OK guys, how do we define smart money anymore. What is it like 80% of the total investment money is controlled by the institutions, hedge funds, mutual funds, pension funds etc. That leaves just 20% of the retail investors, the perception seems to be that everyone but retail investors are...

yes, like 2% is any worse than 5% that it was earning before with the dollar collapsing. Money flow will probably go to destressed debt and back to commodities if at all, or will just stay on the sidelines for now. Look what happened to the legendry Bill Miller, now he looks like the fool of...

yes, right, we need these value investors, how else will we be able to sell the rallies

why are you busy pumping the markets, I see little logic in any of your postings, markets went up and down on all 4 trading days last week, what makes you think they are not going to 11500 soon...

agreed, but let us not use Silver an an example, this thing is the single most speculative play around. I am getting me some of those commodities on Monday...

well said, and I think that we would not have had these 5 good years if it were not for the ultra low rates, rates at 1% was just rediculous, its not too hard to spur the economy in the short run by these low rates, people buy homes, the prices keep going up, they dip in their home equity, and...

Yeah, sure, the market sentiment changes on an hourly basis, check out the videos on Bloomberg, one day all bullish and next day all bearish. The markets will not go down in a straight line, there will be rallies, just how many of these rallies did we have from 2000 to 2003 when the markets did...

Good post, but I scale out even if my position is 5% of my portfolio, and I am 95% cash. If you do not scale out, you are letting your position become a binary event, loss or profit.

no one uses Black Schoeles for option pricing, it is just a reference...

are you for real, trying to create panic about your own broker, I doubt you are legit...

I am a quant really who has nothing better to do in free time, but to trade from his own account. Not a salesman, but I do not blame you, I can smell some of the suggestions are coming from the sales people...

you sir should be running for the president, you got my vote, a refreshing reflection on USA

a darn good point, that is what I have been thibking, I have my account at TS and I am worried as hell, Lyonds of London, who gives a fck anymore, if BSC could fall like that, I trust no one and no insurance except for coins of gold under the mattress...

There are too many parasites in the system, that is a lot of people making a living without putting anything into the economy and the economy will clean them out in due time. Parasites = mortgage brokers and real estate agents

Send that to the Journal of Finance to publish, its a breakthrough, did you seriously think that anyone does not know that...

I read the ESI that I got from them, but they did not explain the mathematics or any calculations. It is simple to see that the leveraged short ETFs are short volatility by their very nature, does anyone have the math of how they do the rebalancing etc...

ok, do make sure that you stay long and get back to us how well you did at the end of the year. It has been a bear market since last fall, people just do not want to admit it...

point taken, but you are not giving me any good alternatives. You just complained about IB, what do you use dude...

I got a give it to you, decoding the posts here is like decoding the market and you have to read between the lines. It is not too hard to get a genuine post, apparently the p!ssed off traders are overly negative and the pumpers are paid. Any how, please stick to the topic. One of the...

I like TS, except for the platform getting hung now and then. I do not make a living out of trading, but I still trade a lot. What I am looking for is low fees, an acceptable platform and a reputable trader (do not want to lose my money to a broker rather than the market). The only reason...
