Your right. Trading is most certainly gambling. Your wrong. If I trade managed accounts the service my trading renders is a superior return to an index fund. Hopefully anyway. :)

The guy who trained me as a trader used to say "if its to easy to short then it ain't worth being short"...so true. When they are lifting your offers like water you better cover and go long.....

Yes. I position size according to my distance from my stop. My initial stop is 3 times 63 day ATR. So if I risk $500 per trade and my initial stop is 9 point away I get 55.55 shares..i`ll round it down. I am sure my broker hates me.......but it works for me.

I`ll start us off....:)

LMAO.....The street is sooooo smallllll

In my opinion anybody who knocks the open outcry system has never traded size in thin names. Trading thin NY stocks are a pleasure compared to issues of the same daily avg vol on the Naz. I have had the spec flash me size when he knows I am trying to do something..I shit you not. When they see...

Kind of an interesting divergence here. Any ag traders have any thoughts?

Yeah, even though I pretty much swing. I am still a huge fan of multiple time frame. Thanks

Thats Hot! Is that Trade ideas? Can you also add a little 15 or 5 minute chart next to the higher time frames?

First off when anybody asks you what you do for a living chances are they want to tell you what they do. Ego! And unless they donate 100% of their time to charity or the church I would promptly tell them to fuck off if they had an issue...nobody works for free. Bottom line is who cares...
