SBUX - Just bought 100 contracts June 30 Calls at $0.50

  1. William Rennick, I must say the Mcd coffe is not really that great, better than the dishwater they used to serve though.



    Most folks are not true coffee lovers, so the other chains are afraid to serve up something that has some balls to it.


    Still , I NEVER frequent RipBux as I don't appreciate paying for the servers nose rings.

  3. SBUX coffee is overpriced crap. The place stays in business because of yuppie-wannabes.

    As the job market slows down, SBUX will turn into Star-Sucks as very few individuals will willingly fork over $5.00 for a small cup of crap, especially if there is a Tim Hortons nearby.

    I wouldn't touch Star-Sucks till it hits the $20 area.

    Another over-hyped junky stock is CROX. But that's a whole another story.

    Hey Tums,

    About 4 years back, and constant losing during that time, I sent gamblers anonymous an email. I described my situation as a trader and asked them if this sent up any real red flags in their experience. They never bothered to get back to me... My mentor suggested maybe they were all at the track and not available to answer my email. heheheheh

    Peace and gtty,

    Lar

    The OP put big money up before even understanding the nature of the situation... first time and second time with no change in understanding between them. Forex-Forex: there is a basic formula regarding expectancey, namely- odds of winning * amount of win minus odds of losing * amount of loss. You were playing lottery ticket odds. Could have paid off big if you were to win... chances of winning were piss poor though. If you're going to do something like this again, consider only spending a buck or two on it ... for entertainment... like you might with a lottery ticket.
