被scottrade郁闷了，帮忙看看怎么办。

3：00pm 买了100个XLF 12的call 0.05， 设了个limit sell 0.10, 最高0.11, 可我的
没卖掉。

给scottrade 打电话问周一能不能set，broker 说他写e-mail不让set，说俺账上没钱
，而且买call的500刀也没了。

很郁闷加不解，他这么做对吗？收盘后的call 还有0.08 的说。

那位大侠解释一下？谢谢！！！

jamesyq

以前有过同样的事情，不过那次没打电话，结果周一就set 了，margin call 几万刀。这次上十万了，就打了电话问一下，结果就不让set了。

jamesyq

看来以后不打电话了，等周一SET了去赌一把。

要是这样，账户清空了，scottrade 还会要剩下的钱吗？

Did you only call once? Tried several calls. You can also try your local branch.

jamesyq

yes, I called once, and the guy told me that he e-mailed to not let it settle and I will lost the money. It's the local branch.

when you buy 100 XLF calls at 0.05, you paid $500 for the right to buy 100*100 shares of XLF at expiration, of course you $500 is gone, because $500 is paid for the right.
Now option writes will deliver your 100*100=10,000 shares of XLF at price of $12.00, does your account has 12*10,000 cash balance for that? that is $120,000, if not, you are in trouble because you broke the basic SEC rule.
I don't understand how come still have people like to do gambling like this.

Thanks qqq,   Yes, it's gamble.
