Perfectly explained. Calling Israel "imperialistic" is a joke. For those who do not understand how things evolved in the West Bank, Gaza, the Golan....for those that think they understand the concept of "right of return". For those who cannot even define what the "Green Line" is (without...

Gee, Mav.....FLORIDA? Do you know about our "intangible tax"? A tax on the very richest? How un-Republican can you get? Peace, :)RS

Sounds impressive. Must be something to do with the level of education and maybe entrepreneurial spirtit behind the legitimate press and media (except you said "liberals hate rich people"). Maverick, one day we should talk. I would love to understand what makes you tick:) You are ok in my...

Hope this helps. I wrote it a long time ago. But nothing changes. Maybe you could start by reading the thread from the beginning. I don't think it could hurt. (If I recall correctly, the thread eventually degenerated, as they all seem to). But I did put in quite a bit of effort. Maybe the...

A: I am trading it myself B: I don't have enough cash to effectively trade "big size". And besides, how do you define "big size"? I think if I traded more than $1-2mm, I would become too obvious, and it would negate my "system". And while $1mm is not a huge amount of money for a lot of ET...

You want the truth? All I know about it is what I heard here from you. I couldn't care less about this "issue". Because to me, it isn't an issue at all. I had not read about it. I didn't care about it. I couldn't have found the show on the radio if I didn't scan every station and get...

Maybe it's only the right wingers that need to be told how and what to think:) More progressive minds can function without any help. Form their own opinions, make decisions, etc. And this can leave time to enjoy music in thier cars rather than listening to angry rants. (Just a...

If I had the patience to sit on my hands all the times I really knew I should have.... OTOH, if I could go back in time and eliminate all my losing days.....:):):) Hell, just give me back my worst 3 or 4.... Peace, :)RS

Hey Cash, you are right, it is turning into a guessing game. I never should have responded in any way as to the nature of the "flaw" I believe I can exploit. But it's too late now, so guess away. Really, I just will not say anything further regarding the nature of my "experiment" (unless it...

Houdini politics:) It is brilliant! :)RS

Yes, it was very reassuring to hear our President tell us that he isn't very good at thinking on his feet. We certainly have to be impressed with his comments that he is not very good at answering questons that were not submitted in advance. AAA said he does not think a press conference is a...

LOL...I will try Axe. In "Statement 1" I meant to address the little private super secret systems that the blowhards say they won't share. I don't believe in them at all, so I guess I just by default think that you cannot "dilute" something that doesn't exist. I am talking about the (to me)...

Axe, the line you quoted was really in reference to the kinds of "systems" that we hear boasted about here on ET by the "5% a day" guys. Obviously I don't take any of them seriously, so I can say anything about them and pretty much be safe from being wrong. As far as your comment that I have...

finally the voice of reason! Peace, :)RS

Using the screen name RS7, I publicly laughed on ET too many times to think about every time someone said they would not share their "secrets" for the same reason you state. I agree that there is no way a trading method can be so diluted by sharing it with any number of traders to have any...

No, I am sorry if I confused the issues for you. The zero cap was in reference to market maker's haircut on riskless transactions. This requires regular customer margin. Actually quite a lot. And to avoid another possible misunderstanding, let's just use a hypothetical example of why a lot...

Yes, I agree with your entire premise. I was only trying to demonstrate that the words themselves were too simplistic. But I admit to being struck by the same comment that you were in whatever post we both saw it in. Credit to whoever wrote it. And it is a powerful argument for the...

No, no "pyramiding system". And nothing so sophisticated as to remove risk from probability. I am not that clever. All my trading success is just the result of listening to more experience traders and doing it for a long time. Believe me, I am the quintessential "journeyman" trader. I have...

Darkhorse, my old friend...always a pleasure to see you post. And as always, your questions and observations are well thought out. Let me clarify. I hope we are on the same wavelength here. When a strategy works for a while and then after a while stops working, as you so accurately put it...

I have said these same words here on ET almost verbatim. I laughed at the guys that said they could make 5% per day for exactly this reason. They would end up with all the money in the world. I have no such delusions. Perhaps the most significant aspect of what I believe I have come upon...
