    I just think the perception is reality, and it has all of the wrong momentum right now. I think California is going to go after them. The SEC is going to go after them. The insurance companies going after them. Shareholders are going to go after them. And I don't think these can be...

    Global Macro Trading Journal

    I think the whole $100M option to buy Philidor is for this very reason that they can insulate themselves and walk away, and claim that they do not own Philidor in legal jargon. Philidor is probably going to get sued into oblivion. The main question is if they can tie it to Valeant, and make...

    I think VRX is going to be fine legally. They can't sell into California per some lawsuit that they lost, so Valeant buys an option to acquire specialty pharmacies that sells in California and to circumvent the California ban. So for now, they can claim they don't own these specialty...

    Looking for a Mentor (Los Angeles / Orange County

    This thread is like asking for a best friend on a public forum, on your first post. My advice to you is to find a local trading club or trader meetup, and join. If there isn't one, then set one up, usually a place with food and alcohol in a good location. Traders love to meet and talk as it is...

    Marketsurfer's confession

    If you really feel guilty or bad about it, then you wouldn't trade or solicit other people's money for trading anymore. Try trading your own money, you can be as reckless as you want. Action speaks louder than words. Words are easy, anyone can spew it out of their mouth. So are you still...

    2014: The Battle for Survival

    Neke, You just keep doing your thing, and swing for the fences. Sure, you pressed on the accelerator after you had a great month, and it didn't work out as expected. But it is this kind of risk taking that is going to make you jump to the next level.

    EU - where is it going next?

    ^ Euro heading back to 1.40 like I had predicted. They are going to call ECB's bluff.

    EU - where is it going next?

    I don't know, I see them spiking Euro higher this past 1.40 and calling Draghi's bluff. Lots of talk and no action. It is almost like when someone says, DO NOT CROSS THIS LINE, then inevitably the prices moves to that line and puts a toe over it to see what happens. It is like a challenge.

    I got it!.....I lost it...The search for consistency.

    Of course, there is the mental aspect of trading as well. Fear and greed will always manifest itself in your trading. So successful trading is a combination of knowledge and emotions. You can be the smartest guy, but you cannot control your emotions, then you are going to lose because...

    I got it!.....I lost it...The search for consistency.

    Find your niche. Sometimes, people call it "edge", but I really don't like to use that word because it feels like some kind of secret pattern that you have to find. So what is a niche? It is something that YOU are good at. It doesn't have to be some kind of chart pattern on the 1 min...

    The Top: Google buys Nest Labs

    If you thought Google bought NEST for their thermostats, you must be living under a rock or do not understand technology. Google is buying them to take over the home technology / monitoring space. If NEST can monitor and "connect" to your thermostat, just think of how Google can use that...

    Weekly trades from an engineer

    So this is an retirement account since you can't touch it for another 20 years? If it is, pretty ballsy. Most people will tell you that you should NOT discretionary trade your retirement account ,and instead put it into a low yield mutual fund. I say that is good advice to 95% of the people...
