    Volume 4000 CSCO 17.50 Calls

    Anyone watching CSCO today.....volume on Feb 17.50 calls is at 4000 and its not even 11:00AM. This would be a huge move in three weeks to accomplish. I doubt its someone hedging short positions, because the 15.00 strikes would make much more sense for only .10 more and stepping up a spread of...

    Heads Up... KOGi 17" LCD on sale again... $299

    thanks gnome.....you may/not remember. But from a previous discussion/thread we had.....there was a 17" Samsung that had some ridiculous rebate also, $150 or so......Bestbuy now has these listed @ $499.99 with a $100 rebate also. Not sure if $100 means much to people. I think comfort levels...

    Trajan's options journal

    Its kind of interesting that you were ahead of this short curve on CSCO. It was flirting not to long ago with a key resistance level of $15.80ish. The volume and buying interest on CSCO as we began this year was enormous. I can not recall a time when CSCO would be steadily increasing on a daily...

    Trajan's options journal

    Trajan..... How are you planning on playing this going ahead of this weeks earnings day? Is your outlook and mindset for your position/strategy the same? Would you concur with the last few days of action on CSCO as more of an opportunity to play momentum -- post-earnings announcement. In...

    LLC, which expenses are deductible?

    A little off subject, but kudos to you for setting up this LLC. Anyone with big exposure to the market, i.e. writing naked options or covered spreads, etc. should do this. You can PM me on this inquiry, or anyone with insights drop it here. Is it hard to find lenders or creditors at this...

    Enjoying the action in RMBS?

    It is very exciting while extremely frustrating. RMBS is unique. When it made its now famous "run" of $70ish to $450ish in less than three weeks, it was bucking the trend of the Nasdaq at that time which had started its downtrend/bear market fall from the 5000 mark. Just when you think RMBS...

    RAM combos

    OK cool...so two sticks of 256MB will cost you $88.00 This is a good deal. $12 less than 1 stick of 512MB as I mentioned previously. Just make sure that if your gonna run say 1GB, you have 4 slots to accompany. That is why I prefer two sticks of 512MB. This minor upgrade in itself of just stick...

    RAM combos

    no doubt, the cheap kind. Generally speaking everyday prices, if you want a stick of 512MB DDR PC2100, it is gonna cost you around $99.00. PC2700> is obviously more.

    Did you play RMBS options today?

    Anyone by chance get this one before 1:30pm?? Looks like the news broke around lunch time. Unreal. The volume was INSANE. A 31million share day. Yesterday was around 500K. I wonder if that many people were still short this thing, or if that many people were simply flipping it all afternoon as...

    TED turner quits AOL

    2 great short plays are AOL & BRCM. (Keep in mind though that BRCM has been slaughtered nearly 40% this week alone) I especially like the contrarion perspective in that so many fund guys and so called gurus were calling the bottom for AOL when goof # 1 left a couple of weeks ago. It reminds me...

    Rdram

    GREAT POINT..i forgot to mention this. If you only have 1 or 2 slots, this will determine the amount of stickage you want to get. Generally speaking, most mid to higher end towers come with at at least 2 DIMMS, usually more. Try to use the same output for each stick. If you have 2, go with 256...

    Rdram

    So the moral of the story is to go with DDR memory of at least PC 2100 pumping out 512 MB ....actually I prefer 1 GB and do not forget about CAS latency. 2.5 seems to work best for me.

    New Equipment...

    I have heard of Trikentic. Somewhere I have a pic of an absolutely ridiculous workstation that these guys offer. Its like a three screen by three screen mounted frame that sits on your desk. Very pricy. Their towers are pretty intense also in terms of the capacity and power they have. If I get a...

    SBUX calls up 900% overnight

    When we were in the chat room late morning....SBUX was at the highs of the day breaking out to $23.30......those calls were up another .35-.40 cents or $40 per contract. Another huge move when you consider they were selling for a .05 a couple of days ago. MVL is up another .50 at this time. You...

    Trading Reits

    It really depends on who you talk to. According to Forbes, eventually those who buy REITS on margin will get "theirs," meaning a whacking. I guess the thinking is that, at some point in the short term (meaning less than 6 months) the stock market will get better. However, the link below would...

    P4 and dual monitors

    I wanted to be sure of what OS you WILL be running. You say that you are presently running 98SE. It can be next to impossible to install more than two monitors on that particular operating system. Unless you are a tech guru, that is a different story. XP is a piece of cake and a heck of allot...
