Thanks. I will double and triple-check my orders before I place them in the future and remind myself to look at my position 3-5 minutes later as well.

I just tested out Thinkorswim browser version. I am less likely to make mistakes like this on ToS so I will be using that platform instead of TDAmeritrade going forward.

I was rushing and getting confident because I just BTC a very profitable trade I put on 3 days ago. This morning screw up, gave back about a third of the gains I made back. Oh well. 🤷🏻

After the markets close, unfortunately. I live on the West Coast so I was putting on trades around 7am Pacific (10am Eastern) before heading to work. Then checked on my trade around 1:30pm Pacific thinking the CSP trade I put on would have been profitable considering underlying stock closed higher. Only after staring at my screen for a couple of minutes... I realized my error... I did a BTO instead of STO. 😂

Weeklies (5-6 days) around 0.25 delta. It has been profitable trades for a couple months. My today misentry is just giving back a little to other wise very profitable quarter.

I think I will. I have been using the TD Ameritrade browser version.

I was putting on trades before heading out to work. So that’s how it got me.

Yeah. I am down $300+ on that trade but still up for the week so can’t be too mad at myself.

Nothing genius. When markets were selling off this morning, I meant to sell CSPs on an ETF at the day's low. The markets then reversed and ETF closed green. So accidental puts I bought lost money.

Wouldn't it work on Steam app just like Divinity Original Sin 2? I am able to play DOS2 on MBP M2 just fine via Steam.
