Should SiriusXm sign Rush Limbaugh?
Well, I guess I was mistaken. It hasn't changed. It was good while it lasted. By the way DuMbass, I am not midas.

Not trying to peg blame on anyone or be the thread police, just an observation. It is, however, much improved and I congratulate you guys on the obvious effort! Just a bit more and I am certain we will all agree that we can have a great forum going forward from here!
I am realy busy and don't have the time to sift through the cc info, but did Liberty have a positive, meh, or negative one?
You've be "checking periodically"?? on your little "experiment"??? And now you're here to render your judgement and congratulate everyone and tell us to maybe try a little harder to play nice???Quote:

I'll post whatever the **** comment I want to post dipshit. If you don't like it you have the same option as everyone else; Put me on ignore or **** off and go somewhere else.
Newflash you arrogant prick, we ALL check in periodically because, even though you may have started it, IT'S NOT YOUR TREAD and you don't make the rules. There are no rules.
Whew!! now that I've got all that off my chest I can report that yesterday I played perhaps the worst round of golf all season. Everything went out the window and the wheels came completely off.
Today, I shot probably the best round all year.....go figure.
one trade today +400 IFON 5k shares in 1.87 out 1.95Quote:

Most of those realized losses are from when I tried, once again, to play the VIX. Like Charlie Brown trying to kick that football and it works out for me the same way every time!
edit 1:...sorry, had to add a zero to those numbers.
Did SIRI just bounce off DM's $4.08?Quote:

In retrospect, ETF's would have been the way to go with those VIX bets. (and they are "bets", and not "investments") I think you are correct in that the way to play it, if you are so inclined, is to buy a VIX or inverse VIX etf and hold it. I guess I didn't go that route because the etf's don't actually track the VIX accurately...only picking up about 1/2 the move of the VIX itself. But to your point, at least they don't expire and you can usually just hold, and hold, and hold until you are eventually right.
I can't speak for most people but if you were me, would you be selling before the end of the year? - assuming taxable account (and it is)Quote:

Damn that dog is attracted to that 4.08. Glad it's been hard nipped support so far.....Quote:

I am up 300 on my siri purchase but actually really only 200 as they will not sell me 4.12.
I was going to sell my 2.09's for 2.11 and just take the quick 200.00 but got distracted. Had i done so....i would have had a $600 day. Instead i have to settle for a 400.00 dollar day which is just fine by me.
If one can make 400.00 a day...not really all that difficult to do, that adds up to some nice bank. I think there are approx 250 trading days in the year give or take. Lets say for whatever reason you trade only 200 of those days. 400 a day x 200 = 80k gross. Those are conservative numbers i think.
just put my 4.09's for a limit sell of 4.12. After hour high was just over 4.12. It prob wont hit...but worth a shot.
Hi LB how ya been man?
