    Why can't I get a job? Recent Grad, 3.7 GPA, Good Exp, Year and a half of searching..

    Why can't I get a job? Basically, the country has been sold down the river by the marriage of greedy business types with greedy political types. As much as I dislike the boys and girls like Dingy Harry Reid, Nasty Nancy Pelosi, and Barry Obama, the sellout preceded them. THERE IS NO JOB...

    Prominent ICU Doctor: H1N1 influenza "most frightening thing I've seen in my career"

    That New World Order crowd is all about PUBLIC JOB PRESERVATION. The will exploit any opportunity as a diversion to meet that end. In the UK for instance, the FLU helps divert attention from those boys and girls in power who allowed Qadaffi to play them like a cheap fiddle and get a...

    Trend is your friend, really ?

    There are TWO ways to play a trend. You can play a trend as a momentum player or you can play a trend as a contrarian. I am a CONTRARIAN. What does that mean you may ask? If you are a daytrader, then looking to short DAILY highs on descending stocks in a descending trend...

    List of personal rules for trading that makes U successful

    I think that psychological preparation is the key to profitable trading. You have to be prepared for a position on an individual stock to move against you. You have to be prepared for the entire market to move against you. How you handle that pyschologically seperates the profitable...

    List of personal rules for trading that makes U successful

    I have met two people in my life who were great mentors, one was my grandfather who passed more than forty years ago. Neither was a trader. The other said something that I will never forget. All profound truth is paradoxical. I will offer this further insight into the left brained...

    List of personal rules for trading that makes U successful

    Trading is risk taking. I have never met ANYONE in person who makes their living trading or gambling or any other risk taking which is considered as high risk as those two endeavors. In my younger days, I was a sports gambler. I have not gambled illegally or legally for that matter since...

    List of personal rules for trading that makes U successful

    Personal hygiene is important. Never trade in your pajamas without showering and shaving. Just because we do not have a boss and we work from home does is no excuse to let ourselves go. If you think what I am saying is foolishness, then I advise you to rewatch The Shining with Jack...

    (What does it feel like to lose?)

    (What does it feel like to lose?) It should NOT feel COMFORTABLE. It if it does, then martydom, victimhood, and being a loser is probably your fate in life. If you would like to celebrate all of the above, then I would recommend that you become a Cub fan. They have formalized...

    Art Cashin talks about next week market

    Arthur Cashin is my favorite personality on CNBC. I have for the most part stopped watching CNBC which is simply one of the many Barry Obama CHEERLEADING channels offered by NBC. PSMBNC and little Matty Laurer and Bozo Brian Williams carrying Barry's water on the broadcast network NBC. I...

    People leave groceries at the check out

    I am pretty much a complete idiot. The only thing I know about life is what I observe at Walmart or Aldi's. There is an Aldi's which is convenient for me to stop at as I find my way home. My guess is that over 50 per cent of their business is WIC and 30 per cent is older folk on fixed...

    QuoteTracker---Prices to double.

    I would pay 14 dollars a month for Quotetracker. But I have an Ameritrade account and do not have to pay for it. I think my Ameritrade account was originally a Datek account, but I have lost track exactly how that came about. I hate to sound like the old geezer who says that he walked...

    What bothers a trader the most ?

    What bothers a trader the most ? Losses do NOT bother me, if I LOST with my best stock going with the long term TREND not against it. If I lost with a stock which I do not play much going against the long term trend then that BOTHERS ME, BIG TIME. All the above means, that every trade...

    Scary Reality. Great Depression II Is Here

    First, it bothers me that people refer to what we now see as the Great Depression II. Walker Evans photographed the Great Depression and I see the poorest people in my community every day. They are not STARVING, they do not have SUNKEN FACES and their eyes are not particularly sad. The...

    who do you trust ?

    You have 5602 posts. I respect that. Trust is a term which gets to heart of everything, trading included. I have made my living trading for more than ten years on being a contrarian which means I operate more on skepticism than trust.

    Dr. Deco's Cure for Overtrading

    God I love you, oiha. The definition of CHAOS is when US NOTHINGS of this world CANNOT afford a BUZZ. Boys and Girls like Barry Obama, Nasty Nancy Pelosi, and Dingy Harry Reid fully understand they have NO OFFICE if the underclass cannot afford to get a BUZZ on.
