    Online Trading Academy

    she should of "beware"d taking the first 5-7 day class. It is an entire waste of time. Their reputation is manure among serious traders. Again, a simple review of ET and the web will basically unveil they are nothing more than a $6,000 price tag for $30 worth of books about TA + Trading for...

    Online Trading Academy

    How can you possibly be attending OTA if you read what people said here about them? Try doing a little internet research on them (ignore the 5 star reviews they post all over the internet about themselves). You will soon realize that they are incapable of teaching people how to make money...

    Is there a way to set a stop loss when writing naked options

    these are not necessarily related. You want less volatility, then you reduce your position size. There is really no inherent longterm advantage in options writing. And when you write a longer term option, you lose even the advantage of time decay.

    Recent Graduate....want to work as a trader

    yes. number of posts has been proven to correlate with success. Therefore all one has to do, is to post perhaps only once a day and make money. Seriously, you need a logic class. Perhaps you would care to refute my post, rather than to demonstrate mental simplicity.

    Broker wanting photocopy of credit card

    yes. It is legitimate in any country. Credit card numbers have been stolen and sold to a very high degree. Even the post office has been requesting to see my credit card after scanning in for a purchase. Think of it this way. If someone opened an account in your name or emptied your...

    10 things I wish I'd never believed

    yes, you have whined about college on ET many times. We get it. You are incapable of getting a degree, so you confuse getting your useless Game Design certificate with being superior.

    If you are a woman and you join US Army, you'll probably get raped

    Funny thing, if that was your daughter, niece or sister and they were in the Army, you would probably be supportive. So based on your opinion, I wouldn't trust you either.

    Recent Graduate....want to work as a trader

    well, at financial institutions, traders are being replaced with algorithmic trading. And they can put in constant 12 hour days. And a lot of traders were canned after the financial collapse. At home, 99% of traders probably lose some to a lot of their money, including a few thousand hours...

    Looking for an internship

    not sure, but I would start by googling "internships" and searching promising links... Also check out craigslist around the major finance centers (chi, nyc, etc.), job boards, etc.

    It's all Greek to me

    Would be cheaper for the EU to kick Greece out than to bail them out.

    Is there a way to set a stop loss when writing naked options

    the farther out you go, the less that time decay will help you. Regarding time decay, option buyers want farther out. Option writers want closer to expiration. Time decay is more rapid as you get closer to expiration.

    sorry, but Rask went on ignore a long time ago. And anyone having usability experience would say he is an idiot. major website/GUI controls are not supposed to require searching for. On ET, they appear in one place on one screen, a different place and color on another, and not on others...
