This reminds me a lot of late last year, where everything said break break, and they kept snapping um up. But sooner or later they will tire, and we can start all over again.

Which cops episode was this on? I need to set my WE SEE R.

If you have never been and want to play cheap I would suggest going to the Sahara, which is at the end of the strip. They have $1 tables (or did) and you can play all night, drink a few watered brews and just have fun. If you play craps, a bet on the pass with odds, and two working come bets...

Any more green and Im gonna need a machete just to get to my hot keys.

To me stops are a function of the way you trade. By that I mean that there is a big difference between buying 10,000 shares of one stock and buying 100 Shares of 100 stocks. I don't use "defined" stops, but obviously have to suck it up and take my lumps at times. I also don't put on any one...

I am on the other side. It seems to me that we could get a decent rally for ????. Not saying that this is the bottom, or the start of a new bull. However, people are showing a lot of disbelief, lot of public shorts, earnings not bad, plus the climatic events like Adelphia, WCON, and Martha...

Druz, Somewhere in these threads a member posted that he worked for the folks who sold the Spread for Me and pick up the soap product that you are asking about. He indicated that these guys don't even trade. And the big money is in the sale of the counseling services. This is the same for...

Clearly my biggest mistake was thinking that "Good" tech companies would have years of growth ahead of them. And to a degree, knowing that something like 1/2 of the world has never made a phone call leads me to believe that there is still opportunity, just not now. Patience is my biggest...

Seth, I took a flier recently on LWIN. Gabelli funds has snapped up 12% of the company, so I figure what the heck. Barrons runs a weekly section on 13D filings which can give you some decent ideas. As for ERICY, why not as long as it is not money you ever expect to see again. At these...

I had posted these numbers on another thread a few weeks back, but since this is sort of on topic here it goes: From Value Line % of short NYSE sales by public for 7/18 (54%) for 7/11 (48%) % of short sales by NYSE spec for 7/18 (34%) for 7/11 (39%) % of short sales other members...

I just finished flipping through my weekly Value Line Survey. In this issue they touted the fact that the average VL stock was down 2.7% over the past year. I then flipped to my WSJ and looked at how the Value Line Funds have performed. Down anywhere from 10% to 25% over the past year. Few...

A song that relates to trading, in that tattoos (paper trading) and Scars (real trading) are different things. Brad, I don't know anything about your system, but I would suggest that if you feel it is ready trade it. I will submit that dividing the expected results by 10 will give you an...

Here are three issues that I see with it, in no particular order. Anytime that you download something from the web you are letting a stranger into your house, picking up a hitchhiker, sitting on a dirty toilet. Is the risk of your computer security worth saving $10 on a cd? The record...

Andre, Here is a site that has a good collection of hard to find books, I placed one order about a year ago and was pleased. They also took back a copy of a book that shipped incorrectly, so service was good. http://www.alibris.com/ Ken Fisher from Forbes put this link in his column...

Tamvik, You may want to check out the Microsoft website and look for critical updates. This is a periodic download that MSFT provides for free. I use the Symantc products and often an upgrade will throw one or more things out of whack. The critical update usually fixes this. I would...

Does anyone know where I can buy the "Complete Idiots Guide to Being a Crack Dealer?" I keep thinking back to an article I read in the WSJ in late 99. There was a guy who sold his whole portfolio and bought gold. At the time I thought, boy what an idiot. Funny how a few years can change...

Chas, you're not kidding, not just here, but several times over the past few weeks I have covered my shorts only to wish I had pressed a little more. I am starting to feel like I did in the 90s where I would take a profit only to realize I had gotten off a rocket. Think I will start looking...

Here is a link to the IRS site. One of the pubs in the link has some good examples of how the withdrawal work, if you poke around a little you should be able to find one that fits your situation. http://www.irs.gov/contact/display/0,,i1%3D45%26genericId%3D16220,00.html

Silk, If you look at OIH you may find it to your liking. I was short a while, but covered way too early. Seems there is support around 50, but at this rate that shouldn't be a problem. Here is a link that breaks down the companies held. http://www.holdrs.com/holdrs/main/index.asp
