Reaver, who are you refering to?

Same thing here. Latest update was taking an eternity to update and load charts. Have likewise uninstalled and installed the 11/03 version which is a real improvement. However, agree with last post and feel an update should be an improvement on performance and not retrograde. I like Ensign for...

What has science got to do with greed and fear?

Whispers in the ear, "go on, look at all the money there is to be had out there. Just reach out and grab it. It's for the taking...yadda, yadda. It's the devil of a business. Far too easy to get into, like writing. All great writers are self taught, they have never gone on a writing course. They...

Holding currency for weeks/ months will work anything shorter is suicide. Forget all the candlestick crap what is the economy doing?is the currency being bought? And what are other currencies doing in relation to it. INVEST in currrency.

Trading is a sterile, mindless, exploitative endeavour where selfish aquisitiveness can make you a winner. Life should be about love. The only thing it has going for it is the need for courage. A great manly and noble trait. But men cannot be men just staring at a screen all day. It appeals to...

Perhaps orthadox TA is simply a way of pinpointing 'dark pools'. Our faith should be heterodox not orthodox otherwise we are the exploited masses. The gullible who believe that if we are good and respectful we will be rewarded. In this way TA can be a crutch like religion. Without sounding like...

What is that assertion, "the little man simply provides liquidity for the real money". Here's an idea: the big boys use TA to get the best entries because they know where the 'liquidity' is lurking. Jesus, just look at the balance sheets of the leviathons, I hate the fact but they will always be...

You're thinking of the great masturbator Diogenes, who would alarm the passers by in Athens. Socrates had a single regret on his deathbed, that he still owed a friend a chicken, hence the allusion. I thought it would be nice to reunite them in the eternal sphere: Socrates and his bird.

Socrates, the immortal, watches from his tree stump up on mount parnassus, stroking his chicken, among the gods, and chuckles to himself "they're still at it after all these centuries!"

Depression is a natural state for man. When we think we have to be happy in this world of transient pleasure we get into trouble. Nothing is true. Nothing really matters. Man naked and alone. Get a good woman (looks go quickly and do not matter), a dog and some fine wine. Find a great view away...

...flip a coin.. that's just plain too easy!

A gleaming cut throat razor of a bitch. Like so many delicious vamps just giving you that steamy look and thinking of whats in your wallet.:)

50/50's not bad, eh?

Another potential killer is using tiny time frames. Beginners are ever mindful of the value of a single tick, often far too much leverage. Combine this with choppy and wild and you've got some shit scared consistent losers. A crazy game. Better to pull back and loosen things up. listen to some...

Thanks Reaver. Yes, I think the next few months will be interesting. Perhaps need for extra dilligence.

Yes. I'm thinking in terms of position/ swing trading, so days/weeks.

Anyone out there seriously worried about holding longer term OTC cash positions in light of the current credit anxiety?

Anyone for Fight Club, gentlemen?
