I wonder if the OP took that 15 lot short? Looks like the market handed out a royal flush after all but unfortunately, had the position been put on Monday morning it would have blown up. Hopefully he did it Tuesday morning :)

I'm not so sure this article is that dumb. How can the US economy keep going at the rate it's going when the entire system depends on debt? Hell, even social security was raided and replaced with debt, in many forms. Social Security, Medicare, the Money Supply -- all Ponzi types, that will...

LOL

It's not a rumor, it's true. He has been under investigation by the CFTC for quite some time. He was probably forced to shut down pending the outcome or his attorney advised him to do so. LOL. Here he is. Guess what! Trading options has never been easier. Woohoo. Where's my credit...

No, it was actually started by Clinton along with Sandy Weill and his henchmen.

No way man! If I gave up after knocking my head up against the wall time after time I never would have made it. The OP's story is basically like mine. I kept trying the same thing expecting different results -- you know, the basic definition of insanity. It wasn't until I tried something...

If you are disciplined in your life you will be disciplined in your trading. I've yet to see a person with a cluttered, unorganized desk trade successfully. The win rate at starting a successful restaurant are about the same as trading successfully. Some are naturally inclined; others have to...

He wants to know <b>why</b> he keeps losing. You ain't helping him out. He has to learn how to program himself to be a winner and how to stop subconsciously sabotaging his success. Judging from the initial post, I'd say the OP is a failure in many aspects of his life, not just trading.

Lemme see...you're trying to call the top of a market that does nothing but go up with 15 lots full margin and you're wondering if that's a good idea? Dude, you are programmed to lose. Do a little research on how the conscious mind programs the subconscious mind. And to those who want to...

Well, after 52 pages of content this may get lost but trading can be as easy as this. There are two types of markets. Volatile and non-volatile and the volatility or lack of volatility is concentrated within a certain time period, which you have to assess. Let's go back to 2007 and 2008. On...

The only way this is going to pass and actually come to fruition is if we have peacful demonstrations of the likes of what is happening in Wisconsin. Congress can't ignore the collective might of the entire population of the country. Ron Paul needs much more than a number of co-sponsors. If...

Even today I can still hear Marv Albert saying, "A spectacular move" to the shot at 1:49.

Couldn't agree more. Add courses in Stats, Finance, Accounting, Vector Calculus, Stochastic Calculus, Biology, Law, Medicine, whatever...with a Philosophy Course in Critical Thinking and I'll show you a very successful person. It don't hurt to do some heavy thinking listening to a killer voice...

I had to write loads of term papers -- on a friggin TYPE WRITER and I actually had to get off my ass and get into the library and do real research and read books LOL. One of my college buddies told me to take Music Appreciation as a Fine Arts Elective. I laughed at him. I'm not laughing now...

I used to think that way but being a lot older and much wiser I now look back at classes like Humanities, Philosophy, and Religion as some of the most important classes I've ever taken. Wanna know why? Because they have a tendency to make you think. Nowadays I go out of my way to try and...

The inner city of Chicago is beginning to compete with Detroit, resembling a third world country. Downtown in the loop is still good but once you get outside the loop you want to continue going until you hit the perimeter. Drove through El Paso a few years back on my way back up to ABQ...

If he is indeed a buddhist, he will most certainly return. At the risk of sending this thread to the Religion file a quick study on Hinduism -- the oldest recorded religion in the world -- is in order for anyone who walks this earth. Read 2:22...

This would hardly be a 7 day war and the US would most certainly get involved.

As someone noted earlier this piece is probably heavily biased. What type of students were interviewed? Where they majoring in Biology or Pre-med, or Philosophy? In that case they would have little knowledge of economics and probably don't know the price of 1oz of silver. Had the interviewer...
