    For those members only stick with a few STOCKS, do you take part in the stock futures or options of those companies as well? If u guys only trading stock exclusively, do u SHORT/PUT?

    I trade the underlying as well as the options on WMT. The underlying is easier to trade, but the options give you the jaw dropping returns.

  3. Speaking of MVL - Marvel Enterprises Inc, it reminded me of MRVL - Marvell Technology Group Ltd

    It is a extremely high-beta trading stock

  5. Volente: Noob question...

    What criteria do you use to choose a single stock to trade: beta? average daily range? If so, there are many stocks with greater beta and ADR numbers, so why did you choose WMT?

    Also, how often do you re-evaluate your choice to see if it still conforms to your criteria: weekly? monthly?

    Thanks, TD
