It's just as easy for a human to fat finger a stock... LoL... Computers are prone to computer errors just as humans are prone to human errors.

If you look into chaos theory and the theories that will be developed in the future to deal with turbulence and other "chaotic" things it's obvious there is actually no such thing as random in any system. It is likely that there are trends on a roulette table but humans are not smart and...

"Ben Bernanke: The Man Who Saved the Economy" Ben Bernanke did more than that! He saved the world!!! cdcaveman the Jackson Hole Meeting speeches start on the 31st and conclude on the 1st of Aug. After that we have the German court decisions on September 12th. If all goes well global...

Was listening to a guy a week and a half ago and he called new highs and for the market to pull back and backfill to around 1390 before moving higher. CNBC is the holy grail! :D

I just realized something... Good thing there are not more female traders or we would really see a HUGE moon cycle correlation... Rotflmao... I love entertaining myself on the weekends by screwing with the little dipshits on ET. :D

This is actually a more well known correlation than the Lunar Cycles. However... It's not a very predictable one. researchnews.osu.edu/archive/sunstock.htm Hilarious... Even my old college put out a paper on it! If you look at the data it's not a big enough correlation to bother with...

From my private blog: "August 17, 2012 Looking like 2007 over again. The market behavior has been quite good lately and we have a strong daily uptrend. Not too worried about the market until September/October. Things are going to get a little rough as the market pushes toward new bull...

LoL... It's a correlation dipsh*t. Don't you know what that is? It means that if the market is in an uptrend into a new moon/waxing the uptrend will be a certain percentage amount stronger. If the market is in an uptrend into a Full Moon/Waning it will be a certain percentage weaker. Go learn...

I thought it was lunacy myself... But after reviewing document after document of university research and peer reviewed professional journals including biologists and behavior physiologists... Behavioral correlations with the moon are across the board and have been scientifically analyzed with...

Yea, this post is mostly entertainment. The moon cycles are a proven market correlation though. If the market is in a downtrend it will be strongest during the new moon into the waxing. And weakest from the full moon into the waning. Do realize though that over a very long period of time the...

My projections were for the market to be topping out mid September... The lunar calendar also says maximum optimism shall be mid September!

You can definitely see the heightened optimism that puts in the market highs from the new moon into the waxing moon as investors are getting laid the most during these periods and feeling good.

Yep... Just as I figured... Investors are starting to front run the lunar cycles. Each market top is confirming on the new moon as the point of maximum optimism nowadays. LoL... :D :D :D

The number of traders using lunar cycles bugged me recently so I decided to look into it and see if it was all Lunacy. http://www.theatlantic.com/business/archive/2009/06/do-moon-cycles-affect-the-stock-market/19933/ http://www.bus.umich.edu/pdf/mitsui/workshopdocs/ZhengMoonstruck.pdf...

Here is the GBP/USD during lovely low T/R ratio conditions... Conditions generally change slowly and steadily. If they change just adjust your approach and strategy...

Like the climate is easy to predict... Market conditions are easy to predict. But, like the weather... It's hard to predict exactly whats going to happen. Here is how to understand the T/R Ratio... If a market moves 20 pips/points over 10 bars... And has a range of 20pips/points over those...

I use something different for a similar purpose... I monitor the trending/ranging behavior and use something I call the T/R Ratio. Trend/Range ratio. Market behavior tends to change steadily so as the T/R ratio changes I change my trading approach. If a market is maintaining a Trend/Range...

AAPL... Averages around 23 bars of 300 tick movement per day. Actually, that's just recently as everyone has gotten emotional about all time new highs. Normally it's a bit lower...

Well... Here is a stupidly simple way to get started in solving this... AAPL, H/L Bars, 100 Range in Ticks. 131 Bars Friday. So, there were 131 bars with $1.0 of movement. IMO this is all quite useless... I don't see how this is useful for trading except to tell you if a stock moves enough...

Doesn't matter if they ease or not... Don't trade before the news. Bernanke knows investors need reassurances and he will word his sentences just right not to create too much euphoria but to keep markets stable.
