Seminars with names like: "Wealth You Deserve" always make me cringe. Why does someone "deserve" wealth?

I was skeptical at first, but with your kind of track record...

Dude, how many separate threads are you going to start where you ask the same question?

For you folks that follow these two stocks, which do you prefer and why? Yes, I know, both are volatile, tied to the housing market and subject to yield chasing = they are quite risky. However, if you are willing to accept a good deal of risk, which do you like? I lean towards NLY over the...

Try Stockfetcher. It's free if you can handle things delayed by a week. Otherwise it's like $8.95/month or something like that. It's pretty powerful.

Your reply makes him have to go "P".

Is it cost effective from a commission standpoint? Can't see how many legs/contracts are needed to get the profile, but it looks fairly complicated. Also, I don't really see the point of the right portion of the graph. If you get a 10% move, you start to lose. If you get a nice big move, you...

By "met", do you mean you met her on the Internet (dating site, Craigslist, etc) or met at some event, etc and have physically interacted?

Unstable means exactly...what? Slow? Crashing your machine? I guess if you always update to the most recent rev immediately that could happen. I'd recommend getting a stable version of both TWS (or the gateway) and the API and then sticking with them until forced to update. If you're looking...

You don't pay dividends if you are short options. Dividends are only paid if you are short the actual shares.

MO & CAG. Smokes and food additives. People buy smokes before they buy their processed food.

Some comparisons between TOS and IB: Fees: ------- IB - Min monthly commissions/data fee (low, but still a cost). Quarterly IRA fee. Order modification fee, which varies depending on what exchange you use. Per contract commission is less. TOS - $15 per strike exercise fee. Data and order...

I really liked the commission free ETF setup at Fidelity because they offered two of the really liquid ones (IWM and EEM) with great option depth. Unfortunately, they partnered up with Blackrock and swapped 10 ETF, thereby dropping IWM and EEM. The replacements are IJR and IEMG (dropping volumes...

What metric are you using to determine that Facebook is more fundamentally sound than Apple?

If you're going to use real cash, you may want to check out the mini-options to give yourself a bit of a better chance by starting as small as possible. They are currently offered on 5 different symbols, including AAPL, GOOG, and SPY.

The sadly ironic thing is that the people most likely to start/propose a war are also the least likely to be directly involved in it...

Would the Windows Communication Foundation be a possible solution? I had this very same problem over a year ago and a first thought was to do something with WCF rather than the parsed text file approach. I haven't worked on the project in over a year due to time constraints, but I did get to...

Wouldn't that get you split down the middle by an Enron/Lehman, etc? I would think you'd want buy 2, sell one ratio backspread: 1) Can use ATM/OTM so you get better spreads. 2) You don't eliminate volatility/theta exposure, but you might be able to reduce your risk as opposed to outright...

I've noticed custom studies disappearing occasionally, but after the most recent update yesterday, every custom study was gone. I reverted to the previous build and they are back, so I'm just wondering if anybody else has seen this before.

You might want to check Ninjatrader as I know they offer PnF charts. I can't recall if they require tick data to create them, though. Price is right to take a look (free).
