Hey, you can read the whole book there???!! Cool. I'm going to have to try that out on a few more... :cool: EDIT: just noticed some pages were kept out of the preview. Still, a nice service if you are thinking about getting a book.

Yep, Eisman was smart and had pretty good timing. But as others have noted, he also was levered up betting against the whole mess. If they had mananged to keep all the plates spinning in the air for a year or two longer, Eisman might have blown out too. Great article. And anybody that...

Isn't that the guy who is a cunning linguist?

he's only coming for Surf Fest...

It can't go faster than the wind, if its travel direction is exactly down wind (parallel to the wind velocity vector). If it is allowed to travel at a down wind angle, then yes. The wind will travel around the curvature of the sail at a faster rate (Bernoulli's) and essentially "pull" the...

You might try Ctl>Alt>Up Arrow, or Right Arrow. Might work if your video driver supports this feature.

There is a rumor going around (that I just started) that Rennick is really Barack Obama! Cummon BO, uh I mean Renny, the election's over! :p

I was with Schwab for years. Great customer service. Also, very expensive to trade there. At least as compared to IB. IB has a simple to use (you have to use your security token tho) ACH broker-bank deposit/withdrawl feature. It is free for a couple transfers a month. Otherwise I think...

OFFICIAL MEMO Date: 11/10/08 From: THE MARKET To: retire45 Sir, my job is to befuddle most of the people, most of the time. It is the very nature of markets that only a few can win. And that, unfortunately, is not you. Regards, THE MARKET j/k good trading to all! :)

One thing he has that is hard to dispute... Is a hot daughter!!! <img src="http://www.wallpapergate.com/data/media/140/Michelle_Williams_004.jpg"/>

According to Gallacher: LW Financial Strategy Fund lost more 50% and was closed in less than a year (1989). World Cup Championship Fund also lost more than 50% of original equity and was closed in 1990. Are these just flukes, or is LW just a gambler who has winning and losing streaks and...

You are correct. My appologies to LW. I went back and reread Gallacher (been about 10 years). Still, there are some facts about LW that won't go away. He has had serious and criminal tax problems. Why can't he just pay his taxes? Doesn't he make lots of money? Also he has had...

Once again, this argument is like "Cramer and Kiyosaki sell worthless advice to the clueless and do/have done shady things to make millions, etc, etc..." Is this really to be admired??? Not in my book. No, I don't have millions. So what?

What server? US, HK? What securities? Emini Globex? Stocks? I'm on the US server and rarely have problems that are not my ISP. Give us some specifics and we'll see if others are having similar issues. Shouldn't be too hard to find out what is going on. Good trading.

I think it can be summed up like this: Winning trades ---> Contest Account. Losing trades -----> Advisor Account. See this book for an examination - http://www.amazon.com/Winner-Take-All-William-Gallacher/dp/0786311916

Barack better get a little MMA training!

East bound and down, loaded up and truckin', we're gonna do what they say can't be done. We've got a long way to go and a short time to get there. I'm east bound, just watch ol' "Anek" run. Keep your foot hard on the pedal. Son, never mind them brakes. Let it all hang out 'cause we got a...

Used it for years. Very few problems. Good customer service too. Daily market commentary from Don and, sometimes user tips, can be interesting.

You could also "ladder" some strikes down. Like 5%, 10%, 20% (if there are strikes that low). That way you are bound to hit some and they will help pay for the others. Just make sure to put in the sell orders (and stop loss orders might be a good idea too). Don't get (too) greedy!
