i've got one - it's unmarked too. only "problem" it's 2 years old.

Unwanted / unused gift I have Charles Drummond's book "how to make money in the futures markets....and lots of it". This is totally unused and moreover not really a book but a photocopy as the book has been out of print for ages. This is exactly what you'd receive if you ordered it from...

the puts had apparently a strike of around 13k for the dow. they were at the money, at the time...i.e. several months ago. allegedly they are very long dated (15+ years). this is obviously a great trade if you believe dow will be > 13k in 15+ years or whatever the expiration date is. what is...

dude or dudess! i don't think you've done any research at all to be honest. the fsa is a very thorough and professional regulator and will answer all your questions if you bother to pick up the phone or visit their site. don't be lazy and don't expect other people to be doing your work!

hi - your assets are your youth (i assume you're just out of college even though this is not immediately obvious from your post) and your passion. your liabilities are your lack of experience and your under-capitalization. invest in your development as a trader or find somebody who will e.g...

hi - the shortest way is the hard way. here are some general guidelines for you: - find a person who's walked the path you want to be on and who is willing to share his knowledge with you and learn from them - have a WRITTEN plan about what you want to achieve and how you will survive...

price on its own does not imply anything. only the price level which buyers/sellers perceive as fair value. since c in particular has fallen off the cliff at gathering speed you can infer some sort of misfortune is imminent. that would have been easier if the whole stock market was not in a...

nicole is very respected among the technicians community. she uses ichimoku, also know know as "cloud charts" in the west. for those interested, she published a book this year. it is the first book in english on ichimoku. all other literature is in japanese.

the market will go up and then down but not necessarily in that order :D

Since there are a few interested parties around on the board, i thought of posting this from the journal. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB122697125541435813.html

great post - thanks

hi - bank trading desks have their own internal models. yes, some use bloomberg but bloombergs are on a subscription basis. what you're asking never came free to my knowledge. the cbot and/or liffe had published a nice manual back in the 80s and 90s.. it was one of the first things that we...

ray - you're too stressed buddy. you're very, very young and you need to lighten up. try and enjoy life a bit more and do an undergraduate degree in something you have an interest in. then go work. there will be plenty of time to join "the establishment" later. just trust me, i have walked...

looks like we all typed our replies together...:)

i am surprised at the amount of ignorance on this board sometimes..... the PPT, aka the president's working group on financial markets, is an actual entity established by reagan in 1988. while i am not a big fan of wikipedia, the material on the subject they have on them is accurate...

ray - i spent approx. 10 years in that business working for bulge brackets.....most of the time. without being overly dramatic, the financial industry and in particular wall str as we know it has disappeared. a new structure will emerge. don't ask me what, as i don't know. that said...

by "resistance" you must mean support. resistance is an area where sellers outnumber buyers and support an area where buyers outnumber sellers. the bottom of the rectangle is support and the top resistance. it is logical to assume now that the top of the box will be tested. of course...

from a pure technical perspective, the weight of the evidence is clearly against any bounce while it is forming this rectangle (box) in a downtrend. this is a continuation pattern and likely to break to the down side. price target is the width of the box, so i guess the 10 area (can't see...

GCC countries have made some dismal investment decisions in the last 12 months or so. perhaps a contrarian indicator for gold?:)

Dear stocksniper - i have a top mba and worked for bulge brackets. all i can tell you from experience, is that if you're approaching the issue from a "risk/reward" perspective, you may regrettably get to a stage in your career where you will be unfulfilled. in my opinion, you need to find out...
