tradeTX, thanks fro sharing your experience. Another pro-bull argument. The agr basket, as a whole has not moved much from the 2000... Flat... At the same time energy costs, metals have gone up, dollar has gone down. Everywhere you look products cost more, yet agr raw materials don't...

Hm, but what if current round of deleveraging has anticipated the future round? I am not smart for this, but the funds might have learned their lessons and now may be doing better due diligence. They may get an idea from what assets future blows may come. Why not get rid of these assets now?

RJA - ELEMENTS Linked to the Rogers International Commodity Index - Agriculture Total Return http://www.elementsetn.com/pdfs/ELEMENTS-RJA.pdf

I was exploring asset class for next bubble. Read Jim Rogers outlook on agr. Then looked at the charts. While some crops had recent run ups (and now dropped), all of the crops are relatively unchanged in value for the last 20-30 years. Some have tripled from their recent lows (and then...

"The treasury is/has been issuing bonds for every dollar they hand over to the FRB. " But by issuing new debit obligations are not they diluting existing money pool? For new bonds issued, how much real tangible wealth is expected to be created in US? Can you elaborate on the above as well...

Well, I was not trying to guess the bottom. I wondered how RE would do relative to commodities in the next 10 years. If scenario develops according to Jim Rogers - we will see inflation and commodities boom in next 10 years. Say we use current time as departing point (US RE has corrected a...

I was going to start another thread, but you beat me to it.... Jim Rogers is long commodities basically for another 10 years. He bets on rate cuts short term, but long term high interest rates http://jimrogers-investments.blogspot.com/ If scenario develops that way, I wonder how real...

Try Pitrading.com, they have 1 min data package, seems to be fairly accurate from what I have seen. The rest of the data providers would charge you 50-100$ per year per symbol on average.

Jerry, you have to chill a bit regarding Moscow/Pravda/SovietUnion etc. and remove RedHats geographical location out of your argument. Here are some facts regarding Moscow where RedHat is from: There is a lot of money in Moscow (due to oil and gas). Many western investment banks, IT companies...

US has busy opening/close and lighter midday action. Eurex (DAX/ESTX) has somewhat busy opening and MUCH higher volume during main EU closings/overlap with US open. Rest of the session is anemic in terms of volume and follows US in terms of direction. All good and well? But why EUREX...

Is there any way to invest in law firms/law frims indexes?.. Seems to be a good sector:)

So basically, wait until opening-VA is formed by opening range and then trade that VA? Interesting, you used words "initiate" long/shorts below/above POC. But really those are responsive trades. You expect buyers to be in control, yet, you trade this as a range/expect reversion to the mean...

If someone wants to comment on scenario in initial post, feel free to do so at your leisure. Meanwhile, I though it would be good to discuss trading off IB (initial balance) w/ range extensions. If markets opens above VA and keeps driving up, you can rely only on long term MP (resistance...

Let me think about the reasons behind that. "a little careful" - so to buy is still a good idea, but less odds are in your favor "tall & narrow" profile - basically a trend day with a steady march in one direction. The value (support in our case) is spread out too thin and too long, which...

Thank you for your description of underlying dynamics. I have read both of Daltons books - they seem to illustrate the same concepts over and over at different angles which I found to be very helpful. What I get from your answer, is that when price opens above VA and drives down to UVA then...

I am new to MP. There appears to be a contradiction which I would like to talk about. I think it could bring up interesting discussion. Here are 2 standard MP axioms: 1) If price opens above previous days VA, and drives down to previous days VA, one should buy at UVA and then at POC...

having a structure is good, but not all?... If 2 or more people trade on the same timeframe and enter at the same time with agreement on the entry signal, their success will depend on the ability to determine when the trade is "wrong" or "right"....how to tell right from wrong?

Suppose market has ATR of 100 pts. During the day price traverses 300 pts based on tick or 1 min data. You come up with a "wiggle" number of 3 points - thats how much price is likely to wiggle. Intuitively, this number seems to be useful for setting stops. The number will change depending on...

some facts: - their Montain View offices had 4 people per small room (ok, they grew -good excuse, still not super sanitary).... - everyone IS working hard - there are talented people there... and in many other places where they have come from and will go to after being done with google -...
