    Dude buys 150k Jan TWTR calls

    I don't know what the deal was this morning, I made a quick trade on TWTR calls and when I went to sell the ask was showing 10 cents over my order several times without me getting filled.

    The CME is registering for their upcoming trading competition currently. I just signed up a small group to compete for the first time this year at my school. OP, check out the link below and get a small team together to sign up. The CME provides the real time data and you trade through CQG...

    What is your take on Daniel Kahneman's theory? Happiness is not more than 60-75k/year

    Do you not have fun with your 3 year old at least? My son just turned 2 and we have a blast. Sure there are plenty of moments where I want to pull my hair out when he is cranky, but overall he and I play non stop when I am home and have a great time. Granted I don't get to see him half of the...

    College student who wants to trade professionally

    Thinking of trading while in college... sign up for the CME trading challenge. It is on their site. I am getting a group together at my school. I figure at the least it will give me a couple months of good data and an expensive platform (CQG Integrated Client) to try out for free. The...

    Does Muddy Waters take positions before its calls ?

    I stand corrected, I was confusing the two.

    Does Muddy Waters take positions before its calls ?

    A couple years ago when I first started following the markets they put out a bad report on HRBN. It tanked and went down to about $6. I bought it around $10 the next day or two then it shot back up to around $18-20 in a matter of days. The CEO wanted to buyout the company I believe and muddy...

    CL Redux

    How is that no credibility? He is posting when he enters and exits the trades. Clearly you can see when he makes a profit or loss and he makes quite a few good calls.

    Bloomberg Terminal

    So I just discovered that my school had a Bloomberg terminal on campus and nobody uses it. So I just reserved an hour to mess around on it before class. Any input on some neat things to look at? I am completely new to using the terminal so I'm just navigating around looking at stuff pertaining...

    Dell PowerEdge 2900

    Yea I think that sounds like a good plan. I was looking into the bitcoin thing today and saw some dedicated machines for it that weren't too pricey and I thought it seemed like a good idea. Then I read a little more on mining them and saw that the "difficulty" is increasing by like 100%/month so...

    Dell PowerEdge 2900

    Do you think it would be fast enough to mine bitcoins or something like that or would the power bill exceed the profit?

    Dell PowerEdge 2900

    That answers the question on value. I didn't think it would be worth much with better options available for next to nothing. I really don't know what I would use it for. It just seemed like a good idea when my work said they had a PC and a server if anyone wanted it, I of course said SURE...

    Dell PowerEdge 2900

    I have no clue really. I was debating on selling it or holding on to it until I find a use for it. My work doesn't need it anymore, we just switched to a new data center setup and don't have a use for this one anymore. My boss said I could have it if I took the hard drives out or if IT can...

    Dell PowerEdge 2900

    It is a tower and looks identical to the one in that link. I will try to find out the amount of RAM and processor model. Since the hard drives are removed I can't just check under the "system" info in windows.

    Dell PowerEdge 2900

    So I have an older Dell PowerEdge 2900 and wasn't sure if it was worth much of anything. Anybody know anything about it? The hard drives have been removed due to sensitive information. It has the Xeon processor in it but I really don't know the details on it. I guess I probably need more info to...

    Who is Afraid of Heights ?

    I don't mind heights except in a few situations. We have a couple hundred foot waterfall here and when you are at the top on the way down there are some rocks right off the trail sticking out you can step out on and one wrong step and you plunge down all 200ft or whatever it is. I am the same as...

    Trespassers not leaving when asked, what can I do?

    I talked to a city officer in the gym tonight about the situation and he cracked up when I said it was the judges wife. He said they are crazy animal rights activists so confronting him about his wife probably wouldn't do any good. He said just call the station and ask to speak with a supervisor...

    Trespassers not leaving when asked, what can I do?

    My wife and I bought this as our first house for a good deal and did a ton of remodeling work to it ourselves. We still have quite a few finishing touches to do like trim work and a little more painting, but geez I am about ready to finish this thing up and sell the place. We have quite a few...

    Trespassers not leaving when asked, what can I do?

    I tried being polite with them yesterday and attempted to explain the situation but they refused to let us answer all their questions. Both of them were going back and forth grilling us and wouldn't allow us to respond. If they come back and knock on the door vs just walking to our backyard I...
