    wep is not secured. 64bit wep can usually be cracked within 5 minutes (given the right tools ie. wifi card that supports monitor/injection). 128bit requires a lot more iv's which delays the cracking process, usually takes about 10-15 minutes. all of these are contingent on a good wifi signal...

    Live Streaming CNBC on Internet?

    my point, exactly. price of one lunch. i've used it when i'm traveling outside of the country, plus you get to watch fast money or any of their segments at your convenience. bloomberg is free, but i kinda like the cnbc format during US market hours. maybe i'm just used to it and i need to...

    Live Streaming CNBC on Internet?

    the delay is 19 seconds today, so it's around 18-20 seconds, same as last night. i think they have a trial version, so you can try it out to see if it's good enough for you...

    los angeles, california. i get over 5mb/s downstream (per www.speedtest.net) on my internet connection. i hope i don't get banned for this, but if you want to stay on top of breaking news (stocks/company, economic, and sometimes entertainment), go to www financialchat com and join...

    Live Streaming CNBC on Internet?

    additional info: cnbc plus has 3 tabs (us, europe and asia) plus on-demand tab, and depending on the time of day, some are not broadcasting. i just timed cnbcw (cnbc world) channel which is currently equal to the europe tab, and the cnbc stream is about 18-20 seconds delay. this may or may...

    options is just another trading vehicle that can be traded. some options (with huge bid/ask spread) are for swing trading. some options (with very small bid/ask spreads) like spy/aapl/iwm are for daytrading. i play osg options. when i enter, the spreads are usually .4 i go in the middle...

    awesome, awesome post! i wish i understood this better before blowing up my "speculative" account so many times in the past, lol. i may still blowup (because of my options trading - long options, high-risk/high reward style), but at least i understand why anyone who plays poker online could...

    i agree with you on this, completely. i thought that maybe you had this under control in your trading methods as you made the biggest gain last friday (a huge market up day). last week was a very nice week for me, but i got very lucky on friday that i got out of my puts before lunch. this...

    i don't like flame-wars. redink was much more civil in his criticism. he presented his arguments well. i agreed with him that when neke was making mistakes, neke was "gambling". even neke didn't understand why he did some of those things. i forgot to add in my reply that what about those...

    redink, i agree with your comments. i also don't agree with some of the actions that neke has mentioned and you have pointed out. he knows he's made mistakes and he posts them. in poker, everyone makes mistakes. even the very best. the better poker players make it an effort to make the...

    roflmao very direct. i think if it was up to short&naked, this website would be called www.elitegambler.com maybe short&naked thinks that everyone who "invested" in these income-producing mortgage backed securities, cdo's, etc. are just bad investors

    don't want to answer for neke, but i just wanted to make a couple of points. how long have you been reading this journal? your concerns that this is a high-risk/high-reward trading activity not to be copied by anyone else have been addressed in many posts. this journal is a continuation of...

    great job, neke. i've been doing well these past few weeks. i have to keep reminding myself that i'm no genius and that it's just been an easy market to trade in. all i've done the past 2 weeks is buy puts and many times sell in the same day. same as you, i don't necessarily maximize the...

    don't feel sorry for this guy... he doesn't deserve sympathy. i used to feel sorry for this guy. i'm a directional player, myself, and have struggled with my own bad picks. but this guy is a jerk and a jackass and deserves to lose for maligning optioncoach, one of the most helpful people...

    wow... i am extremely lucky that i sold my mer put position last friday. looks like it's worthless tomorrow. chance can outperform grace, sometimes... from the movie player 5150 - a very good movie about a day-trader/degenerate gambler looks like it's going to be an exciting week for...
