Attention whore gets squeezed. News at 11.

Using stops is for idiots. Its liken to playing poker with your buddies and showing your cards while you play. Just how can you bluff when you are showing your cards. Why do you need stops if you are sitting at your terminal and know in your mind what level to get out at if it hits? Its up...

Just create a private blog using Wordpress on your local machine.

Don't be too smug. You are basing this on the recent market volatility the past few years. Just because the market has been roaring upwards in low volatile fashion doesn't mean you can be too bold in your hypothesis. I'd like to see you trade without a stop in volatile markets.

95% of retail traders lose because they don't treat this as a business. No business plan, no discipline. They wake up in their pajamas and click like a crack head. They don't realize that after losing the first 20% of their stake, they are all but done. Instead, they press bets, and blow up.

Totally disagree with ops premise. T/A is of one tool in your trading arsenal. If you want to buy an equity instrument and use no prior price action, then go ahead. That is like committing suicide. The best way to see the benefits of T/A is to see what others see. Most of time, its seeing...

Its just voo doo blind faith isn't it. Its like a palm reader looking at your hand telling you what the lines...

Why would I want to join a bunch of geezers trying to front run their stock picks based on some voodoo XYZ Crossover with a DooDad Moon Tide Hyperextension? You have to be a complete idiot to pay to join a stock club on the Internet to get "group solicited" picks. Just look at the pictures...

Generational cycles indeed. Especially when the baby boomers start passing away and transfer goes to the children who don't know how to save and spend like no end.

Really, most don't give a shit any more. They are looking more for capital preservation than taking on bets in a market that is full of bullshit. The wall street game is slowly losing interest. I sense that with the people I talk to most between the ages of 30-50yo. The younger crowd doesn't...
