Yeah this looks like pump and dump.

What industry? Are you really good at math? Apply it (far beyond macd). Do you deal with some kind of process or commodity of particular macro impact that you can use to help gauge the economy or sector? Apply it. That is how you can have an advantage over a snarky financial guy who has...

If you keep some room between your strikes you can leg down your short one to help avoid losses. Lets say you sell the 1300 and buy the 1250 SNP approaches your 1300 and you shit your pants Sell the 1290 or 1295 and use your proceeds from that short to help buy the 1300s back. "Leg...

Yeah it can be copied. But look at sites like TZOO. They can/are copied but the stock sure has done well.

Definitely. I have a friend who was successful as an advisor, auditor, and analyst for 20+ years. He managed private accounts for people for a long time and has advised billionaires, uncovered ponzi schemes, etc. So naturally, he decided to start a mutual fund so he could make his ability...

That's a load of crap. I think I am a good example to the contrary. 1. My day job gives me access to proprietary macro economic data. 2. My day job gives me front line knowledge of how the world works. 3. I spend about 10-12 hours a day on economic theory, apply it to the market, and devise...

Double dip baby. Here come. Hang on for the ride!

Umm... seasonality is one of the core purposes of having a futures market. You probably should not invest your own money.

So true. I have never really been fascinated with other people. When I was a kid, Arnold Schwarzenegger was in town and at a local store shopping for some Texas souvenirs. Everyone was staring at him. I just walked up to him and said hi. Same deal when Sandra Bullock happened to go...

So what? Look at the need for water. If the going price of water is only 50 cents higher, why would anyone else bring water in to satisfy the thirst?

The negative publicity only comes from economic ignorance of the masses. Best answer is for people to read a fucking book. They bitch that there is a shortage of supply, and that they have high prices. WTF???

Yeah. Two important words were "long term". Given that they ended up bankrupt.................. it was not profitable in the long term.

Assume you mean turning off power stations. And yes, that raises price. But when you get brown outs, you also get reduced quantity sold. Not likely that in the long term that would be profitable. Oh, and they went bankrupt.....................

Yup. You are right.

Prices mean something. When prices are moving up, it means supply is limited relative to demand and that profit can be made by bringing in more supply. Few markets show this as well as gasoline. Without being too specific, my day job involves helping gas/diesel distributors keep gas in...

Thats why I think having some assets matters. It at least shows some common sense. I mean if someone doesn't have at least 10k cash, they either: 1. Don't have common sense 2. Don't provide enough value to the economy, which suggests they are uneducated/unproductive/untrained/ignorant...

Buddha is not god. He was just a guy. No one "worships" buddha anymore than you would worship a college philosophy/psychology/astronomy professor. Buddhism is really more of a philosophy than a religion. It also fits well with modern psychology and science. I don't call myself...

Yeah lots of people misinterpret it (or it is taught incorrectly in school). School teaches you buddhists believe in "reincarnation" that "when you die, you come back as someone/something else" But its really not linear like that. It is more about "you are the universe". You are all...

It is the nature of one's ego to not be content. Your higher self is where content comes from. Understanding that you will die. That there is no life after death. That you are simply part of the universe - the universe's self awareness. That you are the universe and that the universe...
