For all you trader millionaires why are you on APC? You should all go to elitetrader.com, the APC of trading not investing.

I love bogleheads.org for investing.

Any other good investing forums out there?

I intend to sit on my hands and read more Baron's and free advice here.

Its been mentioned before,, but look into Motley Fool for brokeragelink investing. The picks they’ve recommended have been stellar. I have been fully invested for the past few months and haven’t acted on any recent recommendations but the subscription is very inexpensive, compared to the returns I’ve seen over the past 18 months.

What has your return percentage been over the last 18 months?

Yeah, you said nevermind, and I have read zero of this book (yet), but Understanding Options by Michael Sincere has been recommended to me.

I feel like an utter idiot reading this thread. Thanks for the education folks! I, too, am trying to up my game.

I read and read and read. I watched YouTube videos, signed up for “educational seminars” (hint they’re sales pitches) and I just couldn’t get it. So I just started watching tastytrade and following their trades; particularly their “Johnny trades” (small accounts and small trades). It’s the only way I learned this stuff. The rest is history. You may be the type that can read and understand, but it didn’t work for me. I tried for years to get myself up to speed with books. Sometimes you got to just do it. Liz and Jenny also do very small and manageable trades daily. Their segment is a little fast talking but they do good beginner type trades usually.

I found the motley fool forums even more educational than the articles and research themselves. I enjoy the motley fool podcasts too; my favorites are Rule Breakers (David Gardner), Motley Fool Money and Market Foolery.

Is there more than 1 subscription available at MF? Or is it the Discovery Everlasting Stocks you recommend?

Like craps or blackjack: sit yourself at the minimum bet table, make small wagers, see how you win or lose, and tip your waitress. If it's not for you, then walk away.
