    Short Arry - Major Dilution Coming.

    This stock always runs up, then they dilute it with another offering and it falls 50% over time. Check it out. They have no forseeable product. It is purely a discovery company and they keep losing money. Eventually this game will wear out. The insiders are dumping shares despite it going...

    EAT has to be short of century.

    I just don't understand this stock..keeps going up despite the fact their same store sales are going down across the board. Factor in a coming minimum wage hike and this company is going to get clobbered. Also, people will cut back eating out once their house implodes next year. Yet...

    What salary would it take for you to quit this?

    Hi I actually have 20 years experience, the past 8 as a buyside trader so saying I have only done this for 5 months is a little misleading. I have only been doing it on my own (not working for someone) for 5 months. I am making less but WAY HAPPIER. I was miserable in the corporate world..now...

    What salary would it take for you to quit this?

    If someone offered you a real life job instead of being a self employed day trader, how much would the salary have to be to forgo this? I was just offered a nice salary/bonus but it will be a grind of a job (non-stop phones, stress etc). I have been so happy the past 5 months trading my...

    Is this silly or what. am I supposed to help an automator to put me out of work?

    Don I was on the buyside and squeezed out due to algorithms. Don't you think the days of buyside traders and retail traders are done? I expect 90 percent of those jobs will vanish. I would even bet that the people on the floor will be gone. thoughts? I feel rather screwed over as I spent alot...

    How does one "find oneself"??

    I for one do not miss the backstabbing, corporate bullshit, kissassing, having others root you down, etc etc...I have come to cherish my time alone working. If you want to socialize, join some things after market hours. I am so anti-corporate. I busted my ass for years and made the owners...

    Question for Mark to Market Traders

    Do you write off your expenses on Schedule C? The IRS instructions on this are so confusing that I can see why there are so many differing opinions... Based on the instructions: You put your gains and or losses on Form 4797 including unclosed positions on 12/31. You write off your...

    How does one "find oneself"??

    Man, I can relate except that I love trading, just not for some evil company. I love doing it just for me. To be honest, having backstabbing co-workers and all the politics that come with it isn't as glamourous as it may appear. If you want socialization, join some clubs or groups. That way, you...
