    Can linear regression analysis really predict the future?

    I think the point here is that the signals are self fulfilled... If large number of persons/systems rely on the same support level to start a trade at the same time (with the Spontaneous Synchronization rule), then that support level works. The same for EMA crosses, if lots of persons rely...

    SOLR for solar energy stocks

    I think the same happened with the CDs and DVDs.... nothing is for always, but for some time it is useful. I think the future of electric energy storage is superconductor batteries, but I think they are far away, and cell fuel are more near. And about the PV, solar energy is the most abundant...

    SOLR for solar energy stocks

    It's good to know that. I don't live in a developed country so I don't have access to fuel cells and the PV is expensive. But i see the potential on every electric and electronic device in the world, and I don't see any of these devices using that type of technology already. So I think there is...

    Who create the option's strike prices?

    Ah, I see, so if a stock is on Nasdaq, is the Nasdaq who create the options... Is there some rules for that? Why some stocks in very low prices (less than 2$) have options and others not?

    Who create the option's strike prices?

    Hi! I didn't found in the Internet who (institution or person or whatever) create the different strike prices on a stock. Why some have lot of strike prices, and others only a couple of them. Do you know some information source to read about this?

    SOLR for solar energy stocks

    Do you know about cell fuel? I wish to know some ETF or company that makes hydrogen cell fuels, because in combination with solar energy I think are the future, specially for powering the cars. Just think on this: your house with a grid of solar panels connected to a electrolyzer that split...

    SOLR for solar energy stocks

    I don't like WGOV.... very high debt, a little expensive, I don't want to cooperate with the army in any way if possible, and they do things that use oil, instead of clean energy.

    In the Money covered call + premium

    Thanks. Well, the stock is now below the strike, and if it finishes below I will not be able to test what happens there :( But what I really tested right now is the strategy with 100 long stock, 1 short call in the money with very good premium (25%>) and a far in time long put. With...

    In the Money covered call + premium

    Today the stock was about 4.3, down from the 6.5. With the strategy I'm testing, I have a 4.5 put and with the covered call at 2.25. The current value is call: 2.25 put: 1.8 stock: 4.35 That leaves with total value of 8.4. If I bought it at 6.5, at this time I'm in loss with the...

    COCO - Takeover Chatter Pops Vol. Stock Off Year Lows

    I see that Coco has very high debt/equity ratio... maybe this is not as good for long term

    Short ratio or Short %

    Hi! I'm looking for short ratio and short % as a way to increase the odds of a trade. I read that low short ratio (something < 3) is considered bearish and high about >8 is bullish, but what about Short %? Which one is more "important" or has more influence? Or is a combination of both?

    Beta Weight Portfolio

    As I know the beta is the measure of volatility. A beta of 1 means that if the market goes up by 1, then the stock also goes up by one. A beta of (-1) means that if market goes down by 1, the stock goes up by 1. So balancing the beta of the portfolio with low, medium, high and negative beta...

    SOLR for solar energy stocks

    Hi! What do you think about SOLR? They provide design of solar equipment, also service solar cells and some materials to making the solar cells. It looks good with P/E 11, PEG .18, maybe a little expensive with P/B 5.33. The long term growth is almost on the head with 50%, ROE of 65%...

    But what about the far future (>5months) long put plus the premium? Thant protects partially the invest, isn't it?

    In the Money covered call + premium

    Is the same with covered calls? I know that uncovered calls are very risky, but covered calls of value or growth stocks should not be too risky, isn't it? I read that a value/growth stock with a covered call on it is less risky than the stock alone. Value = P/E 5-25 P/B 0.2-2 ROE >15%...

    In the Money covered call + premium

    can you explain why it is going to lose? I'm using virtual trade, so I want to learn why it will lose. Also I'm testing with some other symbols (ARNA is one, QCOR other, VXX and so on) Right now ARNA max risk is limited to about 30%, also the max gain is limited about 25% on September. If...

    Wealthy Option Traders

    I think it is possible to get a good return with options using covered calls. They don't give stunning gains, but small, consistent gains of about 1.5%-3.5% monthly. Over time this could compound to a level that the 1.5% monthly will be enough for living. And yes, that will take some time, maybe...
