    Even though the project will invest in advertising and technology, but these investments will bolster Ameritrade’s position in the deep-discount brokerage market and from this market the company will generate all its revenues.

Other firms in similar business with are Charles Schwab, E*Trade, Quick & Reilly and Waterhouse Investors.

    An investor can allocate money between a risk-free security that has zero risk (β=0), and the market portfolio that has market risk (β=1). If 75% of the portfolio is invested in the market, then the portfolio will have a β=0.75. If only 25% is invested in the market, then the portfolio will have a market risk of β=0.25. The first example (β=0.75) might be taken by a less risk averse investor while the second example (β=0.25) illustrates the portfolio of a more risk averse investor. By allocating the investment money between 0 and 100% into the market portfolio, an investor can achieve any level of market risk desired.…

    1) This was a 2nd entry short coming off a larger double top soon after the regular market open this morning. Notice that you could have taken the first entry off the DT, but because it was so close to the open, it was probably better to wait a few minutes and not get trapped on the wrong side of the early morning move that usually happens right after the 8:30 AM CST opening. If you took the first entry which was one tick below the arrow, then it was a good trade all the same and it was not wrong to go short there. By waiting on the 2nd entry we got a 2nd entry short off a double top with a lower higher indicating that buyers were getting weaker and sellers were getting stronger. This was an easy short and any runners were safe as well and worth as many as 7 points depending on where you exited.…
