Changing Markets

Triple 3-Dimensional Options Are

Human Action is a Direct Result of Your Belief System

Markets and Market Timing
This morning I was listening to a cable news network and in the span of about three minutes, I heard that home foreclosures increased 25%, job losses were on record pace, and Congress was meeting today to figure out where the 700 billion dollar bailout was actually going. This was enough to make
Contract Sizes and Strike Prices
When writing both put and call options over shares it’s important to check the underlying contract size before placing your order with your broker. Too often an option writer will automatically assume that one option contract in Australia is equal to 1,000 underlying shares. It can be a very
Become A Wise Trader
It is a wise person who recognizes his limitations, a courageous person who overcomes them, and a fool who does not recognize they exist. Children arrive into this world with two instinctive fears, fear of loud noises and fear of falling. All other fears are a learned and conditioned response.
