In my experience, chart patterns for short term trading are not at all useful. Chart patterns in general are a result of the human need to create visual order out of chaos, and to provide some sense of meaning and stability where there isn't any. For short term trading, what I call "Price...

A trader - as opposed to an investor - would seldom hold the call until expiration. The trader (me) would consider the call to be simply a derivative of the underlying stock. If the underlying rises to my target price, I would look to take a profit in the option, which I can do at any time...

http://www.cboe.com/strategies/default.aspx (See Beginners Strategies) Buying a call is the most basic long-strategy. Study time decay, and keep in mind that even a 10% move over 30 days may not bring you a profit.

Your index puts would help with a (small) degree of market risk, but not the specific risk of the company. So I don't get the point. That's expensive insurance that doesn't cover your biggest risk. While the market does have some impact on the movement of just about any stock, it pales in...

I have no sources of information that are not currently public. I am only speculating as an interested political voyeur. But consider his reported losses in 1995. And I recall from loosely following his career since the '70s, that he took huge personal hits earlier. And what would later...

LOL. You're expecting Trump to stick to the issues. Okay, here is the sum total of everything he has to say on those issues. Immigration: Build a wall! I'll make it huge! Terrorism: Build a wall. I'll make it huge! Economy: Build a wall. I'll make it huge! Obamacare: Toss it! Then...

Good. And please learn to twerk while you are at it. Twerking and Uziing are the thing to do here.

Welcome to my ignore list. You'll be spending the rest of your online life with such racist luminaries as Himmler and Hitler. On your way, while you're working on your plans to sterilize the black community, you might want to take a moment to thank your creator that you weren't born into...

Kardasian is spelled with a "K", not a "C". It's about time you Brits start showing some respect for our culture.

You, nor anyone else including his closest advisers, have any idea whatsoever how he would react to a confrontation. And you are underestimating the amount of damage that can be caused by an irrational person in control of our armed forces. The constitution has not provided for anyone to say...

A nice find. Now if only it was registered in every state, it would probably be a big winner.

Going forward, I suggest that you refrain from smoking a joint before posting.

Jem, I was willing to give him a chance to get his act together, hoping that he'd display some maturity and move away from his playground-bully crap. But he is just more of the same. Take him away from a teleprompter, and he reverts to his true self. I don't have so much concern about him in...

I think Clinton did a brilliant job by ignoring Trump's very frequent interruptions. No doubt her handlers put her through a lot of practice on this. I was curious myself how she'd handle it. Would she put him in his place and tell him to stop cutting her off? Or would she let him go with...

I intended for the VOTE to be on the debate performance. The DISCUSSION can cover anything. Thanks for participating.

People Trump's age (and I can say this, being close myself), do not change their nature, and their way of interfacing with others. What we have all seen of him in this debate, and especially in the primary debates, is WHO HE IS, and it is what he will be in the White House, and traveling the...

Reagan had been tested and tempered during his terms as Governor of California. Unfortunately, Trump has had no such experience, no such testing. He has never been in a position of service to anyone. Domestically, he can be limited by the other branches of government and by our constitution...

Who do you feel was more effective at furthering their cause in the first Presidential debate on Monday night? Please note that the question is NOT, "who do you like," or "who will you vote for." The question concerns specifically the performance in the first debate.

How about starting with a profitable strategy? Your own posts are filled with doubts. Why would anyone else invest with you?

Restricting trade has NEVER, EVER been of benefit to any country. And sorry to tell you, but your former job paying $12.50 an hour putting together cheap widgets for WalMart ain't coming back to the U.S., no matter who is in the White House.
