    Yes there are a lot of them, but most of them most likely do not work. As I wrote above, I make 600 dollars per 160K visitors. Those sites say some ridiculous things, or I am stupid for making only $600 out of each 160K visitors. I believe I am right, because I get the visitors, so I must...

    put/call selling seem to make sense so far as of now.

    If I am not mistaken in your handle, I read that you used to sell premium on index/futures/etc using candors/straddles etc. You seem to have changed business. What happened?

    SPX Credit Spread Trader

    Falconview: 1. "Bit confusing there, don't understand it. Does expiring worthless mean you get to keep your credit received? If the OEX is between the two strikes at expiration. Saving commissions thusly?" If price finishes between strikes, the straddle is worthless, and there is nothing...

    Something to add: I have a site about trading that is well regarded by google. It is ads based. I do not post regularly. When I post, they send me around 500 visitors. If you have article about trading (original articles/videos), I can post them on my site. If any of you is interested, let...

    Tango, I own some sites. This month is the best month so far. Currently around $600. One of the misconception is that you would have a lot of traffic or that a given amount of traffic leads to higher amount of money. To give you an idea, to get the $600, the sites needed 170K visitors. I was...

    In God We Trust

    That statement is made under assumption that God exists. If he does not exist, it does not hurt. A right religion should increase/promote your ability to think logically and critically. Thinking is particular to human. So if God exists, it is the one faculty that he would rely on to...

    Who are the idiots buying bonds for 1% interest?

    I like to give credit when credit is due. I would like to give credit to BIG D. I think he was good in staying the course, and clearly explaining the why of his trades. I personally based my decision on timing models, and not on fundamentals/etc. Martinghoul and him had some good exchange...

    Who are the idiots buying bonds for 1% interest?

    Did you notice that today the market went right to 126'08, and sold off. 126'08 is what my models predicted four days ago as per my previous posts on this thread (check history). Remember that I noted that a top typically takes time, and that the return is low for top pickers. It touched the...
