A Guide to Trading Spreads
2008-03-26 15:23:00 You can't argue that market volatility isn't making options buying a complicated process. As a result of higher market volatility and fear from market participants, option premiums are a recipient of higher implied volatility. Higher implied volatility causes time value to become increasingly expensive, as a result a buyer pays more for an option while a seller receives more from the sale of an option. The topic of buying options vs. selling options is one of my all time favorite debates. While I am not much of an option seller, I can't argue that the market conditions favor this strategy entirely. If you have never traded a spread before, think of it as buying an at or out the money option, but then selling a more expensive option in front of it. The short option is the driving force of the trade since the premium is more expensive and you are the recipient. Remember that as an option seller, you are no longer dealing with rights (right to buy or sell a stock) you...

Greenwashing Spreads to Beer
2008-03-05 06:41:00 Not content with brewing crap beer, Fosters have decided to tackle the touchy feel green beer market. Not the lets get pissed St Patricks Day variety, but the latte sipping variety.The new brew is, unimaginatively, called Cascade Green, and not only have all the greenhouse emissions, from the growing of the hops to the recycling of the green bottle and label, been included, but it's low-calorie, too. Cascade Green's carbon offsets come from burning off methane gas from Tasmanian landfills and converting it to electricity, but will not include methane emissions derived from the beer's consumption.The Fosters-owned boutique brewery is confident its rigorous certification process will stand up to the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission's clampdown on misleading environmentally friendly claims.

Forex Foreign Exchange Spreads
2008-02-24 17:55:00 Forex Foreign Exchange SpreadsBy: Paul BryanForex trading is one of the most popular and fastest growing financial trading opportunities. Exchange rates for currencies in the forex market are quoted as 'bid/ask' rates. The difference between the purchase (ask) and the sale (bid) rates is called the 'spread'. Forex spread is one of the most important single parameter to make the difference between a successful and losing trading. Forex spread is expressed in percentage in point (pip) which is the smallest measure of price move. For example, if the currency pair EUR/USD is trading at 1.3000 and then changes to 1.3020, the pair is said to move by 20 pips. A pip in most currencies is 1/10,000 of an exchange rate, but in USD/JPY, it is 1/100.The bid/offer spread is the difference between the buying (bid) and selling (offer) price. The ask price is the immediate execution prices for quick buyers or traders and bid price is for quick sellers.In forex market brokers generally do not cha... |
