Hmm. ONCE I subscribed after I found an offer that was really cheap, so I didn't care about that money - I think it was like $60 for 18 months or something. I wasn't planning to do the trades, unless they started to work really good or something. As I followed it, and the results seemed...

OK, thanks for the reply. I might try paper trading these for a bit as well and see what happens (I am usually quite cautious with Iron Condors, etc.). JJacksET4

Huh? I said that I would not be able to raise money. People give money like crazy it seems to scammers who are smooth talkers and have no proof their system works. My point is that I could show absolute PROOF of my system and no one would probably invest because: 1. I am not a...

You know, it frustrates me - I could come up with a good strategy using options trading and/or stocks, and I bet I'd have a tough time raising $100K from other investors! How people could have been so stupid for example to basically invest ALL of their money they made in their entire lifes...

Josh, just to point it out since you were looking for comments - assuming I am understanding your position correctly, I think there would be 2 main risks: 1. In a very large move, either the calls or puts for the short week and the longer week would go deep in the money and would just about...

Delta, Interesting question/idea. I have a couple of questions for you if you don't mind: 1. Have you just been waiting until options expiry to close the options, or have you been more aggressive in managing the trades (i.e. stop loss, rolling options, etc.). Also, have you used any...

There is very little or nothing that is risk free that will pay much of course. One thing I like to put money into to try and get a better return is CEFs (Closed End Funds). You can find alot about them at www.cefconnect.com. There are CEFs that invest mostly in bonds, some invest in...

It's crazy fears that lead to panicy actions like this: http://www.latimes.com/news/la-fg-china-iodine-salt-20110318,0,4281601.story?track=rss " China tried to quell panic buying of iodized salt Thursday after grocery stores across the country were emptied of the seasoning by hordes of...

Wow, you were back on here fast - just waiting to respond I guess. OK, lets put it this way - there was no one asking anyone anywhere if they have some available and if not, where could they get it, OK? Is that simple enough for you to understand? There is NO panic situation whatsoever...

Hype. Just for the record, I'm on the west coast and don't see anyone panic buying anything - not saying noone is ordering online, but this kind of reporting brings images of mile long lines at drug stores, but it's not happening.

I don't know when it will happen, but I think eventually even positions such as teachers can be replaced by computers. Maybe not 100%, but you could have a "teacher" walking around a room with 300-500 students who are all in front of a PC terminal learning with online lessons, virtual teachers...

But this is true for athletes as well - do good in college, get $50 million to sign with the Raiders - a few years later you proved you sucked and you still get your money. Same with head coaches, etc. Sure they can get fired, but they still get their money for the 2-14 season. There are 100s...

Saudi Arabia king offers $150BN for facebook No, the report got this wrong. The corrected story is: Facebook offers $150BN for Saudi Arabia :)

Sounds like a perfect setup for contrarian investors. :)

Howard, first I assume you meant "So my risk is $9.50 and reward of $.50". The problem is that if you have a stop loss in place, then you may not make the 100% sometimes when you would have otherwise. I probably can't say it as clearly as I would like but Larry McMillian reviews this in his...

I voted for $3000-over, but the real question IMO is how high can silver go? There is more gold out there compared to silver then people think. I saw an article that I think was correct that said if you ask everyone in the world which is rarer, gold or silver, 99.99% will say Gold and say it...

Yeah, but when AOL was at its peak, many people used it to actually connect to the internet and therefore paid a fee such as $20/month - they didn't just get money from ads. Also, AOL kind of tricked some people into thinking certain sites were only for AOL customers, etc. As far as I...

I must be about the youngest adult tech-knowledgeable guy (VB, VC++, Java, etc, etc.) who has NEVER, NEVER EVER used FB. :) JJacksET4

Yeah, but this is the EXACT same thing that AOL had about 10 years ago - I used to have their standard full paid subscription and you would log in, check your email - check the "AOL news" check the "AOL stocks", "AOL Sport", whatever - they had pages for AOL Music, AOL Videos, downloads...

Yes, but at Feb expiration, the markets were quite high, which was very good for bull put spreads as OptionsMaven is putting on. Right now, the bull put spreads are deeply ITM on the wrong side and I don't know that his general plan includes doing anything to mitigate the risks - just put the...
