What'd you say? You being a wise guy with me?
How about this. I'll put up what I made in my actual trade, $10000. that my trade was real. You propose how to verify. I'll put up another $10000. that your trade was not real. Have the Wizard hold the $40000. Winner takes $20000 on each challenge. If you're not willing to take up both challenges, don't expect me to bother commenting much on your nonsensical posts in the future.

Years ago, when I had friends that worked on Wall Street they told me this is a dangerous time of the year. Brokers work for their salary, but they live for their year-end bonus which can be more than their salary.
Many firms base bonus's on Jan 1 to Thanksgiving, so December is a period of coasting.

First off, day trade swing trade not any difference tax wise, just have to be aware of wash sale rule issues. I have gone into this in detail before, but there are two ways to deal with it, one is to have a separate account for trading and have it designated for trader status, another is to stop trading any particular stock you traded all year for the entire month of December so that your bases catch up with you. Those are simplifications of the bottom line.
My tax philosophy is that I'd rather book all winners and pay the taxes than have any losers with which to offset. Ah, but that wash sale rule. (See above.)

He may be referring to a period in the past when I had not had a losing STOCK trade in about two years, and even that is misleading because I pointed out that after that approximately two year winning streak there came a period where I did lose on two shorts where if I had held just a few more hours or one more day I would have made money.

Speaking of which - HOW ABOUT THAT TSLA. Every time it drops below 1000, it roars back above. Bank it!
Yes the day may come where it drops below and stays below for a bit, but, that day has not yet come!

Don't even thank me. I hit it at 955, and it's 972 now. Cha’Ching!
It didn't look like it was going to go that low, but on the third pass, it did, and I got a fill. Went even lower, as is its wont, but steady climb since. I'm looking for 975, and it already dipped below that. Let's see what happens but it's greenie all the way. May pull the sell trigger if it drops back to 965. Ten points is ten points.
And again, this is just trading extra shares on top of my long term TSLA.

Just stick with MDawg ideas. You could do a whole lot worse! As mentioned, I have held AAPL for about fifteen years straight now and only bot more along the way.
It has never appealed to me much if at all as a trading stock, but long term hodl, it continues to be awesome.

I have been wrong on AAPL as well…. But fortunately still own a bunch. I am just worried one of the other cell phone types (Android, Google, etc…) will make inroads into AAPL market share. Even if I sold every share I own I’d still own a lot in SPY, QQQ, IYY, TWCUX, etc…. I think I’m going to sell 10% or so of my AAPL.

Just for future reference, here are the two warning signs when it comes to start up biotech companies:
1 - They are proposing a "one size fits all" drug that is good for multiple diseases - when it doesn't get approval or work for one thing, they claim that it will be good for something else.
2 - They rebrand a drug that failed in the past (often distant past) for something or other, claiming that it is good for something else.

I guess I’ll have to agree with you.. sort of. When I started practicing around 1990 it was a pretty commonly used anti hypertensive. But it quickly was replaced with better drugs with fewer side effects. The side effect of unwanted hair growth became ‘give it to me because I want more hair growth’! For a very short while in my 40’s I sprayed some of that stuff on my head with little to no results.
Do you consider TSLA ‘on sale’ now? Are you beefing up on your long term holdings?

If you combine minoxidil (and you can't stop using it once you start), and a low dose of finasteride (same, you're stuck once you start), the combined fire power will retain all your hair for your entire life, or at least, it should. I think both of these work better at retaining hair than growing it back. Supposedly low dose finasteride reduces risk of prostate cancer too.
I wouldn't say that TSLA is "on sale" today but anytime it falls below 1000 it might be.

Wow. NFLX down over $100 after hours. Quit the cliff dive. This was around $700 six weeks ago. Closing in on $400. Not sure about others but I’m not a fan of the service. I have it, but it’s pretty slim pickings if you ask me. Lots of B type movies, Netflix originals with nobody actors and foreign films dubbed…which I hate. I’d rather watch it in its original language with subtitles. Nothing worse than words not matching mouth and some actor from Serbia with a Southern accent dubbed in.
I spent 20 minutes trying to find a decent movie yesterday. Add more A quality content.
