But you have to understand that there are a lot of people who, when they read/hear something and become confused, think that they're reading/hearing something profound. So, they think that something can be learned from that "communicator." Some innocently "communicate" that way; others...

Bulls buy anything. Don't follow the herd.

Does the DOM convey any useful information? Recently I have watched the ES DOM, and where the index found support/resistance there weren't many ES buyers/sellers. Often you can see 2X or 3X imbalance in the DOM, yet the index price slices right through. The index moves ES; ES doesn't move the...

Once GS does their offering, they will take the market down. Until then, party like it's '99. But watch out for earnings surprises. GS doesn't always get it right.

Quote from dkm: As has been stated before, the principles described in this journal apply to any market in any time frame providing that sufficient liquidity exists. The gaussian behaviour on SPY will be no different. Are you tellling me that SPY and ES always have the same volume? I...

Is this another ponzi? They say that Madoff's clients should have known that something was wrong, just from the returns Madoff was offering. Here we have a guy that thinks he can do better than Madoff? Get people to think you're great, then get offers to trade their money? Isn't that how it...

SPY offers greater liquidity than ES. They both follow the index. Has anyone ever considered the "gaussians" on the SPY? Why and how can they be different?

SPY follows SPX around just like ES does. If SCT is viable, you ought to be able to succeed trading 100 shares of SPY. You'll only be exposed to 1/5 the risk. They say that Madoff's clients should have known that something was wrong, just from the returns he was claiming. SCT is "offering"...

Most data providers consider the information to be proprietary, which means that you would need an agreement to resell the data. Your data supplier, in turn, probably has an agreement with the exchange, so you could be looking at coming to an agreement with several parties. From your...

I suppose that you "invented electricity," too?

Good spellers have good memories. As traders they can remember where support and resistance are.

Don't watch the charts to trade. They update only every 5 seconds. Was a guy here who agitated for accurate bars, so IB made a change to have its charts update every 5 seconds. The guy wanting that change is gone now -- so much for making money by watching accurate bars.

That is why plenty of capital is necessary and more than one account or an arrangement with your broker to be long/short at the same time.

Buy when the price is going up. Sell when the price is going down. Be patient. Almost any trade will eventually make money.

Taiwan? I've heard that is a province of China. What will happen to your $$$ when the mainland restores its rights and retakes the island?

a somber funeral?

Get yourself a good pair of sturdy shoes. They will make the bread/soup lines and hopping freights easier to bear.

S&P 500 bottomed out in the high 700s in the nasdaq/dotcom/9-11 decline. The reasons for this decline are more serious, so I will not be surprised to see it go lower. If you look at a long term chart of the S&P, you'll see that it could go into the 500-700 range and still be in a long term...

I imagine that the money you bring to a firm overrides any educational considerations.

I'm looking for indictments. Some time back, the SCT traders were grousing about tapping pools of capital, opening Jokers' windows, inserting straws and sucking the pools dry. Much talk of SCT the coming thing, with practioners worldwide. Could it be that they are responsible for the market's...
