Looks like they held the line again today--If they could just find some more buyers.

Good commentary on the current oil crisis: http://www.financialsense.com/Market/commentary.htm Excellent website pointed out to me today by someone on another thread.

Scalping would be tough if they shaved 1-2 points out of the blocks. One of the two services has to be lagging.

Will we get a good bounce after today? From the charts it looks like today we touched support (thanks to the PPT I believe), and the market should pop up again fulfilling the January effect. If not things don't look pretty.

Probably the IP of the router if you have one. I use TWS with Zonealarm and it works fine without any special setup.

I think its the big picture, not just housing. The government keeps stepping on the balloon and the bulge shifts to the area of least resistance. With consumers leveraged to the hilt, interest rates at their lowest point, US consumers driving the whole world economy--but having their jobs...

I hope nobody is trying to short this market (beyond a few minutes) :D

I knew they would come in and support the market soon. Was able to cover my shorts with a small profit assuming this. This is too obvious--key points defended on high volume. They can only prolong the inevitable so long. Just didn't have the guts to go long :( (I know, I know, we are...

Stock prices and Money have a direct relationship. More money spent means more demand chasing the same number of stocks, thus driving the prices higher.

I thought it was just technical, but guess the news is helpful sometimes. No movement for an hour and then a pick-up in selling. Easy money. :D

I think "parlaying" your bet is the way to go. Just as previous posters alluded to, when you are up one cycle, move stops to breakeven. You are then letting your original bet ride, plus your current profit. You then take what you get, possibly 2-6 times your original bet or breakeven. In the...

I'll bet 2003 will have a 10 point average range in the S&P and 20 in the Nasdaq, requiring tweaking of methodologies to make money. While the rewards may subside, so will the risks, so it will be a matter of adjusting your bets, and cranking it up a bit.

Put the roll of coins in your palm and punch yourself repeatedly. :D Good stuff man! Quarters might work better though. It's a personal preference. :D

Taking partials is all psychology and doesn't improve results IMO. For every smaller profit you save before a reversal, you lose on a good pop by not having a full load.

That cracks me up!!! Humor is best when most is left to the imagination. :p

What would freud say about that comment?? hmmm

I think you meant to post next door at the "other" forum.

Is FPC doing another skit here?

Yes, this journal could unknowingly get people to open a $5,000 futures account to get rich quick. We all know what will happen in reality. I do believe what he does is possible, because I trade the same way, but I make a few more mistakes trying to "feel-out" the trends.

Yes Draxon, we hate successful journals. You better shut it down and quit making us feel so impotent. Why not include a screen shot of your execution summary each day to silence the critics? I actually enjoy your journal, keep it up.
