A MESSAGE TO LOPEZ:

se¤or lopez-

que pasa dude? many here are concerned. many have responded to your plea for help to anyone who would listen. this is not an easy or safe thing to do in this situation because no one knows for sure where the market will go in the short term. no one knows how long the market will continue to falter. you have received several open opinions of strategy to consider and i know of at least one private message of strategy that was sent to you. it takes courage to offer an investment opinion to a stranger in, what sounds like desperation, when so many uncertainties exist in the market. i think it is commendable that people have openly given you possible strategies and depending on your personal financial needs, any of them could be valid options for you (i did not read any response that i suspected was not genuinely offered with your interests in mind) yet we have not heard a peep from you. something doesn't sit right with that.

you wrote on tuesday:

Have tapped all cash available and have a margin call of 9000.00 for Monday and one to coming for Tuesday probably in excess of 20,000.00.

something doesn't sit right with this either. all the margin calls i have ever gotten and all the ones i have ever heard of are on a tighter time frame - like 3 days or less. do you have two separate accounts? and do they both give you 5 or 6 business days to meet a margin call?

because of your lack of response to anyone i'm beginning to suspect that your post was insincere and possibly a joke or prank. either that, or you're not very appreciative of concern and help extended. i like to be right as much as the next guy, but this time i hope i'm wrong.

que pasa?
