delivery would be very expensive...You(company) really only care about losing a value position, so that is why they trade value positions instead.

it flies as long as people buy our treasuries...but, the system is what it is, so you have to know the rules and play by those rules in order to get anywhere in the long run. If you are generating huge returns year-in and year-out, there is nothing to be concerned about. Our future...

short him, it's a new decade and a different trading atmosphere....his post 2000 record has already been confirmed numerous times as being TERRIBLE. "past performance is no guarantee of future performance"

rb that response was directed towards apex... not yourself ;) i will try to be more specific. I am not following this thread for the opportunity to heckle someone if it fails, but to maybe learn something if the strategy works for the person. ETF was making some bold calls and I wanted to...

"you are right. the problem I have with this kid (and I do believe he's a teenager), is that he got all giddy, and went crazy with these ra-ra posts at 10am in the morning! he will now have his arse handed to him. but no sweat, he's got the lithium capital mentality. so no matter what, he...

Most impressive, a close at 38.03. Have you closed any part of the position or are you going to ride it all??

don't you remember the commercials; "Do you YAHOOOOOOOO?"

yahoo was actually working with overture (whom they now own) before google implemented adsense...or whatever they call it!
