oh boy...gail -- that's painful -- 4K. been there and still am there. :-( ever thought of trying playing OPTIONS ?? use less money for great gain/pain ?? poster "leemalone2k3" has some webinars set up. he a straight shooter -- no monkeying around. i still haven't figured options out. seems like my FIRST instinct -- i NEVER listen to. one could have been a millionaire/millionaires. 2 months ago -- saw a twitter post about an article in WSJ about Goldman Sachs and the SEC coming to an agreement. saw that there was hardly any action -- so didn't act upon looking @ the 160 calls which were @ .01 -- just saw action between the 140-150 calls and thought -- naw -- they wouldn't go to 160 -- lots of barking but no bites -- and i even posted here @ iHUB -- and none of the people here said boo -- and then when last half hour CNBC mentioned that the SEC was going to hold a conference call -- booooom! the call options on GS/goldman sachs skyrocketted -- along with the 160s which went that day from .01 to $1.06 -- so there were many multimillionaires made that day! $100 could have netted someone let's say $800K that day if one was to sell 1,000 contracts at let's say .85 ??
