    That statement is too vague. Elaborate as to why the above post(s) are "why 90% fail."

    ETF's inefficient for portfolio modeling

    The fees are a drawback, no question. And agreed, news events can and will pull down at times what I've bought so far. I'll be drilling down into industry groups to find the stocks I'll need to bring the diversification I'm looking for.

    ETF's inefficient for portfolio modeling

    Nope, he's long imo and in a panic over the move up. No business trading until his emotions can be removed, and destroyed. lol

    QuoteTracker To Be Finished End of 2011

    I really can't understand why others are wanting to start using QT with it about to disappear from the radar. Imo, move onto something else. This thread keeps coming up, but it's a dead horse.

    The Dangers of x2 and x3 leveraged ETF's

    I won't even do that. These toys/pieces of crap are for those who will be separated from their money soon. Wouldn't touch one for more reasons than one, that's for sure! Total garbage imo! Each to their own I guess...

    IMO They're not smart enough to keep the s/w going, so don't waste your time jerking their chain unless you've got a mid seven digit account to talk for you.

    Black Friday retail sales hit record

    I'm sure the tactic worked this year to a degree. I wonder if next year the retailers will say screw it, and stay open all day Thanksgiving? Sad state of affairs we have in the US when people drive 300 miles or so to "visit" family, then leave the Thanksgiving table at 11:00am to start...

    Black Friday retail sales hit record

    I'm sure credit cards were a large part of the idiotic frenzy. However, there's certainly alot of cash on the sidelines, and the sheeple (imo), were antsy to blow some of it on stupid stuff for people they really don't even like to begin with.

    weekly turkey otions expire Thursday, or Friday?

    Crispy, I can't believe you've done this to me! I'm about to get in the car and go get some absolutely beautiful gyros (pronounced "hee-ros" for the rest of you who call them "jyros" lol) and a massive greek salad with extra feta, and extra pepperoncini! YUM!!!!!!!! Probably some humus too. lol...

    weekly turkey otions expire Thursday, or Friday?

    Lol! It was on my upper deck which there are no stairs to. I did decide to take it inside, and place it in cool water in the sink Wednesday night. It worked perfectly. When I was putting the turkey in the oven after prepping it, the only thing I noticed was a miniscule amount of ice in the chest...

    With the fanfare QT has, I would have thought someone would have done something by now to keep the s/w going...:(

    weekly turkey otions expire Thursday, or Friday?

    Agreed completely! I have my alarm set for 0300. If it isn't thawed completely by being on the deck (lol) at 46 degrees with no sun on it, I'll put the silly thing in a trash bag in the sink, and fill it with cool water to finish the thawing, and be oven-ready by 1000. And yes, I should have...

    weekly turkey otions expire Thursday, or Friday?

    Thanks bro! Believe it or not, I have it sitting on the back deck. It's 46 degrees here, so I hope that allows it to thaw the rest of the way overnight. If not...:eek: And I'm an Italian too. I should have known better.:( :D

    Prop firm deposit 10-30k 100% payout?

    I can't see Bright Trading allowing overnights that are un-hedged, high beta positions. Btw Don, if you DO allow guys to go max leverage in high beta stuff overnight with no hedge, I'll send that turkey asap so you can have it for Christmas dinner.:D :) Last, there's bound to be a time...

    weekly turkey otions expire Thursday, or Friday?

    Lol! Agreed! Btw, I'm in a panic at the moment. I took a 22.9lb turkey (that I'M IN CHARGE OF COOKING while the rest of the family takes care of the rest), out of the freezer Sunday afternoon, and put it in the fridge. After checking it earlier, it's still like a semi-block of ice!:eek...
