I rent, and here in SoCal, the place where I live is still cheaper to rent then to own. I would like to buy a house but the prices here would make me"house poor" if I bought what I wanted and finding fixers are hard to come by lately. I like the financial aspect of owning a house, but the...

It's been 10 years for me since I signed up to ET an have noticed the same thing. The PNL thread used to have 20+ daily posters in it, now it has none. I feel allot of the conversations that used to happen here have now migrated to places like Twitter and Stocktwits. I'll tell you one thing...

100% dumb luck :-) "I'd rather be lucky than good." I wanted to get short since the overall market has been selling off the last couple of days. When we broke the low of 433, I got short. Only after did I realize earnings was after the bell. My reasoning was that I would either make or...

Do you have any software experience? You could look at working for companies that provide trading platforms or risk management software. Bloomberg, Open Link, Triple Point, etc.

Have they finalized the time it will start trading? I read "around 11:00" but nothing set for sure. When will Nasdaq announce the time FB starts trading?

I use my bike as a daily driver to. The best thing about riding in SoCal is being able to lane split. Never have to worry about traffic, it's great.

What did you use to ride?

When I signed up for ET, I was racing motocross on a CRF250, hence the CRF next to my name. Now I got a KX450 for the dirt and KTM Superduke for the street. <table style="width:auto;"><tr><td><a href="https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/viKIdZZ-mFdXGZ-d84LrTQ?feat=embedwebsite"><img...

Mav, I read in a post of yours on the ACD thread that you met Eric and went upstairs to MBF on a visit. How do/did you know him and Fisher? I wish Eric would write a book about his trading...I liked him better when he was just a trader then a news guy.

I've always been interested in Bolling and Fisher. It's hard to find info about how they traded besides an article or 2 online. Not sure if he got money from being a director at nymex but he should have made a nice payout when CME bought out nymex if he still had shares...

I've been going back and tweeking old trading setups I used to use and I came across an idea that sucked so bad, it was a perfect setup to take the opposite trade on. That got me thinking, how did most of you come up with your edges? Did you come up with an idea on your own or out of a book...

Cramer says to get long. The perfect short setup is in ;-) Apple (AAPL_): "I think that $310 was the bottom. It sells at just three times cash. I believe that Apple can go higher."...

I liked Eric more when he was just a trader....
