    Options play for AAPL earnings?

    He's right - if AAPL gets "middled" after earnings, then monkeys will start flying out of Steve Job's arse.

    Boone Pickens - contra indicator?

    He is playing the average investor like a fiddle. Do you REALLY think T-Bone would go on CNBC and show his hand for everyone to see? This guy is a billionaire for a reason. He was long the whole time at 100 and he is short now - hence the "oil to 125" comments. Read between the...

    Seems like a huge change in short-term sentiment. Sell in May and go away looms large, so things might get interesting real soon!

    Options, options, options

    Looks like you are going to immediately loose money tomorrow, since QQQQ is trading up over 1.5% in after hours. This is due to the positive earnings report by GOOG. Obviously, since you are a beginning trader, you did not take this into account. Part of becoming a successful trader is not...

    Buy google b4 earnings

    I propose doing nothing since there is no telling which way GOOG will go. Oh, and which ever way it goes it's going to move big time, so if you are on the wrong side it could cost you 10% easily. Pure gambilng.

    WaMu Falls on Goldman's Short Sale Recommendation

    So Goldman is interested in making a bid for WaMu? I wonder why they would need a retail distribution channel?

    Help with IB wont execute my limit option spread order..screenshot

    Specialists are not required to execute a spread order. Next time, leg out of the position - you will probably get better prices and quicker fills.

    Volcker Rips Bernanke A New A**hole

    I like how you have a recession indicated on your graph as if it's a known factor. Let's face it folks, Bernanke is a joke. My 2 year old son could probably do a better job than Benrnanke, since he would probably do nothing. He needs to be relieved at once - some jobs are just not for some...

    Isn't low growth with no inflation worse than low growth with inflation?

    Hey there Milton Freidman - ever heard of the word "stagflation"? In the Counselor's voice from South Park: "Stagflation is baiuhd, mn'kay.."

    Best Platform for trading futures options?

    You folks are also overlooking the fact that TOS pays a paltry interest rate on cash balances. This can add up to major opportunity costs over and above the higher comission costs, in comparison to IB. I'd say do a cost/benefit analysis. If TOS is under $2000 in additional...

    Bottoms CAN be picked

    In my own trading, what I have found out is that you CAN pick bottoms and tops, but you are only going to be correct about 30% of the time. So, instead of picking tops and bottoms, you are going to have a MUCH better chance for a profitable trade by going along with the trend, and expecting it...

    IB TWS is the most confusing trading platform I have seen

    If you think TWS is confusing, try TOS. You are probably the idiot here, since IB really goes out of their way to educate pikers like you to learn TWS.
