    Finding Trades for Options

    Most stock traders use multiple stocks b/c the only make money if the stock is moving. It can move up or it can move down but it has to move. Once the stock starts moving sideways the traders need to look for something else or wait it out. With options you don't really need a scanner. You...

    Crude is cheap at $113/barrel

    Sad to say but the oil/gas companies are going to keep messing around and find themselves governmentally regulated like phone and electricity companies were for so many years....although not for quite the same reasons.

    Crude is cheap at $113/barrel

    It really doesn't matter anyway. Even if oil dropped to $2 per barrel the oil companies see that people will pay $3+ per gallon of gas and will keep the prices pretty much where they are anyway. Same with the proposed Gas Tax suspension. Do you really think the gas companies will lower gas...

    No Boot Screen, No Beep, No Nuthin'

    Adding one thing to this, before trashing it swap to one of the other memory sticks then retry it...just to be sure you didn't try with the bad stick. Also to check the PS you can use a voltmeter to check the voltage leves at each of the points....tedious I know but could end up saving you...

    Crude is cheap at $113/barrel

    Wow. I have no idea how many ounces are in a barrel but if it actually went to $932 per ounce gas would be at least $300 per gallon...I'd be buying some horses and stagecoach.

    Crude is cheap at $113/barrel

    When it comes to crude it's not a supply and demand issue. There is currently plenty of crude to completely supply 100% of the refining needs. The declining dollar does play a small part in driving up the price but is NOT the big factor. So what is driving the price up so high? SPECULATORS...

    Wednesday a guaranteed mess

    It's really is funny. On one hand you have JackStone running around preaching the end of the world is coming and on the other you have HFT2 running around trying to blow sunshine up every bodies ass. Each one trying to push their unipolar mindset onto everyone else as if their opinion is the...

    An Excellent Article From the NY Times

    You are correct that cane is more efficient but parts of Louisiana are know for it's sugar cane, so there is more than just Florida it can be grown.

    Warning: The Next Wave Down Starts Now

    Anyone who uses Cramer as a credible source to back his claims and to try and make himself look knowledgeable has no business trading much less giving anyone trading advice. The guy talking at the first of the video discredits Cramer which is a good thing, but as far as relevance, the video is 6...

    Its all in the testes

    Ok here is what I don't understand. In another thread here today someone posted a link that said 80% of all trades going through are automated. So if most trades are automated how are hormones affecting the market? That little 20% that still trades manually is making all the market moves?

    Do Trendlines work?

    I don't have pink lines, yellow circles, and red boxes. All I have are pink hearts, yellow moons, green clovers, and blue diamonds.

    Hiding Volume - How to do it

    You can partially hide some of your volume and conceal what you are doing by splitting the order amongst different ECN's. Another tactic is the old bait and switch that the big boys like to do. For instance, if you see GSCO on the Bid but down a couple of levels looking for 10k shares then...

    TOS price

    IB I know for sure they won't...b/c I asked specifically. I think it's simply b/c IB's commission schedule is too complex with multiple tiers and different rates based on the premium of the option etc. As far as TS I have no idea I didn't ask. I went with the Tradeking commission rate of...

    Think or Swim

    I used the TOD desktop for paper trading for a long time before actually completing the account application and funding. I just created an account on the website, DL'ed the software and used it. You have to make sure you are logging into "paperMoney" and not "Live" or "Investools paperMoney". If...

    Warning: The Next Wave Down Starts Now

    So your saying the world ended a few years ago?!? You are in more dire need of prozac than any body I have ever met. You really seem to feel you are living in some post apocalyptic world the likes of which Stephen King might write about.

    Don't B Stupid when it come to AAPL

    I tend to agree with Gary here only since it will probably take a couple of days to get down to the lower end of the channel it will probably only get down to 140 instead of 135.
