Here we go again. Just when the market teases traders with the prospect of a much-needed correction, the bulls step up to the plate again to sidestep such a move. Like all the rest of the recovery efforts, this one isn't apt to go anywhere. On the other hand, as long as the bulls are enforcing their line in the...
The term "iron condor" can be an intimidating term, even to veteran options traders who haven't take on such trades before. But, the nickname for the strategy is more forlorn than it really needs to be. An iron condor is simply the combination of two spreads that — together — offer a position with a limited amount of risk regardless...

Oil prices could fall below $40 if the market doesn't get a clear catalyst to buy, Goldman Sachs said. That catalyst could be further intervention by OPEC or a steady drop in U.S. crude stockpiles and the nation's rig count, the bank said. Global stockpiles are declining, but rising production in Libya and Nigeria is a concern, according to Goldman....

As has been the case more than a few times this year, just when it looks like the market's finally going to fall off the edge of the cliff, the bulls find a way to bring it back from the brink. After toying with multi-week lows on Thursday last week, the buyers stepped up to the plate on Friday. Still,...

Think a put option can only drive profits if the underlying stock or index moves lower? Think again. While the "buy low, sell high" (or "sell high, buy low," in the case of a put trade) is still sound axiom is still good advice, limiting yourself to the straightforward purchases of options doesn't let you capitalize on one of the...

It's official. The U.S. economy is humming again… at least judging from June's employment report from the Department of Labor. The country added 222,000 new jobs last month, handily topping expectations of only 173,000 new payrolls.
