Howdy to all in Trading Land. In my case, Fantasy Land (ha!). Another harrowing day in the markets. Tough morning. Was down more than 30 ticks before 9 a.m. Losses and drawdowns come with the job but that doesn't mean they are any easier to endure. Results for today. October 10, 2006...

100 years ago Gann and Livermore made fortunes anticipating economic movement. Gann did it with astrology and mathematics and Livermore did it thru a crude spread sheet. There was no internet, CNBC, telephone usage was cumbersome, expensive and not as widespread, same for the telegraph...

I'm cutting me own throat here. Where am I going to find suckers if I don't check my own math. I'm having a bad day. I traded 50 ER contracts went long @ 738.4 at 10:14 and exited @ 742.50 at 10:31 for a total profit of $4,000. I paid so much in comission its not even worth it. I'm heading...

Thanks for the breath of fresh air mschey. Are you more tweeker or trader? This thread got off on the wrong foot. I am not interested in sharing anything. Only to say that it is very possible to consistently beat the markets. To all the whiners, wolves and beggars, words are meaningless. This...

Good that you set the record straight, swtrader. The world needs people like you to protect it from scammers like me. The one thing I dislike about the audiological algorithm is that it overtrades. For the life of me I can't seem to keep it under 5 trades per day. Today I traded the ER and...

I am setting myself up as larger than life, Guru status notwithstanding. Not every technical mind is profit oriented. Most rocket scientisits who work at NASA aren't necessarily interested in the markets, or they wouldn't be working at NASA. As a trader, I found what works for me. Yes, I...

I sense this thread is being mocked. Skepticism is encouraged. The term audiology may not be sufficient. The science of radio waves is more accurate. Radio wave calculations assumes an uninterrupted, unobtrusive path. Perfect harmony. What came before, will happen again. The markets is...

I am selling the idea that the markets are beatable. Random Walk theory is just that, a theory. Sometimes it is better to be lucky than smart. I am not smarter or more experienced or better than any of you. Just lucky. Lucky that I was in the right place at the right time to understand...

I've taken $4732 and in a little over seven years profited over $5,356,888.42 including today. The average is 5% compounded monthly, which would be higher except for the execution details. Becoming a member of an exchange is an option, one I am not considering now. IF one has the proper...

Jesse Livermore did it with a crude spreadsheet. William Delbert Gann did it with astronomy and astrology. Steven Cohen does it by "getting the information first." Those who say the markets cannot be predicted, cannot predict it. Those who say the trader's Grail does not exist, has never...
