    Too Many Traders Are Cry Babies...

    Actually, there are many trading gurus saying that trading is easy. All one needs is the secret knowledge they can sell to you. But if they are getting rich, why do they need to sell their knowledge? Stoicism... a worthy philosophy, esp. for traders, IMHO. But it is useful for anyone. Too bad...

    Trump Trade war is ruining American markets

    Some of these people are just so vulgar, emboldened by their anonymity. Hurling insults back and forth is such a waste of time. I just added another one to the ignore list. A great invention ET. :)

    Trading Technologies (TT) Outages

    It also looks like TT has some outdated equipment such as old hard drives in their servers. I have been using SSDs for years. Both need to get replaced periodically. I replace my equipment every few years. TT also seems to have problems with cancelled orders. I had problems with cancelled TT...

    From Reagan to Trump: Here's how stocks performed under each president

    Sig: There is more evidence if you care to investigate, but I doubt if you really interested. I did not thoroughly read your post but I don't trade my political opinions, like Marc Cuban or George. Anyway, you seem to be an indignant Troll. Thus, into my IGNORE dustbin. You have TommyMcGinnis...

    From Reagan to Trump: Here's how stocks performed under each president

    Correction: My 85% number for Fed donations to Hillary was incorrect. Actually 95% gave to Hillary, according to The Hill. Picture enlarged is poor quality. Also see here: https://www.opensecrets.org/orgs/summary.php?id=D000043326&cycle=2016 P.S. tommymcginnis: Just in case you are here...

    From Reagan to Trump: Here's how stocks performed under each president

    Yes, with the privately owned Federal Reserve at their backs. Paul Volker jacked the rate up to 21% after Reagan got into office. In the last election, 85% of Fed employees and officers donated to Hillary, according to Open Secrets, which they get from here. https://www.fec.gov/data/ And they...

    Trump Trade war is ruining American markets

    No, that is my assessment after seeing her other articles from my perspective. I have my views and you have your views. I did not call you a liar for having a different viewpoint. End of discussion tommcginnis. Life is too short.

    Trump Trade war is ruining American markets

    "Activist leftie" is very subjective and my definition might be different from yours. I scanned some of her college era articles to come to my conclusion. Of course, activist leftism is encouraged, even demanded, by many college professors these days.

    #1 risk management Options can move a big % change in a day. Watch your position size considering your Delta and account size, etc. I have nothing to gain by saying any more. Good luck.

    is scalping spy weekly option possible?

    It is interesting to see all of the people who have NOT traded this way, stating "it can't be done." It can be done. That is, if you are defining "scalping" as very short-term trading, not bid-ask capture.

    Proposed Financial transaction tax question (Futures)

    The trader tax was also included in the official 2016 Democratic Party election platform with Hillary Clinton. I call that a "plan," minus specific details. (see link below) https://democrats.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/2016_DNC_Platform.pdf (see page 9)...

    Trump just destroyed any hope of a trade deal. Bears, get ready.

    Now today's sell-off can be blamed on tariffs. That was one hell of an intraday reversal. A great day to trade.
