FYI: They also set limits for the most you can have in one stock. The probability of your account going negative before they can find liquidity to sell is greater if it's all in one stock.

Why might someone be told to leave? Asking so that I know "the rules".

On any week without a holiday normal trading hours are only 19.34% of the week. Stock investors are simply checking infrequently to see what the value of their assets are. The people working hard to propel the growth in asset values work on a much wider range of hours. So it would be weird if...

Except that he signed a contract doing exactly that. He doesn't always tell you the truth but he's probably not dumb enough to sign agreements when he doesn't mean it.

8% is not a measure of risk. That's just a measure of your likely max loss. What you really want to know is the risk that your trading strategy has not put the odds in your favor because in the end that's what will eat away at your wealth if not managed very carefully.

All that matters is whether or not you have put the odds in your favor. The link to that paper I posted shows no such thing. You may want to read it carefully before you consider it to be something that supports your money making goldmine.

Best answer ever.

I buy assets when they are on sale. That has worked for 70 years; sometimes better than others. But at no point did you lose too badly with this strategy. Over indulging in opinions from people who get pay to give them results in confirmation bias.

You are asking if interest rates correlate with future stock prices. It's easy enough to take data and answer. But you'll need a reasonable sample size and that will require decades of data since interest rates don't go up and down every year. I'd say that whatever happened in the 1970s to...

Save yourself a ton of headaches and get your data from another source designed specifically for that purpose. It's reasonably affordable. Then use the IB API to enter your trades and monitor positions. You're welcome.

Chris Collins did not actually trade this stock and he is not being accused of using his knowledge to gain financially in any way. This is where details matter. Simply making blanket accusations of insider trading plays well with people's feelings but it misses reality. He told his son about...
