    The Dividend Tax Bill Arrives

    Yep. The rich do more consumer spending than the poor. They have huge pools, huge mansions, and huge expenditures which all help grow the economy. The more rich, the more consumer spending, the more jobs. If everybody in USA was rich, we didn't need credit cards or loans to get consumer spending...

    An inconvenient Truth

    free market advocated are the same as democracy advocated. they don't truly understand the subject matter at hand. Democracy is freedom? Think again. Democracy in a prison, would that work? Ofcourse not. Another example, Kosovo. We all know the Serbians aggression and murder spree caused the...

    Covered Calls vs. Naked Puts

    I am new to options but an option strategy combined with stocks is best i think when writing options. for example if you want to own stocks, sell puts, it gives other people the right to sell at the strike to you. So if you want to buy a stock at a certain price (strike) naked put is great...

    Free money option strategy - seriously 100% risk free

    I just found a free money options strategy. 100% risk free, you won't believe your eyes. Lets say you have a stock trading at $20. Write a put against the stock, strike $45, and sell the option for $25. This way the option it right at the money. What do you guys think? A good strategy no? :D

    Turning 10k into 50k in one year possible? if s how would you do it?

    leverage and hope to get lucky then leverage the 5k you get to 50k, then to 100k. When you reach 500k, you can trade like a pro with controlled 20% a year with almost no chance of blowup

    '99ers' exhaust benefits, Thousands are banding together to ask for more extensions!

    The solution is simple. Halve minimum wage. In trickle down economics, this will essentially create not even double but TRIPLE the amount of jobs the USA has. Vote for trickle-down. Cut taxes on the rich by 50%. The rich should pay a flat tax aka $5000 flat tax a year, just like every other man...

    How much capital do you typically need as a trader to live on your own?

    Sure you can live frugal when you start full-time trading. But if you were really serious you would start being frugal when you still have a job. You would be frugal every year that you have had a job. You would be frugal as a way of live, to attain the dream of trading for living AKA becoming...

    IB option charts

    I don't mean stock charts, does IB have option charts? Also if I expect an out-of the money option to expire very close to the strike, do I need to manually close the position to limit risk, and how do I do that? Do I exercise or sell the option, but is there a third option of telling IB not...

    How much capital do you typically need as a trader to live on your own?

    Trading is not freedom. Money is freedom. With daytrading you are occupied 6 market hours and at least 2 analysis hours a working day. You are talking about something different than I am. I am saying that living frugal to add capital to trading is totally stupid idea. Most people who go into...
