    What Works in Trading & Why: Part I

    Baron and Others I must say I view this as a VERY CONSTRUCTIVE beginning to the improvement of this site. Also, I, and I suspect many others, would be a much more frequent viewer and contributer to the forums (threads) if they were not so frequently HIGH JACKED (often by the same...

    Poker and the Beginning Trader

    I would suspect just about any of us dickheads with reasonable success at both.:D :D P.S. and I really don't excuse you profanity, as I see no excuse for it. But, I could be wrong.

    Fearless trading

    I couldn't agree more!!!! I haven't seen any book that I think would help most traders more than this single book. Any trader who hasn't read (no, I should say "STUDIED") it, I believe is making a huge mistake. It is required reading for any traders I work with.

    Predicting randomness

    Science I must say there is a huge difference in using "would" or "may or might". As I said before I miss used "would" in my attempt at diplomacy to avoid this type of discussion with the thread starter. What appears (or is universally considered) impossible today MAY or MIGHT be...

    Science Trader Although we aren't specifically referring to heat transfer or gases, there sure is a lot of HOT air on these boards. :D :D Note that you do not see CONSISTENTLY make money in that part of my post. Actually, what I really meant was that if the markets were random...

    Predicting randomness

    Making Money If the market were random it would be possible to make money with proper risk management and trade sizing. In a non random market with this same risk management the sky is the limit. It really comes down to TRUTH (reality) as UNIVERSAL truth more and more approaches...

    Opinions

    Joeythebull Generally to make money with buying options you need to be very selective in timing your entry. With the recent run up and this being Friday, I would be very cautious buying calls. See attached chart of the S&P. Don't fight the TIDE or join it late in the week...

    Predicting randomness

    OH SO TRUE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It is so laughable to me how little the RANDOM WALKERS understand about developing or setting up an accurate study of market information. Sometime, when I get the time, I will write a book (with my market formula(s) that will dispel the myths. In the mean...

    My Options Play

    Optionpro007 & Others I believe the AAPL analysis by cnms2 is very good. As he very accurately points out, it is very important to keep an eye on your risk reward ratios as well as your total risk. I have found my options approach to be very successful over a number of years. Although...
