    why all the crying about bullets?

    But when you go short using a bullet, aren't you really just selling stock that your firm already owns? So you are not really going short at all and so the downtick rule should not apply. Thanks

    why all the crying about bullets?

    I thought that bullets were covered sells. Can someone please explain to me how bullets can be illegal? I thought that the firms owned the easy to borrow stocks and for that reason, traders who worked for the firms were able to sell the stocks (i.e. the traders could sell the stock without...

    What made him do these ting, hatred and arrogance?

    I think that he may not be guilty of all the murders he confessed to and wouldn't be surprised if this came out at some point in the future after his deal is made. DAs and Cops can be wicked; they oftentimes just want to pin hard to solve murders on anybody so that the 48 murder cases are...

    If one believes in evolution, then all human brains should have evolved at the same rate. Thus 100% would be more on target than just 95% (your 95% claim seems to imply that some human brains can be more highly evolved than others).

    You are right to say that direct experience is not always evidence. I've been saying all along that reality is more than just what your senses tells you it is. How can we trust our senses? And if we can't trust our senses, how much less can we trust our science? When we see things, our faith...

    All I am saying is that with changes in centuries, civilizations experience changes in religions.....our current century's religion appears to be science (i.e. people tend to believe that the tenets of current scientific knowledge are accurate and complete)...in 1000 years from now, who KNOWS...

    Your faith in science tells you that in all likelihood, water will be there for you tomorrow. But what if science is wrong? What if by some unexplainable happenstance, ALL water on the earth dried up overnight? I think we'd all be praying for water (scientists and religious fanatics alike)...

    Your computer shows a 67.5% chance that a certain setup will end up profitable, right? And you believe your computer? You mean you actually have faith that what your computer is telling you is correct? Suppose for the sake of argument that your computer was giving you accurate information and...

    Thanks. Well, whatever you've been doing seems to have been working for you. I KNOW it must be faith.....and any faith, I believe, is faith in God! That's my own personal view! Thanks

    Thinking religion is BS is different from proving it. Your belief that religion is BS is as scientific as my belief in God. I respect your opinion but please know that we are 'wearing the same boots,' so to speak! I just can't believe a successful trader, which economics (i.e. science) tells...

    But you don't seem to realize that every trade you make is a prayer! A prayer that buyers or sellers will be there to reinforce a trend. A prayer that economic theory is all wrong when it suggests that successful traders can not exist!

    $1000 into $522,200 in 8 days?! Is this possible?

    I think that in the currency market you get like 100:1 leverage so he was able to trade $100,000 worth of currency with only $1,000 deposit. I suppose we could look back at the historical chart prices to determine if that was possible....i think i'll do that! But if the guy traded currency...

    Which according to Soros, is affected by the supply and demand. I think it is more complex than you make it out to be! You seem to have a lot of faith in the equilibrium theory of markets......but don't you know equilibrium theory says that successful traders (i.e. those that beat the major...

    You don't need to believe in God, but faith implies a belief system based on that for which there is no proof. Faith in the markets, faith that buyers will be there cause you see a hammer pattern, faith that sellers will be there cause of shooting stars or whatnot, faith in God.....it's really...
