    Is it just me or is everyone you know that goes to las vegas bad?

    I am thinking the same thing. You see a lot of gorgeous women hanging on with sad, sap losers and fighting each other over those losers. Maybe, guys should just have multiple girlfriends and let them sort it out between themselves! Guys would be happier!

    Actually, thinking of shorting WB now. Looks like it is ready to go down big.

    My trades

    Got out of my WB calls. Too bad it went back down. I ended up okay though. Still got a 29% profit on my 3 contracts for just 3 days.

    Do you guys rely on the business channels such as CNBC and others for trade ideas ?

    It would probably, apply to futures as well as commodities have charts too don't they? I do not trade futures because the leverage is very large and trading futures is very risky for retail traders. Not sure if they have options on futures. If that is the case, it may be better to trade the...

    Do you guys rely on the business channels such as CNBC and others for trade ideas ?

    All stocks go thru Phases. Phase 1 (Accumulation), Phase 2 (Mark Up), Phase 3 (Distribution) then, Phase 4 (Mark Down) then, Phase 1 starts over. Now as to your question where do the big investors, hedge funds, big traders buying? Common sense will tell you it is in Phase 1 (Accumulation) when...

    Do you guys rely on the business channels such as CNBC and others for trade ideas ?

    There is the so called dark pools that do not appear during the day and added later on. Not sure how that works to be honest. I would hazard a guess that those trades would be added to the volume transacted for that day. Look at the volume spikes when a stock breaks out of a trading range and...

    Do you guys rely on the business channels such as CNBC and others for trade ideas ?

    Practically, all information is already reflected in the stockcharts. When insiders sell or buy their companies shares, it takes 3 days before it gets reported to the SEC. Chasing after it is old news! When they release news to the retail investors and traders, the big money investors and hedge...

    YouTube bans Alex Jones

    Most Republicans in office are RINO liberals so, they have the same views as using censorship to silence the opposition. They are cut from the same cloth so, not much better than the liberal Democrats! That is why they continue to oppose most of President Trump's MAGA agenda including, building...

    YouTube bans Alex Jones

    Liberals have always been the biggest hypocrites! Do as I say, not as I do! They have freedoms for all things liberal and censorship for conservative views! What conservatives should do is put up their own social media platforms out there to compete against the likes of Facebook, Twitter, etc...

    FB and SQ looking strong today. My WB went up good too. Have a small profit on my calls. Chinese companies might be affected by current disputes on tariffs. Several Chinese companies reporting sales dropping 50% or more from US customers. Do not know how it will affect BA, BIDU and BABA but, BA...

    Former Madoff customers argue it wasn't a Ponzi

    Those who were given profits by Madoff earlier got the most monies! There were no actual trading records! Those trading records were bogus and Bernie Madoff did not even trade those monies as he claimed! Instead, his company was manufacturing trading records and statements out of thin air!

    Is it possible to make 5% a month in stocks and ETFs ?

    That is 60% per year. A lot of hedge funds do not even make 60% a year. If you are a retail investor, probably, way too ambitious a goal to reach. Try 15%-20% a year. A competent stock trader probably, can earn 60% on his monies or maybe, even higher!

    Why Traders Lose

    You cannot account for each and every variable. I carefully, select each and every trade I place yet, a lot of times, trades just do not work out even if the setups look good and you are buying at high probability areas. Despite, all that, you can still lose on that trade. So, what do you do...

    Why Traders Lose

    Maybe, it is just me. I started off investing in the stockmarket and buying and holding CSCO and kept holding. I lost quite a bit during that time. CSCO at the time was around $100.00 at the top and now, 18 years later is $43.25. Long taken my losses because I could not take more losses at the...

    Why Traders Lose

    Never understood the logic of waiting all that time, sitting on huge gains and letting most of it be eaten back by the stockmarket because there is no exit strategy! More like, buy and hope you have monies left at the end!

    My trades

    Got out of RUN today. Expected it to go down a substantial amount but, with time decay and 11 days left on the option, I decided to bailout at a teeny, tiny loss. Keeping my WB calls which is doing better!
