    Risk Free Trading is back, NO STOPS

    I'm not sure, I think he just likes to get a rise out of people. I don't begrudge relief to anyone for making mistakes, financial or otherwise. We all make mistakes. I just feel this sends a bad message to the, shall we say... irresponsible. I also know life can turn on a dime and we are...

    Risk Free Trading is back, NO STOPS

    I agree, it's almost sickening. Why plan, and save or be frugal when a free pass is given out. What sort of message does this send to my children when they see this unfolding. "Dad was wrong, we don't need to save, work hard, study and be honest."

    Why Diversify Your Portfolio?

    Do you have a specific question? All but the last appeared to be rhetorical. It seems you have already formulated your opinion and wish for confirmation. This also may be the wrong forum for discussion. This is the trading forum. Again, what's your question?

    Large Mystery Bearish Trader out there?

    Yeah. Basket programs, buying blocks for protection. Always good to have a spy screen to refer to every 15 minutes or so while trading. It's a good way to determine the days trend. Trade in the direction of the premium expansion of the SPY. Down days see calls down and puts up across the...

    How do you value invest in a stock and buy it ?

    Positive Carry Yacht - Up For Sale

    That's a good question; my answer would be (B). If it were me, having to endure one of these two choices, I would go with (A). Swift, catastrophic loses are crushing to the spirit and soul. Often times without remedy.
