    Aren't we always paying the spread?

    I understand that, but is that what usually happens. Or is what most often happens is that we end up paying the spread when the price declines so that out bid has become the ask at a lower price.

    SBUX bottom fishing

    If you play 32 for a long and it breaks, you stop out. Jeez. (There's an "if it does/doesn't" to every trade.)

    RINO, warmonger McCain and his "thumbs down". The likely illegal manipulation of the Minnesota electorate to get Al Franken elected to become the crucial 60th vote to pass Obamacare. One person = 330 Million Americans, SCREWED!! Then, and now! If you don't understand that we're living in a...

    The Bern Ultimatimum: 2020

    The Bern Ultimatimum: 2020

    Most of Bernie's constituents are the "I pay little or no taxes, but I want LOTS of stuff for free" crowd. What you seem to want is Socialism/Communism... if so, you're not an "American" but rather an American enemy on American soil.

    The Mystery of Why Japanese People Are Having So Few Babies

    So... Western countries flood their countries with low IQ, disease-ridden, murderers, rapists, savages, and criminals... rather than reduce social payments?

    Invention of beer and the wheel lead to the formation of America's political parties

    The two most important events in all of history were the invention of beer and the invention of the wheel. Beer required grain and that was the beginning of agriculture. Neither the glass bottle nor aluminum can were invented yet, so while our early humans were sitting around waiting for them...

    Who are the hedgers who buy stock index futures contracts?

    Both. Anyone with a position to protect can play the opposite side with a futures contract for a hedge.. Players long/short hedge SP futures the same as buying/shorting SPY.
