    A planet with no money

    If you don't believe humans can evolve then you are really saying YOU can't evolve. That is a pretty sad and hopeless position to take if you don't mind me saying but I can see how you draw that conclusion looking around lately. Don't worry though, you (we) will have many chances to get it right...

    A planet with no money

    Gnome, what you think you know could fill volumes. What you don't know could fill libraries. Also, you come off as very bitter and I'm sure that is your experience in life as well.

    A planet with no money

    How do you know what a world without money would be like? You've never experienced it and are only using your own life on Earth as a judge of what it would be like. Maybe a society without money is almost fully automated and have necessary technology to produce goods and services with minimal...

    Smart Phone & i-Pad for charts & order entry?

    That looks pretty good and the screen is big enough to make TWS usable once you get used to the touch screen and mouse taps. Nice handle btw if we ever get an Eddie Adams on ET we'll have a trifecta.

    Smart Phone & i-Pad for charts & order entry?

    that's the dirty secret about native iPhone running apps on the iPad. most of them look terrible on the higher res screen. They just do not translate well on the bigger display. If I were going to trade with the iPad I would just remote into a PC running TWS. If anyone can post a screenshot of...

    Was 2009 a disaster? What are you doing for 2010?

    Quote from BPtrader: Well, let me tell you, you clueless idiots, this is a zero sum game, when you lose money, the money goes into the pocket of other traders. If you have no clue of the concept of "zero sum," you deserve to die, expire, become extinct. Newbies, it is the time to kill...

    Weinstein Trading and Fading

    Didn't you just move into a big new house? You aren't planning on living in your office are you? Hopefully this is not a domestic dispute or financially related but either way good luck. You seem like a stand-up guy and honest to a fault in my opinion so I hope things work out for the best for you.

    Instead of soupkitchen lines we have this.

    Ok, let's say you bought it on Friday since you say it is still a buy... your price was anywhere from 266-270. Let's review again in Sept-October and see if Apple's stock price is higher or lower. My guess is lower. You should also realize that the market prices (and sometimes over prices in...

    Instead of soupkitchen lines we have this.

    Yeah, I understand your point but I think it is evidence that this country (and most of the developed world) is living in la la land right now. Just because people are throwing away money left and right on a phone they probably don't need or paying $1000 for a giant iPhone doesn't necessary bode...

    Instead of soupkitchen lines we have this.

    I have never shorted AAPL, and am not outright shorting now either... just buying some options for the end of the year... I've been following the iPad and iPhone 4 closely and also their competitors offering and am just making a call. I don't like the sound of this reception issue with the...

    Instead of soupkitchen lines we have this.

    Well, not many but if you are going to fade moves you should be picky at least. It is certainly not my preferred way of trading but bubbles should be sold at some point. My thinking is Apple is a mini bubble and expectations are too high. I would rather sell hope than buy it that's for sure.

    Instead of soupkitchen lines we have this.

    I would say the opposite. It looks like a mania to me. I don't normally try and pick tops but Apple stock looks like a tempting short play here. iPad is a success but wild expectations. Apple is clearly a leader in their space but they also have a lot of companies gunning for their market share...

    Al Gore Accused Of Rape: Another Inconvenient Truth?

    Al Gore let money and fame corrupt him. It was apparant even before this came out unfortunately. Sorry if he was a hero to you or something... He's not the same guy who ran for president in 2000 that's for sure. I think he managed to keep himself relatively clean during his government career but...
