I suggest you guys who already posted thye positions - show your slips here upon the expiration. I can figure that out too as incidentally the oil trade figures were same - but it would be helpful if you did.

I will accept you trade signal for now, but in the future any signal that is on a shorter than 1 hour expiry time won't be accepted.

Long and medium term signals are ok even if you few minutes late. As long as the Covers can provide a viable solution on that as twitter or RSS feed - that would be ok too. Otherwise  - so far you'd have to be alert.

Ok Mavin. I'm not going to apologize for winning the trade but I'm sorry I inconvenienced you or anyone following me. I understand what you're saying and agree 100%.

I again detect the liquidity providers fencing off the traders from taking a call option on Oil which has dropped to the support level from which it can only go up and up to 99$ and they have added 2$ to the current price if you're taking the long term as tomorrow position. You remember how we cashed on that the last time. I am in!!!

Thanks to Bo for drawing my attention that the CALL is for 1 month from now which I was aiming at tomorrow. What's done is done and I will leave it as it is as it's even a safer trade like this.
Thanks buddy Bo!
