If you've been at ET since 2003 and still don't know the difference between a stock AND an ETF you might be one of the dumber people here. And that is truly tough to do :D

I agree with Steve46, this opportunity should excite you. The idea that the tests you did were incorrect and the opportunity comes about where you can try again, using the correct info this time. If you are able to code it up and it works, imagine how great that would be for you. So stop...

LOL, Bingo! :D

I hope he only took his own life and not the lives of his loved ones too like so many people end up doing.

Wow, T28 exposed as a for pay chat room participant. That is phenominal. I can't count the number of time I heard his aliases say that real traders are "fiercely independent" people only to now find out he pays to use Kingfish's services :D

Yes both most noobs go for the indicators first and try and make things work by letting the indicators do all the work. But in reality, these same noobs would have been better off starting with price and after learning how to read that THEN maybe employ indicators to refine or provide extra...

Price leads, indicators lag. If you'd rather commit your time and energy to using stuff that is lagging the mkt rather than learning to read and understand what is leading then be my guest. I'm not saying indicators dont work, however one must learn HOW to use a particular indicator and...

People dont want to hear it took that long, dont you know people like quick and easy things and not making any sacrifices :D

You make the incorrect assumption that technical indicators = technical analysis. The best TA I know of is of the personal experience nature from watching the markets over years of time. Over time, you develop an instinct based on what you are seeing that allows you to understanding the...

You SCREAM sell 4 times but then say do your own research. I don't get it, whats the point of yelling SELL if you are just going to pussy out with the lame disclaimer?

Again, you aren't listening to what I said. I agree with you there isn't anything new under the sun which is precisely why I am comparing the "Hershey" method with the method that my acquaintance friend trades. They are very similar. Which is to say that he learned from the markets behavior what...

Bro, I KNOW that Hershey didnt invent this stuff, which is precisely why I am sharing this experience with everyone. My point is that a guy who isn't affiliated with Jack has developed a method of his own and it HAPPENS to resemble what is here at ET. And he makes a great living.

I saw him trading btw 25-60 lots. He told me, and which makes perfect sense to me, is that some of his trade situations warrant a scaling approach (never more than 3 scales) and some involve all in in one shot. As the situation is developing, he senses which type of situation it's going to be...

My my, I'm so glad BlueDolt started this thread, let me explain what I have been doing for the last 3 days. Monday of this past week, I was back in touch with an acquaintance I met through a friend who trades remote like I do. He is a futures trader and has been for some years. I had sat...

Your goals are normal and reasonable, they are really all I care about for myself as well. Considering today the range on the ES was 16 pts but there were many up and down legs in between which could have been traded and 3X a daily range would certainly be physically POSSIBLE. I agree that...

Success? You? Well you HAVE successfully made me laugh so kudos :p

Bluedolt responds: "Not now mommy, I am still going after Jack since he PM'med me a few years back. I just can't get over it! Jack brought down the thunder and now I'm going to make it rain!" LOL! :p

Wow, I guess mommies basement is getting pretty tight between all your little "stores". Wait, I hear your mom now...."Stevie time for dinner. Leave Jack alone for 30 minutes and come get your din din."

Hey Bluedolt, you don't even trade fulltime? You run a computer store!? LMFAO. Between your little store and your need to post all day (during trading hours I might add), I can't imagine you find the time to trade. But then again, paper trading doesnt require the same efforts :p

LOL, you say 3X the daily range is "impossible" but then say you dont have a clue what is possible :) Honestly, I dont know anyone who can do 3x the daily range everyday but I also will not say its impossible. Because I know and saw a guy trade something similar to Jack's method and he makes...
