Oh yeah forgot about that.

Wouldn't be surprised at a market breakout this afternoon, led by tech.

Retail looks ready to drop through to multi year lows...sucks to id something good and not participate. I've been watching this one for a few days too before i posted it here. Thats the problem with being a small fry trader, I get in to a couple good positions and can't take the new ones that...

But so I'm not just being critical here is my answer to some of your questions posted across multiple threads. I don't trade with targets or stops. I enter a position based on a condition I believe gives me positive expectancy. I keep the position until that condition no longer exists. I use...

Yeah I saw that. Apparently he was trading for a living a few years ago according to a post on another forum, so he's a seasoned vet by now.

He shouldn't be trading at all yet, but obviously needs to learn the hard way. Jdesey seriously take a step back and do some research. All these questions you should be able to answer yourself before you make another trade. If you want it there are people here that are very generous with...

I'm a trader first, never gonna short something in an uptrend. Even if this signaled a short to me I wouldn't trade it, the counterparty risk is unacceptable. I've said it before if I want make a super risky bet I will do it on options or futures. At least I know I'll get paid if I win big.

I struggled with it for a long time too. For me it works best applied to large numbers of products, grouped in various ways. For me to even look at something now it has to get my attention via the 30 day view. I don't think a 30 day nl of a single product in isolation is very useful.

I could see the usg adopting the technology, but I think they would clone it so they could enrich the preferred insiders instead of the Bitcoin holder. Greed rules.

People automatically assume anyone criticizing bitcoin is jealous. Its kind of annoying when there are valid issues with the technology. This forum is actually better than bitcointalk. I don't post there but I have done some reading and it is very eye opening as to the type of person that is...

This is more referring to equities, but my approach I've settled on is using my ACD stuff to find what I want to trade, then I try to look at the product from the point of view of the various popular strategies big funds use(or at least I think they do based on my personal research); mean...

There are plenty of ways to measure volatility. What is wrong with plain old historical volatility? What is your intended use of a measure of volatility? That will determine the best way to measure it.

Yeah I was only half joking. But the crude trading leading up to the Syria strike in April is the most blatant defense insider trading I've ever seen. I wish they would follow the money there.

I really want to take profit on GOLD and get short a retail stock or two, but to be honest my account is maxed out in winning positions right now. Every time I close trades in that situation to take on new ones, I end up regretting it. If you guys are looking for trade ideas today, I would...

One week since the updates...you ok?

https://www.wsj.com/articles/north-korea-backs-off-guam-missile-attack-threat-1502751054 Maybe Kim Jong is daytrading, and making these announcements to move the markets. :)

I've been reading up on segwit. Am I wrong in my understanding that it is basically copying litecoin? If so, why not just use litecoin?

I'm no expert, but if you don't intend to model and trade volatility, stick with the outright. If you just want to trade direction (Delta), stick with outright.

Yup and IMO the chance of nuclear war is no different from what it was during the drop last week. The rational investor is a theoretical creature that does not exist. I had semiconductors ID'd as the strongest sector last week, at least of the volatile sectors that I track. I should have...

What coin Bitcoin do that dogecoin can't?
