I retired early to swing trade full time. From your first question to Lindq I can tell you are not swing trading full time. Focusing on profitability comes second to loss management as a swing trader. It takes new traders years to get the stars out of their eyes to switch from counting...

Yes, the year of the rabbit! It is rabbit – dufus. And I can see that from your 2 whole posts. I was not talking directly about nuclear bombs but the work nuclear (see the next post). I was talking about the nuclear leaks from the reactors. Where have you been. That’s all the news media...

I loved your remark about Christy Whitman. You are right about down-playing the nuclear event initially. But there is always some journalist who’s idle speculation about a politician’s remark that will spark the news debates over how bad the nuclear fall-out will really be. From then...

I am a retired trader born at the end of WWII. But I have vivid childhood memories from the word “nuclear’; especially hiding in school basements waiting for nuclear bombs to be dropped on my town. Events like Three Mile Island and Chernobyl only reinforced these fears. Many people...

Tsunami is bad. But Nuclear is worse. I am a retired trader born at the end of WWII. But I have vivid childhood memories from the word “nuclear’; especially hiding in school basements waiting for nuclear bombs to be dropped on my town. Many people around the world who are older and in...

The circus has begun. Your reaction to nuclear fall-out may be typical of what our press will portray in the coming days. By Monday many people in the western U.S. will be aware of the nuclear fall-out that is coming their way from Japan and will be dumped in their laps. It will be very...

It is always interesting to read what detractors reply to posts on ET. Few have ever asked any of us what made us take on a trade. They just blast away and jeer at us. I am not calling for a big move up or a big move down. I don’t call markets. Though I do monitor markets and trade with a...

Yes, I totally agree with the free money from Bubble Ben. But what I trade off on is dips to the 50 Day MA and my set up trigger. A good example was buying AAPL today.

Yep. I bought the dip also.

The same question is asked of all touts who come to ET. Please post your audited verified results so we may decide what to do with you. I still can’t remember any tout who ever has done this. Will you be the first?

The saying already has changed. It is now “Don’t fight the lunatics…”

Did the opposite. I covered my shorts this morning and went flat.

You were right. I covered alll my shorts this morning.

Not Me. I have been unloading long since 2/14.

Hyperinflation is just one of scenarios that could hit the U.S. There is another possibility that may happen that is bad for the stock market before hyperinflation: According to Keynes, fast growth in demand leads to bottlenecks that prevent supply from keeping up with demand. That leads to...

Zanek, you have got some excellent advice from some of the best traders in business like intradaybill and NoDoji to name just a few on this tread. Once you take their excellent advice you can begin to get your trading to the next level. On the road to the next level you need to learn to build...

Murray, One area I have been interested in the last few years is the international relationship of intermarket analysis. For example: Libor Rates (e.g. overnight, 1 month) to NYSE Financial Index Marine Shipping Index to Asia Index (e.g.CBOE China) There are...

Here's to those who wish us well, and those who don't can go to hell.

Retaildaytrader, I saw your support line weeks ago. But as the last 2 sessions have shown this correction may not be over. In the last two hours on both days the market shot straight down. This is a substantial sign of weakness. IMO these next few days will either make or break your...
