Damn Iceman you must have some major coin on this AAPL long of yours cause it's driving you crazy. You are answering your own posts and giving out plus 1s and plus 10s to yourself. LOL Apple is experiencing this phenomena known as market saturation. Everyone who wants and can afford an Iphone...

Impossible...I call BS on you AustinP. Don't you use TA, goat entrails, and hoodoo to do what you do? LOL keep on just doing it my friend. Nice trading but I was wondering what possessed you to trade ZS alongside CL. Those two symbols are almost polar opposites. I'll see you over at your site.

A guy with 10+ years experience trading stocks with 5 figure share size believes in Fooled By Randomness? You've got to be kidding me. I like to think that most people are fooled by the idea of randomness. I'm gonna have to call B.S. on CTD and his trading resume. Everything from the problems...

I used to love reading Neke's journal because it was raw, honest, and lacked a lot of the BS that so many journals have on ET. Neke reminded me of myself early in my trading career...self-financed, working stiff with a very good life and career compared to more than 95% of the world's population...

Anyone with half a brain can discern that Neke's ' system' is based on reversion to whatever he determines to be the mean. Which is the reason he uses such terms as overbought and oversold (words that should not be in a short term trader's vocabulary). He makes good money when the range is wide...

Judging by your handle I can assume that you do not trade the ES and judging by your questions I can assume that you have NEVER traded the ES. 1.5 pt stop is based on fill price and by using buy stops to go long and sell stops to go short you will not be fighting momentum nor subjected to...

My target is ALWAYS 2R at minimum but I work behind price and lock in profits so that momentum can increase my profit potential without taking on additional risk. I have predetermined action zones to get in and get out of a trade before entry but prevailing price action dictates how trades are...

50 contracts is not a lot of contracts for RTH on the ES. My max position size is 50 contracts but I trade intraday and trade 5 linked accounts and seek to reduce risk via position reduction ASAP. As volatility contracts position size can be increased without incurring additional monetary risk...

This is exactly the type of results one should expect when luck is confused with skill. Anyone ever stop to think that all those losses would be profits if he only took the opposite side of those trades? The most amazing thing I find about the thread isn't Neke's misfortune(self-induced) but the...

Nice journal Puddles. I still wonder why you don't just trade the SPY, IWM, QQQQ, FAS, FAZ, or some other highly liquid etf. Nice trading but I bet that your win rate and profit factor would improve significantly.

Now we see how so many traders can have the same system and get totally different results. There is a big difference between a primary residence and investment property. I clearly stated that a primary residence is not an asset nor should it be viewed as such. I wouldn't even consider a primary...

The real problem with this thread is the failure to come to a basic understanding of the various terms being used and their contextual meaning. we have the terms...asset, liability, appreciation, depreciation, investment, and equity that all need to be addressed before we can even begin to reach...

The majority of people that have replied to Neke appear to be doing it from the goodness of their heart and it seems that they sincerely want to see Neke succeed. Neke has several issues to address; none of them too major individually but together they are an account killer. 1st...The market...

Hey Puddles wassup and how's trading? If I may offer a suggestion I'd advise you to give up the correlation trading and just trade the SPY, QQQQ, or IWM. There's plenty of movement in the indexes and since you put so much effort into following and analyzing the price action of the indexes you...

It appears that too many traders get caught up in the process of trading and quickly lose sight of the trading results. Anyone who tells you that trading is about anything other than the bottom line are merely trying to sell you the process. As we all know...there are many ways to skin a cat...
