    Trading tax software for last minute filers

    I've dealt with the guy there too, he told me he was the owner. I couldn't believe the owner of a company would be so rude and lack any form of customer service. I think it's a one man show. With maybe two employees. Dealing with them makes you feel like you've been ripped off.

    serious concerns for 10:00:01AM (EST) tomorrow Friday...read this

    I've been noticing in the price action this week leaders have been sold during earnings releases, then bought up the next day. Then watching the short squeeze today, you can see a strategy. Big players are getting shorts to load up in the morning after earnings because the companies sold off...

    Who are the real Traders here.

    I think the issue is, who is trading for necessity and who is trading for thrills. I need to be in tune with the market, or I can't feed the people I love. If I get out of sync with the market, I will drop my size first, if I'm still out of sync, I will take time off and reflect. Some people are...

    What's the deal with chart analysis?

    You've got to mix technical analysis with tape reading, market sentiment analysis, economic analysis, a little dose of contrarian analysis, and some basic fundamental knowledge of credit cycles to be able to trade consistently. Using charts alone is 50/50 in my opinion. I use it only as one tool...

    Overleveraged into GOOG/BIDU/RIMM/AAPL/MELI

    You're a little late to the party. These stocks have just had huge gains in the past week. Most likely you will suffer a huge drawdown before the next leg up begins.

    EU to halt the falling dollar?

    I think the Fed is going to pause at the next meeting, that will send a pretty good signal for the big funds to back off the dollar.

    My own personal Goldman Sachs shorting program

    Look at a chart of the S&P versus GS. Very close correlation in this current environment. Short at your own risk, the major short sellers are losing stocks to drive down after this week's earnings. Look at GOOG, AAPL, RIMM, INTC, MER, JPM, lots of stuck shorts. If they can't push down the...

    Trading tax software for last minute filers

    One warning with tradelog, you have to renew the subscription every year in order to keep using the software to edit anything. So even though you bought it, you will have to buy it again every year that you use it. That said, it does what you are asking and adjusts wash sales for you.

    Was It A Pump Day? Will Thursday and/or Friday Be Dump Days?

    I think pump. Reasoning is that the short side was way overcrowded by some big money and needed to be taught a lesson by the Fed. The next one will be the Dollar. But there will be down days coming, just not as violent as in the past because the Fed is trying to stabilize the market even if it...

    Just sold the Euro!

    Why do you post something like this without reasoning behind the trade and possible economics to back it up?

    Review of TraderFeed with Brett Steenbarger

    I've been reading his blog on and off for a year now. I agree that he reveals most of what you really need, to trade successfully as a career.

    biggest prop/con job in market history

    I think there is not much manipulation in the market. It is more about the huge hedge fund short positions betting against the dollar, long commodities, short us equities. As value buyers come in and prop up the market, short sellers feel the squeeze thereby distorting markets that would...

    ESM08 Gap up after hour

    The numbers are cooked limp by the President's working group aka PPT. If you think they are going to release anything ugly, think again. True inflation is very ugly, but gov stats don't tell the truth.

    ESM08 Gap up after hour

    Looks like we're heading alot higher tomorrow especially if JPM blows out the estimates, I know their guidance should be very good considering the gift of BSC they were handed by the Fed. So, financials should pop. If techs can lead here, we can get some good beta money back in the market. $sox...
