According to the CNBC site, fair value is: ...the value of S&P 500 Index, plus the interest I pay my broker to buy all of the stocks in it, minus all of the dividend checks I get from those stocks. http://www.programtrading.com/fvalue.htm

Any culture that idolizes Jerry Lewis films is not to be feared, but pitied. I hope the EU does become a robust market economy. Then maybe the US citizens will get a break from having to carry the burden of the world economy. It'd be nice to net export to the EU instead of importing all the...

Thanks nkhoi, it was nice to see a few of the pages from the past and remember when someone was watching out for us. I suppose after the next psycho rampage we'll all be forced out of business (and the politicians will say it's for our own good), with noone speaking for us. Thanks again...

Thanks for the info. on the Safe Harbor rules. The MSN article indicates I'd need to pay 110% of past years earnings to not worry about further payments. I'm not even sure that's why the IRS hounds me each year. Hear's my situation: It seems like they (IRS) are out to get me. Each of the...

I pay every quarter. The last two years I got dinked for not witholding enough, so this year I put in 80% of Q1's profits. Maybe that'll keep the hounds at bay.

Stress and/or emotion isn't an issue for me. I only risk 1/2% of equity on any one trade. I stalk trades (sometimes for hours). The hardest part for me is to keep my head on trading while I'm waiting for the setups to appear. Sometimes I even catnap.
