Thanks everybody!
You are always welcome to ask me questions.
Thanks for the info! I might hit you up for some pointers once I get started if thats cool. Going to start off simple tho till I get the hand of it and learn more of the vocab and what not.
I would add that I don't buy stock anymore....
If I really wanted a long position in a company, I would buy a deep in-the-money (DITM) CALL with a delta near 1.0. I could do this with a lot less capital, a low erosion variable, and expose myself to the near the same movement of the underlying that owning the stock outright would afford me.
You would only use a "married put" if you are in fact buying the security and you want some downside protection. This does involving spending money on a long (put) option that might expire worthless, so you overall breakeven is higher, but your downside risk is protected. I wouldn't do this for one simple fact...I am not buying a stock that is not momentum driven and I feel has a huge upside potential based on Technical analysis. If I am also purchasing a "married put", already I have doubts in the momentum and thus I would think twice about entering the underlying in the first place.
Options is the way to go...I encourage you to learn more.
Thanks LDH! Im want to start getting into options as soon as I get my margin acct up a Lil bit. So you don't buy stock at all any more? I heard married puts are good but I think you have to own a stock and a put option at the same time right? Anyways, hope your trades are going well.

The term is Cash secured equity puts.
It is a pretty common strategy and very risk averse.
Essentially, you are getting paid for a stock that you would like to buy at a lower price. If the price doesn't hit, you walk away with extra "credit" and can re-establish the position the next month. If the strike you set expires in-the-money (ITM), you now own the stock, but were paid a "premium" in the process.
The caveat (downside) is that if the stock you sell (write) a Put option on goes far enough below your strike to more than cancel out your premium you received for the transaction, you can actually lose money. But then you own a stock you wanted anyway and can sell it at your convenience.
Never write a PUT (Cash secured equity put) on a security you don't want to own. And...never right to many contract that you can't cover with your capital balance. Otherwise, you will have a naked put and the margin requirements will go up dramatically.
It is a good strategy. Just never have done it because I don't want to own stock...lol.

New 49ers GM Asks If Team Can Use Draft Picks For Something Other Than Football Players
SAN FRANCISCO—San Francisco's newly minted general manager, former scout Trent Baalke, asked the NFL head office for clarification on a point of order Monday over whether the team is required to exchange its draft picks for a football player. "Our roster has plenty of guys on it, so I believe the franchise should look to address other needs through the draft, like for instance we don't have a trampoline or a pontoon boat," said Baalke, who said he would consider trading the seventh pick in the first round to any team who could offer him a set of beanbag chairs. "If we have to get an athlete, I'm thinking maybe a power forward. We don't have one of those right now." NFL commissioner Roger Goodell is expected to deny the request, saying the last time he allowed San Francisco to use a draft pick for non-football player purposes they wasted them on Utah's Alex Smith.
Economists Gently Suggest American Manufacturing Maybe Start Again With Something Simple Like A Ball
WASHINGTON—After conducting an in-depth analysis of the nation's industrial output and long-term economic future, leading economists delicately suggested this week that maybe American manufacturers might want to think about abandoning their current products and start over with something nice and simple, such as a ball.
Claiming that the nation's standing within the increasingly competitive global marketplace was perhaps not what it once was, the economists gently encouraged American producers to "wipe the slate clean" and rebuild their confidence by starting fresh with a plain, basic ball.
"You really shot for the moon and tried to do something grand, and we think that's just great," read a statement from the American Economic Association that was addressed to the nation's manufacturing sector. "But let's face it, the whole American manufacturing thing hasn't worked out quite as well as we'd hoped, so we think there's no shame in just paring down your ambitions slightly and focusing on making a really good ball, no more, no less. How does that sound?"
"Just give it a shot; it couldn't hurt, right?" the statement continued. "We think you'd be really good at it."
Echoing the AEA's statement, economists nationwide have carefully prodded manufacturers to adopt the ball-making plan. They have reportedly advised producers not to worry themselves with complex questions of whether the ball should be hollow or solid, suggesting instead that they focus solely on believing in themselves and making the best ball they can.
"American manufacturers are ambitious and they're naturally going to want to add flashing lights and microchips to the ball," said industrial economist Rick Mattoon of Northwestern University. "But we think it would be a good idea if they fully mastered the fundamental aspects of the ball before moving on. For example, manufacturers should ask themselves, 'Is our product round? Does it roll?' If not, then they should just keep at it—we know they'll get the hang of it eventually."
"Once they've demonstrated proficiency, then they can try something more ambitious, like a red ball or a green ball or even a ball that bounces," Mattoon added.
The AEA also proposed that U.S. manufacturers convene at a central location where they could all learn the ball-making procedure up close, with each company having the opportunity to observe and participate in the assembly of a ball before returning to their own factories to attempt the process themselves.
A guide released by the AEA not only provides step-by-step ball-fabrication instructions, but also contains supportive and encouraging language aimed at instilling in manufacturers the idea that they are every bit as deserving of success as rising industrial powers such as China and Brazil.
"As long as everyone tries their hardest at making a good ball, there's no reason the U.S. can't reemerge as a world-class manufacturing nation," AEA vice president Timothy Bresnahan said. "Optimistically, by the end of the decade we could see a flourishing industry that produces everything from a dowel to a cup to a different-sized ball."
The response within the American manufacturing sector has thus far been overwhelmingly positive, with hundreds of aerospace, home appliance, and electronics corporations readily discontinuing their more complicated products in favor of a simple little ball.
"We switched our equipment over to ball-production two days ago and things couldn't be going better," said Daniel Akerson, chairman and CEO of General Motors. "We're making 15 tons of balls a day, they're coming out nice and round, and we're just overjoyed with how much we're accomplishing. I'd completely forgotten how great it feels to make a product you're actually proud of."
As of press time, all 4.1 million balls so far produced by U.S. manufacturers had been recalled for posing a choking hazard and leaching dangerous toxins.

GOP Completely Fixes Economy By Canceling Funding For NPR
MAY 25, 2011 | ISSUE 47•14
WASHINGTON—Unemployment plummeted and stocks soared Tuesday after Republican leaders fulfilled their promise to cut funding for National Public Radio, a budgetary move that has completely rejuvenated the flagging U.S. economy. "Since eliminating federal spending for NPR, America's economic outlook is brighter than it's been in decades, with manufacturing on the rise and millions of jobs once sent overseas now returning to our shores," said Sen. Mark Kirk (R-IL), adding that by eliminating funds for NPR, the deficit has been slashed by 0.000004 percent and a newly thriving middle class once again has cause to believe in the American dream. "Pulling funding for Car Talk and Planet Money alone has created 4.2 million jobs and generated a $2 trillion budget surplus." Republicans announced Thursday they will now turn their attention to cutting the National Park Service, a move that should ensure Social Security's solvency for the next 350 years.

The 5 Fundamental Truths of Trading
1. Anything can happen.
2. You don't need to know what is going to happen next in order to make money.
3. There is a random distribution between wins and losses for any given set of variables that define an edge.
4. An edge is nothing more than an indication of a higher probability of one thing happening over another.
5. Every moment in the market is unique.
