Quote from t0pd0g:
I disagree that the stock market is a zero sum game....where every time someone makes money someone has to lose. For example, when LNKD opened at $81 today and I bought there and sold at $82, who lost?
Every trader I talked to made money going long LNKD today!
Another example...A stock closes at $25 one day with no shorts outstanding and opens the next day at $30. Who lost money?
Options and futures zero sum...stocks not.

Why do the people who claim one can't make money trading spend so much time on ET trying to prove it to others?
Why don't they spend all that time learning to trade?
Too simple, huh?
