    Teaching a teenager to trade

    Yannis, Do not pay attention to the posters that are saying you are insane. I was exposed to trading/investing at the age of 12. Bought my first stock at the age of 13 (before HS) and by the time I had graduated I turned my measly stake into a more than decent sum (with the help of a rich...

    For the trick to work, the player must stay so attached to the card he/she choses that they totaly miss the obvious fact that they all change. For Usual to 'work' he had to find a way to make the viewer see only what he wanted them to see. It is pretty cool when you watch that movie for the 2nd...

    As much as I love movies - I think I have only seen one Woody Allen movie, which was his latest one with Helen Hunt. Seems to be inline with your 'overeducated' theory... PEACE my friend...

    Rearden, I think I like the movie, because I got the Okie Doke. Synger dangled a carrot in front of my face and I was not sharp enough to see his angle. It reminds me of Roshomon, in that the second go-round it is virtualy a different experience. Reminds me a lot of this card trick...

    Actually, if I am not mistaken, Crouching was a modern 'eastern flavored' rendition of a Shakespeare play. If William doesn't know substance I don't know who would. As for the dialogue, there is a huge culture / language barrier to cross. To appreciate the dialogue I think you would need to read...

    Size: How many ES Contracts would you trade?

    Vienna, In my experience you are fine with anything under 50, over that would just be speculation on my part -- but I think you can do 75 to 100 with 3pt stops with not much of a problem... Good fortune on your journey... PEACE

    Superstition, Luck and Voodo, the Sequel

    I don't know if 'help' is the right word really and I don't believe in 'luck'. When I step up to the plate I am not longing for anything new, but actually very much the opposite. I have already been to where I want to go. I think I play the song for the very same reason I look foward to each...

    Superstition, Luck and Voodo, the Sequel

    I have been playing the same exact song to start off each session for the last 3 1/2 years (w/out missing 1 session)... Do you think this sort of compulsive type behavior constitutes "Superstition"? Personally I have my own theory on why I do this, but would like to hear others opinions...

    Not Cashing In On Pay Day

    I think we need to keep things in perspective here. "Easy" and "Pay Day" is very subjective and is determined by the type of style, system, etc that a trader 'employs'. Objectively speaking -- a trend day higher with that much force had no choice but to hurt the majority of players, for that...

    Looking at this list, it is very apparent that movies are simply too violent! Shheeesh, with no exceptions, do anyone of my favorite films exclude, death-killing-destruction :eek: Even the Ape got it in the opening seen of 2001 and Danny got it in Lebowski. Perhaps the only one that does not...

    Daniel_M, This was not an attempt to list the finest films of the past 50's years, for if it were I would have looked at the decades/films more objectively. This, as the thread indicates, is simply a list of my favorites. When Rs7 says I 'nailed it', perhaps he simply means I nailed his...
