    The Perpetuated Fraud of Candle Charting

    Mr. Now, I thank you for your thoughtful question, whcih made me think myself. I find myself increasingly beset by short-term memory problems (I pray that it is the alcohol and not the Alzheimer's), so I need to chart on a time scale within which I can function reasonably well. I find that a...

    Trading to Live

    I don't have a choice. It is the only index future I can trade with IB's minimum account deposit. Good thing this is so easy. I was worried about blowing my account. Lotsa people here said that was a serious risk with beginning futures traders. That woulda been a month's Social Security down the...

    Trading to Live

    I am telling this story in retrospect for clarity. So this morning, I sees red, I punches red. I sees blue, I punches blue. Result attached. It IS easy, and Social Security don't care that I made some easy money. If I can make money with that simple system, imagine what I can do if I add some...

    Trading to Live

    Many years ago, a lifetime ago for many, I bought Dr. Alexander Elder's fine first book "Trading for a Living." Little did I realize then that my circumstances would change so drastically for the worse that I would need to be "Trading to Live." Loss of easy mobility led to loss of ease of work...

    Ammo Drought

    Todd, an interesting new perspective on you! I like rifles and shotguns just fine, got almost enough of them (Charlie Wilson: "Too much is not enough!"), but I really love handguns the best. Got more 380's, 9mm's and 357's than I have fingers on my hands. And two more on my trading-pays-for-it...

    Ammo Drought

    Thanks, AyeYo. That's North Texas to outlanders. Have heard Wally Mart is a good place, but not hereabouts. Re online purchases, sometimes "good price" means "they got it." Up by you ProAmmo is good. And just today got some from AmmoToGo, also in Texas like CheaperThanDirt. Tell me what you...

    Gabby, there is. The bigger gun you be packing, the smaller the pistol you be happy carrying.

    Ammo Drought

    No shit? You skeet shoot? I just have shotguns in case the have-nots or want-mores come crashing through the door. Keep a Mossberg Mariner under the bed and an old Winchester 1300 by the trading computer. With shots shell slings on both in case they came with backup. Gotta love double-ought...

    How's that gold buy at $1,200 going?

    I take back whatever ugly I said about you. You're all right. And heavily armed.

    Ammo Drought

    Norte Tejas. I rarely buy in stores. Mostly on line from LuckyGunner, Natchez, CheapAsDirt and Wrigley. There and elsewhere domestic 357 magnum hollowpoint is not to be had, as well as 223 Remington HP. 9MM and 380 auto HP only available in the furrin stuff. Where be you? Didn't I just call you...

    How's that gold buy at $1,200 going?

    We gold bugs endeavor not to buy tops. I bought late this afternoon around 1135 USD. A disturbingly deep pullback, to be sure, but I have absolute confidence in the ability of the Dumocrats to fuck things up even worse.

    Ammo Drought

    You fellow gun nuts out there still experiencing it? I cry every time I shoot old stuff I paid 20 cents a round for. Hardly any dumdums in popular defense calibres to be had anywhere of good ole US manufacture. So from time to time I have been buying foreign shit.

    Daily Hottie

    Another yesterday's hottie. She's three years older than me, but I would still do her. Assuming she would slow down long enogh for me to catch her on crutches.

    Boredom

    Wait until you are an old dog like me. I recently suffered the shock of severely impaired mobility. Now I find that the pain and exertion of simply moving my old ass keeps me glued to the tube with a high level of interest.

    The Perpetuated Fraud of Candle Charting

    Damn, Rasky! You are serious! An excellent error check! I am glad my codes aren't that paranoid. They just tell me what to do and I do it. I have neither the patience nor the attention span to monitor the way you do. With auditory alerts I could trade blind or drunk or both if I had to, which is...

    The Perpetuated Fraud of Candle Charting

    So true. That is why I rag on SCT traders. Due to errors in the raw data stream in fast markets, anywhere from 5 to 15% of volume is underreported by the charting software. If either the bid or the ask is null, and last is at neither, the software drops it from T&S and from counting in volume...

    Yossarian, that is indeed the catch-22 of charting.

    The Perpetuated Fraud of Candle Charting

    The "Get Some Now" was the tolerance: gold, silver, no color. I forget the values.
