Without a doubt. GS going down would create significant collateral damage. I doubt a currency position or positions could do serious harm to GS, isn't that what risk management is for? they tout that crap all the time no? either way.. i think the thing to worry about is Eric Holder and...

Well RVBD preannounced a great quarter and is set to spike 15% up after hours RVBD is up about 4 dollars. of course the damn thing drifted down from 34 to 31 over the last couple of days and then spiked 15% putting me 1 dollar above the straddle price. (not where I was hoping) not only...

Spindr0, Thanks for the reply. If I understand it. You are saying that if I am waiting for my big move, then add the deltas and get back to neutral. Otherwise if I expect it to zig-zag, book the profits by subtracting the deltas(or the profitable leg). in the first case - IV will...

Not a real trade but was wondering how options players adjust their position in the following scenario Long 900 RVBD at 33.88 Long 21 RVBD May 34 puts = -900 deltas. (purchase price 2.90) delta neutral straddle I suspect a big move in the stock by may 2011 expiration current(not...

Mav88, My perception is that you are fairly pessimistic about the prospects of the US. I am a 2nd generation immigrant, you may be 12 generations removed from immigrant status. I took the best values of my culture and integrated the cultural fabric of america minus the trash media-spun...

Well said. I don't believe in the diversity myth, the United States is currently under attack from within by all walks of special interests whether they be religious, economic, race based, regional or cultural. This ultimately will cause significant pain in the short and long run...

I think there are two different arguments here. mav88 and prometheus are evidently pro-homogeneity for culture and business. The argument that "white" western culture dominates currently is a very temporally-biased view. There is an argument that the workplace is a better cohesive unit...

Judging from your other short threads, you seem to be hitting a small bump in the road with your predictions. I give you credit for taking a stand. NFLX and EBAY are up in after hours both about 7%. XLNX is down about 1% despite doubling profits, missed on rev numbers and guided soft...

Nothing will come of this, but the politicians have to look like they are getting to the bottom of this. Grandstanding at best. Perhaps a few peoples head may roll at GS at the end. then business as usual.

Lots of electricity and neck movement. You can't watch all those monitors all the time. Even if you need that many charts/screens and timeframes, a better ergonomic strategy would be to run multiple desktops and tab between 4-6 monitors. I pray that after all that investment in wiring...

Goddamn, can u imagine if the media-fed sheep actually did this. That would be "change"! Best words I've read on here in a while.

SWTrader is fairly loud with his rhetoric. I can only give credit for his/her consistency, not his views. Swtrader quote 12/2/09 Obama threw an extravegant feast for the country that many middle class sees their jobs being lost to - Obama showed who he works for and it sure as hell isnt...

yes. thanks for the reference. China still produces more cars than India, just so happens more of those cars stay in China than export. I guess it makes for some good reading.
