    Have you read The Bible of Options Strategies?

    4.5 stars from 61 people at Amazon, paid special attention to the negative reviews. There are some gems in there. It rarely gets as detailed as this: (quoted from Amazon.com) At first glance, I - like other reviewers - thought that Cohen had written a nice reference where one could quickly...

    Is Trading Just Guessing?

    Guessing is not a great choice when you try to describe trading. A trade does not consist of an entry only. Are you guessing if and when you enter, guessing again if you move your stop to breakeven, and guessing again if you don't increase your target and let the trade hit your target (ie. you...

    Is the market in an uptrend now??

    SPY ended on the high, at 116+ right? Now its down after hours. Still the middle of the range, and considering the 1 month low was on the 4th or so, that's still pretty neutral to me, but this is you, your money. If you want to take a long position, take it, and put a stop in where you know...

    Is the market in an uptrend now??

    Your timeframe is weeks to a month or so, right? 1 month high is 121+ 1 month low is 107+ On the SPY we are at 114, the middle of the range. I don't have a bias, looks like 50/50 to me. You could trade it either way with money management rules.

    went long SPY

    Exactly! I mean, that must be what he's going for right? There is no reason I can see to be long right now, except if you want the absolutely GREAT feeling of picking the bottom. That is the only thing I can reason out of this. So, if you are going to bottom pick, you would buy as each new...

    went long SPY

    Why insist on countertrend? I mean, just as common sense, wouldn't it have made sense to follow the day's trend down and then buy it at the bottom? Or maybe even follow tomorrow's trend too?

    sports betting vs trading

    Someone paraphrased once about this: to the non-trader, trading does look like gambling, so that the non-trader tends to think of someone wanting to learn to trade will always look like they have a mental disorder. http://www.thefix.com/content/basketball-junkie-comes-clean-new-memoir 1...

    Russia says better to save Greece from a default

    Its not just Greece. Germany's policies run riot over all other countries in the EU. They are the big winners because they are exporters who have effectively captured their customers, and the ECBs economic policies are for them, and to a lesser extent, France. It's pretty damned rich for them...

    Rick Perry stocks / Mitt Romney stocks

    If Obama wanted to get re-elected he would have spent the first 4 filibuster proof months of his term working on jobs. He got a mediocre stimulus and moved on to health care. He deserves what he gets this election. He made his choices.

    US adds ZERO jobs=QE III here we come

    They do it because the executive and legislative branches of the federal government are hopelessly deadlocked. Everyone saw that during the stupid debt ceiling debate, right? It's happening with every budgetary measure. They are the only ones that have the authority to do what they want by a...

    what's your Jack Hershey trading system win/loss ratio ?

    Yeah, sorry. I read that and I was shocked. My question was a reaction to that shock. I read further on, and discovered that other people were shocked as well! I might adopt a policy of deleting old posts like Jack Hershey does.
