Well, I am learning! It appears US MF`s only allow a max of 30% shorting, which handicaps the performance. I dont want a hedge fund since they appear to be the wild west without a sherriff. So it is maybe Canada or an offshore base ie BVI, Panama etc. If this thread can grow legs it...

Comon guys, I thought that you would all be a font of knowledge on this subject

Thank you kicking, I will follow up

Thank you Elit and zft, I will follow through on your comments. Is there anything more that you could kindly add to improve my homework?

I am looking to reduce my cash position and am considering placing some of it with managed funds. Since I have never used MF before I would appreciate some assistance. However, here is where my thinking is so far. No stellar performances. Rather I need a smooth equity curve. The funds...

I could not agree less with you. IMHO, B1S1 is trying to draw out trader´s opinions and successfully so as he drew out yours.

Sitting at the pp for today 1373.44 You get the s& r points bunched up like this and it needs a big shove

Back to todays session open with the session high 3 points above = mucho resistance. The longs need serious grunt to punch thru

Dont knock yourself out mmm. Just watch the battles at the s&r points. There was some hesitation at 64 about 3 days ago but it didnt seem important to me

This morning the delta swung down to -25k and so business on the bid out performed business on the ask by this amount. Now we are at +7k as we move into the afternoon rally. Forget buyers and sellers as they are always equal ... they must be since every traded contract requires one of each...

Not really. I am 6´7" if that helps!!

We could swap! I have a copy of The Disciplined Dog, badly mauled by a frustrated Trader.

I have not read all 10 pages of this thread and I imagine that this has been stated many many times before. "Be smart enough to change that which is within your means to change. Be smart enough to let go that which is beyond your means to change. And allow God to make you smart enough to...

It is a thinking man´s world 101. No need to apologise

The Malvinas!

As I said, you must believe whatever makes you comfortable and learn live with the outcome. Careful with the analogies. Hindus, Mayans and Babylonians are seperately credited with the invention of the zero, without which the operating system of my british invented computor would fail to...

Two things might help immensely with your account security. 1 ... issue a broker instruction that account funds must only be credited to a pre nominated bank account ( namely yours) 2 ... Any transfer of funds must be initiated by fax only, never email, and using a pre set code which is...
