    Can the 10% borrow money from the banks to double or triple their income ? After all, trading is a business, most founders of an enterprise need to borrow money at the beginning. Just curious. :p :p :p

    Exchanges(CBOE)/IB - What is this trick?

    Hi, It was a Good-Until-Cancelled Buy-To-Close order. I am basically a premium seller, who try to take advantage of the time decay. Hence, I frequently enter BTC orders to close out option positions. :p :p :p :cool: :cool: :cool:

    Exchanges(CBOE)/IB - What is this trick?

    Similar incident has occurred several weeks ago. I entered a BTC limit order @ 0.15 for an INTC option. The ask price then dropped to 0.1. I cancelled the order. Re-enter it @ 0.1 and was filled instantaneously. :p :p :p :D :D :D

    Why do traders need more than 1 monitor??

    I only trade with a laptop. So I am stuck with at least one LCD screen. I tried very hard in the last six months, but I still cannot find a notebook with zero TFT screen. :p :p :p :D :D :D

    Why do you trade what you do?

    You have to enjoy your work to excel. There is a big difference between a job and a career. Hence, successful trader will likely find a style/instrument that matches his/her personality. Just my two cents. :p :p :p :D :D :D

    Remembering the internet mania!

    One of my friends worked at BVSN. He kept on buying BVSN stocks, when it went down in fall of 2000. He lost a lot of money. Then, he was axed by the company. :( :( :( :( :( :(

    How do I compete "They"?

    IMHO: Trading is a business. Just consider this is part of the overhead. Since the Smart Money may have information that is not available to public, try not to predict. Instead, try to take advantage of the over-reaction of the herd. Just my two cents. :eek: :eek: :eek: :) :) :)

    College Students and Grads.

    IMHO: Even though one can get these decent positions, the day he starts is likely the date that he stops doing research. Drafting grant proposals by day and by night will be the main focus for the next five to six years. He has to publish or perish. :( :( :( :( :( :(

    What's Your Favorite Underlying Stocks To Trade Options On?

    I am trading mainly QQQ and MSFT options now(over 56% of my trading gains since Jan 1, 2003 are related to QQQ puts and calls). However, the MSFT market makers really get on my nerve in the last few days. I am slowly closing the MSFT option positions. I plan to trading QQQ options exclusively...

    what happened to all the bears?

    Usually, the bears speak loudly during a major pullback. They often say little during a big rally. The oppoiste is true for the bulls. The behavior of the stock market in the last few weeks explains it all. :p :p :p :D :D :D
