Not that I like to take sides in these bull/bear arguments... but whatever happened to Bluestreek? :D

NQ used to be the wild child a few years back, 40 and 50 point swings weren't uncommon. You'll be lucky to get 4 and 5 point swings now. :) It's a subjective thing really but I prefer the way the ES and ER move in comparison to the NQ. Just trade the vehicle you feel most comfortable or...

None, I was just being facetious, sorry.

Trade the NQ? :)

Very succinctly put. :)

A change in trend.

Those who were anticipating a change of trend, I should imagine. :)

Shorting all time highs on an upside breakout? You're brave! :D Still, you could be short for 10 minutes or 10 months for all I know. Good luck. :)

It's a highly competitive arena. And, just like most all competitive arenas, Darwinism rings true in that only the fittest survive. Not everyone can be a great athlete, or own a successful restaurant, or write great music, or be a consistently profitable trader, etc. Some people make...

Bohemian Rhapsody? :)

Take a break, get your head together. You've made money in the past, so you can do it again in the future. As another guy already said, half of your losses came from a property venture and not a market related event. 15% draw down is not a disaster. Draw strength from your cancer...

Quite sad to see this thread murdered and kicked around the floor in such an undignified fashion.

What Trader28 identified in his original posts, almost 300 pages ago now, were simply a set of tools. Raw materials. If you give a chisel and hammer to two different people, one might produce a fine work of carpentry, the other might produce a splintered heap of wood. MS paint is a very...

Trader28 doesn't need to prove anything to you. Stop making a buffoon out of yourself.

Thanks, I've penned it into my diary.

Possible? Yes. Just wait for a run away bull market to begin, and get out before it ends. Easy. :D

That's life. And as funny as it may seem, some people get their kicks, stompin' on a dream. But I don't let it, let it get me down, 'cos this fine old world, it keeps spinnin' around.
