am i the only one here currently reading his book? short seller's like Einhorn may be the most ethical of all investors if he gets shareholders out of these dog's before it is too late. imagine if you had your life savings in a company that einhorn found out to be a fraud and his (or any...

no offense...but, to me you sound like a guy who is reacting emotionaly to friday's action. the way i see the macro are that things are never as good as they seem and never as bad. just calm down. i will give you some mention to #4 for the erie similarity to how wwI started.

that quote must be from a trader. most of these guys who make these post are peon's. even though no one can really prove it; why not say what trade you are putting on based on your bias? i went long on es on friday @ 1360 with 1370 in mind. anyone else? also, the way some here spell tells me...

whoa.... fm757....blackjack was most likely not flaming you. he was simply speaking the odds. you even got a compliment on the wire outs. my own 2 cents ..i trade very similar to you, wire funds out for a living; but i diverge from you as my options trading has evolved over the years to...

the strength of er2 is truly amazing. no question i would be estatic if you were right.

ok iv...i am coming your way ever so slightly.

even worse ...july's expire in june! so at least you are correct as far as how different cl options can be. you guys are funny.

all this has been discussed Ad nauseam ; achieving those returns are unsustainable. when you learn that ; i hope you don't say, "it can work next time by doing this". the real way you can stay alive and make a living doing this will be building positions like fly's, ratio's; taking small...

first of all; if you are netting that percentage monthly, you will blow through a spread soon enough. either your account will get blown out, or it will take months to get back and if you are aggressive again, it will happen all over again. when i do "condors"; i sell only when i have...

.70 and done. no other fee's whatsoever for equity options. if you want future options, commissions vary, but are priced very low. really no competition considering all points.

i wonder what has cut off the supply of s & p put options? anyone have an idea? i am very concerned and look forward to when the supply will return.:confused:

funny.... i (and many others) eagerly await those also... ib guys do you hear?

it is rare to have a poster have pm in with both companies; so good analysis. i am pm with ib only and have been with them since before et was such a big deal. to me i like ib for many reasons; such as clean professional approach, good margin, breadth of products, price, technology, etc. also...

i am not arguing with you. my point is directed at the readers who understand that grammar mistakes speak volumes about the person writing the post. although it did not need to be pointed out to most; i somehow felt the need to nonetheless.

correct. although in the last 15 years we have altered our target to the very high end. credit plays a large role even if it is only in the high end consumer perceptions. what i sell does not have to be bought. it can always wait. good thing i trade too.

your version that has been repeated countless times: "donot" ; i believe should be typed as " do not". if i am missing something; i apologise. in any case; that is the least of your problems. holygrail, i hear your point regarding how your business is reacting. i have a slightly different...

so true, i had as an early teen a dirt bike and thought i was "rich". now, everyone has a piece of the action(borrowed). maybe a little reversion will be good.

i could not agree more with you...my two cents: as a competitive powerlifter from the late 80's ; i recently gave it another go (kudos to atticus for some training) and was shocked to see what today is considered normal lifting. triple ply shirts and the such turned me off real bad. i ended up...

the only reason i trade from the office is because i have other business interests; although trading is a very large part. if i was an independent trader ; it would be from a home office for sure (although the chances of my wife falling out of a window would be increased..purely a joke of course).

fairfield, ct here. trade mostly index options in my own office...but more importantly; i have a beautiful separate office that is looking for someone to rent in one of my buildings. you would have your choice of severval floorplans. then it would be in my best interest to help you succeed...
