Are you profitable?

It all depends on location and the type of deals. 1) With the current historical rate(4.5% 30 yr fixed), get as much as the bank allows you. Standard 20% down gives you 4x leverage, name another investment that will let retail do 4x leverage AND NO margin calls if shit hit the fan. In...

It's people like you that's the reason. What gives a shit about how many buildings are taller or with/without antennas. This is a symbol of american strength not just two buildings, every year it's not rebuilt it's an insult to the whole country.

It is a fucking disgrace, everyday i walk by the site I feel angry and embarrassed. This attack is the greatest tragedy/insult to recent US history since pearl harbor, but instead of say fuck you to the terrorists and rebuild the towers to show american resolve. TEN years later we are just...

per the link, article was published on 2/2/09, in the next 30 days sp500 dropped 150 pts, well below their target, making this an excellent call by gs.

give it a rest, china doesnt give a shit about some south american country like brazil. It's just a blip on their radar. They threw some money at it to make everyone happy and keep some shit there as it's close to the usa. That's about it

wow atticus i didnt know you do this stuff as well. Curious, what do you do if the underlying went itm? Do you just take assignment then sell otm covered calls 1 strike out against it or take the loss and close before expiration. thanks

thanks this looks pretty nice, will check it out in detail tomorrow see if it works http://www.interactivebrokers.com/en/p.php?f=orderTypes#category ------------- nah i dont mean odd combos, just standard flies, iron condor etc.. i think all IB does with a combo order is just add up the...

This is probably a long shot, but maybe it's buried in one of the IB menus someone know. Is there a way to do an option combo order using a dynamic limit price that's somewhere between bid/ask Getting into say an iron condo is no problem, i just fill each leg individually, but since i work...

This will never happen until we have true AI software that can self correct, hardware has nothing to do with it. And current AI technology we have is not even remotely close, it's mostly just static scripting and a bunch neural network designs that hasn't made much progress in the last two...

very interesting, 2 days in a row this stock tried to breakout but gets pulled back into the 145 level. will be closing my weekly 140/145/150 flies tomorrow and look for reentry on the short side next week.

next friday. you are in hope and pray mode. 310 is $2.5 and 320 $5 still, if the stock stays around atm/otm, the premium will begin to crash next week as it closes to expiration. What % of your total account is in those puts? If you cant afford to lose the whole thing, bite the bullet...

That's alright, i was just wondering what people are trying to get out of you by asking all those silly questions. I dont think this board needs more hope though, we have tons of those here, more like a hard dose of reality.

i sell cash covered naked puts/covered calls on <$15 stocks i want to own. recently getting back into the options game with a small account doing flies + iron condor, it's just too addicting even though i dont have the time.

atticus already stated vol66 does short gamma/iv. Are you guys trying to figure out how he picks his entry/underlying?

stop hit at 146. -$4000. Yep this is me, trying to catch a top and getting owned. Still have my eye on nflx waiting for the momentum to fade, 145 was a key level, will see what happens in the next few weeks.

EDIT: nm just came back as soon as i posted...wtf. mod pls delete this post

SUV are safer than cars in a crash, it's basic physics. The link you have is about rollovers only which was a problem on the older suvs and Jeeps(deathtrap). Nowdays all luxury suv and most standard suv have rollover protection, this is a non-issue. During a crash: 1) Taller wheelbase...

1) for your wife not you, and because safety. 2) i never said mb is best in sedan class, reading comprehension please. I dont think we can communicate.
