k im in high school i am very well aware of the risks involved so ill only start with $1000 to trade options i trade stocks and for the past 4 years ive had an average annual return of 133% im right 8/10 times on average (i know hard to believe but true)… anyway so ive heard of people doubling their money in a matter of a week!!! so say i double my money every month for say 7 months i would have around 100K right? i mean this does not seem to hard if i bet on sure things that i know will move the way i want them to.. so like has anyone done something similar to this?? or anything??
i dont need any negativiy just because you cant do it dosnet mean i cant ! kazol
p.s. im a lot different from everyone else thats for one thing! for one the only thing i really care about is the market its market or mafia in my world!
even if i cant manage to return 100% a month i could still do pretty good i think and even if i can turn 1000 into 20K thats still pretty darn good

I bought an IShares Canada Index Call Option and would like to know if anyone has traded these with good results? Mine is EWCFN June ’07 Call Strike prce $28.00 IT IS AT THE MONEY. Do Index Options tend to have UPWARD trends? It would seem to me this would be good for a CALL option on one of these? Thanks

You get more bang for your buck with options. More reward, less risk with options.

I need to learn more about options, but for now it seems the way to go. Why put a lot of money into stocks, when you could use options instead?

I can just envision not getting my trade in time.

I’m kind of confused on how the trade in stuff works at Gamestop.. Do they pay you money for your games/consoles or do they just give you money off for a different game/console? Someone explain, please.

forextrade1970 asked:


Hello. I want to trade options only long calls and long puts instead of trading just stocks. The problem is that when i trade in the money contracts for the next month for example the expected profit is lower than the risked money. Is there a solution to this problem? I mean i want to risk as little as i can and my profit to be higher than the risked money.

Thanks

Had this under investing category too.
I have been an RR since 1997. Currently at an order entry desk but would like to trade for profit. Does anyone have a place to recommend. Ones I have looked at want me to put up my own money, like $20-50k or have said I am over qualified. Please let me know if there are openings out there. I love trading but am sick of dealing with clients, just want to execute my strategies. All I’m looking for is the name of a place, who to call, or send my resume to.

I just started investing in stocks this year and am finding the maze of details and information about investing methods overwhelming. I’m also sensing that those who make careers of this are in a much better position to know how to trade, whether using options, calls, puts, etc. I signed up for a number of newsletters from professionals who then try to sell me their services, claiming they have inside information that can make a lot of money. They charge anywhere from $100 to $6,000. for their “inside information”, and while I’m sure they know much more than I do I’m wondering what the rewards vs. risk is if I decide to use their recommendations.

Hello Friends,
I traded a nice Aussie saddle for misc. things to a couple in a group we are in.
Just this morning we get a phone call wanting to trade the saddle back. We had already traded off a few of the things from this trade…and they had it on there horse so we do not know what kind of condition this saddle is now in.
I did not talk to the lady, but Mr. took the phone call and told me she wants to trade back.
This puts us in a BIG bind. I have been trading around most my life and can not remember when someone did this to me in the past. A trade is a trade. If they bought this saddle from us this would have been a little diffarent….I would have put the money aside. However they needed a saddle and did not have the money to pay for it.
What would you do, or what are your thoughts…
I will add the saddle while in our hands was very clean and no ware was present. We do not no what to do with the items we already traded, sold off that was part of this deal.
We are new to this group where we met these people. This brings up a hole host of problems. These people know everyone while we only know a few people in the group. So politics is involved….
Add, nothing wrong with the saddle at all, very sound. I was gong to use it on my young filly, but for health reasons this has to be put off. We told them we have a nice roping saddle they have a option to have as well. They choose this Aussie saddle for it looks flashy.
