Wow my first online brokerage was through Prodigy - I think it was called PCFN (Personal Control Financial Network). It was probably the DLJ arm and eventually renamed DLJ Direct and it was then transferred to Harris Direct.
From the "tone" of your post, sounds like you think that's not a great idea <g>. Sorry if I'm being dense, but it looks like we took out the January highs today. I was just thinking any pullback after this run from 1.42 to 11.84 in just 2 months might be a decent percentage gainer.
Speaking of shot out of a cannon, LVS was up another 20% today (MGM was 35% & WYNN was 16%). Do you think these are good short candidates as they approach the 200 MA on the daily?
They already did about 2 weeks ago but the beat goes on.
O/T My ice cream store sells Nestle Toll House chocolate ice cream - very popular!
As a small business owner, I can tell you that my employees wouldn't have $240 - $400 extra per week because I'd be out of business.
Wow - all the way back over the morning high on SPX. How do you see the afternoon playing out AJ?
So you think we finally fill the gap on S&P?
Neckline at about 896?
You were expecting more? You called 864 for today's top yesterday - lol - good call.
I may be misinterpreting but I think you can buy and then sell puts on the financials, you just can't exercise them. I bought C puts just before the close Friday in my ETrade acct. I guess I'll know for sure if they close them out for me.
Any chance of a chartologist update over the weekend?
Can't pull up quotes on VIX options so I guess not.
$VIX works in E*Trade MarketTrader.
I think you mean southern "drawl". If she's drooling, that might be a problem <g>.
I think it's because Bush is a known quanity as pres, and Kerry is not, thus uncertainty.
What's up with your orphan UFPT? Nice move.

Hi AJ,
The COMP / NDX ratio seems to move around alot. If we "only" reach Zeev's COMP target of 2450 - 2500, where would you expect the NDX to be? I'm guessing 1796 - 1831 if you're using a .7 ratio?
Thanks,
Jim
How about a 2:22 bump.

Will you re-establish the Q today?
Could've, probably should've (AGM) but I was probably a victim of "clouded judgment" since my plan was to hold it a while and I just got it this week at 26.85. Hopefully will work out okay.

Hi Zeev,
Will a breach of $55 cause you to dump the double position of COCO?

The only advertising I've heard is for XMSR. That is one of the attractions of the service.

I am part owner of a walk-up ice cream shop. We play music outside the building for our customers. I have been told that any music provided for the public is subject to ASCAP and BMI royalty fees. This includes simply playing local radio stations. XMSR and SIRI (as well as Muzak) can take care of the royalty payments through licensing I believe. Failure to pay the fees can result in large penalties (thousands of dollars I've heard). My commercial account is $24.95/month.

9/12/2001 (market closed) was on that same list of all-time high equity P/C ratio dates as 9/2/2001 (Sunday), so it just further confirms your statement that something was wrong with that data.
And I believe market was closed 9/12/01.
Zeev, are you still holding your QCOM from Wednesday at 38.36?
I must have missed that entry, but I am about to double up myself.

Playing with CCMP this afternoon?
How do you determine where the COMP should be based on the price of QQQ? I opened some DEC 25 puts on QQQ today and want to estimate the QQQ price if we eventually hit Zeev's target of COMP 1222.
Thanks,
Jim
I tried to play INTU this morning and felt lucky to get out at +.06. You've done well with earnings plays lately so I may try it again.
Hi ajtj,
Any thoughts on homebuilders right now? BZH especially seems ready to hit some resistance soon.
Thanks.

Hi Zeev,
INTU taking a big hit today. Do you see it getting back above 50 on this mini-ramp in the next couple weeks?
Thanks,
Jim
