Options – Introducing Calls
I started populating some quotes on call options this morning. Again, most of this work has been to test systems, make sure that call prices have some relevance to put and futures prices and to organize a template of the regions/strikes/expirations that I hope to cover. I am aware that others with potential interest in posting quotes have had logistical issues with their brokers, so until I get some feedback or see someone else entering quotes, I’m likely to keep bid/ask spreads fairly wide.
My hope is that – like futures -the first trade will generate an axe (e.g. ending up long/short volatility) which will generate another axe and so on.
I am open to any inquiries on option strageties (e.g. combining an option with delta-neutral amount of futures, straddles, etc. I’ll work inside both futures and option prices to tee up the first trade.
As with puts while I’m only showing prices on the four regions that the CME listed, please feel free to contact me (johnhdolan@homepricefutures.com) if there’s another region, stirke or expiration that you have an interest in.
