    Trayvon Martin Incident: Facts vs. Distortion

    Really? Liberals here are not advocating the revocation of Women's suffrage, the CR65 Act, or using the word gay or Arab as a pejorative. If anyone wants to bend reality to their worldview, it is conservatives.

    Which fallacies could be considered very dangerous in trading? It is a pretty benign activity.

    Obama: Capitalism dosen't work and it has never worked

    I disagree. And it is funny that some righties scream about the fact that we are a Christian nation, but look the other way when it comes to usury. Usury( interest) is anti-Christian, so it should thus be Anti-American, if we are consistent with our principles. Eliminate usury and get rid...

    It's funny, a couple years ago, I would have made some snarky comment about your friend, now, as a trader who has come to the end of the road, all I want to do is go back and tell others where they are, as I have been there already. That said, your friend has not yet found that stops must be...

    The Klannish strike again

    They reverted back to what they know best. When blacks did decide to use their boot straps, it was done in Tulsa. It was called "black Wall Street". Thugs at the behest of the local government, burned it to the ground. It is no accident that Oklahoma is known as the reddest of the red...

    Well, my account for one, keeps growing. Two pips is a small price to pay for the opportunity to participate in the largest market on earth.

    Trayvon Martin Incident: Facts vs. Distortion

    We have the castle law, but if you catch the burglar, you still have to shoot as he is coming towards you. If you shoot him in the back, you are going to prison.

    Day trading is losers game

    All indicators do the same thing, they take a chunk of price and interpret that chunk based on some sort of parameters. The fastest indicator is price. Not saying other indicators do not work, but reading price is by far the fastest way to find out what is going on.

    Day trading is losers game

    No, you are correct, there will be Swans in every market, but currencies tend to be mean reverting, so the trick is from my experience, if you wake up and the central bank has decided something, simply trade around that position as it will most likely revert.

    I think what he meant was the FX charts do tend to be smoother. No gaps, and barring a defualt, your currency spread won't go to zero. Unless you like the CHF or the JPY, there is less chance for disaster.

    Averaging down is an option, but you must have a very wide capital base to do this correctly. In stocks, these corrections often come pre or post market where liquidity is thin and if you are on the wrong side, you are screwed. As far as being on the right side, if you go back and look at...

    Another good point, you can be relatively sloppy but it will lengthen your extraction times, and thus reduce your profits.

    Trayvon Martin Incident: Facts vs. Distortion

    Classic insecurity, Spike, and sadly he is not remotely aware of how broadly he projects this. Even worse, he hangs out on a traders site, but does not trade.

    Trayvon Martin Incident: Facts vs. Distortion

    I dunno, they killed CoolTraderDuds, thread and I think it should have been allowed to stand. We need these "Here be Nazis", threads to remain.

    GOP establishment thinks Mitt Romney will lose to Obama

    Doesn't matter, the GOP pandered to the base to the point where they tipped their hand. America knows that the GOP represents the like of some of the ET nutbirds here, some of which support the repeal of CR65, and Women's suffrage. And thanks to Joe they were stupid enuf to put that on the...

    Then go find a more friendly market, there are many. Or, widen your timeframe if you are married to stock trading.
