    True Scary Stories

    It was the TA witch. Just like TA she lures you from afar with her tidiness and beauty. However, once you investigate closer she is anything but. Legend has it that she seeks out wannabe traders who secretly use TA and denigrate others for doing the same.

    Dude, the other day you got caught with your pants down watching 5 minute bars on a price chart. You enjoy pulling your own chain.

    I'm not understand you, Surfdaddy. Are you trading off 5 min bars? I thought you didn't use charts?? Clearly the stock DID spend over 5 minutes below 609 as the 1m bars show. That period may have overlapped two consecutive 5m bars which is why your chart doesn't show a single 5m bar completely...

    It's hard to tell anything from your chart. Your squiggly TA indicators are distracting. :D

    I'm not following you. Did you post a chart of this? And what's with the "channel"? I thought you don't use TA. Or is using a channel not TA in your book?

    Surfy, I'm glad you enjoyed reading about my personal issue. Just leave me out of the TA/not TA debate. For me, trading without charts is like walking in complete darkness. I may be able to feel my way along, but I would rather see what's coming up ahead. Is using charts TA or not TA according...

    The comparison of salaries from jobs with what the market makes available is misplaced. In trading the relevant comparison is what the trader was able to extract versus what the market offered. The former will always be less than the latter. "Significant drawdowns" always matter regardless...

    When I first got interested in the stock market there was no internet and therefore no internet resources. I knew stockbrokers but no traders. I did read voraciously, however. As an always broke college student, it took me a while to save and open my first discount brokerage account. I can't...

    Since I have you pegged as a smart cookie, I am somewhat surprised you cannot see that an instruction can be both specific and yet arbitrary at the same. Your entry instructions are very specific and clear to understand. The arbitrariness I was referring to is in their result. I compared the...

    Ah, so it was a joke that will have your followers going to the bank. No doubt to wire more money into their trading account. I think the punchline is you so confidently state your arbitrary entry rule like it's worth something while leaving as "homework" the things that matter more to a...

    Of course online poker is illegal in this country. Currently in the U.S., PokerStars is no more legitimate than any other online poker site regardless of how you want to spin it. You even state yourself that "tricky "legislation got passed. What is there to dispute? Now, if you're asking for...

    Is this a joke? I'm unfamiliar with your sense of humor so I really can't tell.
