    Is everyone in a fullblown panic because of coronavirus?

    Chinese placed 10 huge incinerators in Wuhan, China a couple of weeks ago. Why? I would think there are more casualties then, they are letting on. They are probably, burning the dead bodies to prevent the transmission of the virus. Maybe, Corona Virus victims in the US should all be cremated...

    Today's market opening prediction thread

    So much energies wasted trying to predict how the stockmarket will move? In all that time, you could have placed a good trade and start making monies. Instead, valuable time spent trolling the ET message boards?

    The losses just got bigger. Trend is down on TSLA. Why would you sell a put? Buying a put makes more sense.

    Is everyone in a fullblown panic because of coronavirus?

    Yesterday, I went for a quick trip to the bank to get cash and coins for the laundry machines in my apartment. Was fine, until about afternoon when I had some cough and headache. Took some Vitamin C, gargled with salt and hot water, boiled some sliced ginger, add stevia and drank it. I felt...

    How to get out of Tesla short put positon

    Those who bought the $490 put options will get to sell their TSLA stock for $490 although, TSLA is only worth $445 now. Option sellers will pay the $45 difference as they are required to buy TSLA as $490 from the options buyer per their options contract. Of course, you get to keep the premium...

    How to get out of Tesla short put positon

    If you have a small account, selling for option premium is dumb. Risking thousands to make a few hundred dollars? Sure the win rate is high but, it takes only one losing trade to lose a lot of monies. As an options buyer, my risk is limited to the cost of the premium. Call options return is...

    How to get out of Tesla short put positon

    Either way, you will take a very large loss unless, TSLA goes up. If you do not have cash, you will get a margin call because you have a liability to sell TSLA at $490 and that will be exercised. There are 4 trading days left. I do not know if your broker will wait that long. If TSLA continues...

    Time for bottom-feeding yet?

    You have to study the stockcharts. Each stock is different but, there are clues. A stock is falling then, stock stops falling. Who is keeping the stock from dropping after all, it is in a downtrend? If a stock does not have enough buyers, wouldn't the stock keep falling? So, who is buying it and...

    Time for bottom-feeding yet?

    Just follow the sharks (hedge funds, brokers, banks), when they are buying, I am buying. When the sharks are selling, I am selling as well. When ET trolls are telling you anything, block every one of them. They have no clue and can only harm themselves. Let them.

    You Volatility Lovers...

    Love it, love it, love it. You trade what the stockmarket gives you. Realize you are but, a sardine (retail trader) swimming among sharks (hedge funds, brokers, banks). Be dumb and become chum for the sharks or be smart and feed with the sharks. Your choice.

    My account wiped out. Any recourse?

    When you are trading the stockmarket without any risk management accounting for the worst case scenario, you are asking for that worst case scenario. It only takes one to blow up your account or if not, you would sustain huge losses to keep you out of the stockmarket for good. Yet, too many...

    Bernie 2020

    Do not think the Globalist Wing is going to cut comrade Bernie Sanders some slack knowing they got him on the ropes and about ready to cut it. Bernie Sanders supporters do not take losing lightly. They will stir trouble and agitate because that is what radicals do. Quid Pro Quo Joe Biden got the...

    Short selling ban coming?

    Why would it be illegal? If you are buying a stock, isn't it in your interest to offer lower prices? Nobody is being forced to sell at that price. Anyone can sell at the price if they want to sell their stock. If not, then, don't.

    Start hoarding

    Trump Deranged Syndrome extreme liberal foreign troll, here is an idea. Put your finger up your ass after you do no. 2 then, put that finger on your mouth. Maybe, that would jar the remaining brain cells on your head for once. If it fails, the border is wide open to your homeland. If you are...

    Can IB just increase my Liquid ETFs to 100 margin/no margin?

    Don't know the rules of IB as they are not my broker. That said, brokers will protect their financial interest at all times. Margin is a loan. So, you are borrowing the broker's monies to trade? Also, why would you sell puts on OIH and HMMJ which are both trending down? Doing so, only increase...

    Short selling ban coming?

    Nothing more than irrational reaction by retail traders. Do you really think it is going to save your ass if the hedge funds, banks and brokers (sharks) want to tank the market? All they need to do is drive the bid price so low, you will be crying uncle. How are you going to get out of your...

    Is everyone in a fullblown panic because of coronavirus?

    Wine was plentiful. The only item most shoppers would have been able to buy. Did not bother looking for the potato chips and beef jerky. Do not know if they have it.

    Is everyone in a fullblown panic because of coronavirus?

    Was at Target today like 7:50am before the open at 8:00am. Line was long and when they allowed everyone in, most of the shelves was empty. I ended up buying brisket, pulled pork, small packet of shredded cheddar, 2 small bottle of mayonnaise and it cost me over $27 LOL. No pasta, lots of wine...

    Corona death rate in US worse than Iran's

    Communist China with 2 billion people who hid the number of actual fatalities. How much do they claim died? They claim over 3,000? The figure could be closer to 10,000 or more considering the communists love to hide negative news. Also, they put huge incinerators in Wuhan, China, all 10 of them...

    Andrew Gillum found inebriated in Florida hotel with meth

    Yet, Andrew Gillum never got arrested, not even a warning or ticket. Incredible how the Democrats all get a pass even when caught with their pants down. Felicity Huffman got a joke of sentence of 14 days for a crime with a 20 year maximum. Her plea bargain should not allow her to get a mere 14...
