    Women's Sports Transmorgraphying into "Tranny vs. Tranny"

    When the women athletes wise up and boycott events, it will be only "tranny vs. tranny". Who the hell would have any interest in THAT??

    Former fed president gives economy an A+ .....

    And soon the Fed will start cutting rates. That'll mean an economy that is "Super Dooper A+"... if you don't mind the inflation. :(

    which Bitcoin ETF does not hold real BTC?

    You could look into trading MSTR.... long, short, options

    GDP deflator 1.5% vs +2.3% expected (+3.3% prior), ore PCE +2.0% vs +2.0% expected (+2.0% prior)

    Rate cuts at this time will be like throwing gasoline onto a fire for inflation. But it's an election year, you know. :(

    Ahh yes here we goooo yet again. China pumping its markets up just like wallstreet does....

    China has been pumping their markets "non stop" for years... still in the dumps. At some point perhaps they will go overboard with the stimulus to get "things moving", but it's been a "no go" for quite a long time. Suggest caution.

    Dividends with high growth rate versus buying a house

    If you're thinking of buying RE at this time, suggest you wait until the "great smashola" to come when prices will be much lower. In the 2007-2009, downturn... some houses in Detroit were going for $1. The local government wanted people to buy them and pay property taxes. May see something...

    AMP and Teton

    I just got switched over to Teton, so I offer this.... If you're building your ChartBooks from scratch, this does not apply... but if you've already got CQG chartbooks that you want to preserve and not have to rebuild them, you'll want to do this... Go to "edit/Translate Symbols to Current...

    Is average consistent 3 R profit per month realistic?

    No "profit expectations nor projections per month" are realistic... just fantasy and hope. For all trades, you should have a "reason" (either technical/fundamental/news reaction") for a reason to make a bet. Hopefully your reasoning includes a R:R in your mind of 3:1 or better.

    SIPC protection $500k per account

    My info may be old (years ago I was a Principal)... but the way the regs read back then regarding this... "SIPC insurance covered stocks/cash MISSING" from an account... for ANY reason... up to the limits of SIPC coverage.

    AMP could have communicated this better. :(

    AMP and Teton

    Thanks. Good to know. (AMP's message was that we shouldn't trade until they notified customers that problem was fixed.) Too bad I didn't inquire sooner.... are you routing through CQG or Teton?

    AMP and Teton

    Looking like this might be an unfortunate day to be locked out. :(

    Thanks.

    AMP and Teton

    Off topic... CQG has been having routing issues. AMP has asked we do not submit new orders until notified the problem is fixed. It has been >24 hours, so is it fixed? If not, estimate as to when?

    How inflation can re-emerge

    People are getting much higher wages thanks to the inflation. It's baked into the cake unless there is a recession which is severe enough to get people to ask less for their services as an alternative to not having work at all. In the past, the Fed feared a "wage and price spiral". I think...

    How inflation can re-emerge

    Yeah, right. Government/Fed/Powell have been talking "inflation 2-3-5%" when it's been double digit all along... for at least the last 10 years. Still is 10+% in spite of Powell's spew. Lying bastards! (Don't believe it? Just check your "prices paid" for everything YOU have to pay for. Do...

    Tell me some candlestick patterns and their forecasts

    I guess if he wants to sell a book based upon Japanese Candlesticks, perhaps he thought having a more Japanese-sounding name might help? But Datsun was the brand name of Nissan before name change.... ?

    NIO... Do you want to make a play on its future?

    We don't know what the cost of NIO vehicles will be. We don't know if they will put 150kw battery in production models. Toyota has said they have a "900 miles solid-state battery" in the works, but they've not gone "all in" on EVs like others have...
