As you can see in another thread started today, the dumbasses are out again.

Depends, it could be buy puts, buy stock, stocks heading higher. Had this happen on Tuesday in a stock BPUR. I recognised it and went long. Probably takes some experience though to see it happening.

I sold my net long option position in DNA on Monday, felt too good plus the futures expire in June. Wouldn't surprise me to see a rough couple of weeks and then rocket into July earnings.

There are two types of people who complain, people who just want to vent once in a while, most of us are in this category, and the bitter losers. The latter doesn't want to accept their own shortcommings and therefore they blame the exchanges or the product itself. They'll show up by the...

Confusion ought to bring opportunity then. When do we have to worry about this, now or beginning of next year? I don't have any positions with stocks paying dividends, so no rush for me. I had planned to work up my own model, or at least investigate other choices, over this summer for options...

This is going to fuck up option pricing models.

Btw, I sold that 1 by 2 into the strength today.

Big buying going on in the BPUR 5p, people are buying puts buying stock, stocks moving higher.

Rudolf, Maybe you or your wife could get a a graduate degree from a university here. I think there is a provision that people with such degress are allow to work here after their completion and eventually become citizens. However, it may be limited to certain areas(I think it is) that are...

I'm listening to the BPUR conference call. The FDA approval for their facilities could come down early June.

I meant to post something along the lines of, "you're nuts". I mean that in a flattering way First off, the position in BPUR isn't a jelly roll, but a good old fashioned time spread. A "jelly roll" is a lock, in other words, the positions P/L is theoretically already made and all you have to...

One last thing about biotechs, what is amazing is that this news didn't seam to get out. Most of these trials are done through the same people over and over. You would have thought that somewhere somebody would have leaked. My brother has worked for a series of biotechs and in most cases, he...

I agree with Optionsplayer. It seams that everybody was so negative on this drug before hand that nearly everyone was stunned when the news came out. From the Yahoo who downgraded the stock that morning: Rating Change Biotechnology Genentech, Inc. Holy Cow! Our Timing Couldn’t Have...

Wow, they aren't even related? What are the odds? I never bothered to look into it.

The funny thing is he mocked Metooxx for being pithy. Whomever Metooxx is, he advocates finding a low tax scheme to help multiply your profits. It seams like very sound advice. Depending on how the current tax legislation comes out(plus my end of year P&L), I may follow it.

They are at least estranged brothers right? Hey Def, things are better in HK?

Point man, I read your thread about people attacking you for whatever and after reading your comments; it's all bullshit mr. QDZ. I worked in the ED pit and you have no idea what's going on. An example , are these guys pricks? My boss would tutor inner city children, yeah that's right you...

I wouldn't disagree but many MM on the floor never make that kind of many either. Also, there are some very good reasons that the business has been trending, sharply I would say, towards large groups and banks. This is not easy and there isn't a lot of edge.

Right now I just use my firm's software, INQuote, and supplement it with an excel worksheet when neccessary. I am going to get some additional software because not have a proper risk model has cost me money. What is Osimulator? I have been playing phone tag my broker for the last week to find...

LOL, we're gonna start getting shows from the floor.
