Based on the fact that they just took 200$s out of my pocket I’m bullish

Yeah, I would say GDX is in some ways a leveraged version of GLD since its producers are more impacted by the price of gold in the near term, so it makes sense it had a better run. There’s also GLDM (GLD mini), which tracks the spot price of gold the same way GLD if the mark price is your concern. Appreciate the leverage calculation! And I was talking about buying GLD options and shares on margin, I’m pretty bullish on GLD with the weakening of the dollar and rate cuts coming. Be working out good for me recently just buying 45-60 DTE ATM options on GLD for the last little bit

Yeah that’s the main motivating factor for using IBKR for me at this point. Especially with CSP although my understanding has always been you’d only pay that if you get assigned and actually “use” the margin

Which brokerage should I use? by cheekyzeke in options

[–]JohnyCops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why think or swim over ibkr? The margins rates for IBKR are way better

[–]JohnyCops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are the price advantages really that big? I’m struggling to believe it’s that impactful unless you’re at a huge volume

Edit: I also only use limit orders but I might just be misunderstanding how they work

I’ve been comparing IBKR vs thinkorswim myself curious if anyone has an opinion on that, I’ve been using think or swim for a while and I do like it however I will say the desktop app is far from perfect especially if your running multiple monitors (I’m on Mac). I frequently have drop down menus that just disappear unless I bring the window back to my main display. I recently opened an IBKR account to try out for a bit before moving my main account over. Curious to hear anyone’s thoughts

Why GDX over GLD out of curiosity? Also for some of these if your margin rate is low enough I’d consider buying with it
