    Massive traffic--- what is going on?

    I did not install it on this site that is being pounded. I think google analytics needs 24 hours. This site is an ignored site. I do not want to work on it to later see traffic go to little. I will give it sometime to see if this is sustained. If any of you want traffic for trading...

    Massive traffic--- what is going on?

    No, I do not need that. I have traffic. I have even a list, and I do not send them emails. If you want to make money from my list, you can advertise to them.

    Massive traffic--- what is going on?

    Summer + past traffic makes makes it strange. I hope it is not a robot playing games. For those who own sites: what is your experience about web traffic, and also how do you get traffic?

    Massive traffic--- what is going on?

    I am trying to figure it out, but I have not yet. It is massive traffic. If I can have 10 sites like this one and it works like this every day, it prints money. I checked adsense, it made 30 dollars. I think it is going to die down. This is strange, but they are pounding it. Close to 8K page...

    SPX Credit Spread Trader

    The seller of a bear call spread is sure to get either lower volty or the direction right, because when market goes up volty goes down, and vice versa. It is the reason why bear call spread are "easier" than bull put spreads in general. In commodities, I would expect the reverse to be true...

    SPX Credit Spread Trader

    Dullness is the friend of the premium seller, because the premium seller sells the fluctuations. He likes to sell the sizzle, and keep the steak.

    Falconview: 1. In above the Gross credit may have an addition zero, unless you sold 10 contracts? It should be $830 if one contract. Maybe you are used to count thousands/millions, and you do not recall very well how to count hundreds. :-) 2. Margin: Add to the premium this: 510*0.15*100=...

    Most Tolerant Towards Opposing Views On Religion?

    I think it is the TRUE theists that are (or should be) the most tolerant. My conception of theisms is a one God. I would agree that the conception of God may not be unique across human minds, even in a given one written religion, but theism to me should lead to one God, and the acceptance of...

    Falcon: I am in a hurry and busy with other things now, so will post later. Two points though: 1. Leverage is with respect to price of underlying (OEX, etc). 2. My models tell me that for QQQQ (which is following NDX) that today's upmove is about to end. QQQQ is at 47.18 now. Models...

    Fastest Growing Religions

    Is there a scientific study that supports that conclusion (the guy in the vid seems to be mainly a propagandist, and therefore not to be trusted)? Is not Christianity the dominant religion in the world with Islam second? What is the second fastest growing religion if Islam is the first?

    Falcon View: I came across some of your posts, and I now realize you are a serious person. Let me give some comments: 1. In some of your posts I got the impression that you may be thinking that the greeks may help in forecasting. They do not. Consider a short call for instance . What...
