    Some tips in Trading the ES successfully

    Personally, I trade totally on price action. I don't use indicators anymore with one exception... nyse tick. If your not using nyse tick, your trading the emini blind and with one hand tied behind your back. The key to successfully trading the emini IMHO is to follow the big money.. the...

    Better off as a plumber?

    There's more than one way to skin a cat when it comes to learning a trade and making a living. A fiend of mine is a chef in a high end restaurant. We got to talking about how he finds his help... he said he wouldn't hire anybody out of those vocational chef schools since he ends up having to...

    Texas - what the hell - huge budget crisis

    In Colorado, you have to prove citizenship or legal residency or no bennies. Now in reality, illegal parents can reallocate funds from their legal kid residents and if you show up dieing at the ER you will be treated. But no elective surgery at all. What I don't get, is Texas has a history of...

    Texas - what the hell - huge budget crisis

    If the US adopted the policies of the Mexican government we wouldn't have an issue. Mexico has some serious laws regarding immigration and citizenship...and their country actually enforces them.

    Charts Patterns are not correct

    For what it's worth... I dumped candlesticks a long time ago and actually saw a slight improvement in my bottom line. I stopped looking for crap that really wasn't there... I use a tick chart with H/L bars and price action to simplify things and my performance has improved.

    Obama busses in protesters to Wisconsin

    I would love it if Trumka had the balls to build business and meet a payroll. He's been leeching off the mindless tit of union thuggery all his life. There was a time when unions were needed... now, they're just a front to pad his fat ass.. the gig is up.

    Can you guys recommend a Forex Broker ?

    I've been using Open E Cry for a few months and I have zero complaints. Trading off the chart is really fast, easy and a no brainer. I love the sliding trail stop from the chart. Great spreads and customer support.

    It's nice not to have fill out a state income tax every year, but...dammmmmn, that property tax bill is a killer.

    I feel like giving up!

    Mastering your emotions and discipline is a very personal journey and something thats different for everyone. I wouldn't even begin to tell someone how to develop their own, but for me it was thousands of hours in front of a screen and thousands in losses until it finally started to click. If I...

    I feel like giving up!

    I know to some this is gonna sound pious and all righteous and all, and some are gonna think I'm full of shit, ... whatever... but success in trading has very little to do with technicals, etc. It has everything to do with mastering your inner emotions. Most people fail because they have not...

    QuoteTracker To Be Finished End of 2011

    Probably my bad but I haven't looked very hard for "Chandlier". I know it best as a vstop, and I have found other charts using it, but not as an integrated chart with my TD account. I have a feeling I'm going to have to adjust in the near future so I'll have to do more due diligence in finding a...

    QuoteTracker To Be Finished End of 2011

    Just my opinion and it's not worth 2 cents, but thinkorswim is absolute garbage compared to QT. It mesmerizes the inexperienced retail guys with bells and whistles that are just not needed. It's overally complex and visually crap.

    QuoteTracker To Be Finished End of 2011

    I use volatility stops religiously and QT is the only one I've found that can easily and simply chart them with visual simplicity like no other I've found. I'm use to it, I like it, and I hate parting with such a great app.

    QuoteTracker To Be Finished End of 2011

    ...couldn't believe it when I read it, so I emailed TDA and they confirmed they are phasing it out. The guy tried to sell me on other tools they offer, but anyone who has ever used QT quickly realizes how great a charting tool it really is... the others are just absolute crap. I'm on the...

    Goldman predicts 1500 SPX in 2011

    No one knows what levels we will or won't reach and that includes Goldman. They don't know anymore than the avg puke on the street... but they have a bully pulpit and an arrogant predisposition to pretend they do. They make a determination to cheerlead on the side of the market that most...
