OK, according to the "follow" button and the settings, if I'm reading them correctly, they say that I'll get notified of any new content in the forums. But that's not happening. I'll study the settings further, in hopes I can find a way to follow you and the other leaders, but only in the two Steady Options forums.

Thanks Yowster, Regarding the option to follow the forums, I am following both the SteadyOptions Trade forum, and the SteadyOptions Discussions forum. And I'm only receiving the first posts in each topic. My settings for both topics are the same as you see in the screenshot I posted above. If I were to follow you and the other leaders, would the system send me only the emails related to these two forums, or would I get notices from anything you post in the other forums?

Thank you. I should've been clearer. I had already checked the orange "Follow" button. Here's a screenshot of the details of my settings for the following trades. I'm only receiving notifications of the 1st post in each forum. I've checked my spam folder and there are no emails in there from Steady Options. For the techies... I'm using Firefox Browser. Could that be the issue? Thanks

Hi I finished my first week of trading yesterday, using small trades until I've got the hang of it. I'm currently following the SteadyOptions Trades and Discussion forums. However I've realized that I'm not receiving any of the discussion notifications after the initial one. Is there a setting so that I can receive notifications of these subsequent discussions? (Fortunately the week ended quite well for me but I'll need to post in each of the threads and sort out what actions to take on Monday). Thanks

Happy to join this cool forum! I’m fairly new to options. My account is with Interactive Brokers, and I've played around with their options trading interface on their main portal (account portal). Do I need to subscribe to their trading platform, or can I use the simpler interface? I’m also trying to sort out in my head two parts of the SteadyOptions experience: the strong advice here to get involved in my trading and monitor my positions throughout the day, and the published historical performance data, which I understand is a reflection of all of the past trade notifications. If I were to try to strictly abide by the trade notifications when they arrive in my inbox, am I correct that the challenge in “duplicating” the trade notifications has to do with possible glitches (partial fills, price movement, other execution issues) which require my attention? Or is there more to this? And once a trade is filled, do I still need to monitor it closely? I’ve got a pretty busy life and there will be times when I can’t monitor my email, or my trades. Thanks Branch
