    what's your Jack Hershey trading system win/loss ratio ?

    That is BS. All it takes paltalk room or skype to just call trades as the trader clicks the button. There is a hoard of people here, who would annotate and log every call. That being said, no one is obviously is required to do any of this. Myself, and I am sure many, would be very curious...

    what's your Jack Hershey trading system win/loss ratio ?

    I used to think that volume is extremely important. It still might be, if one uses fixed time fractals, but on variable fractals such as tick or range or volume in itself, it is a lot less useful. I have seen too many break out moves on very thin volume, and nothing happening when volume...

    what's your Jack Hershey trading system win/loss ratio ?

    I also have not seen any devotee posting the trades live. However, some parts of what was taught can be utilized with any system. Concept of ACV and DOM walls is very powerful for short term intraday trading.

    1/4% Tax on all stock trades pushed in NY Times today

    The sad irony is that should there be a transaction tax, it the the main street that will bare most if not all of its costs. But it is very hard to explain to people who are not involved in the markets. Plus, big players will get some kind of exemption any way.

    S&P is a bunch of irresponsible f**ks

    They had no problems slapping AAA on garbage MBS securities while pocketing millions in fees. However even tough their calculations does not seem to be exact, they had no problem downgrading US rating.

    When to buy VIX calls?

    What about using VIX calls to hedge naked puts on s&P500 index against black swan event. Unexpected event is what most often destroys naked puts accounts, but combined with VIX calls (insurance) might present a great opportunity. What do you guys think?

    Intellectual property is dying. Free movies and TV shows.

    That is why the best way, so far, to make people pay is some kind monthly subscription that could be tiered, that will give unlimited access to all content. This way the hassle of looking elsewhere is not worth the effort.

    Naked puts on emini s@p

    Kinda new to options. I had a discussions with a manager for a smalll fund about selling naked puts vs bull put spread. The puts are sold at least 100 points off strike, and the spread is bought another 60-80 points lower. My point is that the spread is an insurance for black swan/fat tail...

    Not necessarily, as long it is said somewhere in small print that all results are hypothetical, no legal issue. Franz did not have any after he was exposed, and if I remember correctly he just moved on and set up new website to continue "coaching".
