    http://online.wsj.com/article/BT-CO-20110327-701901.html Looks like sarkozy and merkall suffered some losses. Sarkozy looks to leave in 2012 and merkalls cry party lost some power. I also read in another article the the fdp party (which are anti ftt) also lost some power.

    Better off as a plumber?

    Plumbing isn't really a great way to make money unless you run your own business. I know a few plumbers/roofers/general contractors that run their own business and make 6 figures easy. Many own a few homes. The guys working for them aren't really pulling it in though. I've worked in construction...

    Mac Book Air

    I meant comparable in power if you want something that is indestructible thats where Panasonic tough books come in. Hell lenovos t series is tougher. In terms of networking. Windows and linux dominate that area. If OSX were so amazing then why did apple drop there server support. Do you...

    Mac Book Air

    Macs are overpriced IMO. Go build one on apples site and build a similar system from dell/hp/sony etc. You also cannot remove the battery your self and Ive heard of heating issues with the i7 MBP. The sony Im using now was 1/3 of the price of a similar mac at the time.

    It's that time of year again.

    Interesting movie. Theres a reason why directional traders make consistent money. Its possible and you can't break down human emotion (what drives the market) into a formula/strategy that is always correct. Theres a reason why cutting your losers short works, the unexpected that no one can...

    Secret edge , loophole .....

    I disagree. You cannot make money by fighting the market. They will always have more money then you and can hold out longer. You want to be the feeder fish that attaches to the shark. Go along for the ride, let the market (hedge/mutual funds and banks)pushout those bluffing with a weak hand. If...

    HowardCohodas Index Options Credit Spread Trading Journal

    Well the stock can move anywhere past 110 and you still make money and the farther it goes the more you make. With the spread it has to stay within a $10 range and in order for you to make the $50 it has to stay there for the duration of the contract (30/45/etc. days) due to the fact that the...

    3 Straight months of gains, Bulls will continue to collect free money!

    Generally speaking, I'll agree with that. Truth is we've rallied to far from the start of the year. Unless there is a major crises, year should end up being green. The 21st and 23rd had a great pull back and the yearly high and yearly open are major levels to watch (anything can happen in the...
