    How Realistic? $50k account, $500 / day

    A Battle of the Titans. Maybe you're both right. If someone trades off of tick charts, that probably isn't scalable. The larger the timeframe, the more scalable. Refer to Marty Schwartz when he tried to start a hedge fund.

    How Realistic? $50k account, $500 / day

    Could be + $500 one day, + $700 day #2, then one day (or week) the sh*t hits the fan and account is wiped out cleaner than the plate at a homeless shelter. For example: http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=239446...

    Short at will!!! Fed won't print until SPX falls "enough." Markets are starting to understand this now. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pp5KlXZIvr0

    Anybody else short US 30 Bond

    Quite possibly. I'd watch for the stock market to keep sliding hard, but the 30 year losing upside momentum, which would be a clue that the buying power is being exhausted. Seems like the case presently, so probably not lot of upside left. From a LT perspective, it is bumping against a...

    Market crash on monday?

    Actually, I think SPX may rise on Monday. Correlated markets suggest this possibility. DAX has strong support at 6000 and has futures held that level despite SPX continued plunge throughout the day. DAX has some tendency to bottom before SPX, such as DAX's bottom in Sept 2011 before SPX bottomed...

    Why the gap down and falling price today?

    I'm more surprised there wasn't another rumor of China buying Spanish bonds, ECB restarting SMP, or QE3 coming very soon. All quiet on that front.

    Anyone else short 30yr bond? Trading all time highs 5/30/12

    Uncle, I hope you're not a leveraged short. Who knows when this freight train will stop its upward trajectory. SPX is on the verge of breaking down from a 2 week trading range led by Germany's DAX. What if 30 yr goes to 155? Where's your uncle point?

    Eur/USD struggling to hold 1.2500. Moment of truth has arrived. Breakdown may be imminent. Headed to 1.2000!?

    Simplicity in TA

    Another interpretation on 5 year charts is the USD index is headed back to 86.00, whereas the Euro/USD is headed back down briefly sub 1.20.

    Facebook buying RIM?

    FB is trying to hire ex-AAPL engineers. If they build a phone, it would be from scratch, not by buying RIMM. http://www.businessinsider.com/facebook-phone-is-a-bad-idea-2012-5
