Hey... Obama set out to destroy America. He did what he could. :(

They intend to win AT ALL COSTS! No atrocity is beyond them. Just like George Soros... just like radical muslims. They don't consider what's "right", or "fair", or even "civil".

"Option buyers lose money what, 70% of the time?"... That's the common wisdom. (Probably a lot to that. As previously stated I just completed a 100 option trade test with free recommendations from vendors who want me to pay them significant money for their option picks. Result... 62% losers.)...

Kinda thinking the same myself.

Yeah... so far, I'm thinking it's likely "not worth it". There is always risk with any approach to the markets, of course. But so far I'm thinking options are more hassle then they're worth. (Then again, perhaps I'm just too lazy.) Trading the ES seems on a par with risk-reward of options...

You don't need VESA to move the monitor around as needed. I don't mount mine.

Years ago some did charts "by hand". It was worth the hassle of doing so because they knew the value. Anyone who didn't do such charting was at a disadvantage. Today real-time charts are available to all. And they are just as valuable today as before we had computers. But because "everybody...

Yeah, I know that. Not the same thing. (At one point in my career I had custody of OPM... and I never stole or misappropriated even $.05 from any client. Madoff was a fraud and a crook.)

"...You've got a fix looking for something broken (or something to break)..." I have no idea what this means. My basic strategy is to find the ES trades where I am risking 4 points with the reasonable expectation of making 12 or more on a successful play. For options, I have to screen lots of...

The buys were both puts and calls. I didn't discriminate, just took what was recommended. (Part of my quest is to determine whether it could be worthwhile to rely upon someone else's analysis as to which play to make.) If I were big into "income", I understand writing OTM would be the...

When you show any interest at all in options, you get bombarded with solicitations. Some of which include free trade recommendations. I took 100 of those with the strategy: 1. Take profits when +100% gain 2. Stop when -50% loss 3. Close in early July, regardless (all plays were July...

When you can conclude, "you know what you're doing", go live trading only 1-lots. You'll learn some things trading with real money that trading sim doesn't reveal. IOW... it's easy to be non-disciplined and sloppy when "it's only paper trading". After you've had some success with real money...

Light in the room whether from bulbs, through windows, or even reflected within the room... along with monitor placement and your viewing angle will determine whether or not you can eliminate glare. If you can, great. If not then a matte finish might be your choice. (I use multi-monitor with...

The US may be "less civil" (I wish it were not so, and I hope it stops soon), but I don't think it's Trumps fault. Blame the Lefty's. They intend to win... even if they have to kill everyone who disagrees with them or stands in their way. :(

I'm a long time user of multi-monitor. Suggest you not be concerned with "size of frame". Even if your bezels are "fat", you'll soon not notice them at all... your attention directed to the charts themselves, ignoring the space between. As for "matte finish", only matters if you have "direct...

Doubt your computer is slow because it doesn't have enough horsepower... I'm running about the same as you and mine works like it should. Most likely you've got a software problem somewhere. Before you run out and buy a new computer, mount a different HDD/SSD and do a fresh install of Windows...

Only about 8% of the world is white, yet we've developed the most powerful economies and well-off populations the planet has ever seen. And... it wasn't given to us by non-whites. I think there is a lot of jealousy from the "other 92%". Greedy, power-hungry politicos make it a point to keep...

Jim Simons' Renaissance... front-running, HFT software. But you can't get access to it.

Was his plan from day 1. For anyone who bothered to pay attention, was obvious. Bastard!

Must have got that notion from the Chinese.
