    Visa and MasterCard on sale

    The horse bucked me off at $75. Climbing back on here at $70 after seeing it bounce off $68. Stops are just below $68. We may not see any real upside moves until after options expiration.

    Visa and MasterCard on sale

    10% off sale. Picked up some Visa this afternoon at $77. I think this is a pretty good place to try a trade. Target is $85. Stop is $76. This gives a $1 to $8 risk/reward. The low on "flash crash" 5/6 was 75.91. Today's low was 75.92. That's techincally a higher low right? Ok, maybe...

    Man I miss the cheap stock days.

    I think people will be a bit gun shy for a while. Everytime we have a bit of a pull back people will flash back to "the meltdown". I think people will be keeping fairly tight stops. At the same time the people who missed this run will that as an opportunity to get in. So I think we see a lot...

    Transportation of the future

    That's pretty cool! Not sure it would do well here in Oklahoma. Wind gusts would probably blow you against a building or into power lines.

    No Double-Dip Slump

    I think this is the most shocking thing about the article: ... before leaving for the Canadian Arctic on Friday to attend a meeting of Group of Seven rich nations' finance ministers and central bankers in Iqaluit, capital of the vast Inuit territory of Nunavut. Who the hell books a...

    is grocery store a good trading business?

    Yes it is. People will always need food. You get to buy low and sell high(er). If times get tough you can eat the slightly expired food that you can't sell to customers - at least the frozen and canned stuff.

    Dubai Opens Tallest Tower Partially Leased in Slump

    Is it just me or does it seem like this building might as well have a sign that says "Terrorists: Please park truck bomb here".

    No Brainer Breakouts or How An Early Bird Catches A Worm

    What if in 100 years, robots can do all the work.

    I've pondered this scenario before. The entertainment and arts industries would probably be one of the few things left for humans to do. In theory robots should be able to: Plant and harvest food. Manufacture goods. Repair mechanical things. Build houses and other structures with...

    Reality based coin-tosser method that beats 95% of traders in the world.

    Reduce the cost of your "random number generator". You're paying 25 cents per day. Tell the bum to flip the coin 20 times and he/she can have it after that. Record the results of the 20 coin flips. Enter those into a system that will automatically open/close the positions. Do...

    While I respect people willing to embark on creative endeavours, sometime it's more efficient to not try and re-invent the wheel. http://www.petsmart.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2751252
