OSCC Risk Ranking of Option Products

This table is our opinion only. Your broker may have and probably does have a completely different view point. Therefore no investment decision should be based on this table. We are not responsible for any losses based on these guidelines

Definitions for the categories are listed on a separate page.

Definitions for the column headings are listed on a separate page.

We added a column that we call "Floor Traders Index". This is a rough guideline for how floor traders treat option premiums, but in no way takes the place of the opinion and knowledge of a broker. This is a very important category. It has it's own separate chart (coming). See definitions.

As used throughout this web site: 10/31/2019

This site relates to option trading of commodity options and futures with strategies that buy or sell puts and calls either long or short for profit on treasury bonds and notes, Dow Jones Index, soybean products, corn, wheat, oats, rough rice and T-Bond options on the CBT, Chicago Board of Trade through "floor traders". We are also doing 6 currencies from the CME, the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, the Japanese Yen, British Pound, Swiss Franc, the Euro FX (ECU) and the Australian and Canadian dollars. We also do 5 agriculture products, the S&P 500, NASDAQ 100 and Eurodollars related to European and Economic Monetary Union (EMU) interest rates. Commodities are a high risk speculative hedging investment and traders should use brokers for trading contracts who keep their funds and money in accounts with high rates. This site provides free commentary, and technical analysis on commodity futures and option premiums by OSCC from our futures charts and option charts for use by traders. This site no longer provides free quotes, although we do provide a free commodity ticker.
