    Fidelity holding my ask option again...

    I do both...When I am online I will drop till I fill, or I will drop till I am the only one sitting there at my price, waiting for a fill, even if it's for days or weeks at that price. Many times I will come back 1 minute, 20 minutes, an hour, or a day later and submit another price. I don't...

    Fidelity holding my ask option again...

    Yeah, you're right...day-orders. I know I'm not marketable...Hence keeping the ticket in for a few days/weeks. Fidelity will allow orders up to 60 days...As long as you use THEIR routing!! Many times to buy a stock, I will put in my price (good till cancelled 60 days). My price is...

    Fidelity holding my ask option again...

    Yeah, I get it...Fill or kill. But I don't trade like that. I'm the kind of person who is willing to put in my order...Not look at it for days (weeks) and come back to see if I get a fill. I know that is mind blowing to you, but it works for me (a few weekday trips to the coast, visiting...

    Fidelity holding my ask option again...

    It would not appear on any market!! Just at Fidelity. I finally had to cancel my order, go with CBOE...Which is for day trading only. Here are the lists that Fidelity gave me to choose for markets. Do you know if any will trade beyond 1 day out, for orders. AMEX 0.95 x131. 5 1.15 x51 NOM...

    TSLA 2022

    I'm going to step back and wait till below $200...Then option the $200. Was thinking about my posts a couple of years ago about Tesla's and their cost/time to repair. It is a REAL issue. It can not be glossed over. Here is a thread from Tesla owners. Their repairs are so costly and time...

    TSLA 2022

    OK people...Talk me out of this Tesla trade. I have watched the stock for years. I have never bought it...I have been waiting for it to either implode or gain/keep market share, while it develops a service center network. I just think many Tesla owners are throwing up their hands when it come...

    What I did this week CD and US Treasuries...

    I had a CD mature on Saturday (during a 3 day weekend..Not good). Years ago, I would make sure CDs always matured on a business day!! The bank would use the float otherwise. The CD was for $250,000.+ interest. Was not getting much for my CDs...Was tried of going from one bank to another...

    TSLA 2022

    Sorry I haven't followed Tesla closely for about a year...Just a bit from the sidelines. But I do have some questions some of you may be able to answer. Have they increased the number of service centers (outside contractors) over the year in the US?? Have they figured out their recycling...

    LEAPS option - Is this a good use?

    HOW COME YOU GET A PASS ON THIS, WITH EVERYONE HOLDING HANDS, SINGING KUMBAYA?? I share the same concepts and get ripped to shreds on these forums? Yes, I think it's a great strategy...I have used it for 20 years (among other strategies). You have though out the pros and cons on this. If you...

    Company reduces dividend, gets over sold...

    Hence the leap, to defray the cost of the stock. You earn money from the option and the float money (compounding) from the option money. You still will be getting the reduced dividend. Also, if you have chosen wisely, you own a quality stock...

    Company reduces dividend, gets over sold...

    Just looking at T...I own some of it. I also own some T-Mobile. T-Mobile has doubled over the years. It has taken market share from T and VZ. People are dropping their landlines in droves. T has 172,000 full time employees...Most are unionized. I used to work (subcontractor) for Worldcom at...

    Company reduces dividend, gets over sold...

    When you hit a recession, many of these companies will reduce their dividend. You just need to pick and choose the ones you want to research. Find one or two (three or four) you want, that are priced right...Then make your move. Got the below off the net... Nearly 75% of the stocks in the...

    Company reduces dividend, gets over sold...

    I agree somewhat. I am willing to invest for the long term with a quality stock...Hence the leap. If it was a dividend elimination (not reduction), it would send out major warning signs like you have mentioned.

    Company reduces dividend, gets over sold...

    Thank you!! So maybe I'm not nuts...Or, we are two nuts on the same path. PS That was dividend reduction...Not stock reduction.
