yes I think dave goodboy was market surfer for the longest time here, some believe he is still here under a different name -:) well, I think gut feel trading can be deadly if the trader is not free and clear of psychological impediments etc...long story..

I have looked into this quite a bit. Even met Flavia Cymbalista. She actually interviewed the great George Soros... very hard to make it work, can be quite deadly in trading. http://www.tradingmarkets.com/.site/stocks/commentary/satinterview/01312005-42195.cfm "This all seems very...

I guess you were not expecting this type of response to your original thread !. curtis faith fighting for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender peoples rights. maybe this is what he really feels in his gut. as jerry seinfeld would say, 'not that there is anything worg with it' I did buy and...

Finally a good thought provoking thread in the psychology section. Regarding day trading, I find SLOWING myself down helps. I only take 3-4 day trades a day. So in a 7 hour trading day(9:15AM - 4:15PM ET), there are long periods of boredum punchuated by a flurry of activity...I find...

What type of trading do you do, price action or indicator based? volume and some of the other non-time based charts show market action much better and cleaner. some traders tend to benefit from time based charts, they say it shows trading ranges, consolidation and trendlines better. imo...

I thought it was a little disingenuous of Jim Simons to complain about great math teachers going to google or goldman. I mean he employes about 100 phd's, what productive product are they producing, other than making money for the employee owned fund. He raided IBM's speech recognition...

art deco was probably watching porn while doing this test, titilating with excitment he probably got confused. Download is always faster than upload. Faster uploads are for servers and companies who host. Which costs a lot more money.

yes, thank you for posting. His humility really comes through in his speech and q&a. he lists collaboration with other people as a strong point in building systems. for four years I worked in the building across from his manhattan offices. my office window overlooked the 800 third ave...

good post jj. If I may say, this conformity leads to lack of risk taking and creativity. That is why USA has produced Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, Facebook and the list of inovations is endless... I mean I can't even imagine chinese, indian students dropping out of Harvard to start companies like...

use priceline, put in 4 star hotel and a bid of $90. There are thousands of vacant hotel rooms in month of feb in NYC, all around times square where this event is. good luck.

Tiger moms must be doing something right. try to go for a walk on the campus of Harvard, Columbia or any of the Ivy league universities, vast majority of students appear to be chinese or indian or jewish. I believe the stats say 40% of all students enrolled in Ivy league are comprised of these...

Obviously you didn't get the point Al Brooks was trying to make about about WAITING for the right setups. How as traders we get paid to make money and not judged by our ability to execute a large number of trades. I find this thread interesting, it seems to have attracted all the feeble...

Thank you for your valuable post and insight. We have done much to advance the science of TA. Mooning and the buttocks pattern are good editions to other chart pattern gems, like the gartley, bat, butterfly, crab, dead cat bounce, sea horse( I am not making these up, these patterns are all...

Just curious if anyone here trades the buttocks pattern? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buttocks Much like Trading the moon, this pattern is also cyclical in nature. Thanks.

I saw a little snippet of a news conference this morning. This banker standing next to assange. The banker said 45 politicians and many other 'pillars' of society. Unfortunatly when you take on the rich and powerful there are consequnces. Interestingly many rich are also supporting assange...

Mark Cook and Robert Prector have been calling for mkt decline. Goldman Sachs thinks mkt will go UP 20% in 2011. Despite all the bearish sentiment, the mkt just keeps on going UP. I bet if you take a poll of ET members, 80% will say mkt will go down sharply in 2011. mkt rarely does what...

speaking of curtis faith, the turtle trading rules he put together I believe are a must read for anyone starting out. A great primer that covers what should go into designing a mechanical ystem. https://www.bsp-capital.com/documents/turtlerules.pdf

Beware USA indeed. But tell that to the US multi-national corporations who are busy outsourcing jobs and manufacturing plants to the third world. someone should tell that to the American consumers who are happy to shop at walmart and purchase all the cheap crap that China puts out and in the...
