Your arguments are not much better, flytiger. It has been years since you have said something is coming down the pipe and we'll all see how right you are, but it never happens.

You make way too much sense to be posting here.

Last time I checked (several years ago), I couldn't e-file precisely because I had too many trades. You figure that would be the perfect case for e-filing but nope. I don't know the restrictions on e-filing now though. Maybe I will try this year.

It is because no matter how hard the Fed tries, at some point the rates will start to reflect reality due to market forces, rather than the Fed's manipulation. At some point, the Fed will find that it has lost control of the situation.

A rule that should never have been implemented in the first place. Do you even trade? Do you not hedge from the short side? Do you not appreciate that you do not have to wait for an uptick to get short? There is a difference between now and then, and now it makes trading more convenient, nothing...

I had listened to it for the second time on your prompting and seriously, ever sentence that comes out of his mouth is false, total conjecture, and extremely irritating in the way he seems to "know it all." And yes, he does put blame on the repeal of the uptick rule for the raids on LEH and BSC...

This is the scary part. I find Cramer's conclusion that the change in the uptick rule has caused market volatility and the downswing to be baseless and irresponsible. However, he seemingly has been successful (or lucky) at changing public perception about topics he discusses on his show. I am...

Maybe it is because they are getting spanked silly currently and are crying for mommy. You don't hear complaints about shorts when they are losing, that's for sure.

How do you separate the increasingly bearish news that was coming out during this chart that they show in this article. There is no proof that the change in the uptick rule changed volatility. The simplest explanation is that market news created the volatility. If they really want to make a...

There is no proof to anything that you are trying to say. You mean to tell me that there would have been no volatility when BSC went under if the uptick rule was still in effect?

This is more of your BS. Do you even trade on the short side? I do, and I am an "individual investor." It is just a tool I use to hedge myself to prevent losses. Elimination of the uptick rule has eased the process of hedging for my portfolio. Instead of complaining about how the repeal of the...

I've already sent my letters off to the SEC and to my senators and representative, telling them the benefits that have occurred because of the repeal of the uptick rule. Please send yours before the Cramerites send theirs.

The more shorts there are, the more eventual buyers there will be in the market. Shorts always buffer the large moves.

On his show, he tells his viewers to write to their congressmen and tell them that the repeal of the uptick rule has damaged their stock holdings. He also claims that the repeal of the uptick rule has been a major component in the current market downturn, partially blaming it for taking the...

You told me to load up the boat when SPY was at $150! How can it get any clearer than that?

Which is scammier though, gold or the US dollar? What is not a scam?

Man, you make a lot of sense. I should pay you to get the privilege of reading your posts.

Man I loaded up on BIDU when SPY was at $150, just like you said. Why are you selling down here - is going to the moooooooooon!

I hate Cramer with a passion, but I can see the case that he was talking about account holders (and not the common stock) in that video. Also, I can see how the people in the graphics department were fooled into putting up the BSC chart even though Cramer might not have intended this...

Kind of like when SPY was at $150? Do you even have any powder left?
