Not scarier than being long on any other day IMO

Feeling lonely? :)

That's absolutely "normal" for most traders. It's called a draw down. The only way to handle this is stay cool, keep emotions out of trading and keep doing what you have been doing during the 5 week run and remember the lesson the market taught you in those 2 days. There is no magic to avoid or...

I think it's the other way round, at least over a complete market cycle. In a run away bull market Covered-Call-Writing will of course always under perform! Both Covered-Call-Writing the SP500 and Naked-Put-Writing historically showed favorable risk adjusted returns over plain buying and...

I don't see why there would more uncertainty about the markets this weekend than any of the recent previous weekends. The difference is in hindsight, we can always look at charts and see how it turned out. Now we're at the very right hand side of the SP500 chart and like always when T=0 there is...

It's in the article, sad but true: "Mark D. Lay acknowledged little experience with hedge funds." lol

Don't dispair, here's a free motivational video, no need to dish out $50 an hour, just watch this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TROhlThs9qY

Weren't you the guy that also advised to short AAPL, GOOG, RIMM and MA... momentum stocks in a bull market? No risk getting burned there!

Nice article: Ogawa has dip buying all figured out, when will the "elite traders" on ET finally learn??????? :D

I love free money $$$

Thanks for the warm welcome, still here :)

Not sure how many, but it somehow feels like a self fulfilling prophecy by now... until it doesn't! :D

You're missing nothing IMO, it's just buying and selling with a little more vigor that we have seen in the last couple weeks. Volatility is still sedated and very very low by historical standards.

What's not to like in a bloodbath :)

Bud: How much is enough? Gekko: It's not a question of enough, pal. It's a zero sum game, somebody wins, somebody loses. Money itself isn't lost or made, it's simply transferred from one perception to another.

Futures are back showing a slight chance of a cut by years end. Right now hikes are priced in with odds of 0%.

That sounds like a recipe for disaster. Ever tried shorting weak stocks instead to put risk/reward in your favor?

Just a joke between Eqt and me. No need to feel aggravated.

lmao!!! Cheers bro :)

lol that's nuts. Kinda reminds me of those Japanese guys outbidding each other in the 80s for Rembrandts and other art.
