I have a question, perhaps a stupid one. If a channel MUST? consist of only three traverses and after the third (dominant) one the market MUST? build the next channel, that MUST? consist of three traverses as well, isn't the construction of a channel a redundant one? Edit: What do we need the...

What do you think is happening now to the homeowners, who can not make their mortgage payments to the (former) Lehman?

You answered your own first question. "Free of charge" could hardly happen due to subrogation, even in case of the entity gone bust.

Those are the assets on the banks' balance sheets. More explanation?

We've got a problem, we've got a solution. What else do you need? (certainty???)

Is it really a dilemma? I'm sure you remember the post:"Doing wash trades prior to having losing trades for any reason in the hope category is a good beginning. Making a wash trade a reversal trade is not a bad idea either since this reversal can be washed too if necessary."...

This is a no-brainer, indeed. The market can not move " away from YOU" - the market doesn't even know you exist... Did I already mention that? I like the question Jack praised as an important one.( Do you want to be right, or do you want to be rich?) The market can only move "against" you...

All of the trades were washes. Net = 20 points (Dax). I learned one very important lesson: NEVER PREDICT. Red- sell, Blue- buy orders. Edit: Somehow, the quotation marks by "know" make a hell of a lot more sense...

Ljyoung, thank you for the post. Those discussions you mention would benefit a lot of people, were they easily accessable.;) As far as demoralizing effect is concerned... What do you need washes for? Are you still predicting? If you are in the market on point 1 does it really matter whether...

Can you elaborate on the " main counter"?

Now we are cooking. You are not far away from the most important problem that has to be, can be, but won't be solved. :)

FWIW.

Great article. Thanks.

For those interested in washes. http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=1308086&highlight=losses+AND+small#post1308086

I guess this is the one. http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=1077712&highlight=Crows+Nest#post1077712 PS: Sorry if I'm mistaken (or pom poms)

Thanks. I thought you trade market (orders)? Do you do your limit orders oco then?

Mr_Black, what was a reason (the reasons) for missing? How do you "define" missing ?
