    Texas - what the hell - huge budget crisis

    It has alot to do with the drug war. The USA is keeping mexico in perpetual drug war on purpose to take advantage. Texas is close to the border, so cannot be protected from side-effects.

    Spyware attacks

    LOL Your first mistake: clicking anything. No means yes. Second mistake: not using Alt-CTRL-DEL to close your browser window. Its your fault that exe came on your computer, you obviously dont know how to protect yourself from spyware.

    I'm selling NFLX at $250/sh.

    I've seen the same thing. NFLX down market up. NFLX up market down. When we had capitulation last week NFLX was up 8%. Go figure.

    I'm selling NFLX at $250/sh.

    Netflix is a good speculative long, if only because of 30% short interest. Those shorters are stuck since $100. GMCR is another good long.

    RINO delisted, what happens to my put options?

    Apparently different brokers are now doing different actions. Seems because the stock of short stock availability is low on CCME, and there are many naked puts written, so buyers of puts must for example though IB not be able to auto-exercise or use buil-in exercise option, but must actually...

    RINO delisted, what happens to my put options?

    Now that I think about it, Im not sure if you have to pay short interest. because you open a new position.

    Nuclear Meltdown Trade

    Why dont we compare this disaster with tjernobyl? As I recall, not much happened except a 13 year upwards market run. Seriously, we have had nuclear tests, nuclear bombs, and already one nuclear meltdown. It is clear panic is overrated and If we do get like a 20% drop it will be time to buy.

    RINO delisted, what happens to my put options?

    jindie, you can exercise the puts and get stock assigned short. Keep in mind you have to pay short interest and have the available margin on hand. interest adds up. Although Im pretty sure CCME will open down, they're not delisted as of yet. Now what to do with the stock, you close your...

    Nuclear Meltdown Trade

    One more push down for capitulation. Ill start a good long as 1340 is unlikely to be the top. Bear market tops dont happen suddenly like that.

    Secret edge , loophole .....

    Most people trade for the wrong reasons. They don't trade for money, but for excitement. Buy and hold is boring, even though theres a true edge in it. WHile the edge that daytrading provides is much like poker, a zero-sum game. In poker you have something called big winners. Now, I don't deny...

    Secret edge , loophole .....

    this chart about the flash crash suggest something about the cause of the flash crash, but I heard another more plausible explanation by nanex. That it had to do with disappearing liquidity by computers, just like in 1987. We have had 2 events in 23 years. These are just extreme events and...

    Secret edge , loophole .....

    yup, once people realize the edge is with longer term trading they will realize. Daytrading is a zero-sum game, thus a pipedream for most people. Just like in poker. Because of that, learning people to daytrade for a living is like learning people to poker for a living, almost despicable. I...

    Better options commissions -- TDAmeritrade or IB?

    I dont like IB but theres really no alternative for foreigners wanting to trade US markets. Deposits and withdrawals cost $50+ for each broker different from IB. But with IB, these are completely free. The inactivity fee or market data fee of $240 beats the 50$ per wire, if you do 5 wires a...
