Rascals?

That's true. But I didn't know it until I opened the option account. Years ago it Was possible. But since I had not really paid attention since I came off the floor, I didn't realize it. I stopped trading options in 1989. So I mistakenly thought I could still do what was possible then. I was...

GaTrader, You make some valid points. Let me clarify a couple of things though which are of course only from my perspective so far. First as for decimalization and multi exchange listings...yes, they do make the pricing fairer for off the floor customers. But my "problem" is that it seems...

Hey Publias... I am glad you have reconsidered your "retirement". Or at least it appears that way to me. Welcome back!!!! :)RS7 (the guy with the cool signature, compliments of a great guy and a valued friend)

A man who knows of what he speaks!!! The kinds of spreads that are typically done off the floor are in reality no more than synthetic long or short positions. For them to work, the market has to go your way. Might as well just trade the stocks (or ETFs). But on the floor, with the rules as...

What are you....a VULTURE? Get to your room you miserable buzzard!! And have a great weekend! :)RS7 (don't covet my colors dude)

Well I just got off the phone with that POS Bud Selig, and so far no go. Where the hell is Judge Landis when you need him? So I will make him call me back. I will wait him out. Spoke with George (Steinbrenner), and he says he has also tried to reason with the guy. Nelson and Fred are into...

Publias, Get your ass back here!!!!! I miss you already. Hey, with Darkhorse back, I know you can't resist anyway. I mean what could be more fun? It doesn't get any better than this. Just imagine having Daniel_m, MrSub (with or without his mom), Darkhorse, Stu, Fasterwhatevercat, Jem...

No you underestimate your effect. You DELIGHT and AMUSE me. You are a good soul and a truly worthy dude. Don't let the critics bother you. It is all what is technically called (from a medical perspective), "high cock". In laymans terms, don't sweat the small stuff. It's all fun and there...

Stu, Here's the deal. My wife is away for a WEEK! So either I find myself some real fun this weekend, or I will be totally bored and get myself into a state of delirium. If that is the case, perhaps I will come up with something to amuse you and the rest. I will be a little busy trying to...

No question that the Dow stocks are the biggies. But my problem with it as an index is that, like you said, a "problem with a few of them" can scew the index big time. So if as you say, a rising tide, etc.... well, if the "smokestack" or bank stocks are up, and the techs are down (for...

Everyone knows something. The correct spelling is Hofmann. And of course my good friend Augustus Owsley Stanley III did much to accelerate the important work of Dr. Hofmann. (Yeah, Tim Leary too). But Owsley also financially supported and shined the lights for the Grateful Dead. There were...

Stu, your wish is my command! I appreciate the humor in Mr. Publia's struggles with his own thoughts. I guess I think it is funny because it has been a while since I was 22. You should let up on him. He has a good heart and means well. And what works for him.....whatever. There is no right...

born2trade; MrSubliminal is a very resourceful guy. He will find a use for what I have had delivered to him. What I did not tell his mother is that the lubrication is really the transdermal delivery system Macroflux® (from Alza corporation, now a part of Johnson and Johnson, one of my...

Very good advice. She looks more than tough enough still in the photo I saw. I am not sure of the date it was taken, but you could be right about the time frame. MrSubliminal is kinda ageless looking...one of those rare people where you can only estimate his age as somewhere between early 20's...

I have not even heard that term in probably 10 years. Does it still exist? I am not certain it would since the Euro came into existence. But I am not sure. But even if the instruments are still there, with interest rates so low, I don't know if this is a viable trade. I mean how much...

excellent plan....really!!! Good Luck...and it will take less luck for sure when you adhere to the PLAN!! :)RS

Dear Mrs Subliminal, In defense of the Elite Traders everywhere, let me inform you that no one here has subjected your son to even a small fraction of the humiliation and ridicule he deserves. Now I consider your son a friend. I think he is bright and very funny. And I understand it must...

More simple stuff. With some special added features to fulfill the requests of MarcD. Some rules to live by for successful trading: I find it amazing that so many traders do not have both an earnings calendar and a calendar of economic events at their fingertips. For day traders that go...

Hey, I was just teasing....I know you are well read! The X-Games...where is that? I ever tell you I skied in hot-dog contests? Of course it wasn't anything as radical as todays freestyle...this was in the ancient days of the sport. But it was a rush!!!!!! RS
