If you have 15% haircut it means, as long as you have enough money in your account for a drawdown of max 15% tomorrow, then you are ok. Your actual risk on the position could be 10x your account size, but your 15% haircut allows you too keep the position. Haircut is calculated daily...

I'm going travelling in October. I'll be in Thailand, most likely southern Thailand. I'll be bringing my surfboards and probably just enjoying myself.

dropped lsi today, ouch, and bot more exp (45 calls)

stay long.

I think this is a great opportunity to buy this stock. I had bought the sep 32.5 calls for .20 and sold half of them at .65-.75 Now that they are back down, I think the same thing will happen where they triple. I also got into LSI, which is the same pattern, I posted a pic of that on my...

Well expiration has come and gone. My account is at $403.07 So, mid- month (my months are from expiration to expiration) my account was as high as $550 and last expiration it was at $290. Overall it was a satisfying trading month. Recently I had calls in RIMM, KBH, JOYG. Some duds...

I use them as secondary confirmation... For example, if I have a pattern, I enter after a solid close thru the 68.2% level

for me it was due to not being in the correct mental state at the time. If I were you, I would see if this is how it is in your case. If so, then you should take a break from trading, possibly close all accounts, do things in your life that will prompt change, make you happy, stable, sure...

Sometime late 00 or early 01, Dow was trying to go to new highs. Closed way up, IBM came out with bad news, and futures dropped 10 points ah. I put on 200 ES short. I covered over the next day or 2 for an average of 30 points. A good trade I thought, but if I would have held or even added...

my time horizon is a little longer than just today, but i figure that todays action means little, and we will continue up leading into expiration.

He didnt say he was a newb, not from what I could tell. I'm sure it would be possible to experience success with a small amount of money if you know what you are doing. Livermore started small. My account is sub 1k atm.

I use hostgator.com for hosting and aplus.net for registration. Another important note is that you should not host with your registrar. Better to keep them seperate as it makes things easier when you want to change hosting. It also makes sure that you dont do something that lets them own...

intermediate move will continue to the upside, i wouldnt short this unless its just for an intraday move. i only see more bullishness into expiration.

my guess is, volume would increase and whoever the big player in the stock is would crush you.

if this were true, it would easily be arbed by buying otm options until it werent true. So, id say it aint true! :cool:

I am of the opposite opinion, I think that the markets go up big into the weekend regardless of what the fed does tomorrow.
