Описание: With so much emphasis on calls (especially covered calls) many traders overlook the tremendous hedging and profit potential of the put. The Amazing Put demonstrates the many strategies based on the put option, including the risk hedge, a long put (often a long-term, or LEAPS put) that freezes market risk at the put’s strike (minus its premium); and the short uncovered put, which has market risk identical to the covered call. The author methodically lays out the case for using puts wisely, both as a cash generator with low risk, and as a risk hedge to reduce or eliminate market risk in equity positions. Every options trader will benefit from exploring these strategies, and novices will gain a starting point in developing a program to enhance their stock portfolio. Michael C. Thomsett is a market expert, author, speaker, and coach. His many books include Stock Market Math , Candlestick Charting , and Options, Tenth Edition.
Описание: Maurice Baring OBE was born on 27th April 1874 in Mayfair, London. He was the fifth son of eight children to Edward Charles Baring, first Baron Revelstoke, of the Baring banking family, and his wife Louisa Emily Charlotte Bulteel.
After the obligatory years at Eton College he went to Trinity College, Cambridge.
His early career in the diplomatic service was cut short but it gave him a thirst for travel and he did so widely, particularly in Russia. During the Russo-Japanese war of 1904/5 he reported as an eye-witness for the London Morning Post.
In 1909 Baring, who thought of himself as agnostic, converted to Roman Catholicism. A decision which he stated was "the only action in my life which I am quite certain I have never regretted."
When the horror of World War I enveloped Europe in 1914 he enlisted with the Royal Flying Corps, and served as an assistant to David Henderson and Hugh Trenchard (the two responsible for establishing the RFC) on the Western Front in France.
In 1918, Baring served as a staff officer in the Royal Air Force and was appointed Officer of the Order of the British Empire in the 1918 Birthday Honours List.
With the end of the war came his development as a writer. Before the war his works had mainly centrered on journalism, short stories and poetry. Now Baring began to write novels.
In 1925 he gained an honorary commission as a wing commander in the Reserve of Air Force Officers. After his death, Trenchard was to write, "He was the most unselfish man I have ever met or am likely to meet. The Flying Corps owed to this man much more than they know or think."
The last decades of his life proved to be a descent into chronic health problems. For the final 15 years of his life he was debilitated by the increasing onset of Parkinson's Disease.
He was widely known socially, and especially frequented with some of the Cambridge Apostles (an intellectual society at the University founded in 1820), The Coterie (a fashionable group of aristocrats and intellectuals of the 1910s). Baring was staunch in his anti-intellectualism with respect to the arts, and often displayed a lighter side with his pranks on others.
"By all accounts, the real Baring was a charming, affable gentleman who knew how to laugh and had no fear of making a fool of himself."
Maurice Baring, dramatist, poet, novelist, translator, essayist, travel writer and war correspondent, died at Beaufort Castle on 14th December 1945 at the age of 71.
Описание: "The Sabbath doesn't apply to me. That Old Testament stuff isn't relevant anymore." If you've ever said that, you could not be more wrong. The first Sabbath occurred before there was Jew or gentile; after six days of creation God rested. And don't forget that Jesus said, "The Sabbath was made for man" (Mark 2:27). Not, "The Sabbath was made for the Jew." But even if you do believe the fourth commandment applies to you, how do you apply it to your life? It's hard to stop and rest for an hour let alone an entire day. Besides that, busyness is a badge-if you're not busy, you're not trying. Sure, you might make it to church every Sunday, but while there all you can think about is the to do list you need to work on. Andrew Gilmore was in the same boat: distracted at church, stressed out by his to do list, and unsure if the fourth commandment even applied to him. But a few years ago, he read the Bible cover to cover for the first time. As he made his way through the Old Testament he was struck by how many times the scriptures mention the Sabbath. In fact, the word "Sabbath" appears ninety-six times in the Old Testament, 154 times overall. He began asking, "How could something so prevalent not be relevant to my walk with Christ?" He concluded that, at the very lest, the Sabbath reveals something about the character of God and how He wants His people to live. So Andrew set out on a mission to uncover the meaning behind the fourth commandment. How does it apply to the Christian? How should one behave on the Sabbath? What does it mean to "work"? The deeper he dug, the more he realized just how important the Sabbath is. He compiled all of his findings over the course of two years to bring you Do No Work: Beat Burnout, Find Inner Peace, and Strengthen Your Faith by Studying the Most Overlooked of the Ten Commandments. In Do No Work Andrew gives a thorough examination of the Sabbath commandment: it's origin, its application to Christians, and its ability to transcend the material world. This short book is crammed full of information, inspiring anecdotes, and even some theology. You'll learn: - The 2 steps required to beat burnout - 3 ways to get better rest - The real reason you don't have peace - The most common Sabbath myth - What the Sabbath and heaven have in common - How to skyrocket your faith to levels you've never had before And more Read the book Dan Miller (of 48 Days to the Work You Love and Wisdom Meets Passion) mentioned on his weekly podcast saying, "I love the concept." And, "It's really well done." And find out what it means to honor God on the Sabbath.
