I’ve long been a fan of King of Queens and this hasalways been my favorite episode. In fact, I have it saved on my DVR for when I’m having one of those days. The plot of this particular episode is this:

Doug receives a Christmas bonus of $3,000 and Carrie wants to invest it in a new Internet stock. The stock immediately gains but loses the next few days and cuts their bonus worth in half. Throughout the episode, the stock goes up and down which changes the moods and hopes of Doug and Carrie.

Frankly, I think it is safe to say, that as traders we have all been in Doug and Carrie’s shoes at one time or another – just hopefully never again.

Below is part two and  three of the episode – I’ve provided links to the first part below (part one is somewhat irrelavent).
