    my last 7 trades

    I'm with you today in a way, I just spent months researching trading before going to work by watching headlines in the morning, then I traded on paper for a couple of weeks, seemed ok, then I tried trading with the real account for a couple of weeks. After days of technical troubles, driving...

    POLL: The repercussions of a US attack on Iraq

    What, you don't think 100 people can search an area equal to California with no clues from the locals who have had 12 years to hide stuff? Geez, give the UN some credit!! Max

    Tradestation 7

    If TS7 has arrays in its programming language like TS2000 does then you can generate all the timeframes you want. You have to generate the bars of data in an array via EZ Language programming then you can apply indicators to the arrays just like you apply them to the bar data visible on the...

    This war is illegal!

    Bush did a bad job of presenting the case. He should have acted like he needed everybody's support or he would not attack. Instead he says "my way or the highway" and everybody just took the position of "ok, go for it, we don't want to pay anything or do anything since you are going to anyhow...

    Data Feed and Q Charts

    Exactly. I have lots of history with Qcharts and I dropped it as a realtime trading tool, use it for research only, and it is great for that. They will always try to tell you that problems are with your feed, your computer, etc., hardly ever is. The software just seems to have problems on some...

    Should we execute drug dealers?

    I'm for legalization and education. However, if you want to stop drugs you will have to have some severe penalties. Execution is about what it would take considering how easy it is to make so much money. People say prohibition of alcohol did not work. The pay for bringing a small boatload of...

    To achieve the "Unconscious competent" state

    I used to shoot baskets for exercise then it became sort of a Zen exercise the more I got into it. I learned a lot from that. One thing is to not think about what you do wrong at all, you think about what you did right during and after every shot no matter how bad. That helps you to divorce...

    The power of mind: trading by remote-viewing :D

    Nope and no, was just a talk show without live guests, can't remember the host's name at all, pretty sure it was not a syndicated show. I listen to stuff from all over the western US basically. The guy had the challenge going for weeks, nobody ever got it right. I guess that is one less thing to...

    The power of mind: trading by remote-viewing :D

    A radio talk show host (sorry I can't recall who or where from or where on the dial even) had a challenge out for somebody to remote view where he lived and tell him what was on the wall. Nobody ever got it. Max

    What's our demographic 2

    We Indians just do not count for anything. The federal govt. lost $90 billion in the trust fund, in the 90's apparently, can't account for it, the Bush spokeswoman for the Bureau of Indian Affairs said "let's be forward looking". It never made the news after that. What else is new? Max

    Spec of New Machine

    Dell buys the cheap components and then makes up for it by burning the systems in, pretty old fashioned way to achieve quality. If you want a good machine find somebody that really knows what works and have them bundle it. The VPR Matrix's from Best Buy are pretty good too, Intel motherboards...

    Chart Pattern recognition formulas

    Jack, I do the same thing you do but in the time domain. This works to some extent but recently a trader showed me some fractal analysis that projected wavefronts on the time domain charts indicating a near future point of price and time and it gave us information where the standard stuff could...
