Complete newb on options. Anyone have any easy to understand reading on options (basics)? Where do I start? Most common options, etc.
ok I figured, didn't think it was so black and white or green and red I should say
I saw someone post on a specific stock's board that big volume late day is big selling.. Is this true? How can you tell if the volume is for buying or selling?
I think we see more down sloping before a return but the return won't be as great as the drops due to restrictions
Target price for BAC for me to get in is 5.20s preferably 5.teens
I'm a new trader and have a short position on MCD. Anyone else see this dropping a few points after 5 days of gains?
Not to defend AT&T but T-Mobile sucks regardless, imo
Again on dividends. What happens if I'm shorting a stock durng the ex date? Do I get a dividend if I'm shorting the company?
Anyone know exact dates for the stress test results and\or the realease date of their 10q
What's a good entry point? Thinking .35-.45? If it get's there?
well I'll take that as somewhat as a good sign. I have a pretty good track record with the short period of time I've been trading so adding level II should only help me. Where's the best place to get level II quotes?
wow... sounds like I should have asked this question a long time ago. So basically if I'm actively day trading, I'm doing it blind with out level 2 quotes? Level 2 data is basically only a good reflection on limit orders though right? If I make a market order there is no way they can tell I'm in line to buy
When I hold a position on a very active stock I see a lot of people on the subsequent board talking about seeing a lots of shorts being bought. Can someone explain where to get this "behind the scenes" information and explain in fair detail what level 2 is?
I saw an intereview where Buffet called himself a "aerohalic" where he always is a sucker for buying airline stocks but maintains to stay away from them
dispersing extra cash? never knew there was such a concept
I'd prefer the cash as well.. One more thing on dividens. Why would companies opt to offer a dividend? I see Apple and Google don't pay out dividends and those companies are doing pretty well. Is it an incentive play to attract investors?
Sounds like a good play once I have my portfolio up. Does that money get deposited directly into my investment account or do they send a check?
That's fine, I'll search around for that answer. I never really care about volatility either but always struck my curiousity what the number indicated. Would like to know anyone's interpretation though
Is there much money to be made in dividend shopping. Theoretticaly if I had 1000 shares in VZ from yuor scenario I could make a quick $500 over night right?
I know I am bombarding this board with questions simultaneously but online explanations through web sites are so text book and thus a bit hard to understand. My question is about volatility average. I know a larger number indicates higher changes in stock prices but what is considered high and what is considered low?
again I appreciate the help. So no matter what.. I could buy a stock a day before the dividends are paid and receive the dividend. The amount of time I have in the stock only is going to determine my tax status or rate?
Can someone tell me a generalized number (Percentage) that I will be paying towards tax as income and not capital gains as I am a day trader.
I appreciate the information. Is there a certain time I would have needed to buy into VZ to get the dividend? I know I can't sell before the ex date but is there a date I have to have owned the stock to get the dividend? Or could I possibly buy into the company a few days before the ex date and then recieve the dividend for only being a share holder for a few days?
Hello all I am trying to undertand dividends better. Can someone explain to me how I can know how much dividend I will be paid (dollar amount or percentage?) if I am eligible and what makes me eligible for a dividen?
I personally would like to know about stop loss
-newb investor
it's half a percent of your principal, I only stayed in for about a percent I thought it was reversing.
Is city down mainly because of the euro crisis? Bounce play tomorrow?
newb day trader here, jumped in and out to get my feet wet on this stock. profited about 80 dollars, should have stayed in a little while longer but just found out I owe 60 of that 80 to special commision fees through scottrade because the stock is less then a dollar.. still in the green for the day but lesson learned
what will a short squeeze do to the price?
trading is looking pretty stagnant
again with the newbness... can someone tell me what PPS is and it's importance?
I'm a newb to a lot of investing terminology. Can someone give me a brief but detailed explanation of what market cap is and it's importance on a stock?
I see it too will be watching this one for a bounce play
Do you have idea's on a low price?
what's your target price for re-entry? I'm thinking anything under 5.45
What does LOD and HOD stand for?
Does anyone know when the next quarterly reports come out?
was a little disappointed not to see the run go to .90s but still a good run
