I don't care how good he is. I want him to explain just how his friend made a fortune shorting vega and gamma when the rest of us just eke out...
Well I have TWS memory set to 1024M, which should be enough. As I said, I think it's probably a hardware issue so I'm going to try swapping in...
You get that $35 profit only of SPY is below 70 on the December expiration. SPY is just above 110 now so I wouldn't call that a forgone...
You'd have to sell a heck of a lot of premium to make 3300% in two years. When you sell an option short you must either set a substantial amount...
I guess they're busy eating pieces of paper with green ink on them.
I am going to investigate the possibility that there is something wrong with the video card that is causing the freeze ups. Given that other...
Well, now you're changing the game. Are the two random numbers always distinct?
Sure. I'll always pick 2 and then randomly and with equal probability select either 1 or 3. I always show you 2. Obviously you can be right...
The next paper from the Fed will prove the existence of the tooth fairy, who will save us from our indebtedness if we put enough teeth under our...
Read what I wrote. XP x64 is not capped to 4 Gb. TWS freezes up with every version of Java I've tried.

The crashes occur on an 8 Gb Windows XP-x64 machine with nothing else running. TWS is most emphatically the issue. It freezes up all the time,...
Long calendar spreads (long the long dated option, short the short dated option) don't require margin. Of course they only make money if the...
Seeing gold bars in Fort Knox (assuming they aren't gold plated tungsten...
That's really weird. It's like a web site that came out of mad scientist's bioengineering lab.
I like the low commissions with IB and I don't need hand holding. But the fact that TWS crashes within 10 minutes of starting it *every time*...
Until you realize that you are just renting it from the government. And the government can and does raise the "rent" any time it wants.
I have noticed the same phenomenon myself. An option will have a bid of 0.80 and an ask of 0.90. I put in a limit order to buy 6 contracts at at...
I've held some gold for a long time. (It would have to halve in price before I started to lose any money.) I sure wish people like deadbroke...
How about the choice: Yes, I fill it out honestly and will be rolling over 3K in losses each year for the rest of my life.
