Wow. Sometimes the obvious is right there in front of you.

FYI according to site, they clear through Penson. So is this kind of sub-contractor setup really a bad scenario then?? Does not sound like you would need any securities licenses......

Interesting. Just saw the FAQ section now: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 6. Is Capital Traders Group a Brokerage firm? No. Broad Street Trading, LLC is a private corporation formed to manage and trade its own brokerage account. By becoming a...

I don't think it would be really worth it, unless you are in a present day cash crunch perhaps. It sounds like you bought a chunk of high quality corp bonds at the right time, possibly in 2008. I ran a present value calculation for you. Eventhough you have a high yield, whats most...

Not sure if its prop. Noticed they are currently advertising under a Daytrader addy on CL in NY area. Minimum is $1500. Anyone with any input or comments?? (BTW I have no affiliation and am not a newbie with 1 post who signed up yesterday) Website appears to be equipped with chat room...

OK I might be changing my outlook a bit with respect to the Kiosk revenue stream. I spoke with someone who is pretty reliable and knowledgeable with respect to these particular logistics. Apparently the rev split on the NCR kiosk platform looks like this: Any movies 6 months are older, the...

UPDATE DD & View: Huge difference if they have to go to court, file BK vs. coming to a negotiated re-structured settlement with the debt holders. In a nutshell, if they do have to go to court and file BK 11, the sub notes would, according to current market trading view, potentially be...

Depending on your broker website interface, you could get them from there. Go to trades, go to fixed income, go to corporate bonds, under issuer type in Blockbuster and that should generate a quote for you. However some sites like Scottrade, you would have to call. As far as the web goes, you...

New DD Check out link below and the latest management filing. This gives a great overview of the future big picture direction of blockbuster and how they will achieve new business digital multi-channel platform milestone. And pay close attention to the section that starts labeled...

As I have been saying since my very first post here, the only way to play this at this point in time is not with the common stock, but with the sub 2012 notes. Because they will have to be dealt with, most likely out of court which all signs are still pointing to. The common stock will most...

Was wondering if folks would share the latest and greatest meaning lowest margin interest rates they have seen with retail online brokers in the under $100K & under $50K tier ranges. Thanks

$2.60 is the total out of pocket cost for 100 shares - 1 call option $2.50 strike. So you buy 100 shares of stock X for $17.25 And sell $2.50 call strikes against it. If you do this simultaneously, i.e. not legging in, you will have to pay more than the break even $2.50 price point.

Thanks for taking time to share that. Very interesting.

That is a good idea. And you would effectively have to go with higher strikes because of the shorter time period expiration on the calls. I will look into this as well. But what do you think about being a year out on something thats $18 now & short $2.50 calls. How long you think you could...

Thanks for the heads up on T. You bring up a valid point and question. Not worried about missing potential upside on PPS, because this strategy is for a bond investor. Initially I looked into this premise, because allot of the sexier super high quality investment grade corp bonds with higher...

This was spawned from another thread on the stock forums. ***This objective is purely for the sake of dividend capture*** ((This is not a debate over whether writing naked puts is superior than covered call writing. We already know that it is, especially when utilizing a ton of leverage...

If you are willing to take on the principle risk associated with buying common stock and the fact that dividends are not guaranteed and could change tomorrow for only an annual 2% divy return, you might want to check out GE secured corporate notes. There are some medium term ones out there with...

Crazy stuff. Do you think some where on some place out there that someone or something has the capable technology of traveling through space similar to the experience of how you and I would hop a plane from NYC with a 8 hour commute to reach the west coast? In other words how much shorter could...
