    New York's brownstone mansion from the old world

    I admire your appreciation for history but the 6 mm price tag on a Carnegie Hill Brownstone reflects the work to be done. The good news is it is highly likely to be gorgeous when done and be worth a lot more.

    New York's brownstone mansion from the old world

    Beautiful building and workmanship but whoever can afford it can afford to gut it and redo and that's what will happen.

    That happened in 1949, things have changed somewhat.

    another hedge fund guy jumps to his death

    He wasn't a hedge fund manager, he was an investment banker. Sounds like he was wound too tightly and stress go to him. Depression need not be rational

    Is there any risk in using antiperspirants or deodorants?

    Magnesium is absorbed through the skin but yeah, I wouldn't use underarm application specifically for the ticker.

    Is it even worth the effort to learn how to trade?

    Yep, no barriers to entry but a few shekels. It takes a lot of work and persistence and while the size varies...dues WILL be paid, and that's whether you succeed or not.

    Is it even worth the effort to learn how to trade?

    Why do people want to fly jets, perform surgery, hit a 95mph fastball, surf big waves, master a musical instrument, learn foreign languages? Most don't and they can get a job selling cars or working for the man and if there is anything left after expenses, they can invest in an IRA. Trading is...

    Not sure if my opinion would matter as I have never automated other than an ATM on my DOM but I might be like someone who is afraid of flying being on an airplane. Intellectually knowing the high degree of safety but having a problem with not being in control. There are instinctual things which...

    I also set limits on the times I trade. I don't take a trade prior to 8:30 CST or after 2:45, not that there aren't good opportunities outside of that envelope but that number of hours work for me, and have for years. Some like to get up in the middle of the night to look for trades. I like to...

    That should be adequate for day trades but a little thin for overnight holds. It sounds like you could improve on your R/R to lessen your draw down experience.

    I would agree with you for a scalping methodology but I may average a trade-able signal every 40 minutes or so and even less frequently for the ES so it's hardly a manic pace. I also have no qualms about getting up and going for a run or other training session or out to lunch if I choose or...

    Superfood?

    A good option is using a Ninja or Vitamix type of blender to make smoothies. There are limitless tasty combinations of fruits and vegetables while maintaining fiber content.

    I am comfortable with modest gains and more modest losses. Some like to risk more for larger gains but that will result in higher draw downs. Again, a personal thing.

    Manual, I have not learned to code but will if necessary. I do like to trade, I see it similar to my martial practices...keeps me sharp and tuned.
