I agree, although we are back to the same total number of people working, the demographic bomb is going off. I will add though that the attitudes of gen z and the younger cohort are not exactly encouraging. Parents and schools are failing

very misleading graphic, averaging over trumps whole presidency includes initial covid shutdown. without that likely he would have the best or close to best average

Back in the days of yore there were so many system sellers that a newsletter was out called Club 3000, because for some reason the cost was clustered around $3000. They hawked algos that traded every which way and there was a rag that forward tested some of the most popular, and (surprise, lol)...

can I get the 3 sentence version of destriero's career? I blew up young, 9-5 isn't that bad in some careers and sometimes it was more fun than trading, try and be positive or it won't just be your hair that is your only health problem

It was a theory chucked out by someone I cannot remember, but the idea is you have to remove the scaling labels and then check it out. So sure daily has bigger absolute range but its 'character' if you will 'looks' like any other time frame if you remove absolute scaling. Again, I disagree but...

Long ago I looked at the idea that OHLC bar price charts are scale invariant, or fractal-like in nature. That means you cannot tell the difference between a 1 minute chart and a daily just by looking at them and seeing any distinct differences. Not true in my observations, like all things in the...

I am new here too. I appreciate your comment but there are a few worthwhile posts here and there, just for the sake of showing me something I didn't think about. Mostly though this is entertainment, I know better than to think I can just log into a trader forum and become some sort of super trader.

agree, what is his deal anyway, is he selling something?

I agree with destriero, Soy that was not a good call, how about redeeming yourself by making a call right now for tomorrow before Amazon and Apple report?

Half the population votes republican, to me they represent a shield against the asshole progressives. The only rational thing to do is be independent and never join a party, which is basically the same as a cult nowadays. So speaking of the progressive cult, just how in the hell any real trader...

Exactly why we need to devolve federal power back to the states, then we can all choose under what type of government to live within reason. The supreme court had it right, let each state choose as politics is way better at the local level where power hungry jerks cannot turn complicated issues...

Katie Porter - a fucking attorney telling others they make too much money, I don't need to know much else

whoops yes! I meant the other 2018 'scandal' anyway, it is still nothing, just as it is when Apple has an iPhone monopoly and OPEC tries to raise prices. At the end of the day they end up hurting themselves if they raise it way above a demand equilibrium, as would happen to any trader trying to...

Attempts at price hikes can only occur in the right environment. OPEC can hardly raise prices if the US floods the market for example. It was well known to all, except you apparently, that bitcoin miners were driving up processor prices pre-covid. And you are calling me out for not knowing...

Very interesting background, I had a Chinese friend a while back who said the same thing, American leftists were reminding him of the cultural revolution. Western Marxism is a neat trick isn't it? Get people living an otherwise comfortable life to hate Apple for making profit off selling...

so what? any seller sells higher if they can BTW, highest growth in M2 in the last 100 years, who did that? How about M1, who did that?

Right, the buyer at the high transaction price should be equally to blame, how dare they price me out. Somebody above mentioned DRAM price, however bitcoin miners and traders were part of the demand spike yet they get spared the indignation - no logic except for hatred of corporations. Just came...

You mean producers try and sell high just like us traders? gee who would have guessed, we must all be bad folks Unions, OPEC, and Apple all try and fix prices at higher levels, so are they gougers? put a number on gouging- assign a profit margin that is too high so that you can label them...

yeah I don't get the anti-starbucks thing, they charge that because some people will pay it, and so what. McDonalds large coffee is $1.50 and home brewed is pennies, or don't drink coffee at all.

You can still find deals that are reasonable, there is no such thing as gouging in a free market. I supposed farmers are now 'gouging' you because grain prices went up, right? Yes, there are some ridiculous prices, so I generally don't buy the item. Airport or hotel pricing for example, the...
