“I really don't wanna chase a run up. I'm already psychologically destabilized on that trade. If it goes counter, I'll second guess myself. There will be other trades. I think we are close to the end of the business cycle. I want to go long volatility and short directionally. Did some...

Xandman, don't be mad! You have a chance to enter MSFT with Calls dated out to March-June. HPQ and MSFT are on sale today! My Options Amazon (They will expire worthless tomorrow, stock is being pinned.) CME March 2014 $80 buy $3.4 HPQ...

I love this, excellent ideas! Are any of you fine Option traders watching the money pour in to YHOO, HPQ, MSFT, TIF, TXN, (KKD is starting to do exactly what it did last time it flunked it's earning, from $19 to $26 based on their growth story in Latin America). KKD might go back up...

I don't know, the news off Digi and other suppliers pushed her from $520 to $558 this past week. Is Apple still expensive, the weekly options made some people millionaires this week. Who is behind this massive squeeze or is this a change in the view of Apple's long-term viability without Steve...

We need to drive out commission costs as low as possible without hurting our execution price. Nobody needs to be paying over $.75 per contract, I think it's outrageous to pay that price and a ticket-charge of $5.00. I am shopping to reduce my commission structor because it really matters to...

My brother was a true compulsive gambler without a plan, it took him one month to lose all the money he got from some lawsuit ($250,000 in one month using the Martingale system). He loved playing Black Jack using this system, he would argue with my mother that "I don't need money to make the...

BRY, what is your Option Commission? Using a low-cost Brokerage and taking a ultra-fast platform with your percentage of capital using is reasonable, I can live with keeping that level. Facebook's downward bias after these Weekly Calls expire look interesting. The Facebook Put...

Ash, how can this be a sign of a Market Top if so much cash is on the sidelines sitting and waiting? CNBC and Fox-Financial have done their studies saying the little guy has not enjoyed the great rally from 2010 to 2013 bumping up their account values. It's said Jack Kennedy is suppose to have...

Wow, you got a really good collection of books and resources, are you going to set up a section on data-feed and Brokerages you've used in the past? Good job on your page, very interesting Mr. Chan.

Which website do you use for real-time news and hot story stocks? Are there Brokers who provide access to all the stories you need with Briefing.com and "The Fly on the Wall" as part of your subscription package? Who else is out there besides "Briefing.com, TheFly and The...

How can we get the best commission with stock and option trading? I would like to trade Forex and Futures with a new account, I never traded Forex and have no ideas how to trade it. That's why I am looking for the cheapest Broker for all these products. Forex, are you paying for the...

Dr. B, I do recall people in 1996-early 2000(before the meltdown in April 2000) who quit their jobs and made a couple stock buys, did not watch the Nasdaq or NYSE data. I heard something that made me freak, two of the church-ladies said "Trading is so easy, all you need to do is up a Market...

I have a very high ratio, I heard you can trade above 10x margin with these new Prop Firms. Will they give me a low commission rate of .002 plus full ECN rebates without their cut? I see firms paying back ARCA liquid rates of .0019 when ARCA actually pay's .0023 and EDGX pays $.0027, will a...

Ctheo, murray and Handle, I think this is why you are still in the game. You crushed out that part of the brain that desires some big capital losses. Great posts guys, I appreciate you helping me figure out what William was thinking. He never did any research and used my Esignal Stock Scanner...

I agree with the rest of you, not a good idea to reveal who we are. This is why I don't think it's a good idea for the Traders to reveal who they are. I went through a hell of phone call and emails with the most sob stories of people demanding I owe it to the human race to help them make up...

I keep making a error, apples price was $535, why I can't get this straight is beyond me. Please think about this, those Options are making the Market Making firms tons of money. You know how Funds can "pinn the stock to the Strike", it happen's all the time. Apple was my last weekly call, I...

It's a bitter sweet pill trading weekly options, I think they are really dangerous and the glitter of making a incredible intra-day trade is going to lure traders like a bug to a bug-zapper. I feel like people are going to trade what they will trade, I lost a chunk trading RIMM $23 and $24...

Cornix, I watched a "House Hunters" episode of some Trader who was looking for a massive house in Columbia, his price range was $750,000 USD looking for a new place to kick back, he has no plans of staying in Columbia for years, he said his next stop might be New Zealand or Japan, with his Forex...

Xandman, I will gladly share the biotech picks and get your ideas on how they are behaving from another set of eyes. I have a friend who worked for Crutt-Rotterdam as a biotech analyst and moved to Santa Barbara, California joining up with Argus Investment and finally moved to work with a Hedge...

I got $2.15 on my wife's IRA and the ARIA Calls I kept in my account are $3.00x3.30 at one point today. I listened to your advice and my wife said she will make you all some Aprium or Pluot Jam since you helped me get her position out first. With Option Expresses 'walking" program, is...
