    Soon Honda Civics and Corollas will only be for the rich

    Then what do I make money for? Most people spend it on something they enjoy - regardless of whether it depreciates or not. Those piss-ant Smart cars or hybrids don't get that much better gas mileage - let me know when they're getting 100mpg. :D

    Soon Honda Civics and Corollas will only be for the rich

    I have to disagree - I bought my 325i new in early 2005 and it only has the traction control, not the 4 wheel drive. Before I bought it, I thought that I would need the 325xi for the 4 wheel drive, but not once have I spun out during our Chicago winters. My wife can even drive it fine in the...

    Soon Honda Civics and Corollas will only be for the rich

    Life is not just about being prudent in every way. I spend at least 2 hours a day driving, so I might as well enjoy the ride. Driving the Accord is sort of like a bowl of vanilla ice cream - it is not really offensive and gets the job done. Driving a nicely engineered vehicle is like a...

    Soon Honda Civics and Corollas will only be for the rich

    It's a 325i - thought about the xi for the Chicago winters, but it does great without the 4-wheel drive. The Mercedes is the CLK350 convertible. It is the wife's car and she would have preferred BMW, but they didn't offer a standard red color in convertibles last year (only some metallic...

    Soon Honda Civics and Corollas will only be for the rich

    Can't comment on that one - I've got a small boy, so I've got to wait for my mid-life crisis before I get my hands on a 2-door Porsche.

    Soon Honda Civics and Corollas will only be for the rich

    I think you need to put this in context. I have a Honda Accord, BMW, and a Mercedes in my garage right now. If you want something that is enjoyable to drive - the BMW wins hands down. If you want a sofa on wheels and the wind in your hair - the Mercedes (a convertible) is fine. If you want...

    My Goal for 2008: Trading to Trade Well

    Update for week ended 5/16/2008. Mentally better this week and Monday felt real good. But for some reason I was never able to get out of bed on schedule - the alarm would go off at 4:00am and I would just fall right back asleep. So I ended up not playing within my schedule and taking trades...

    My Goal for 2008: Trading to Trade Well

    Update for week ended 5/9/2008. I just couldn't do much right this week in daily life - everything I touched would break and couldn't do even the simplest things properly. It was topped off by having a mustard dispenser spray mustard all over my hand and not my hamburger! :D I wasn't able...

    My Goal for 2008: Trading to Trade Well

    Update for week ended 5/2/2008. I'm happy with the way I acted this week considering it could have been worse. Especially on Wednesday when I did all sorts of things wrong because I just wasn't in the right state of mind - I was adjusting stops without thought, got whipsawed and wouldn't...

    saving IB monthly statements

    Strange problem - make certain not to erase the file extension (e.g. .html, .xls, etc) when you rename the file and do "Save As".

    Pull Downs are the way to trade...... if you've got the big ones

    If your target is 2 pips, at what point are you shitting a bad position? There is nothing wrong with a loser, you just need to be able to take them. Good luck to you.

    Taking $5K to $250K by year end

    I haven't read this entire journal. At least Allen should step up and continue posting since he seems to have caught the attention of many ETers. If you are big enough to start some online journal you should have the balls to follow through.

    FX Most common Chart time-frame

    I prefer 3/9min or 5/15min. The higher timeframe for the direction and the shorter for trades.

    My Goal for 2008: Trading to Trade Well

    Update for week ended 4/18/2008. Wasn't able to get a full week in, but most everything felt good. Nothing exciting to report other than a small earthquake this morning about 250 miles from my home (first time I ever experienced one).Date P/L Pips Range Size W L S...
