    Family has negative perception about trading

    Wifey just thinks daytrading is not a respectable way to make a living. It's nothing more than being a compulsive gambler going in and out of a casino daily. The thing is I'm getting trade confirms and statements in the mail everyday. When she picks up the mail with a whole pile of obvious...

    Family has negative perception about trading

    What should you do when your family keeps telling you to quit trading and stop pissing your life away like that? They think all traders are the stereotypical daytrading losers who have nothing better to do than to sit in front of their PCs all day scalping pennies. I can't trade like that when...

    Juicing expiration day premium with short straddle?

    But you don't know where the pinned strike is at the open. The stock traded all over the place in the morning. It could be 380 or 390. The goal is to minimize this risk by not establishing the position until the afternoon and when the pinned strike becomes apparent.

    Juicing expiration day premium with short straddle?

    Does anyone here like to do short straddle on expiration day to try to capture the remaining premium decay by the close? You should get a pretty decent idea where the pin action is around noon on expiration Fri. I shorted 5 GOOG July 390 Call and 5 July 390 Put for 3.9 around 1pm and covered...

    CNBC prime time is a joke?

    When are they going to yank that Donny Deutsch show? Who watches him anyway? CNBC prime time may have a chance if they do Cramer re-run every hour.
