You mean there is no way he could change the thread's title any more or else he would have done it ALREADY?

Is there any way you could now change the title of this thread to" taking 410K to 410 by year end" or something along those lines? Seriously what made you pick such a bold title for your thread in the first place?

I was having a squabble with a friend about C as he holds it. He thinks since this stock had been way above $10 before the recession began, then it should go back up to at least $9-10 or even higher now that we are slowly getting "out" of recession. So is he being quite realistic or is he...

If I were you, I would have sold it in late April/early May, when it seemed it's not going any higher than $270. Then, I would buy it back ONLY when/if, A: it becomes cheaper again or for any price less than what I sold OR B: it kept rallying above $270 shortly after I sold it. This...

so did anyone get to buy Accenture NYSE:ACN for a penny today?

For a moment I said to myself Oh My fuc#ing Go$, maybe some other Pakistani terrorist blew up Wall St, but then checked the news...nothing had happened. this was the only thing that came to mind as Nasdaq plunged 8% in just a few minutes.

Don't cross or get too close to any borders illegally, go to any Iranian embassy or mail your documents in for a tourist visa.

How come nobody mentioned Iran as a Tax efficient place...all you hear about this country is "Ahmadinejad"... " nuclear program" I am a native of Iran myself and know that Banks in Iran pay relatively higher interest rates on long term deposits (i.e. 5 year investments) compared to Canada for...

These are some of the NASDAQ's biggest gainers and losers from Feb1- Feb 26. I am not trading any longer, but If I were to trade and hold these positions for 2-4 weeks, I would go short on the gainers (on the left) and long on the losers (on the right). What do you think about this idea...

Thanks, good advice. That's what I am doing now, looking to make and save money outside the stock market and at the same time "staring" at stocks movements and developing new strategies for a future come-back to trading. I suspended my account about a month ago.

Thanks oraclewizard77. Your advice makes good sense to me, specially keeping an Excel-file record of the trades. However, I incurred all those losses mainly due to hastily shorting/buying, so this is (my 1st rule) going to be my main focus in the future trades when I get back to the market again.

This is unrelated to the OP's question. But I can easily copy ALL my trades/transaction records from Questrade and paste them in to an Excel spreadsheet, and calculate the "SUM" of P/L, mine of course turned out -$$$$, so I don't owe any taxes to the Canadian government for 2009.

Paper trading just don't make sense to me and I cant do it... I don't know why? I would rather use $500 real money to trade in order to learn and test my strategies.

Questrade in Canada charges min $5- max $10/trade depending on the# of shares. No software fees I paid.

Thanks for the tips. I will definitely consider this one.

I completely agree with you.

I am working on developing a new strategy now and also looking for a job for a few months. And I borrowed that money from my father and will pay it back.

Thanks for your advice, but can you give me some rules if mine aren't? Whatever they are, they discipline me and save me from big losses! I read somewhere that, Jesse Livermore lost big money when he didn't follow his own rules.
