    Horse Slaughter

    Why do so many vegans look like minions of Dracula in need of a serious withdrawl from the blood bank? :) :)

    Tips for Taking Smaller Stops -- What works?

    1. Take that 1 point and multiply it by 20 ES contracts and you've got the same risk/reward ratio. 2. Why do you think a trader focusing all their attention at trading only one or two futures contracts extremely well is such a bad idea compared to trying to simultaneously enter and manage 6+...

    10 Reasons To Ban Moore's Film

    You wouldn't expect Michael to be bothered with little things like facts. Assuming that anything he puts on film, says, or writes is at the very least heavily shaded (if not completely made up) seems to be a pretty reliable course. But you've got to give him credit - there's a subset of...

    10 Reasons To Ban Moore's Film

    Still wondering who this "Civilized World" is you keep talking about. Presumably not the corrupt French or Russian governments who profited so much from all the money they pirated out of the UN's oil for food program for Iraq (to the detriment of the Iraqi peoples). Or the German...

    Does everyone have a degree?

    Yeah, folks who got in or where already in the industry 6, 8, or more years ago didn't face the initial screening filter that's applied now. Lot of places on Wall Street now a days won't even look at a new (with no prior Street experience) candidate without an MBA, let alone a B.S. Same in...

    Horse Slaughter

    Why do you even want to continue living?? Would take a hell of a lot more joints and Heinekens every day to make eating like a rabbit tolerable :) :) :) :)

    Does everyone have a degree?

    Trading, as with any self-employment, you don't "need" a degree. But it IS self-employment, and hence a business - so you need to be prepared not only to have the trading skills but also run it like a business. It only becomes important if you aren't able to make a living trading (or you...

    Moore lies? Sacre bleu!!

    Indeed, he should be rewarded - not criticized and nitpicked (especially by the vast right wing conspiracy) simply because he takes some artistic license in his works. At least the always discerning and emminently intelligent and tasteful French rightly gave him a 20 minute standing ovation...

    why Kerry is going to lose

    Indeed - in fact, if there actually was truth in politics there could be no politics as we know it :) Peace

    why Kerry is going to lose

    You might want to actually read the whole post instead of doing the knee jerk two step. I didn't write the text, I posted it from an email I received as an example of where anti-Kerry rhetoric is going. And who the hell said anything about Limbaugh?? He's become a pompous ass as far off...

    Swing Trading Futures

    When you say "swing trade", do you really mean multiday position trade (note that swing trading is a method/style of trading that is independent of the trading timeframe - lots of people swing trade intraday)? If you're holding a position and want to keep holding it as the front month...

    Israeli leader's WWII analogy draws fire

    I didn't say they were efficient - merely oppressive.

    Israeli leader's WWII analogy draws fire

    Yeah, comparing to the Nazis would be a little heavy handed (he didn't actually do that). Comparing to the Chinese military's oppression and their justfication for doing anything they wanted as a quelling of militants is probably a more appropriate analogy than the Nazis.

    Anyone else think Elliot Wave is a bunch of hooey?

    Yeah, as soon as two dumb asses intersect - they either start trying to impress each other with repeated volleys of inane and off-topic drivel or dive straight into vitiolic name calling Too bad the moderators aren't able to do a more thorough cleansing - like transferring stupid and...

    why Kerry is going to lose

    Just got this from a friend via email - it's being chain-mailed around apparently (based on the dozens deep list of forwardings embedded in the email) - looks like Kerry's ties to the "evil" wealthy and all the trappings and excesses of wealth he personally enjoys are going to be thrown up more...

    Internet explorer

    FYI - once you've allowed your registry settings for IE to be compromised (something which is not typically fixed by virus/spyware SW), reinstalling IE will do nothing. As far as HTAs go - according to Microsoft, HTA activation is supposed to follow the same process as if you click a link to...

    Anyone else think Elliot Wave is a bunch of hooey?

    If you've ever seen EW software in action, you'd know there's no way to backtest it - in effect, the whole EW process is a perpetual backtest until it finally determines the "correct count" in hindsight. For EWers, the method is flawless - they just didn't have the right count (from the...

    Anyone else think Elliot Wave is a bunch of hooey?

    EW is the most perfect system ever developed - for hindsight analysis :)

    Tips for Taking Smaller Stops -- What works?

    You make two good, but distinct points that should be separated for novice traders: 1. You can't win them all - so if you need to minimize/mitigate the losses - however it needs to be clear that (depending on the various specific factors) doesn't necessarily mean keeping the stop interval...

    Tips for Taking Smaller Stops -- What works?

    Seems like a lot of effort (sounds like you're trying to basically run six scalps simultaneously) for a net of less than 1 point. Why not just focus all that attention and effort on taking points out of the ES, NQ, or YM?
