      Sometimes. I daytrade Futures and Forex, but last weekend I was holding CL Puts for instance....felt better holding Puts than shorting Futures over the weekend. I'm barely trading Option Strategies. Not too experienced with that.

      You'll have to get used to the TWS, definitely not the best Charting Software. But it has all I need and a lot of features. You can not use MT4 with IB. So if you need better charting software, you need something like Ninja Trader.

      Margin Requirements are less on covered calls. What is your Trading Platform? Do you use TWS? If so, you can click on New Window - Strategy Builder When you click on some contract the Window will show you the margin Impact at the bottom.

      , so you don't look at charts at all? I know Traders who don't look at the Charts for entering or exiting a Trade, but they still look at Charts to get an idea of the Market Direction.

      Thanks, didn't know what a Birdie is. Been trading Stocks for about 20 years and Forex for about 10 years. Just because I recently signed up here, does not mean I'm new to trading.

      Of course, a lot can happen. I'm not saying it wont go further up from here. Anything is possible. But I still think parity is coming due to the Problems in Europe. We will see.
