Bwahahahahahaha!  You deleted your "gold won't stop going up" post???

Good thing; you spoke too soon!!! Wink

Nothing goes up in a straight line. Tongue

Three steps forward, two steps back.

Au@$1650 w/ [email protected] is as promising as my BTC@$10-$11.  Both adventures are on the trajectory which I have hoped for at this moment.  And neither is immune to steps in both directions.

Well if we didn't have this pirate thing dragging it down..

If you truly believe that, you should be buying like a freak. In three weeks Pirate threads will be as popular as Bitcoinica threads are now. Unless of course there is some radical new development.

NVM; i found it:

That gold just won't stop..  This could be the start of a big run..

It'll probably spill over to BTC.. Well if we didn't have this pirate thing dragging it down..

Probabily I'm a bit offtopic but I don't mind judging the general level of the late posts ;-) so: could someone explain me how to buy a put option for AAPL?

I find the apple capitalization is pure madness, and I suppose that now that iphones get so much competition from android apple will be unable to keep the fuzz to this height and some time after the iphone5 is out the stock value will begin to plunge.

I used to trade a bit on several stock exchanges but I know almost nothing about options and covered warrants: if someone wants to share a bit of knowledge I will be delighted Smiley

This is not really the place to get stock options advice.

Here is a Dec 2012 650 Put quote. Charles Schwab One Brokerage Account is great and the checking account's ATM card has no fees at all. Once you figure out what the hell you are doing then you can move over to Interactive Brokers.

PS. JMO, Don't short Apple .... you will get eaten. If you want some put selling strategies you may want to check out Fully Informed.

shorting Apple is nothing for unexperienced people, but still, if you do it right, it can be very rewarding. I gained 80$ per share in Spring 2012, then losing two times 5-8$ per share, and today I shorted again at 678 $.

So where are all the conspiracy theory threads about how Pirate shutting down was just a way to distract people from the bitcoinica mess?  Wink

I admit my bitcoin performed much better when i bough at 8.8 and sold at 15. But my gold holdings are doing quite well; not collapsing.
its not over.

Absolutely. The $3k level isn't far off, and that's just a stepping stone. Smiley

It see with mixed emotions all the metal people on youtube getting all excited patting themselves on the back for having called bottoms and breakouts and talking about insane rallys to come in gold and silver. They seem absolutely certain that "this is it" and it will rocket to unknown new highs within the year and well beyond next year. Are these people being a bit emotional and getting carried away?

I agree it's really too early to celebrate. And to be honnest early celebrations like that worry me.
What's interesting is that there's been for example Bill Murphy from gata quoting "insider" sources doing bold (crazy ? stupid ?) predictions, like 100% upside in 90 days.  (link). And from what I know he's not a "gold to the moon tomorrow" kind of analyst.
Time will tell I guess.

Yeah, well. That guy is being quoted and interviewed all over the place because his source got the August breakout right. I wonder how many guys had sources that predicted something else. Distributed Nostradamus Wink
