You transact in PRICE. It's all you need to know. Though it's easier said than done due to headfakes and alibis (news).

Poor preyed upon? The "poor" are the largest element of lottery ticket purchases, thus voluntarily paying additional taxes. Funding your schools, et cetra. Speaking of taxes, without payroll witholding (implemented in 1943 as a temporary measure), the poor wouldn't have any savings...

Sheesh, Block trades are the "bread and butter" of specialists. They work blocks in and............they work blocks out. Piecemeal. Ideally without disturbing the price. Inventory management, acquired wholesale and distributed retail. Treated no different than eggs or fish. Have for...

Doesn't have anything to do with Thailand (or your smart ass mouth and plethora of no doubt informative posts). Just making the thread remotely relevant relative to some chump whining about a whopping 20 bucks on a trading site. Maybe the OP should take his toys out of the neighbor's...

What.......eh.............does "this" have to do with trading,or............stocks...................or.............ticker EBAY? EBAY broke in January 2005 on a penny shortfall in EPS. Gee, who feeds the analysts? Cash vs accrual accounting. At that January 2005 point, EBAY already have...

UNTIL the number of 52 week lows on the NYSE is 50ish, you're not really in fertile shorting ground (only exiting of longs as an over-bought state subsides). Stocks bottom in unisom but top one by one in accordance with the ax's inventory posture. That's equities. T-Bonds may indeed be a...

Wow, this is getting rich. What do you think "locals" do all day? What do you think they've done for the last century+? Specialists (and MM's) aren't the only one's that have purchased seats. When hard stops cluster, they're identified prey, and ultimatly taken out. Particularly...

Considering the Spider ETF as a proxy for the S&P 500, as of March 18th, the 20 day average true range (ATR) is the lowest, or shall we say the tightest since May 23, 2007. Nearly a third of a decade. Expect a forthcoming move kiddies. Direction? Remains to be seen, but given an...

Those that fail to learn from the past (or disregard it) are destined to repeat it. Snatch the pebble from my hand, grasshopper.

"Never" and "all" are strong words. There is an implied sophomoric notion the MM trades only in the moment and his only (another strong word) motive is teenies. Likewise, Joe Sixpack has another sophomoric notion the MM is a kindly order clerk performing a public service in maintaining...

A talker?............he's only posted a mere (7) times in 2 years while you've posted THIRTY-THREE HUNDRED TIMES Can YOU make the distinction? What about the distinction between quantity and quality?

Eh..............time decay.

The market has an upward bias. Wall Street devotes effort 24/7 to sell paper. Buying is external. Selling, with the exception of shorting, is internal. Once you fill long, your bias changes.

Probably more than you think. Oh it's not every year. It's every quarter, and ..............settled up once a year. Paying taxes, ie writing out that check, is a painful notion for me. Far more so than slippage or commissions. And........it helps pay for cops eating donuts, two...

A split is one of many merchandising techniques. Same pie cut into more slices, nothing more. Prior to the 1920's splits (conventional or reverse) were as rare as a lunar eclipse. Most institutions don't care about splits, but allows odd-lotters to trade in round lots. (Incidently, odd...

The fascination with short-selling is itself.............fascinating. Could be zero? Could be a lot of .............prices. Is shorting a 5 dollar stock worthwhile? Five bucks is the threshold for institutional "accepibility" Assuming THC (not to be confused with the active...

Yes, most impressive over the last decade. Ditto for a 12% ROE on 10 billion of debt..........oops, I mean leverage. But, it is at a round number. Either runs or repels.

Yeah, like I said, this is a SWM thread . And YOU have yet to utter one word about it. Thus rendering you a troll. I don't start threads. You're dwelling on CFC but SXE is a current event. Real time. Here and now. Go for it. I'm ALL eyes.

Take a listed stock Dustin. Any listed stock Multiply the shares outstanding by the current price. Can you say magnitude? Alternatively, multiply the day's change by the volume. You used the word LARGE orders. This is an institutional market. Daytraders are completly...

This is a SWM thread What about SWM? Help me out with my losing position in SXE. What should I do? I like being stalked. YOU are reading every single word I write.
