since i'm into solutions not problems, switch to ib or tos (now tda) and be done w/ it. problem solved.

if you're buying otm, make sure you buy yourself enough time. at a minimum go out at least 2 months ideally 3.

when i read the comment "i guess you'd have a lot of oj to drink" oj almost came out of my nose. obviously this applies to any commodity you're trading (e.g. "i guess we can make a lot of bread w/ the 50k bushels of wheat i now own"). re ideas for trading OJ, looking at the chart which is all...

as dr. evil would say, + 1 million to everything swan has been saying - for the love of God, this is your money you're talking about - why would you trust it to a nutjob who invested in a racetrack? there are so many things we can't control in trading but a few we can such as position size...

i assume you're talking re a 5-10% return for the option not the UL? if so, just remember when you're aiming for relatively small returns like this (i know, 10% in a short time isn't a small return but it is for options when you're loss could be just as big) that a small move in the other...

+1. don't even get me started on ung...anyone that says "i held ung for a year and lost 75% when spot only lost 25% - what happened?" should not be allowed to vote.

step 1: go long huge overnight expecting to profit next morning step 2: wake up next morning to find ES locked limit down b/c of black swan step 3: goog suicide hotline

look into doulinks dual wan router - great reviews on amzn, a lot cheaper and just as reliable. i don't work for them, i don't get paid if you click on the link, etc. just trying to help another et'er save money and get the same functionality for a cheaper price...

+1 to everything except the last sentence b/c of that director buying the racetrack nonsense but very good points. my 0.02 USD is that someone buys them for next to nothing to acquire their relationships and has to do a capital infusion to put them on solid ground. now b/c i said that they'll...

continuation of ch. 3 for what not to say in prison after being busted bud fox style for insider trading... "hey bro i've got a million shares of xom in the hole - can you fill me? "do you think i should leg in?" "wow - you're favorite stock is bjs too?" "i'm really long right now"...

download revo uninstaller portable http://www.revouninstaller.com/revo_uninstaller_free_download.html go to bottom of page to find link to portable version. when it shows you a list of all programs, uninstall anything you absolutely don't need. if you have a question re a program either...

dump the entire port into TOS or IB or any option analyzer, find the port beta, buy the required number of weekly spy puts, boom done. not the best solution b/c the beta number could fluctuate but close enough for an early sunday morning.

re decades long good perf, yes it has good perf over long periods of time but it can severely underperform during short periods like last year. they call it a track record for a reason... re if bonds crash, TRXT aka BOND will get killed just like any bond fund unless he somehow completely...

excellent point. pretty sure you need an IB account to trade them b/c you're trading a KRW based product. you can use another broker but i frankly trust ib more than anyone else.

+1 to MSE (msft sec essentials). run cc cleaner at least once a week. download the portable version of revo uninstaller which imho is the best free uninstaller b/c it gets everything a program installs which the windows uninstaller won't. scroll to bottom of page for portable version...

his fund is just USGOV and MTG secs - if you don't have access to futures just buy TLT and NLY and be done w/ it

couple points...first, avoid PNSN like the plague. just b/c the accounts would be transferred doesn't mean there won't be a problem. you don't want to go through the process of having your positions frozen while they're transferred to another firm - esp options positions. what happens if you're...

+1. for most of us who only turn our computer off when we are restarting it to apply an update, a faster start up time is of little to no value. besides, if you're smart you disable automatic update installation and just have the updates automatically dl'ed but you install when you want - before...
