    Election results: Nothing will change

    Take off your political "hats" and strip away your emotional attachment to your party and just read the facts about which party, over the last 80 years, has done a better job at growing the economy. Be objective! Remember, figures don't lie, liars figure. :D...

    Going to NY in 2.5 weeks

    Madison Square Park and the Flatiron area is worth checking out IMO, if you are on your way to Union Sq or lower

    Going to NY in 2.5 weeks

    If you want to save some money on fine dining in NYC, used savored.com (I have no affiliation). It's free and you make a reservation thru the site and you'll get 25%-30% off your bill. When you're paying $200+ for a dinner, saving $60 feels good :)

    Going to NY in 2.5 weeks

    I've had drinks at the Ace Hotel several times and keep getting tempted by the Breslin. Will have to go and get the lamb burger next time I stop by there.

    I don't know, but my guess would be if any strat has a name (such as Donchian) that is known to anyone other that the person who created it, then it probably wouldn't continue to work well unless it's been modified in some way. That's just my guess/opinion.

    Anything that is overtly obvious or easy to spot and that is repetitive, won't last. But that which is not and that repeats can last for years and years. This has been my experience.

    Going to NY in 2.5 weeks

    Massively overrated IMO. It's tiny. It good but nothing special. Not worth all the hype.

    Whats The Big Hype With this RGIII?

    Yeah because football is not the ultimate team sport. Couldn't have anything to do with the Redskins having the worst pass defense in the NFL. RGIII obviously is a huge part of the defense, being the quarterback and all, LOL. Seriously though, Luck is going to be great but RGIII has played...

    Hope everyone in New York City is ok following the hurricane. I fled my place in Gramercy Park on Thursday night (after 3+ days in the dark) and headed to my house in the Catskills where we had power. Looking fwd to a productive week, and excited for things to get back to normal in the city...

    Ugh, I just wrote a whole long detailed post and then I lost power for a few mins. I live in Manhattan, NYC. I don't have the energy to write a whole long post again but will say that you can't JUST rely on "classic" TA patterns as your core trading method. You need to learn more about HOW...

    Yeah, I'd say just what I said on the last page, REVERSE at inflection points. Of course, this assumes you have a method that trades around these moments. If you are long and get stopped out and then it breaks down (per your example), wouldn't you want to be short?? PS Only a NOOB trades...

    I don't read any trading books, this is all based on my own trading experience. Something you have very little of but for some reason pretend to have. Baffling behavior.

    Really? Trust you??... because both of you cannot making trading work for you and, in fact, both failed a paper trading combine. To say you guys "know" your stuff is laughable. You clearly have not crafted a system that works but yet seem hell bent on stamping your feet in disgust. Take my...

    Generally speaking, and I dont trade currencies but I often get trade setups at inflections points and sometimes my system get the initial direction wrong and I will take the loss at my stop price but also will REVERSE at my stop price. You'd be surprised how often this trade ends up being very...

    If you are talking about "feel" for the mkt or charts than what you've created was not OBJECTIVE.

    The fact that the OP uses a mere 3 systems as evidence to draw conclusions about ALL systems shows just how little he knows about the trading world. His behavior on some of these topics is just baffling.

    I won't, except for a very very small sample of systems. If you want to draw conclusions off a very small sample size go right ahead :p
