You know, judging from some your other rather 'erotic' posts elswhere, I am not surprised babCOCK has a place of prominence on your shelf.

Art deco, thanks for your recommendation. I purchased this book last week, it is a gem. An oldie but goodie. The chapter on optimization where jack schwager(of mkt wizard fame) debates Robert Pardo is well worth getting this book. PS. In the era of all things electronic and new, I paid $5.95...

This is the promise that priceaction labs holds. I am not a user but perhaps other users can chime in. 1) Michael Harris - trading patterns. http://www.priceactionlab.com/ This essentially mines data looking for price patterns, so if c[0] > c[2] and c[2] > c[1] and c[3] > c[4] ...

The great Ed Seykota has a great line in the market wizards book. His work is all about fixing self-sabotage. "'Win or lose, everybody gets what they want from the market. Some people like to lose, so they win by losing money....'" "In The Trading Tribe, Ed extends his paradoxical...

I believe the interviews were done in 2008 and 2009. I got quite a chuckle when Tableb talked about unpredictability of rare events; he gave an example of a turkey being fed 364 days by a human. The turkey believed that humans were very kind, taking such good care of the turkey. until...

I do a simplified version of the following qigong exercise to ground myself, get away from too much thinking, being in my head all the time as most traders do. http://creativeqigong.blogspot.com/2010/04/belly-or-lower-dan-tien-meditation-for.html

I agree with one poster's comment that ordinary tax accountants know next to nothing about traders tax status. I find Robert Green very informative. One can actually find good examples in their guides to file your own taxes. http://www.greencompany.com/Traders/GuidesCommodites.shtml...

For Nassim Taleb fans like myself, this site has a handful of hour long talks by him. http://fora.tv/2008/02/04/Nassim_Nicholas_Taleb_A_Crazier_Future http://fora.tv/2009/08/18/David_Cameron_in_Conversation_with_Nassim_Taleb

+1 ET indeed has many amazing traders who are generous with their time and in sharing of their knowledge. you among them nodoji.

yes, this talk is full of great insights. The speaker says that in case of a car buying example, when people are given all the voluminous comparative facts about cars, when asked to make a 'rational' decision, they only make the correct decision 45% of the time. only when distracted for about 15...

Thank you for sharing, very informative talk. delayed gratification and pain avoidance are interesting concepts: letting profits runs and taking lots of small losses. The speaker says studies show most people do the opposite, they sell their profitable stocks quickly and hold on to losers...

Pardo's book for sure. both first and second edition. A distant second would be: Trading Risk by Grant and finally Profitability and Systematic Trading by Michael Harris. He also has a number of free papers and ofcourse his software which is worth looking into.

Learn price action trading from the best. However, I would recommend that you don't buy the book, it is a tough read. good luck. http://www.moneyshow.com/video/vidNetwork/playerCustWebcast.asp?vid=D0A7267E5FC64857B4DADE7F0785A9761&OBT_fname=lvot10futuresmag.flv

Good thread. This is a interesting tool that I am considering. http://www.customizedtrading.com/TradeStation_Add_Ons/TradeStation_Backtesting_Strategy "Another application for the TradeStation Strategy Testing Tool is to mark only your discretionary entries and then testing different...

I once saw a amusing bumper sticker, that summed it up pretty good: "Lottery, Tax on the Stupid"

I remember seeing something on TV, people protesting some action by BofA. They had slogans which read: BofA:Bankrobbers of America.
