Haha, I made this account during the collapse of Lehman.

By cheap entry, u mean u dont hv to pay the hefty brokerage (eg transaction costs) right?

No, not on the brokerage fee. The fee is another factor but not a MAJOR reason.
My brokerage fee is flat $4.95 or $2.50-3.00 (depending on broker)


Cheap entry - let me illustrate to you via Apple.

Assume you have $2000 to trade that Apple will hit $600 in 2-3 months time

BUY Apple stock @ $579/a piece now means u can buy 3 shares (579 x 3 = 1,737)

Now go LONG or Strike.
Target SEPT 2012 @ 700

$8.21 x 2 Options = $1642. So now you have a total of 200 "shares". So 2 shares vs 200 shares > That's where the "cheap" concept kicks in.

BUT WAIT - don't get over excited. Options is very dangerous.

Assume the price hit $600, so your main stock gained : $21x2 =$42 less brokerage
Options assume around $12, thus making it $3.79 x 200 = $758 - less brokerage.

Z: Good trade!  LVS had a good reversal day and closed pretty strong.
I'm out of LVS but still hanging on my MPEL. Holding a substantial amount.  laugh.gif

Next ECB meeting.. going to see if they will have a coordinated effort to push this silly market back up and I'll be waiting for next short opportunity at the next resistance level.

MPEL is doing well despite slow movement in Macau. Q2 Net profit margin 11.54%
Good range yesterday for MPEL.

Nope..no regret. I've got MPEL. Same thing.  wink.gif
Ask Z for LVS - he's probably still riding it.

Just ride the green wave ..with trailing stop. If get stop out, that's ok. Take your money off the table.
Remember, it's the third day of up.. also usually traders will take money off for weekend.

SOLD LVS on tight TS, 2 days back. Still a healthy profit. Cover some losses on MU.

Apple hit emergency brake last night.

Casino operators like MPEL, LVS & MGM running down the bump for now.

Re-enter MPEL or LVS when the tide is running.

Your price range of Apple is almost not likely, same case of LVS. Just buy small volume and get done over it.

I Q at 11.00, didn't hit, then loaded some at 11.25. What a wrong method of chasing!!!

Z: Goodness..did you take on the "ah long" broker margin?

Anyway, both SP500 and Dow aren't looking too healthy tonight.  Dow almost -200 pts.

I'm looking for late buyers to come in towards in the end to bring this back up - for short covering otherwise
I'll abandon my positions at $SPX 1349 by closing or get stopped out at 1345 whichever come first.

I was wrong previously, predicted it will hit 640 after last ER but the macroeconomic factor pull the stock down. I am going to gamble 10% of my investment in some short term options as I am predicting a huge jump in the stock after closing.  I know yesterday was a good chance to enter but I miss it.

far away from it. Jumping off the cliff thumbup.gif
