    Like trying to nail Jello to the wall. But then there's a lot of that amongst the GOP.

    How nice. Now the Police are shooting 12 year olds with bb guns.

    There's been a lot of that going around.

    House of If You Can Draw A Straight Line

    There are many things one can see in real time or replay that one can't see in static charts, e.g., hesitation. However, in this case, all that one needs to know has been plotted in advance: the trend channel, the first aborted attempt to exit the trend channel, the sideways movement just before...

    House of If You Can Draw A Straight Line

    If by "potential support level" you mean 4277, that's up to the trader. If he'd rather wait to clear all that before entering, that's his choice. This isn't about taking trades but illustrating principles. There are many places to enter and exit depending on the bar interval used and on one's...

    House of If You Can Draw A Straight Line

    Back then, there was a literal close, and that close represented an agreement between buyers and sellers as to value, at least at that moment. Price may not have been "continuous" from day to day, but if one backs out of a daily or weekly view, he will see that price action looks much like a...

    Only 50% Of Scientists Blame Mankind for Climate Change In New Study

    And all of that has helped. Yet we continue to poison the water, the land, and the air. Would it be worse without our efforts? Probably. How much? Who knows? But what we've done isn't nearly enough.

    Actually this has been a "cause for concern" for a century. Given that we have done more or less zip in that time is reason for "accelerated" concern.

    Those who are in and out more than once a day are not necessarily scalpers. Nor are those who hold a trade for a day or more investors. As I said, investors and traders look at the market in different ways and want different things from it. What matters is not what one calls himself but being...

    The Cape, Not the Matador

    A Cautionary Note to the 1%: Workers at a tea plantation in eastern India have killed the owner during negotiations over a pay dispute. The owner of the Sonali tea estate in West Bengal was dragged out of talks on the payment of arrears. He died after being beaten up and stabbed by a crowd...

    My point was not that everyone is a trader but that there are differences between investors and traders. Your position was that everyone is an investor. If you want to consider someone who is in and out several times a day an investor, that's your privilege, but it alters the traditional meaning...

    House of If You Can Draw A Straight Line

    The short is shown in red, the first retracement after price has dropped below the opening range, though one could also short earlier depending on his risk tolerance. The lines are reference points. They are not critically important in and of themselves. If a line is broken, the trader...

    Though one could argue that anyone who ever sells, regardless of how long he held the position, is a "trader" (as opposed to those who buy and never sell), investors and traders have different goals and perceive the market differently. Investors aren't going to be in and out several times a day...

    Federalist Society Legal Scholars Begrudingly Accept Obama's Immigration Powers.

    This cartoon, which appeared on the Indianapolis Star website for a few hours today, has been generating a lot of outrage: One problem with the cartoon is the stereotypical portrayal of Hispanics. (The Star edited out the mustache from the guy in the red cap in attempt to eliminate the racist...

    Federalist Society Legal Scholars Begrudingly Accept Obama's Immigration Powers.

    Given that conservatives have worked for over thirty years to encourage division, the responsibility for our current divisiveness can hardly be laid at Obama's feet. As for dysfunctional, that appears to have been conservatives' chief goal over the past six years.

    Obama, like some treacherous Jacobean villain, has had the nerve to make decisions while the Congress was out on a well-earned vacation for six weeks from doing nothing for over six years. Robert Brustein

    Why climate deniers are reigniting their bogus cold-weather crusade It’s no longer enough to just be cold and miserable during the winter months. These days, we need to be cold and miserable and arguing about what all that cold and misery means. All weather, after all, now takes place in a...
