    Legal Largesse and Mark to Market

    some dormant bids/asks on an otc market don't indicate all that much if the stuff is not being traded and the market makers [stocks i'm talking about here, not sure about other instruments] can trade through your price and keep on going like you did not exist if they want to. It's possible to...

    Zen, Yoga, Meditation and Trading

    I hate meditating basically... if i sit in the lotus posture my knees stiffen up really bad too... to reduce tension just tense and relax every muscle in the body, start with your toes and work up, you'll be asleep in no time... there is a feedback from the tense muscles that causes thoughts and...

    common thinking errors

    I am sure that when an "amateur" takes away money from the markets consistently that he would be considered a pro! :D Therefore it is logical to say that amateurs can't take money away from pros!!

    Does Economics Matter?

    Let's talk about degrees of "macroness" and "microness". Let's say there is an obvious trend looking at annual bar interval charts... does that affect trading intraday?? [it's rhetorical, the answer is no]... how about an obvious trend on daily bars, does that affect intraday.. I'd say not...

    "The little red ship" is no more...

    Ya' takes yer chances with such sailing capn's as takes just anybody on board.... I was on a whale watching cruise off San Pedro once, the guy took a boat with about 100 ppl on board into some ROUGH waters, the dang thing was rolling 30-35 degrees by my eyeball measurements for quite a while...

    Consumer spending

    I would seriously watch that if I knew what it was. Lots of boomers are going to be retiring with nothing, many might rack up lots of unsecured debt and then have no income and default, especially if they find out how uncollectable that debt is... Cash flow analysis seems to be the thing that...

    What do you think of Amazon's "Kindle"

    Currently, best sellers are nearly all available and a few thousand more titles. I suppose that lots of books are in electronic format somewhere already? Maybe they have to scan books onto their servers or something but that doesn't seem like a large enough obstacle to stop a well funded and...

    Prison system a costly, harmful failure:

    There was a bit of a race war going on, the Jena 6 made the mistake of taking it personal and really beating the krap out of somebody, never a good move. Politicians like Hillary are telling black US citizens that resent, protest, violence, lawlessness, etc. is going to get them something...

    What do you think of Amazon's "Kindle"

    I like it, just from reading about it. No hookup costs, wireless anywhere, holds 200 books, easy on the eyes, good battery life... Unless some reviews come out that are really negative I've gotta have one... and I'm not gadget happy at all...
