Are you still long ES at 1371?

You're right man. After we go thru some weak support ... we're headed to the lows.

[/b] Well said. I agree.

I have been "caught" in that very same position before. Whenever I begin writing calls where the strike is lower than my original buying price, ill try to go out farther out in time so that the premium collected makes it worthwhile if the stock is called away. About your situation ...

Tos is constantly improving their platform as well as their technology. Whenever they go live with the options on futures (which should be soon according to the last notification I got.); it will be the best or close to the best platform out there.

[/b] The answer to that problem is to find a stock that moves ... BIDU, FSLR, GOOG etc.

Focus on one stock. My trading results changed dramatically when I began to just focus on one stock. I even started studying financial reports of my company. Diversification is overrated imo.

I agree that your best play is to straddle/strangle on company earnings announcements.

Are you going to be using options in your trading ?

After the NYX-Euronext numbers are combined, I think that we will see the prolonged up trend re-established. The price target should be 112.

I know that the nyse and nasdaq are engaged in a battle for listings, but I can see that nyse has jumped way ahead in the game of corporate listings by adding Euronext. Watch and see that Euronext will agressively add corporate listings and new trading products with the backing of nyse...

From a fundamental analysis point of view, we should be seeing an increase in earnings per share,income, revenues, assets and cash flow as well as a decrease in expenses etc. NYX's valuation is at a different level now than before this present quarter; therefore it should reflect in the...

Are you kidding me? NYX down to 70 ... not a chance. I do agree with you, however that 85 is the short term bottom.
