    Why is everyone up Sal's ass about shorting. If you take it personal that someone is long or short you are in the wrong buisiness. Short when you think it's going down and go long when you think its going up.

    Still Can't get it Right. I think its completely Subconciously

    Sometimes you need to reset and stop trading for a week or two. The market is not going anywhere and you can make money any day at anytime. Taking trades you know are wrong is so easy when you feel like you missed a move or when your set up is taking its time. When you start to feel like this...

    One large LCD screen or two smaller LCDs?

    I also bought some Acer 22" one for $119 and one for $149. Keep an eye out for rebates at Microcenter if there is one in your area. I plan on adding another. They are good for trading, but I use a better on for everyday use since the colors are a little washed out on the Acer's.

    Contango on rollover action

    Because most people need to see it repeat and then think, let's see if it repeats again and again, and by the time they decide to trade it it's over and never to be seen again. Although I think this contango will be here for a couple more expirations. I've played it long after the roll and sold...

    Option trading for a newbie

    The only problem I have with your style of trading is that when it comes to playing earnings you are either right or wrong.

    Option trading for a newbie

    Not to mention the huge premiums you end up paying. I'm not trying to knock you Ben, but I've blown up many accounts trading they way you are. Get a couple of McMillan's books. They are well worth the money.
