    Lower Lows are new lows for the day, or just from the previous candle? Higher Highs too? Higher Lows means the bottom of the candle, and Lower Highs are the tops? I'm pretty sure I know what's what, just not if the new highs and lows are for the day or just from the previous candles. I had...

    I'm wasting my time?

    I mostly agree here. However, talent and hard work are where you start, not attitude. The difference between someone batting against The Big Unit in the big leagues, and someone batting in Single A ball is attitude (along with consistency). The difference between someone playing pro or semi-pro...

    Report: Markets 'Are Like 1987 Crash'

    Maybe a dozen from 2000 to 2003? I didn't count, just speculating. Probably several dozen of 5 days since 1987.

    Whoa! SarahG was throwing some low blows there. No retort Lewcifer? Why not? Are you the big flaming queer she claims you are? (I hope SarahG isn't really a man, that would make her post a bit hypocritical) As far as Education level and the relation to market success or failure goes, the...
