He is simply doing what you do, call trades out a week after the fact. You're right, maybe he is a member of ET!

It wasn't a critique. Are you outraged at Bill Clinton too or is this just a middle aged crisis you are going through?

You are describing Bill Clinton there as well sparky. Do you ever get tired of starting these "pretend outrage" threads or are you just meeting your monthly quota requirement?

Deaddog, there were 5 different threads 100's of pages long that went over all this in detail. Not to mention every single question you asked in your post is answered directly on their website. Just use the search function in the upper right.

I have modified my number lines considerably from his. But let me make this point, as it's very important, I modified my number lines based on MY personal trading experience over the last 15 years. I wanted them to make sense to me. I have to score them everyday so it only makes sense if I...

You still don't get it. And every time I read one of your posts my IQ drops 10 pts so I have to watch my risk levels here. Let's cut to the chase, you're a fan of Marc Rich? Let me guess, you're a liberal too? Let me further guess, you hated Bush because he started wars for oil. Let me ask...

Pekelo, I know all about Foxcon. Talk to Al Gore if you have a problem with AAPL. He sits on their board. I guess he cares more about the trees then the suicidal children in the Foxcon factory. And no, I'm not a fan of AAPL and I've known about their shit for years. It's not a great analogy...

OMG Surf, do you some reading and you will see EXACTLY why he got that pardon. Surf, you really don't know the backstory between the Clintons, Marc Rich and Vince Foster and all the murders? Just type in Marc Rich and Hilary Clinton in google and poor yourself a cold one and sit back and read...

Surf,take a day off and google Marc Rich, or better yet, there are countless books out there about him. The TV show 60 Minutes did a few exposes on him over the years. Learn a little more about the backstory. You are acting as if he is a legitimate guy that just had some bad vices. Let me...

OK, let me walk through this more slowly. All conspiracy theories aside that have been mentioned in the past, we are dealing with two separate entities here. Please accept this as a given or the argument becomes more challenging. One entity is basically acting as a broker. Who this broker is is...

The oil was NOT banned. Where are you guys getting these irrelevant details from?

Surf, I'm not talking about the law. Where in my post did I ever mention the law. I'm talking about WHERE he GOT his oil FROM. I could give two shits about what he did or did not pay in taxes. This is EXACTLY why the child trafficking analogy was valid.

Surf, you need to read more of Vic's books. You need to be objective. You are fixated on the variable. The variable could be anything. In statistics they use a random variable. Stop focusing on the variable and focus more on the equation. It should solve the same.

Surf, I'll make this easy for you. Let's change the variable from oil to sexual trafficking of children keeping all other things constant. Both people are trading something that is very lucrative. Both people may not even have an interest in the commodity itself, just the money. So let me...

Which one? The 2nd book was far better and more interesting then the first.

What the US govt did or did not do is a straw man. It's completely irrelevant to the character of the man. As to "helping the people" in those poor countries. You are very naive if you think even a dollar of that oil money ever fed a starving child or sick woman. The money goes to dictators...

You completely missed the point. It's irrelevant "who" the backer is. The point is, the mechanism in which the backer gets compensated would be a nightmare in the securities world vs the futures world. PTP would need to become a registered broker dealer which is very expensive to start and to...

Ugh, I may have to e-mail Michael Covel and ask him where I saw it. I have a bunch of his books. I know that I saw the graphic somewhere. Still trying to dig it up. This graphic I'm attaching isn't it, but it gives you an idea of how you could create the data yourself.

Well, the guy did business with terrorists who cut the heads off people who didn't pay. He tapped into a market that was very inefficient because people with a conscience wouldn't touch it. Oil was seriously mispriced in the physical market because large entities the world over would not touch...
