    Is active trading a viable job for an individual?

    Yes, we don't really "compete" with anyone. We develop trade plans to take advantage of rhythms in the markets. At times when these rhythms are not present, the savvy trader waits until they reappear...and they always do.

    US guitar makers hit hard by new international logging regulations on prized rosewood

    Tone is tone no matter what your chops are. The problem with the US mass producers like Martin and Gibson is the Asian's are closing the gap on quality of tone and construction and of course do it a lot cheaper.

    Is active trading a viable job for an individual?

    It's viable for any who are willing and able to put in the extensive time, effort and personal development required of any demanding profession. Most enter the arena lacking either this understanding or diligent commitment.

    US guitar makers hit hard by new international logging regulations on prized rosewood

    Yep, amazing stuff being done electronically but my heart still bleeds for the Adirondack spruce top with solid rosewood or mahogany sides and back dreadnought acoustic. That's a nice looking ax you have there tho. I've had many Martin's, Gibson's and several Taylor's but the sweetest I've owned...

    US guitar makers hit hard by new international logging regulations on prized rosewood

    Tough to hear of this. Brazilian rosewood has been off the table for years and now Asian. Rosewood gives an acoustic guitar a slightly brighter tone to my ear than mahogany but both are excellent tone woods. There are other tone woods but to me, rosewood and mahogany are the best.

    "Easier" to make money going Long than Short?

    I tend to get more trade-able long signals in a bullish environment and vice versa but as a day trader, I get plenty of both. Win to lose percentage is statistically even regardless of direction. I have a mild bias toward shorts as I find them quicker moving, fear stronger than greed possibly...

    New to trading - Got a bunch of books. Scared to learn outdated things.

    I'm not qualified as I have not tested nor traded fib's. Re your argument, trend lines smack of predetermination, pullbacks, patterns etc. The only arbiter is whether a thing works.

    New to trading - Got a bunch of books. Scared to learn outdated things.

    Carolyn was taught by Bob Miner to trade fib time and price clusters. I took a look at the stuff years ago but never went there and don't consider myself qualified to judge.
