I have never traded GOOG even though I was tempted to do so. I will never do. But I know this as a fact and I can actually see this news although it has not happend. I can see 3 to 9 months from now, after their announcement, you will see this title in Marketwatch headline: Google...

when you look at the rates, also watch out hidden rates!!. Those rates might kill you. IB has no hidden rates. I am extremely impressed by my option fills. I assume their customers will increase by 20% just because of this rate decrease.

to Mahras2: It is hard for me to believe that you are 17. Not that a 17 year old can not be profitable in the market. Even your way of writing says that you should be older. I don't say that you lie. I am just saying that I don't believe that you are 17 and that will not change anything. Keep...

You have to be careful but it seems that this strategy works many times. This is for a day that the company announces its earnings AH or BH and it is supposed to go either up up or down downand swing like 10% or more. Reading the report is time consuming and by the time that you read it, the...

Is this a strategy or a money management rules? To me, this strategy will never work considering you'll be stopped out many many times before you see one profitable trade. actually I don't see any clear stop lost rules? Thanks for the feedback. I think it is both. Remember you will buy...

remember the old wall street saying: Sell Rosh Hashana and buy on Yom Kippur." I don't know if it works or not, but Rosh Hashana started on Monday and Yom Kippur is Oct. 13. They also say buy tech stocks the first Monday after thanksgiving and sell after January (don't remember the exact sell...

then its obvious you are a girly girl. LOL! WHAT A WUSS! I laugh at your FAILED faded call. As far as I am concerned, you are down 5.5%. Everyone on EliteTrader now knows it. With due respect your type of response reminds of Yahoo message boards posting or you get so excited in your...

I try not to make predictions, but I've been playing the short side since Monday before the $NDX 1618 high (btw: funny, it was the fib phi-1.618 ) and the last 2 days were just "too good". For me it was always a sign of "the trend is about to reverse"...or we are about to crash? I would...

I'm finally doing good, you gotta love the short side... however today was the peak, usually it means that I have to start looking for some long setups. I guess sooner or later the market will bounce back on short covering... I saw the same thing today. It does not mean that I predict...

Losing money - no losing trades in a long time. I was in the same boat till Monday and till I did that one bad trade.

I am not losing money. and I am LONG, LOL! You should be very proud of yourself. Down by 2% is not losing money. I mean over 5%. Were you making money when everyone was also making money? I suspect that you are not diversified and you are investing on something that is not down but will...

Now any company that reports extremely good results tumbles. I have seen periods that companies announce that " we are proud to a announce that we are bankrupt"!! and their share surge!!. Investors don't look at the result, they just do what they are biased to do or planned to do until it gets...

I see many people are quiet here and there are no "LOL" or "Free money" postings anymore. Am I right? I did not believe that we are in the bull market but I feel that things are overdone now. Personally I got out of my shorts fast and lost good amount of money on bad option bets. I see investors...

Because you will trade stocks with high volume, low volatility, less or no margin. You also know what you are going to do from the time that you put your order. You will cut your loss at 5%.

I have put together a trading strategy for stocks and I would like to get feedback from you guys and let me know what you think or try to modify it. It is not a secret so everyone can use it and I believe it will reduce your loss. Here is the theory: Account requirements: 1- Use a low...

Congratulations for your picks. My hat off to you. Today was a bad day for me.

Look at my previous posting a few days ago when XLnx was at 28. I called it short. Of course I also called WIND buy that has not worked well so far. I still believe WIND as a good buy. I also believe XLNX is a strong buy now for patient investors as it is one of the rare companies with zero...

Your posting might not encourage people to respond because it is so basic and it also depends what you want to do and where you think those stocks are going. Do you want to invest or gamble? Anyway I suggest to buy 22.5 for aa and 80 for dna. If you are so sure that they will gap up, you can...

I did not talk about the health of the market. I think investors think of tomorrow as a strong day so they will jump in at the closing to buy in deep? I don't say we are in deep but who cares about my belief . I am saying what might happen.

I trade options. I trade WIND, INTC, ADI. But I was talking generally.
