    IB TWS question

    Does anyone know how to change the amount in the drop down price menu for options, equities etc. When I try to change a price in the drop down menu (for example to buy or sell an option) it moves in --0.08-- increments; this is not suitable. I cannot find a way to change said amount in...

    should have posted this early... at 92 was a strong buy for today's move. long Nov ITM calls; short Oct otm calls; likely sees 98-99. Thereafter - any idea or comments if it reaches back to 140 by year end? never traded this one; but I added it this week.

    Tomorrows Stock Picks (Shorts)

    you must not be every time you buy or sell you could and likely will be "wrong". It coulc go down further or up higher. Unless you are "psychic", and can buy at the absolute perfect price and sell at absolute perfect price - you will never be 100% certain. So go with probabilities

    Tomorrows Stock Picks (Shorts)

    10-04-11 10:34 PM I am adding more SINA and/or Nov calls. Will likely hit at least 77 this week imho. Any higher is questionable. All indicators point to higher ST prices. Only caveat is the news about alleged Chinese company accounting and alleged greater China government regulation of...

    went long SPY

    I wasn't even in the market or trading back in 2008-2009!! I have not looked at the market or a chart since 2006, until June of this year. Honestly.

    went long SPY

    You have brains right? And, I assume you can read?? . So... let's wait until THANKSGIVING before you start saying anything. ONE day does not necessarily create a reversal; and today in my view was not a KEY reversal,... so I would not be surprised to see lower prices. However, what I said...

    Told you years ago that all Chinese stocks were frauds

    the guy is obviously suffering from a mental problem. I didn't realize that until someone PMd me and told me about it. Feel sorry for him; he's angry and rude and narcissistic - what a pity. I thought ET weeded out guys like him in the past 3-4 years since I was last here.

    World Coming To An End- how to play it?

    I am not sure what you mean... but how do you say that "and now you are bearish? I just put new money into more aggressive funds as of close today looking for higher prices in Q4 (see post above)

    Are US mutual fund managers idiots?

    It is amazing to me how some of these clowns got to be fund managers. I just don't get it. Was it nepotism, damn luck ???? Pretty much they could throw darts at a dart board in any bull market and do as well or better. Some are total morons, but some were educated at good schools.

    went long SPY

    I don't see that as a bad idea; scale in and no doubt you will be UP significantly by Thanksgiving. NO WAY this vola keeps escalating without a large counter-trend reversal and/or rally occurring soon. Q4 is "typically" a good time from the long side. Plus its the 3rd year of a...

    Account Destruction.

    To quote Wall Street and the Gordon Gekko character: A FOOL and his money are lucky enough to get together in the first place." (to paraphrase) Next time don't mistake LUCK for SKILL. Skill would be (have been) that you learned how to take a loss on short side and/or convert spreads...
