No...I was being crass and ranting. I used to be well below then-poverty levels myself, and started from a small account. Sorry if my dry humor didn't get through. So about those lazy poor people who demand that I buy them health care like mine :p

Maybe not. I don't remember (he has been on there for a long time). Usually I add people who are real traders, which are honestly very easy to distinguish. But I'm not stopping my trading because I make lots of money. HurricaneUS, atticus and other recent people I added are excellent...

Below is my buddy list. I have never met any of them, but I saved them because I like to keep an eye out for who is a real trader and rich. I know I am missing allot of others. Although many real traders may lurk at Elite Trader, it appears there are few real traders on this website. By real...

http://ca.news.yahoo.com/mcdonalds-november-restaurant-sales-beat-expectations-130805666--finance.html Could this be an excellent economic indicator? :cool: Mcdonalds had poor earnings recently, and the $1 is helping them out of that. :eek: Does anyone want to share thoughts on QE4...

I could not find a thread on this - any thoughts, discussion about whether S&P (and Fitch, Moody's) may join in and release a downgrade, possibly related to the fiscal cliff/Washington mess? My brain hurts when I try to think about which party wants to go over the cliff, and if they are...

Any thoughts on whether the Fed will tie interests rates to unemployment (instead of a date), and if operation twist will be "extended" to outright purchases? http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2012-12-07/fed-exit-plan-may-be-redrawn-as-assets-near-3-trillion.html...

Obviously you are not an American, and you probably hate America. I saw your other thread, and did not care to comment. But I will just add that you are extremely emotional and show no traits of an excellent trader, and if you think the US (and the world) will not grow - and you want to bet...

Sorry, I was typing on an iPad, it tries to auto correct spelling. I'm not overleveraged, I'm just trying to figure how QE has its effects when it is announced, and how it might affect markets intraday going forward. I pulled out of that drawdown several weeks ago, I was just surprised...

Not true. ETF's are always holdings for other stocks or securities. ETN's even have holdings, although not directly. Buying SPY is buying 500 companies at once. Buying GLD is buying gold. If people use ETF's for longer term trading, this just means more people are on a larger time frame, not...

Hello, Beginning on August 6th (Monday) this year, I experienced a massive two week drawdown with my currency day trading. After the two weeks, everything was back to normal. The pairs involved during the period were any USD, JPY, EUR, GBP and CHF liquid combinations (I won’t bore you and...

Damn, that was brilliant. I third that. Nice solid post and a very playable day. If I'd started a poll that got such disappointing results I'd want to put it aside too.

Shine on Pabst.

I'm happy to have pleased you with my contribution. To bad I can't say the same about yours.

Jesus what a jerk, but at least he's sincere.

The reviews at Barnes and Noble are simply stunning. All two of them. I intend on contacting "a trader from New York" and "a money manager from Los Angeles" as soon as possible to discuss their feelings in greater depth. These two entirely different people should be commended for their helpful...

Pretty much sums up how I feel about his commentary. In trading its near impossible to speak in absolutes, but it seems to me he hardly ever gets too far beyond vague when referring to short term direction. Most of what I've read revolves around the equal debate of cases for longs and shorts...

That is some sad corporate bullshit. Ripping a page right outta the Tradestation/Cruz handbook, huh. That's it, offer lower prices to new prospects who are so obviously more important than the loyal customer base eSignal already has. It's supposed to be the other way around, guys. You know...

Not only does IB's data feed suck when it's actually up and running but it has piss-poor system integrity. The damn thing is always going down. IB is extremely unreliable as a data feed.

What an abusive, opinionated, half-wit. You're right on target there, Mikey.

“thinking that to themselves”… Yup, that pretty much sums up my point.
