    Win XP firewall or zonealarm?

    I think, I think that the XP firewall has to be enabled prior to use, with that in mind I recently set up a lap top on xp and within 20 seconds of my logging on to the net I got a pop-up instant message. I am guessing this was generated via microsoft instant messenger which was not turned on...

    Total Police State Takeover???

    I did not say that I am happy with the current leadership at all. That applys to both Democrats and Republicans. Drugs should be legal, Prostitution should be legal, Dr assisted suicide should be legal. They are all Personal Choices. What I am more concerned with is seeing another Sept...

    Total Police State Takeover???

    Quote From End of this guys article: I have produced two documentary films and written a book about what really happened on September 11th. The bottom line is this: the military-industrial complex carried the attacks out as a pretext for control. Anyone who doubts this just has’t looked at...

    High volatility

    Hey Chris welcome back from your travels. That would make many Americans envious. One of my business associates is going to France next week. I told him he needed to go to the Crazy Horse and get his wife a lap dance, but we'll see if that happens. I have also talked with two people, one...

    High volatility

    Hey Chris, 7% sounds like a good solid month, congrats. I did just a little selling last week of some long postilions. Seems like things started to break down on a couple fronts. However, there is still a lot of put buying and short interest which could add some fuel for a while. Never did...

    High volatility

    All I can say is lucky I covered my KBH and LEN in March. So now I am thinking it may be worth putting out some sort of a short on these. My thought with Volatility being so low is that buying some puts may be a good strategy, don't think I could stomach another 20 points up. Curious...

    Rich Dad Poor Dad Book - PURE SNAKE OIL ?

    i really like john reed's site to read up on gurus that pass through town. he also has an interesting section on Russ Whitney and some of his dealings. If nothing else it makes a good read. I have read several RD/PD books, some of Wade Cooks stuff and some Robert Allen, et. al.. The...

    High volatility

    Trajan, and Chris, Wow I feel so missed. I have been poking around, dating a little and sleeping in. Just got back from a walk, I live on a lake and the weather was nice and hot today. As for the market, I just took some longs (MDY) to be specific off the table yesterday or the day...

    Soloflex & Home Gyms in General

    The elliptical trainers get a good write-up for a low impact workout. Something to do while watching tv. There is also a place called Play it Again Sports that sells used equipment. And Joe Weider has a system similar to Bow Flex for about $300 at sears. I don't know which if any is best...

    take the libertarian purity test

    This guy's questions seem just as nutty to me as some of the opinions that come out of the ACLU and the NRA. Some where in middle of America I have to believe that there are people who are tired of gov't waste and rhetoric. But at the same time expect the function of the government is to...

    High volatility

    Chris, I live in Raleigh, NC. I like to go once in a while to see what they are up to. But most of the stuff is either pretty basic or not real practical. The last one I went to was on buying notes, think it was ACFI. Then I came home and researched them and boy what a bunch of...

    High volatility

    Have you guys heard of this seminar? Coming to my town this week. Got two invites, both my real name and the fake one I used for a few other get rich quick seminars. I may poke over and see what oil these snakes are peddling.

    How to Hedge a Halted Stock?

    I think in all likelihood if the stock is halted the option will be halted as well. If you do have the option, you might want to consider exercising the right since it is contractual. One consideration would be to buy/sell a similar industry stock or etf. For instance if you were short...

    Are you for or against Total Gun Abolition ?

    I have to wonder what the thoughts are of the US Army enforcing gun control on the Iraqi People. According to Fox news Iraq's citizens will have to get permits for weapons and concealed weapons will not be allowed. Since this is the rebirth of a nation, it is as if we get to see what the...

    have fun with this one (holy grail!?!??!)

    When you get really good you can just auction off your stuff and trade from a beach somewhere. But that is only when you are doing 15-25% per month with stock splits and covered calls. http://www.murphyauctions.net/wadecook.html

    High volatility

    Trajan, Thanks for the idea on the Jelly Roll and the 2+1. Sold a few puts myself and hedged a short position with some calls. Other than that will have to wait to see what the charts uncover tonight. Will be rather interesting to see if the bulls step back in tomorrow.

    High volatility

    I've been watching from a safe distance. Although the spread that you set up with Bpur would seem appealing if Volatility dies down in the next few days, or the rally falls back. Do you ever put on (no pun intended) the same type of spread with Puts? Seems you could buy the June and sell...

    High volatility

    defiantly an advantage being a seller in that time works against the buyer, even if your timing is slightly off. But, it also is a good psychological advantage when grouped with other long and short positions as your income and equity curve stays a little more stable. Plus I like not having to...
