In 42years you expect the markets to be lower than they are today??? PEACE and good-trading, Commisso

Tgregg, I admit that I can be very slow at times, but what EXACTLY is the point you are trying get across with this thread??? PEACE and good-trading, Commisso

P2, Thanks for your thoughts on the subject. I only directed the question toward you becuase I felt you would have more insight being that you manage a hedgefund and are required to report DD's to your investors... PEACE and good-trading, Commisso

WOW you can connect to IRC on this thing as well!!!! Thanks again Mark :)

MarkB, Thanks a million :D Trillian looks like just what I need! PEACE and good-trading, Commisso

Can someone please point me in the direction of an IM (instant messenger) that will allow me to communicate with people using various IM's such as yahoo, aol, paltalk, etc., etc., all from the same IM??? TIA PEACE and good-trading, Commisso

Not for anything Inandlong, but this exercise is one of futility. Since when has this game been about being 'right' or 'wrong' on a micro-level??? What worked on this particular play is not necessarily the right way to play this exact set-up played out 100 times... In addition there are a 100...

One of the truest things I have heard said on these boards in the last 4 years... Unfortunately many will try desperately and in vain to avoid the other half of the coin... Like constantly turning left to avoid their rights, they run in circles... Funny how you take the time to help kay and...

Thanks for the 'heads-up', but I am only managing one large account for one person (actually a corporation)... We will see how it goes... PEACE and good-trading, Commisso

Allen, Icos is one that is in my biotek universe of stocks that I follow. Tommorrow might be a nice low risk / high reward entry on the short side as it bumps into prior support, "fueled" gap resistance, and flirts with the 38-50% retracement of the swan dive lower. Depending on the overall...

Jesus that sounds like something I would have said to another :p Good one my friend! PEACE and good-trading, Commisso

Nice to see you old one :) ironically I was just going to send you a pm saying that it was nice to see you back on the boards posting and then bam here you are. I literally just before checking this post added you to my new buddy list... For the most part our feelings on DD analysis are...

Boast not thyself of today for thou never knoweth what a day may bring... :p

Tri, So nice to hear from you :) Yes I did see that thread and thank you very much for the kind words. Nice to hear that my ramblings and rants affected some others in a positive way. Hope all is well with you and yours (your trading too of course)! Commisso

The book is called Techniques of Tape Reading by Vadym Graifer, Christopher Schumacher and can be purchased from amazon http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0071414908/qid=1061338821/sr=2-1/ref=sr_2_1/104-5553246-3391164 The reality crew www.realitytrader.com is way too classy to push...

Thanks Peter! This is exactly the type of thing I was looking for with this thread. "Risk of Ruin" measurement indeed sounds interesting and after all these years has totally managed to escape my limited realm of imagination :) Do you happen to have any links or know of any resources where I...

Nice to hear from you Chris! Hope all is well in Reality land :D I picked up Vad's book the other day, but have yet to read it -- I hear you guys both did a great job though... Say hello to the rest of the gang for me, especialy Bo and Vad :) PEACE and good-trading, Commisso

How come when some applehead starts a thread about avg 6 pts per day on the ES, it gets a thousand replies, but when someone wants to discuss measuring and analyzing DD's it gets zilch??? Makes a young man wonder :confused: PEACE and good-trading, Commisso

I was wondering what sort of measurements you guys (especially those that are or have traded other peoples money, such as P2, MarketSurfer, and Aarron) use when doing a Drawdown Analysis of your accounts??? I have traded my own capital for years and have always used a very basic DD analysis...
