    The S&P is looking very toppy

    What has been the history of Fed activity during the presidential election years? Say for the last 10. I would think the Fed would try to stay out of it much like refs try to stay out of the last 2-3 minutes of a game. No one wants the outcome to be influenced by anything except the players...

    VXGN On Monday

    I had written calls against VXGN and they were assigned Friday. Good for me, and good for the call buyer.

    For a long time it was Olivia Hussey. But after Scarface, Michelle has been my one and only.

    Short gamma trade in EBAY

    Dang man... I know somebody's gotta do it, but it doesn't get much more depressing than Surg/Onc. On the other side, it can have some fantastic high points. Not enough to offset the downers though. That's an interesting route you took riskarb, similar to mine in a way. I went from the pit to...

    Short gamma trade in EBAY

    I checked out that straddle when it was posted... just for academic knowledge b/c I am trying to get a feel for this. The volatility at the time I looked was 37.8% on a bid of 6.40. That was per optionsxpress. I hope you make a ton of money on the thing, however, as an academic assigment it...

    Ameritrade - Pulling my hair out

    This month Ameritrade is moving all Datek accts over to Ameritrade. The order entry capabilities as well as the things like acct balances will change with that too, all for the better I am told. And for cryin' out loud, emailing customer service? Get on the phone pronto and get it taken care...

    The S&P looks very toppy

    Naaah, I actually know better, but I was hoping with a title like this one that picking up the discussion anywhere would pretty much bring me up to date on the curent thinking. There are some good minds here participating. You, James, riskarb, Hello_Dollars, Pabst, Wags, specul8tor... just to...

    The S&P looks very toppy

    I tuned in here expecting to see a conversation on the S&P looking toppy. You know... kind of a market direction discussion with various members contributing their astute commentary on support and resistance. Maybe like the presence of the 200 week sma that has acted as resistance for this...

    jesus is god......lmao

    I know you're kidding.... Anyway, I don't think Benny claims to be the Son of God. I really don't know much about him. But if he starts claiming that he is God, or the Son of God, I'll take a closer look. From what I have read on other sites about him though, he hasn't done this. But I do...

    Canslim

    I am compelled to second the words of Grob on this matter regarding CANSLIM. And I would encourage you to read the thread: http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=23543&highlight=hershey+trading+method. I called it the Jack Hershey Stock Trading Method, but in my mind, it...

    Interesting stock picking approach

    When you say analysts, I am presuming you mean fundamental analysts. And the sell recommendation portfolio, did it provide a 78% return on the short side, or the long side? And be careful... :).... using the term "trade" around here on anything longer than a 3-5 day swing trade is...

    jesus is god......lmao

    You added a qualifier that was not there when Jesus was alive. He had special abilities. Of course, you have to believe the Biblical account of Jesus' life. If you don't, then no amount of written or spoken material will convince you otherwise. Unless His Spirit has touched your heart, you will...

    jesus is god......lmao

    I was hoping to hear that about steroids. And the rest that I quoted above I had hoped was the truth versus the hypothesis I posted previously. It is much more in line with the nature you presented to me in our PM's. Certainly our spiritual beliefs differ, but knowing that you are just...
