Portland/ Vancouver, WA gets less rain than Atlanta! Seattle gets way too much rain and is frequently overcast. That is true. Also, it has only two seasons: late spring and fall. WA is called the Switzerland of America. There is tremendous diversity of environments. You will see big...

Don't forget that Warner signed off on the biggest SPENDING increase in the history of the state. Even worse, his campaign jingle was the tackiest in the history of elections. Would someone from SC or MS think that some tech dude from NOVA by way of Indiana and Harvard Law is southern??? NOVA...

Mark Warner sucks. He is not charismatic enough and an obvious political creation. He is actually from a midwestern state. His record in VA would not fly well with most repubs in the grilling season. What is fascinating is that many dems, even leftwingers, tell me they would vote for...

Hmmm... sorry for interrupting your conversation. I am extremely green in AG... I have been experimenting with a small Oanda account and doubled my money earlier this week in AG only to lose most of the gains this morning. So are you saying that if it holds for two more days then the worst...

Does anybody here know if previous historical selloffs in AG occurred soon after exchanges upped the margin reqs?

UVA has the most arrogant, self- absorbed and pretentious undergrads I've ever seen. Either it was different when Paul Tudor Jones went there or he was blessed not to be marred for life. The school is highly overrated even in state. Virginia Tech is just as good in the sciences. William and...

You could be up over 100% in the last week if you were to trade the Oanda XAG/USD.

This is sorta off topic but interesting. I have routinely used my mother and her business as a referrence- never checked once. My brother is a recruiter that places people in $100k jobs, and he has told people how to pass drug tests after they went out bingeing the night before the urine test!

Kinda off the vein here but I'm wondering if there are any traders in NE NC (Elizabeth City, Moyock, etc.) or the Outer Banks...

I trade forex as a lark and as entertainment. I have had sleeping problems my entire life and was once prescribed a very powerful sedative. I had to quit it as it left me a zombie. My forex trading sucks so far. If I catch on, I could definitely handle the hours.

I read his book. He used to make money by exchanging ib commissions for analyst favors including stock picks about to be upgraded and downgraded. Also, he could legally tout his stocks on air or thestreet.com. Also, the stocks he got excited over in the late 90's excited everyone else. Also...

I was "Cramerized" recently, but it was a good thing. I like to trade microcap and nanocap stocks and bought shares of Goldfield (GV). Cramer touted KRY and mentioned that "Goldfield" might buy it out. What he meant was Gold Fields or GFI. I was down in the GV due to an attrocious entry...

Fancying myself something of a haberdasher whilst being in charge of alterations and men's styling at the Roxbury Brooks Brothers outlet, I overheard one day at work two distinguished gentlemen talking of spread reversions, regressions to the mean, bell curves, Zimbabwe T- bill interest rates...

Correction: the US was built on legal immigrants. The H1B knowledge workers and foreign grad students you site are here legally. How does the grunt work get done legally? Staffing companies should go abroad and bring back willing laborers for seasonal and short- term assignments. www.gmpusa.com

The U.S. would be fine if it stepped up enforcement of removing illegal aliens. Most illegal aliens perform non- essential work. Many metro areas would see fast food prices, lawn care, home improvement contracting and full- service gas prices rise 10- 15%. This would hardly derail the...

You've got it down cold

FloatAnalysis.com and he has a book also. hardly new ideas though.

If you had some profitable directions you would not need a guru. You could find some arbitrage niche or market abnormality to exploit. Gurus are only relevant for discretionary traders?
