    Bear Market Rally or not....

    The indices are getting a little too pumped here. I would love to see a huge blow off to the upside next week to get some great shorts on. I think after next week, we are going to see a test of the lows into June. I'm not ready to short yet, still a buyer until late next week.

    HAHA. Sometimes you find comedy on ET.

    Wow not many expected that

    Payroll numbers will be very important. NFP. I won't get into the rest here as this thread is not that serious.

    Wow not many expected that

    Friday is going to be fireworks. I hope people aren't buying into this pump. This is time to unload your best performers. I closed 80% of my long positions in the last half hour today. I won't short yet though, but I would not be trying to chase it. I will short sometime around May 7-9 next...

    Relentless Upside Today...

    It's a short squeeze rally, nothing more.

    Need a suggestion on risk/reward setup

    If you're doing a trend following strategy, I think the best profit targets would be to set a bollinger band to 3 standard deviations and take profits when price gets close or above the 3 sigma level.

    Third LIVE call on ET for tomorrow

    You already made a live call earlier today, why double post? That is why I don't think this post should continue to exist. Whoops, this bump puts it back to the top.

    Do we have a trend in place, I just don't see one

    If you lost 50% this month, I find you must be short. The bottom came in the day of the BSC debacle. You have to realize the fed changed the way markets work on that day. As far as the trend, I find the market is in a sideways channel. I think we will get a headfake to the upside next week that...

    This is a tough business, but I still love it

    You are undercapitalized. You need at least 5 grand so you can hold some size for a week or so and not get stopped out on a margin stop. You have to take the big trends to stay in the game in Forex.

    If I fall under 25k on IB, can I trade on other exchanges?

    Buy vix 10 vix options at the open tomorrow and you will be back in the game in no time.

    Yahoo maintains silence on Microsoft deadline

    I can see the setup. Short squeeze day. They are waiting for the right opportunity to hand it to the shorts.

    Trading tax software for last minute filers

    I disagree with you there. You need to report every trade to the IRS and you need to defer wash sales to the next year if you have them. As far as tradelog it does what I need it to, I just hope that management learns that the recent complaints are to get better customer service. The...

    Nice turnaround. One question, are your commissions included in your Month results?

    esignal customer service sucks

    I think what you're asking is a cash symbol for crude futures. The only proxy I know is USO. But it's not calculated at the same price.

    12:28PM: Is She Tired of Bulls and Ready to Hug the Violent Bears?

    The pattern since the fed has been cutting rates is a rally into the meeting.

    Dow transports soaring with skyrocketing fuel costs

    I've noticed a lot of threads trying to understand the current price action. Why are we seeing a huge rally, when the US is teetering on collapse? It boils down to understanding what inflation is, and how it works. Monetary expansion via fiat printing always flows first into the big banks...

    shortest distance per 1 contract to $200 profit per day is...

    I think having a profit target every day is the wrong way to go about it. You take what the market will give you. Some days, you will make a killing and that makes up for the days that are just not trade-able. The key is to be able to capitalize on the days that have the biggest opportunities...

    Do not use tradelog for your taxes

    My case rests. You can see David Eich's arrogant, smug attitude in each of his replies to this thread. The software is convenient and saved me a lot of time, but the interaction with him turned me off.
