available onions in Chicago. Millions...
Options or Onions make no difference, it is all about how you play your cards. Thanks of for this informative post. I am now looking forward to repeat this with tomatoes or cucumbers ................... don't like the smell of onions plus raw onions reverse the effect of whatever medicine you are taking.
