Listener questions and comments:

  • Question from BTavares -Hey great show. I'm looking at this chart from FT and it makes me wonder if I should concentrate my trading in the last 30 minutes of the day to increase the liquidity for my options trades. I wonder if this also applies to less-liquid options names.
  • Question from Yancy - I heard Tom Sosnoff say on your interview show that there are 20 active names and 75 tradeable names in the options market for retail and that's about it. Do you concur?
