    I confess, I blew out

    When someone admits they were wrong and changes for the better they're ok in my book. Also you can tell a lot about a persons character by the way they respond to the admission. :)

    I confess, I blew out

    Would be interested in hearing what you learned. :) Others probably would be too. IMO one of the first things most traders and investors learn, usually the hard way (I did), is that it isn't wise to "go for it".

    40 Reasons for Gun Control

    If you're a serious hunter or outdoorsman you've got to have your "rig" to get to the good places. It's easier to understand when you're on a rutted overgrown dirt road 20 miles from pavement and it's cold, raining, and getting dark. :) Gods country is cruel and beautiful.

    Pattern Daytrading poll

    Don't know why this keeps coming up. The purpose of the rule, as I understand it, is not to protect the trader (funny how everything always comes back to "me, me, me"), it is to protect the clearing firms. It may or may not be the "real" reason for the rule. The following rule is from the NASD...

    Slow day wot! Personally think this stuff is either nonsense or dangerous. Either way, not interested. With regards to the brain? though, did have an unusual experience once. I SAW music.

    Brain Teasers

    10x=9y 10x-9y=0 also 5(x+y)-50 = 10x so 5x+5y-50=10x 5y-50=5x x=y-10 x-y+10=0 10x-10y+100=0 subtract the bolds ( 10x-9y=0 ) - ( 10x-10y+100=0 ) -y+100=0 y=100 10x=9y=9(100)=900 x=90 5x+5y=5(90)+5(100)=950 subtract the rate deficit 950-(10x5)=900 whew!

    NYSE, here we go again

    It's just the opposite and you know it. In thousands of NASDAQ trades not once have I never gotten filled. In about 50 NYSE trades I haven't gotten filled about 5 times (tradethroughs). Not to mention stepping away. You're a lying SOB. Typical NYSE honesty. :( How's this for a novel idea...

    NYSE, here we go again

    Don't want to get into specifics but I DID get screwed. I've got T&S, etc. and there is no doubt. My broker agrees with me and they're following up. You've got to watch these guys. That's why I prefer NASDAQ.

    NYSE, here we go again

    Placed a limit order this morning to buy 600 sh Because of two years of hard work I had an idea where the bottom might be. Fifteen minutes later the price dropped beneath my offer by 2 pennies and printed about 10 times, which took about a minute and then back up it went. The whole time I'm...

    trading poetry

    Silent sets the sun, On this golden autumn day. As the echo of footsteps on the trading floor, Slowly fade away. As the daylight dims, On the charts with which I play. Now I'm left to ponder, The bucks I made today. :D
