Yes, he always has the best interests of his customers in mind. A perfect model of a Great American. If you don't believe me, just ask him yourself.

I agree completely. I get really pissed every time I hear the refrain frequently that ""we're all in this together and we all have to sacrifice." Bullshit. Those who created this crisis with their greed and laziness are now out sailing.

You sound as though you are a novice at trading in general. Just a friendly word of warning: Novice and Options when mixed together can be very lethal.

There is nothing that will predict your odds of losing or profiting on a trade after X previous trades. A win/loss rate is based on the universe of all trades, and has no predictive value of what will happen after X trades have been completed. It would be nice if it was that easy, or...

Best answer yet. If you are trading a highly liquid stock with a penny spread, and you want into the trade, use a market order. With a limit order, you may not get filled at all if price moves. One of the more frustrating things you can experience is sending in a limit order and...

Since when did the President of the U.S. start writing the tax code? I must have missed that change in the Constitution.

Not a direct answer to your question...but when the indices are 'dead and choppy' you aren't going to find nirvana trading stocks.

I have considered that, but I've stayed a step ahead of you and wear a tin foil hat. Thank you for responding, but it is a question that needs to be asked.

If that is indeed the case, then it would be a simple matter of them setting alerts when price movement and volume was such that a stop could easily be hit. I've had a number of instances when a stop was hit precisely, then witnessed an immediate rebound to previous levels. If there is...

It could be just me...but I've had a great number of instances the past few months when setting market stop limits on equities at IB, to have them quickly hit then bounce back. Both short and long trades. Recently, I've moved to setting stops via my software platform with auto-entry, and...

Okay. Then (1) Forget your fears, (2) Stick with your system, and (3) Put on nice music. Send me a check for 3K, and you just saved yourself a bundle.:)

Thanks for saying thanks. So seldom heard in these parts.

Based on my own experience onboard ship, that is untrue. Issues of ANY kind involving sex are distruptive to a workplace. This is especially true in a military unit where you can't simply walk away from someone who shows an interest in a sexual relationship, or ignore someone who wants to...

Hmmm. An interesting image. A fighting hole? You learn that in boot camp, or was that advanced stuff?

If a trader lacks experience to trust his instincts, your statement is true. But for an experienced trader, acting impulsively often results in the best trades. "When you see it, you'll know it." Of course the price for this capability is many thousands of hours of screen time, and...

LOL! So, one who believes in an old myth has more credibility that one who believes in a new myth, right? By that reasoning, let's just put a Hindu in the White House, and all will be well.
