Great time for the Fed to come in with a surprise 50bp cut in both the Fed Funds and Discount, haha! :D Looks like a down market tomorrow,...
You'd have to call them to get a commission schedule customized to you. I was quoted $5 r/t for 30-40 sides a day and opening with $25k, which is...
We don't get too many outages over here in Illinois, unless it's a really bad storm and I just close out or limit my positions. What's even...
I know this is crazy, but I think we'll see much more volatile days than we have these 2 days this week. I am forecasting a 500 point change one...
Back to Jan 2007 levels on Citigroup in 3-5 years ($54+)
True, I have no idea if this a bottom and time will tell. I don't think we're done with the bull market, although the first 2 quarters will be a...
Longer term, I think the financials are a buy, Citi, Merrill, Goldman (once it gets below $175), Morgan, and possibly the regional banks. The...
I don't think we'll be down big on Monday, maybe marginally up. I think some are starting to hope on the Fed for a surprise rate cut, like we had...
Time for your official 2008 predictions for the market. What do you think the Dow, S&P, and Nasdaq will end up year-end? It might be too early to...
Tomorrow is a full-fledged, abysmal volume day at the NYSE. The CME has a shortened floor close for commodities, Globex closes at regular times...
I'm sticking with tech stocks for a long-term 08 hold. I'll be buying AAPL, MSFT, GOOG, and other well-capitalized stocks on dips. Once...
Ever since they started the penny pilot on options, market makers are probably trying to make it up on the other options classes. If you don't...
Ahh, I remember going to library and hearding around those S&P stock books that had the charts with moving averages (ooohhhh) in the late 70s and...
Oh, this thread really brings me back to the great market in the late 80s. I remember opening an account up at Merrill Lynch, one of the best...
Look at this chart of the Dow. Looks like a setup for a down day tomorrow IMO.
Covered my short today at $117.74, so took a small loss from last night. Good thing I didn't hold.
Nice move after-hours, eh? Got out at $117.30, reversed position to be short 200 shares.
I love scalping in higher-spread stocks like AAPL, GOOG, CME, and MA. The only time I'll do this, however, is from 9:30 to 9:45 and 3:30 to 4:00,...
23.8%, very happy with it with the volatility we had. Mainly up due to lots of great international exposure (Canada and China funds), large equity...
The best trade ever recently was basically caused by my brokerage and one of their floor traders. I sold 25 ES (S&P eminis) at like 1524.75 and...
