    California Mortgage Foreclosure Chart. Eye Opening.

    Say that to Lehman, WAMU, Wachovia, IndyMac Bank, and a boatload of banks/countries/people that lost a lot of money.

    stocks forecasting a DEEP RECESSION

    Stocks can't forecast anything, the market is incredibly stupid. Just as the subprime mortgage was starting to make news, dow jones and sp were making all time highs (2007), clearly the market did not care about subprime then. If markets were wise, they would never crash since they could...

    Futures Traders...

    The current SEC fee on stock and options orders is laughable if they make it something like that for future it is a non issue. And if futures come under control of the SEC I would not care either.

    House Democrats Contemplate Abolishing 401(k) Tax Breaks

    I guess abstract thinking is not your strong suit. There are many reasons that contributed to the robust growth of the US stock market during 20th century and those are the precise reasons why it is highly unlikely to repeat in the 21st century. I already outlined macroeconomic reasons...

    House Democrats Contemplate Abolishing 401(k) Tax Breaks

    No, that would be an oversimplification. Even in the 20th century (which can be safely named the American century) there were extended periods of time when dow did NOTHING(1964 to 198 something). If you take into account that 20th century was also a period of considerable, unprecedented (and...

    House Democrats Contemplate Abolishing 401(k) Tax Breaks

    401(K) are the biggest scam ever perpetrated. "In the long run stock markets are always up" is my favorite phrase. If someone is supposed to retire NOW their stocks did not do much for a few years. Apparently average people(joe the plumbers) don't know how the Nikkei STILL has not achieved the...

    S&P 500 vs Equity Put/Call Ratio 20-Day Moving Average

    we gonna bounce but what is important where do we stop first. I thought that the "market" (I am referring to dow here) was going to 8000 and maybe slightly below (like 7800-7900) but it seems "stubborn". RUT had no problem behaving "properly" But I am going to be watching the way dow opens on...

    time frame for day trading?

    For those rare occasions where I stick around and watch price action 5 minute chart is by far the best. For the life of me I can't understand why anyone would use 1 minute chart since it is filled with insane volatility.

    Question about futures.

    One more thing for mr rros: http://www.investopedia.com/articles/optioninvestor/05/020205.asp It says long puts at market tops are "CHEAP". I only buy puts and fade the market so implied volatility is a non-issue for me altogether.

    Question about futures.

    Any self-respecting broker provides "the greeks". Not buying overpriced options is assumed. And no my strategy is not an accident waiting to happen.

    Is anyone here subscribed to Dan Zanger's site?

    There is a golden rule concerning "edge in making money" instructional materials If you can make a lot of money doing something and sharing it with other people can threaten your cash flow you will NEVER sell that info. People who make a lot of money keep their mouths shut and say/write only...

    Black boxes destroying market for everyone

    Well you need to learn to read then. I never said I can do 100% a day I dont measure performance in single days. I said I can do 200%-300% in a few days (and not one year). I am attaching a screenshot. A position of 4 november BRS 25.0 puts which I announced some time ago went from 2.00 a put...

    Black boxes destroying market for everyone

    All the black boxes in the world won't help you. The problem for hedge funds is that they really "got into" groove during Bull market of 2003-2007 and bull markets are the worst time to learn to trade because you get all kinds of bad habits(assuming you play almost exclusively on the upside...
