    Serena Williams accuses umpire of sexism in US Open loss

    She was penalized a "game"... likely wouldn't have made any difference as it was going to be Osaka's serve... which she likely would have held. Even after the "game penalty", Serena continued to bitch at the umpire. I would have like to see her penalized the next level... to DEFAULT! Would...

    Intraday martingale with futures

    Rule #1 in trading.... PROTECT CAPITAL! Rule #2... "See Rule #1". Martingale is the antithesis of Rule #1. It has always been my philosophy... "If the market takes take my money, it's going to be like being 'nibbled to death by ducks'".

    Serena Williams accuses umpire of sexism in US Open loss

    She was being a pissy little snot. Should have dropped it after the warning and just played. Then again, we've all gone off the deep end a bit from time to time. Maybe she was just on the rag? (Was that sexist or something?)

    CITGO to be seized by the feds on foreclosure-like deal.

    Just as planned... should be a "socialist lesson" for all... that is, "everything inures to the benefit of the government/elites while everybody else waits in line for toilet paper."

    Are futures traders at risk of bailing out exchanges if huge margin losses happen?

    Don't know about crypto, but the futures exchanges are not "on the hook" for large losses. The exchanges facilitate trades between customers. Some of us might find ourselves on the hook for some portion of huge, sudden losses*... but that's why FCMs have a capital account... to accommodate...

    Botched Cook County Property Tax Relief Backfires On Working Class, Minorities

    Kind of a "catch 22", isn't it? If there is nobody left for the freeloaders to freeload off of, how can they be "freeloaders"?

    Botched Cook County Property Tax Relief Backfires On Working Class, Minorities

    $86,000 tax on a $511,000 property? How's that for theft by government....

    Have we now topped . . .

    I'm sure many of us are thinking of a "crash" as a "one-two day event, followed by immediate recovery". May not be that at all. May be a crash to start the big, lasting decline. Nothing like a big spike to trap traders on the wrong side.

    Master one single technique?

    There is only one "technique" you need to master... STOP DISCIPLINE! As to "what trades to take?"....look for "behavioral correlations via technical analysis". There are LOTS of correlations... some more highly correlated than others. Study the charts and remember the famous words of Yogi...
