AAPL is a ghost in the machine

Today would be a perfect day for a reversal. Maximum f*ck for minimum effort like the market loves to do.

Hi Guys, is there a way on IB to create your own spread combination (if that's what you call it) ... I'm trying to accomplish something like Buy 2 NFLX Sell 1 AAPL or Buy 2 IWM, Sell 1 SPY And IB will automatically calculate the Bid and Ask price for the spread. So I can just...

i was thinking, a guy such as Saddam Hussein - has he really caused as much suffering as a guy like Bernanke? when the Feds creates inflation and causes food prices to rise in different parts of the developing world, nobody bats an eye lash. people dying, unable to afford food, that's...

for the Stagflation that's about to be introduced to the rest of the world! Genius at work.

Silver and opium By Antal E Fekete The Opium Wars do not belong to the glorious episodes of Western history. Rather, they were instances of shameful behavior the West still has not lived down. Mercantilist governments resented the perpetual drain of silver from West to East in payment...

This market was as it was a few years back.. buy the dip. Every huge downside is a buying opportunity. Although in real dollar terms, the market hasnt gone up much especially if you're holding Australian dollar :D

Wow, the only way the US economy is surviving is for the Fed to create successions of Bubbles. In the near future, we will have bubbles after bubbles in a 2-3 year cycle because god forbid that real wealth and tangible products be created in the US.

Ok, has this f*cking world gone mad? The administration is asking the bank execs who were responsible for one of the worst economic crashes for advice on how to get out of the sh*thole? It's like you asking a bunch of bankrupt daytraders how to make money daytrading!!! WTF?
