Your post jogged my memory, unfortunately it was 20 years ago and I don't remember some specifics, but I damn sure remember results. At the time I had real time quotes and would phone in orders. I was short gold and the market gapped down, like a stone this day, $3.00 a contract when the...

When the WTC was attacked I was glad Bush was president and not Gore and especially not Bill and Hillary. As time has passed I think he is a good war time president who has guts and the ability to work within the confines of a democracy. No time now for a wimpy, immoral, political type leader.

If you're disgusted to be American go live somewhere else and grow up in a society you feel is better. No one could make Clinton look bad, he does a fine job on his own.

You know, you might not be such a bad fellow after all.......

ok..I DON'T get it....citizens are protected BY the Constitution, government IS sworn to uphold the Constitution. If you are a citizen who "doesn't uphold the Constitution" than you must be an alien? Aliens who "threaten the rights of the citizens" are breaking the law. Aliens who don't...

Went to a graduation last week and a few rows in front of me were 3 arab/muslim people who didn't stand for the national anthem. My first reaction was anger than outrage, you send a family member to be educated in the US, but you show no respect by being seated. They are free to remain seated...

have come to this conclusion: were citizens allowed to bear arms, the World Trade Centers would probably be standing today Not sure I understand. If citizens carried firearms openly we could have prevented 9/11? Here in the NY,NJ area we have the stickiest gun laws in the nation, only...

Beyond Level I is finding the inefficient volatility projections and the strategies to exploit them, and that edge is not likely to be found very easily.

OK Pussy, your move. Take the other side of the trade or shut up.

I have a cable connection and every site loads quickly, but past few days this site loads like a 28k modem, what's different now, or is just me?

You're acting more like a frenchman than an Italian. You're pissed about not getting away with something, but wrong. We may seem arrogant but you're confusing that with being very competitive. Don't be envious, just understand the difference. I'm sure it didn't have anything to do with the...

GATrader: Funny how it always seems to come back to"simple is better", and sticking to the 3:1 appears the best scenario. On a directional trade when you have a large profit there is a benefit to put on other strategies as per Cottle. Thanks for the reply.

GATrader, How will you exit the trade? Will you put on another spread, or use another strategy if you go to May expiration?

He said in a column that he would not be writing for awhile after 9/11 and he and Jeff B. were looking for a new office. I went on vacation and after a few weeks on returning I started e-mailing the editor asking where he was. Something was up when they took his picture down. After many...

At first I thought this thread was about scan writing, but rereading it I see its about scan selections, for swing trades, so for what it's worth: MWY Long-Big volume and run up 21 days ago, consolidating, small gap up Friday, could breakout. THOR For Bottom Pickers-Bowl type...
