    Why is ET so slow for me?

    @Baron Any ideas why this is still happening? ET is almost unusable when I am logged in. Is this just a glitch with the server or some sort of ban over the Jigsaw fiasco?

    Why is ET so slow for me?

    It takes forever to load my followed threads page, and sometimes it just defaults to just showing recent threads, and not the ones I follow. When I log out, no problem. It's only when I'm logged in. Am I being punished??

    $TSLA

    Yup, Chanos said he believes Musk wants to be at Space X. Given how he thinks colonizing Mars is the most important trajectory for his life, I think its a slam dunk. Tesla probably cannot be profitable selling a 35k car, if it ever comes out, and there is so much competition now, and in the...

    The healthiest countries in the world

    Unhealthy is good. Profits from providing healthcare, surgeries, etc. will be a cash cow. And on the flip side, paying pensions and old age security will be minimal if you die early. :D

    $TSLA

    Doesn't the video that you posted from Chanos say exactly this? To everyone it sounds like he's crazy, but perhaps its all just a well orchestrated exit from Tesla. It wouldn't look good if he exits as a result of free will, but if he is pushed out, well, that is perhaps better for Tesla all...

    Australia Mortgage Defaults Storm

    This is the kicker. Many people wonder why these crashes haven't happened sooner, but immigration is really that one factor that I think messes with all the fundamentals. The immigrants are inflating the GDP in my opinion. Sure it looks like there is 2% growth, but when you consider how many...

    Trying to understand slippage: 1.6% with Interactive Brokers.

    Impressive. But let me ask you this if I may, and it is a serious question. If you stopped working and had to be a retail trader from home, could you do it? Lets assume that you have the same constraints as most other guys (ie. not co-located, maybe you're not able to get the micro second...

    Trying to understand slippage: 1.6% with Interactive Brokers.

    I'm always intrigued when I see a post from a member who hardly posts, yet has been registered for a very long time, and answers the question with facts and much more depth than anyone else. Makes me think that the best traders are the ones who do the least amount of talking. :) I think ET has...

    Is it time to throw in the towel?

    Thanks for the reply. After finding out this Mier guy by searching for him on YouTube via the title you gave, I'm not getting ads from him. Can you imagine? This guy is PAYING for ads to run on YouTube. Now tell me, does this sound like a guy who is making money from trading? Look at this...

    Is it time to throw in the towel?

    So you apparently have a mentor that you trade with every day (whatever that means), but you trade a strategy from some nobody on Youtube who is from the Tradenet Day Trading Academy? If your guy is making 600k per year, why are you following what some stranger on youtube is doing? How much is...

    Is it time to throw in the towel?

    What do you mean you trade with him live? Do you see his screen? Maybe you're chatting over voice? Chatting via texting? Does he tell you when he enters and exits? It seems to me like you are comparing yourself to him and using this are a barometer. But once this guy is exposed, your frame...

    Swing trading using options

    I think this question would be interesting if it was asked in a different way. If you're experienced enough and profitable, could you trade with a $2000 account and still be profitable? I realize the post started out with options, but futures have been mentioned so I will continue using...

    Being both long and short at same time

    Perhaps I didn't get my point across well enough. My example was of course the best case scenario. There is no way that for the long term hold you could get out precisely at an intermediate top and not go through the drawdown, and then get in at the exact intermediate bottom again to ride it...

    The Jobs Report Truth

    Enjoying this discussion guys. Now what can you guys say about inflation? It seems like in order to keep the number low at 2%, they keep changing the way they calculate it. In many parts of the country, especially for Stockolio in Vancouver, Canada, things like food and housing have gone up...
