And I will package this in an exotic derivative to sell to the next guy as an investment opportunity.

It's easy when you are winning, no pressure, no big deal. It gets infinitely harder when you don't have a job, and the market is the only way you can make money. Having a small stake won't help any. Then every once in awhile, you will be tested, you will know that one mf'ing trade that is...

I'm impressed. A girl that knows how to trade and program? Very rare combination indeed.

Obviously, I'm totally against this tax. But if it does gain steam, this tax should only apply to investment banks and hedge funds. Not for personal traders who trade their own money for a livihood.

I was all set to buy a new Lexus at the end of last year, but I figured there was no rush in this kind of market. Now, I'm having second thoughts of even buying a new car because I have my eyes set squarely on upgrading my residence instead. With the unemployment % as high as it is, and...

This guy must be fading a certain individual who likes to buy calls.

estim, You are very close, I can feel it. You are using the right tools with matlab and Ninja. And I can see you understand using the right statistics and looking in the right area. You should definitely explore what you listed as not working. The only thing you are missing is longer...

Can't sleep, so just dropping in to say hi.

So where do I send my receipts? :D

3.2% interest rate on his savings account. 12 month high yield CD is worth about 2.25% right now. Finally some IQ around here. But hey, no zero zippo nada risk, right? LOL. Here comes that bus!!!! You take care now. I'll go back to trading and leave these "high" IQ games to yall.

Please don't. Besides you don't have any more money left for any type of investments unless you want to reload your demo account again. The market has suffered enough, America needs you to buy some puts so the market can recover.

Until you see a stabilization of housing, it is a very serious crisis. Lehman didn't close because of some fake crisis. AIG, Fannie, Freddie, and soon Citi didn't get nationalized for some imaginary crisis. The biggest investment names on Wall St. didn't just merge or become regular banks...

If you haven't noticed, times have changed. I'm not saying that it won't work, all I'm just saying the risk of something bad happening is much higher in today's economic times. Perhaps the CC will cancel your card per their new policies, and you can kiss your credit score goodbye. If you...

Nope. People buying way above their means, I'm talking about living like millionaires on minimum wage salaries. Credit is gone, so their means of supporting their lifestyle is gone too.

Can a burst bubble be unpopped? We may enter a period of slow decline to work off the "bad" assets. But in no way are we entering a period of recovery unless his definition of recovery is a slow decline.

^ We're bailing out the banks, dropping interest rate in the face of exploding inflation, and diluting the dollar so this lady could live in a 800k house that was and is way over her means. People like her (and also the banks/government) all contributed to this very financial crisis, and making...

Say goodbye to your credit. For $3k, it is just not worth it. You never know when they will unflag you, if ever.

Can you buy some Puts soon? At least this will allow the general public's retirement accounts to retain some sort of value, and get our economy back on track. What's the price/loss/expiry at? It's been at least 500 points drop.

He only turned himself in because he didn't want anyone to go after his kids. This way, he can take all the blame himself. I'm pretty sure the whole family was involved.

15% CD's baby!
