Hitman was welcome to share his trading journals and experiences here, until he started abusing the boards for blatent recruitment drives for his firm. He was warned about this once, to which he agreed not to post advertorials/recruitment pitches, then later ignored that agreement and went back...

I moderate all threads in both the Trading and Options forums. And as far as your "source", if it was posted on a message board, it must be true, right? Just like everything every person posts on these boards must be Gospel. And if Terranova "practically owned this site", and paid all that...

Let me remind you that all deleting of posts on this forum are done by me, not Baron, and I was never instructed by him to remove posts critical of a certain firm or sponsor. I delete posts containing personal attacks against another member, profanity, or blatent solicitations or sales for...

And who exactly is it you got this reliable "rumor" from? And what do you assume they pay him that kind of money for? Hosting their banner ads? No way. Before posting rumors as fact and making assumptions, you would do well to state the source of such supposed information.

How exactly do you know that Baron "rakes it in" from this site? Has he posted a financial statement? Or are you assuming such from the banner ads? Having worked on many websites, I can say that most revenues generated from banners, et al, usually just help recoup the monthly website related...

We moderators don't receive any monetary compensation for moderating on these forums. We do it just for the sake of helping maintain these boards as one of the best trading related forums online. That, and we clearly have no life.

Just to make it clear-- Baron does not usually delete the actual posts or threads here on the Trading forum--I do. I have a certain set of guidelines by which a post or thread may be deemed inappropriate. HOWEVER, be aware that a large number of posts that get deleted are due to other fellow...

Okay, gang, I'm only going to reiterate this one last time. Posts containing interpersonal attacks and insults, blatent sales pitches, profanity, and information otherwise not pertinent to trading will be deleted. Members who continue to abuse these guidelines will be submitted to Baron for...

My name is Zach. When I was in high school, my friends used to call me Zboy, and I've since used that as a handle for my business, online names, etc. 2854-A is the address and room in the hospital where my grandmother passed away.

Only go with the Feb calls if you buy deep in the money calls. That way you're not paying for much, if any time value, just mainly intrinsic value. Otherwise, go out to March or later options.

Yes, please inform me of any posts that involve recruitment efforts or questionable motives. Simply click on the Kill link on the questionable post and I will review and remove it.

Yes, in that case ME is still on your hard drive. However, I think there is an option during XP installation where you can choose whether to keep the old OS or not.

You don't necessarily have to reformat the hard drive, although that is the cleanest and optimal way to install a new OS, as there is usually residual "leftovers" from the previous OS on the hard drive if you upgrade over it. However, if that is something you don't want to do, you should still...

Hi Tony, First, I'm very upset that you didn't call while you were in Miami. I owe you and Jodi dinner, and my Jodi and I just got married! :D Now that that's out of the way, I respectfully think you're nuts. While I don't necessarily subscribe to what most of Wall Street spews, I do...

I often will trade options for swing trades where I don't want a lot of exposure for several day or week long positions. Spreads can be a problem. However, here are some observations: 1. You can minimize the time decay aspect by buying options with expiration several months away. It will...

There's a saying--"Those who can, do. Those who can't, teach." Perhaps it should be updated to say "Those who can't but wish they could, spend all their time talking to others about it." I've found that as I've become more successful and steady with my trading, I've spent less time on these...

I stand corrected. However, that's still only twice the speed of jogging and slower than the speed with which one could get to the same destination on a bicycle, let alone an automobile. 17 mph is fine for leisure activities, but in today's fast paced world where time is at a premium, that...

I think this invention has been way overhyped. I also think that in the consumer market it will end up as more of a luxury toy than a replacement for personal transportation. First, what if you need to carry cargo? It looks like you'll have to carry it on your back, so forget a trip to the...

Support and resistance is still just as valid now as at any time. The difference is that resistances have been getting busted with more ease than previously, making them seem less relevant. For the past year or so, supports were the ones that tended to get breached easily. I personally...

As others here have pointed out, as traders we have to take what the market gives us. From a macro-economic big picture point of view, it is very unlikely the bottom is in, as most people have never seen bear markets or the bear market rallies that can occur, which can be powerful and fool...
