What's not to like ? Here's a start : Be careful about that military stuff. Military does not get us into wars. Your elected leaders (dictator-in-chief ?) does. Ya forgot Illegal immigration.....or not politically correct, Wet Backs. Is it not politically correct to cite "not...

Sound, diversified investments while faced with continued Financial Repression for some years to come. You could call this, "steady as she goes." I would love to hear your comments on the soundness of the PREMISE and of the SELECTIONS the interviewee recommends. If you believe in...

I was looking for a place to post a good piece of media....investment related in a rather diversified way......economically driven (of course).....Bernanke, Central Bank strongly influenced, too..... ...when I came across this thread. I would be making a big, personal mistake by posting any...

PAIR INVESTMENT (not trade) explained and illustrated by recent example: MMC Short CB Long Be advised there is a distinction between Pair Trading and Pair Investing, the latter adding marvelous virtues to the already meritorious reasons for participating in Pairs. Beside the...

I suspect that does not mean Forthright Outstanding Smart

This is worrisome, perhaps, for you Awe (from the same thread): http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=3788221#post3788221 At the very least, possibly compel you to look over the horizon sooner than later to know what you may be facing. I'd hate for you to waste your time...

You are probably referring to this piece of art: http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=3446252#post3446252 I researched to find this for you, Aew, thinking it may move the ball for you. Lots of credit to shooter (above) for referring to emg (but not the thread). Lots of...

QUOTE]Quote from intervention: 1. First paragraph is off subject to this thread and readers would do well to skip it except for Aew who it is directed to in a personal nature. I suppose it best to be sent PM to him, but I leave it for the curious anyway. 2. Second paragraph is only slightly...

There are numerous responses to you, the thread starter, to swing trade. This could be or could not be relevant to you, depending on where you are on the time-in-position willingness. Notice I use the word "willingness." If you are strong headed about consistency in swinging for triples...

Always better to incur successful results like this in a 1 month investment than the two to three months window suggested on Aug 1, 2013. This was not a pair trade. This was a pair INVESTMENT. Please read below if you prefer the comfort of Investment to the requirement of more closely...

Demographics.... I suspect the subject tests one's holistic-ness in the category of Global Macro. I posted some very general notes below about the existence of an easy read series written by the Economist for CNBC. It indeed is world oriented. A primer, I suppose...

It's about time to post here again on the subject. The following DEMOGRAPHICS article is global in nature, fairly broad in scope, but has some gems in it. It is an easy, fast read. Certainly has investment / currency implications. It is a year and half old ! I found it today...

I have been pair trading stocks for a number of years using MY STYLE rather than the more conventional pair trading style. I am not a mathematician, but picked up early in your inquiry why I thought the problem you were having was (1) obvious as you also saw the obvious issue of having two...

I don't think the double entendre of using Spain to make the point was an accident. Anyone check out the quality of life in this country's notable presence in the term PIIGS ? I have good friends there, native to Spain. It ain't pretty. Rather, it is ugly...

Without knowing this firm's mission, strategy, or otherwise getting down into their weeds, I don't have at this point the benefit to analyze it properly. But some basic remarks with respect to the headline material being reported..... As an investor of single family homes over a few decades...

koolaid, you need to post your charts with a smaller size; it currently is awkward for the page you are posting on. I can direct you if you need help. But first, always review your post to make sure you are not outsizing it for the page, please. I only have a laptop now while traveling and I...

The patient and studious are base characteristics to contributing to a higher probability of "making it" IMHO. I would add you must find whatever word you wish to apply to "having sustained joy." If you cease enjoying what you are doing, find something else. "What you are doing" refers...

If you are limiting your thread to professional traders, I will respectfully bow out. Why ETF's ? ...... Just wondering. I tried to look at your index ETF's for charts, but my cloud charting software wasn't available. Maybe servers are down for mtx this time of night. 20 pairs...
