Not if you are not using margin. Or unless at least if the investor didn't sign an agreement to loan stock for short borrowing to collect some...
Yes and no I guess. A synthetic short put is where you are long 100 shares and sell a call. So the profit-payoff diagram is similar to naked...
You see, these 'pros' purport to have the skills to time the market to perfection. Technically they don't need stop loss. It goes up as soon as...
Certainly not for your average buy and hold mom&pop investor. Probably an allocation of their total portfolio into index funds may be the way to...
As is typical you have your shills and your snakesoil salesman. You, dbpheonix, falls in the latter. You keep talking about 'your system'. Nobody...
Its semantics. Not math. Your math skills on the other hand are questionable as evidenced by your lack of understanding over the risks of loss to...
I never proposed anything about using stops. So this whole 4 point stop loss thing is your imagination. The only points I've ever made here is...
