    Trading is easy, very easy, damn easy

    Technically trading is VERY easy. You just open and account and click BUY or SELL...congrats you just traded. Now to actually LEARN to make consistent profits from trading is a whole different story.

    If this is trading...then I quit

    Then open a personal account and trade for YOURSELF. You don't have to work for a prop shop or on a floor to be a trader and enjoy doing it.

    Who would win in a fight, Trader or Investor?

    depends on which 5 years we are talking about. If an investor started in '04 - '05 then he would be WAY down right now.

    Am I on the right track?

    The main benefit of options is the numerous "plays" you can put on to make money in ALL sorts of ways, regardless of what the market is doing even if it is doing nothing. But that is way to much to detail out in a forum. Yes if you just buy a Call option there it does mean the stock has to...

    Am I on the right track?

    While all of that is correct a call option limits your loss upfront, yes of course you can always sell that option if the stock moves against you or the setup becomes invalidated BUT it prevents you from getting prematurely stopped out when you jump in too early. If you buy a Call option for say...

    Am I on the right track?

    Have you considered options? If you think XYZ stock is going to go up in the next 2-3 months you can purchase a call option 4-6 months out and limit your risk to the purchase price of the option without having to worry about getting stopped out.

    $73,000 for a 1 night stay in hospital because of a snake bite

    I still haven't hear a valid argument as to why I should pay for health care for some lazy couch potato. As far as illegal aliens are concerned, if they want health care they can go the F home!

    Cash for clunkers will get many people even more indebted

    You act like cash customers are a dime a dozen so salesmen can pass up credit customers and wait around for a cash customer. Yes if you identify yourself as a cash customer up front you might get better more attentive service but you will not get a lower price than a credit customer. Yes the...

    Cash for clunkers will get many people even more indebted

    You are right cash is that. So are you suggesting a salesman is going to pass up a 2 hour credit customer in hopes of getting a RARE cash customer next? No they won't. EXACTLY I couldn't have made a better argument as to why they will give the same discounts to a credit customer as a...

    fundamental value of stocks/elite trader's dumbest question

    Maybe I can explain it in terms of baseball cards. Say this is a players rookie year (IPO) but people expect great things from him and some start collecting his rookie card (stock) expecting it to rise in price. Now let say he isn't living up to the hype (bad earnings reports, low or no...

    Cash for clunkers will get many people even more indebted

    Three things: First IF what you say is true and cash is better to a dealer than someone wanting credit FROM the dealer, then someone walking in with cash they got via loan from their personal credit union would be the same right? The dealer gets his cash either way. Second, as others have...
