Holding onto an AIG shares would be a major misallocation of capital. Everything happens for a reason, there is a definite reason the market values AIG shares at a buck and change. Do you honestly want to hold onto shares of a company that needs to buy fed issued commercial paper just to make...

Interesting point.

+295 working towards consistent profitability

Watch out on low volume next week. Money flowing like water = bad because guard goes down.

Do you make 500/ day parabolic?

Alot of traders, new ones in particular want it all and want it now. You can't make a killing on every trade. A rare trade you will but not the average trade. 500 a day is possible. A consistent 500 a day is impossible, but 500 a day average is possible.

They do whatever they fuck they want haven't you noticed? If you own an ounce of gold you will be the richest man in 100 miles in 5 years.

Can anybody answer this question? thanks

GLD holds physical.

I don't know but it would be bad if ETFC failed. All that 1000 new accounts a day talk, that would be a nightmare for the SIPC. My understanding is just because something isn't covered doesn't mean the SIPC won't work to sort it out. People with futures positions have gotten their positions...

Is there a limit to number uncovered options you can write? I know it varies per broker, but brokers never seem to say how many uncovered options you can write. All I've seen is brokers requiring 30,000 or so ( in the case of OXPS) to write uncovered options on your account. It never lists how...
