Agree 100% with the prosecution by social media representing a modern version of mob rule. But let's also be realistic, this is an awfully convenient way to exhibit some latent sexism without admitting perhaps even to oneself that they are sexist. I mean seriously, the absurd examples posited...

Let's not insult your intelligence that you didn't understand it was a juvinile dick joke and that it wasn't intended as exactly that. Again if you think that's appropriate for a professional in a workplace, well you're the guy I've got no sympathy for when you get hit with a sexual harassment...

So because it's possible that a woman could falsely claim sexual harassment or in your example rape it should be fine and we shouldn't try to stop it? To be clear that's what you are all asserting and I find that logic appalling. I don't know how much clearer I can be in saying that false...

Thanks for making my point for me. If you think Rudy Pantoja's example of a juvinile dick joke is the behavior a professional shows in the workplace then I guess you're right to be throwing the pity party we see on this thead because that world is gone and we're all better because of it. The guy...

What statistic or assertion is false, specifically? Happy to provide backup for any of them. And while it is just past noon here I haven't had anything to drink for a couple of weeks actually, thanks for your concern though. Just out of curiosity, what about my post made you suspect I was drunk...

Please provide an example, a single example, of a man who was accused of sexual harassment for shaking a woman's hand, or looking at them and smiling, or any of the other hyperbole I'm reading here! This is exactly what I'm talking about with going full on sniveling coward over something that...

It means there isn't a nice slick user interface like the bucket shops provide and there are all kinds of choices you have to make and contract specs you have to understand, unlike the bucket shops which provide a nice convenient slot machine which requires not much more thought than pulling a...

I get where the "victimized man" thing comes from, I was falsely accused of sexual harassment early in my career so I have some first hand experience, although in my experience if you're a stand-up guy it's pretty certain even in government that you'll be quickly cleared and your accuser...

You're saying something fundamentally quite different from @formikatrading. Does the current price of a forex pair reflect the current market consensus of all factors that would influence that pair? Absolutely, we're in violent agreement on that point! On the other hand, @formikatrading states...

Alrighty, clearly working on the level of goat enrtail interpretation then!

How in the world do you chartists justify the belief that a forex chart is going to determine what the government of the UK will do regarding Brexit (or any other major event)? I don't think May is checking out the Forex chart and saying "look, here's a teacup and kettle being smashed over a...

Thoughtful intelligent folks from both parties will calmly be saying "See, you already provided stimulus in the form of tax cuts at a point where unemployment was at historic lows and the economy at historic highs so stimulus was least needed. That ballooned the deficit, so now it is much harder...

The dream is getting some percentage of the upside on a big pie and the only downside is you go back to a salaried job like most. A much better gig that trading your own money if you can get it, but I don't feel too sorry for the folks who successfully milked that system for 15+ years with an...

You lost your first bet. You're making an second statistically speaking independent bet. One would be fooling oneself if they are in denial of this and act as if they're somehow just "extending" their original bet by calling it a "roll". I've mentioned this before when it comes to the subject...

So called "rolling" a position with options is simply reopening the same position when the option expires and you've lost the premium on the original option, in this case it's done when the price moves against. Calling it "rolling" sounds so much better than "I put $1 down on tails and lost the...

That's OK, I was a jerk to Robert at least once and I'm not sure I ever even apologized (Sorry Robert!)

I'm guessing it's like SSFs, people mainly set up trades bilaterally and use the exchange mainly for clearing and that prints a price. I'm guessing you could leave a way out of market bid up on most SSFs for hours without it being hit because not even any bots are ever looking at them, just as...

It may not be the case here but...It is reasonable to think that in a very thinly traded market you could put inflated bids in for a 15 minute period and have them not hit because there's no market makers and no-one is looking at the market at that point in time, or you could easily clear out...

That sounds suspicious like a martingale strategy.

Where would one find this "data"?
