hey, does that mean i need to find my passport? florida is only good for cheesy family vacations (guilty), boating(guilty), fishing (guilty), and things like that. for trading, business advancement, etc any good northern city will do. at 19, you can try it anyway and figure out what we...

maybe some of you guys are not as well read or live very far from the city....spitzer is a heir to substantial family funds. see the link and note one estimate of his family wealth in the article. he did imo misuse his power and probably felt he was above the law. what started this whole thing...

i guess i must be extremely bored here on a rainy day to respond to yet another complete et moron. what is wrong with some of you people?

he is whining because he purports to be a spread trader ; as the market approaches his put credit spreads he gets killed. you can tell how much pain he is in as his nasty trolling posts increase in frequency. there is no easy money and you can feel his pain every time we retest lows or highs...

wow, thank you for the post. i will forward this and hope it makes a difference. of course, chances are it will not as they drank the kool aid. as i trade mostly index options for a good living for years and have some good friends (professionals included)who also do; 25 % monthly returns will...

that deserves a repeat! also, of all the companies in the world to short calls; sirius would be the last one for obvious reasons. go merger!

i have done 100's of globex spreads through ib's option trader. click on option spreads in option trader , then choose "generic". works for me every time.

very interesting indeed. i hope they are not catching a falling knife.

southern ct. 45 miles from midtown manhattan. to add fuel to the housing bear fire; it took 15 years to reach 1989 prices. condo's were hit especially hard. i was gone in 10. the point i do want to make is things did bottom (as i say they will in 08) and started the rebound over the next decade...

ok, i bought my first home (condo) in 1990 at an auction. one year earlier it went for 330k; i paid 166k and they threw in a 30' boat slip that separately went for 40k. so, a 50% drop (oversold imo)one year of stagnant (s-l crisis) prices and then buying started real good in 92. prices did not...

nice idea. bringing back some memories. some of those old threads (like regarding ib) are real interesting to read from today's perspective. i am not the oldest or a huge poster; but here every day..despite the influx of lesser quality people recently.

has anyone considered the fact that possibly one reason the 1mm home has gone down to 850k is that obtaining the necessary credit has gone into an "oversold" area? once the credit becomes more readily available, prices will stop falling so much. again, i live this stuff every day as an owner of...

i hope the recent surge in nutjobs does not scare an apparent expert option trader such as H*Pi away.

we all know by now you cannot be serious. also i must set the record straight to those (therefore, not directed to the option trader) who are contemplating real estate investments that have no experience. i will not and most likely cannot prove that i hold a good deal of properties, both...

mav, all you did was to insult the imbeciles here in a politically correct and subtle fashion. we all know there are more assholes than ever here. if i was him, i would never answer to these yo yo's. let his current and future clients decide his fate. i do believe rally makes a good point even...

day must not understand or have a conception of what a trader is. he really does not belong here. what a great day for "traders"....

all true; but how come these people do not (or did not) take the time to study some history? this could not be easier with the internet. as part of a family who invests (besides actively trading both short and long) in real estate both commercial and residential; we have had to sit on properties...

too funny.... this complete moron is just another type who "hopes" and has never seen or studied the history of the markets/economy beyond a couple years. you are one of many here. the only reason i am remarking is i can see some of the great traders here finally giving up posting and it...

ok, first, i think RE brokers are scum bags who could not give a shit about their clients.in my case, i do not believe my head is in the sand; i live this everyday. my trading has always been with a bearish bias; never ever been a bull. i just notice that when we are in a crisis, many people...

as someone who has witnessed 35 plus years(23 yrs as an adult) of the construction industry ups and downs i can agree and disagree. this downturn will "over sell" to the down side; but i see 3 years max until people forget and start speculating again. the drive to buy a home and maintain it is...
