That OX screen looks neat. How did you do that? I can't seem to find the right place to go to set it up. I would like to have that on my separate monitor too. I am guessing that is in Xtend which I am playing around with now. Thanks.

Set up a Watch List with the symbols you want on that grid. Put them in the order you want them on the grid.
Go to Quotes and click on Streaming Charts. Wait for the chart to load.
In the upper right click on Detach.
On the left side click on Watch List twice.
To the right of the words Watch List click on Select WatchList.
Click on the Watch List you set up for this.
To the right of the words Watch List, click on Load Watch List Symbols into Tab/Grid/Slide show view. Click on Grid View.
For my browser I can't put the detached tab on another screen. I just switch back and forth from the charts to MyOX. I also detach the option chains page and have them in a separate tab on my browser. I also detach the Trade Calc page and keep it in a separate tab.
Thanks Ron. I was able to very quickly set up the OX charts screen on my other monitor. And you are right that it allows me to see all the markets I am following at a glance.
I closed out an April GC 1450P today. That crazy drop in gold doubled my premium and while it might bounce tomorrow it could also drop further and cost more to close out. Better to be safe than sorry.
The ironical thing was I sold it by accident some weeks ago when I was checking the margin in IB and pressed the "Transmit" button instead of "Cancel". I only realized what had happened when the trade button started flashing
Nope...but have almost bought many times. My Droid ap for OX is defaulted to Buy for some reason. I've defaulted it to Sell on the home pc's but on the Droid it's Buy. Glad for the preview order button more than once.
I think you will have a good opportunity later to regain that lost premium to sell puts. If we have a close below 1550 then the next logical target is 1500 per the charts. Crazy few days in GC and CL here.
I saw a bid for the 1820 calls for .30 and had to jump on them.
I agree 1550 is a strong support but if it goes we could be down to 1450 before you know it.
I didn't feel too bad about losing the premium as I made 28 ticks shorting the GC futures on the way down.
