This is why I use Firefox with NoScripts Add-ons

I have the ability to allow / ignore JS on the page.

I understand bloggers make money via advertising.

But WTF! Make it unobtrusive versus in your face.

As the Calendar Turns, So Do Many Stocks’ Fortunes

Shocked, Surprised, Pleased, Ecstatic.

Hey Beanie,

Thanks for adding me to your blogroll.

Please be aware that I don't blog very much.

The main reason I put up this site is to justify my mad reasonings at Beanieville

I got tired of putting up the same information in the comments section so I put it here.

Shorting Against the Box

That is a very good article to read.

Here is an example.

You purchased 100 VMW @ 114.

VMW breaks support @ 104 can could possibly go to 96/93/85/82/73.

You don't want to sell VMW because you are already down 10 pts. But then if you hold it, it can go down further.

What you can do is short 100 VMW @104.

You MINIMUM loss is 10 points. Your maximum loss is unlimited.

Let's say you cover VMW at 84.

This wll give you 20 pts gain on the SHORT and 30 points loss on the LONG, net 10 pts loss.

HINDSIGHT IS 20/20.

No one could predict how low VMW can go. But if you look at the charts, the possibility of the stock falling to a price is more likely as the stock continues to break support and does not reverse course.

How many of your drives a brand new car paid for in cash and not have full coverage?

How to play the market.

When there is fear, buy QLD.

When there is greed, hedge by buying 20% SDS and 20% DXD.

Example: If you have 10,000 invested in QLD, hedge by buying 2,000 SDS and 2,000 DXD.
