    Not the issues, and you probably don't have more that I.... which is also not the issue. You apparently bristle when advised that your "view on something" is wrong. Personally, I CRAVE being told I'm wrong... should that info turn out to be correct... so that I might learn something valuable.

    I am not a liar. You are a fool for presuming so... if you care to, you can look it up in the archives of IBD and Barrons. I'm stating fact. A matter of public record. I never called the "whole markets idiots".... just YOU for talking "big hat, no cattle". Please, don't take offense...

    My contest results are a matter of public record, if you care to check....You know, IBD and Barrons? I don't want anything from anybody, including praise. You sir, apparently need a head check. Call me all the names you want. You've apparently got nothing. I've got plenty.

    Whoa, buckeroo. I'm not "belitting the whole market". Just calling you out for you pompous assertions of "I've got 30 years experience... therefore, I know what I'm doing, so listen to my words". You just bit off more than you can chew.... poking a stick at "the big dog". I had 5-years of of...

    No. Scapling is stupid. Too much noise, poor risk-reward endeavor, + costs. You claim to have "30-years experience"... but your words say, "they weren't good years".... that is you haven't learned what you should have by now. (That's not a knock. You "don't know until you know".... the time...

    Bitcoin's wild ride

    Crypto Currencies... the "Dutch Tulip Bubble" of our time. A triumph of "hope over reason and substance", at least so far.

    Lots of examples of, "can't see the forest for the trees".

    What percentage of market players earn enough to make scalping worthwhile? The concept is sooooooo stupid* as to even make a blip on the landscape. I'll bet the notion of "successful scalper" is more of the unicorn. *HFT front-runners, excluded

    No offense, pal... but instead of having "30 years experience", you seem to have "1 years experience, 30 times".... not to fret, lots of traders are in the same boat. You say you have 30 years experience... I don't hear that behind your words.)

    There you go again... with your "hairs". That was a joke, right? Actually, stupid as scalping is... scalpers SHOULD pay attention to the 50/200... for the same reason the rest of us should also.

    Fed Lie Of The Day: "Low Inflation Is One Of The Major Challenges Of Our Time"

    That Powell... what an ASSHAT! The Fed uses "every trick in the books" to make inflation appear to be less than it is. And then they have the gall to say, "Americans are better off when their money buys less and less". Surely he can't be stupid enough to believe all of us will buy that load...

    Interested in learning how to trade using technical analysis.

    If not sarcasm, you're cutting yourself short. Almost everybody follows the 50 and 200 day MAs... as they should. They are often important action points. (And if everybody watches the 50/200, so should you.) At times a different MA will prove to be significant if you bother to look for it...

    Never said they are. Sometimes the 200 MA means absolutely nothing. When you've become skilled, you'll know when that is.

    Interested in learning how to trade using technical analysis.

    The most important concepts of TA will fit onto a 3"x5" index card, but it's gonna take a LOT of "sifting" through info and theory to get down to it. Suggest reading all you can that's free online and on Youtube before you bother with books. (Books are most likely going to give you a heap of...

    Non-citizens commit 42% of federal crimes, despite being 7% of population

    Sure. Let's invite whole SWARM of them bastards into our country.... and pay for their support and upkeep while we're at it! :(

    Someone asked "Why do some British people not like Donald Trump?"

    China has had the most remarkable economic growth and transformation over the last 30 years... that the world has ever seen. Mostly with the help of the US. Much of that was our "handing over" the manufacturing part of our economy to them so they could take advange of cheap labor and we could...

    I think you're the one "splitting hairs". Trading requires no physical skill whatsoever besides clicking a mouse. Didn't claim there aren't other skills involved.

    Well, yeah. Your claim was that trading required a "skill like golf", but it doesn't. In golf, you have to EXECUTE a variety of shots. That takes practice and talent. In trading, the only execution you need to do is in your mind.. then click the mouse. No physical skill involved.... unless...

    How is one "clicking of a mouse" more proficient than another?
