ahcsim72, you can do either.
Shillllihs will make a trade and if you use one of the few brokers that are linked to collective2 the trade will automatically be made in your brokerage - totally automated.
Or you can select to get an e-mail/text or some type of notification that shillllihs made a trade and then you would enter/exit whatever trade was made.

I believe that you have to have completed a certain number of trades and have had the system in play for at least three months before you are eligible for the leaderboard.

I don't want to solicit on SF. & if anyone joins from here, I don't want to know.
I was just getting tired of all the negative comments about my abilities so I just
wanted to prove it.
I'll be leaving for Greece Sat. I'll be on several islands swimming, eating
Greek salads with feta, pastichio and drinking good Greek wine. Some of these
places have bad connections so not sure how close I'll be following it. Will be back
July 6th.

New to Collective2... I'm interested in auto trading options. I guess there is a risk of following every moves that the leader is making.... Anyway, there were some list of brokers and I didn't recognize any of them. Maybe I'm not understanding who those brokers are, but if I use brokers like Scottrade, Ameritrade, ect. in real-life. since they are not listed, I have to sign up with one that's list and transfer all my trading fund into the new one I sign up with them?

yep, Scottrade/Ameritrade/etc... don't support collective2. For autotrade only you would need to open a brokerage account with one(or more) of the brokerages that they show on their website.
Or if you want to keep with Scottrade/Ameritrade you can click on "Follow by e-mail, no autotrade" and you will just get e-mails when a buy/sell is placed and then you would trade manually in your brokerage.

I'm honored - I didn't know UVXY even had options. I normally just play around with VXX.
On a side note - you have UVXY going down to $8 in 8 days? Wouldn't that put SPX above the record high?
******************************
I wish that TVIX had options - Now that would be interesting!
And I will say shills you have been pretty influential in turning me onto volatility trading - appreciate all the knowledge you share here!

My thinking is, I would rather use an etf that I know intimately than play a different stock every day
that has its own personality. Plus ETFs may be safer than a single stock.
I literally played 240 bucks total, so basically gambling money.
Thanx!

ahcsim72 - I do not know of any optionable 2x Volatility. Only VXX and UVXY.
Shilllihs - I completely agree with ETFs as they are basically the entire market and not a single company that technically looks sound - from a charting perspective and then just get hammered for no reason, or puts out bad press. Too much inherent risk owning stock in a single company. I have quickly learned to stick to ETFs!
