    Day trading on the side

    This is NOT trading. this is more or less just a "Gambling Habit". Sounds like you are not looking to gain anything, but just need the action of the trades. Get more relaxed and SLOW down your trading. Over-trading will do nothing but lose in the long run. You need to be able to get 1 or 2...

    Higher Minimum Wage Coming Soon

    Don't look for this to happen in Gaum, where Pelosi's husband has considerable investments. She blocked it the last time for that area, so not to affect her own pocket.

    He'll be pardoned at the end of Obama's term....... Why not...? Holder pushed hard for the Mark Rich pardon that Clinton gave out in his last days. Wonder how much went to the politicians pockets over the years?

    Fibonacci

    Another Day.... Another Fib extention setup...(entry and exit) Another profit... It's just a tool...like stochlastics, RSI, MACD..but it is predictable on where it will be going to. Enough said on this...

    Fibonacci

    Fibs are only a TOOL!. Use what works. It may be "Self Fullfilling", but if it gives you a target to enter and exit (like I use it for) and I can make any profit, why rock the boat?

    No Fantasy - ES Scalping Reality

    Would hope I would.. Another 2 trades today for $350 total. I do have my own simple rules on when to trade and when to NOT trade. (yes. There may not be a trade on some days). I have to be comfortable with the trade entry and where I am going to exit, BEFORE I execute it.

    AP Sources: GM to sell Saturn brand to Penske

    I have owned 2. Bought a NEW 92 SL2 (second year for company), and Leased 2006 VUE. Only complaint was that parts were hard to find for the first one. Had to go to the dealer instead of Autozone. Pricing and Dealer service was always great.

    2 ESM09 trades today, both profitable... (+$150 each for 10 min time). $4 buck RT is sure better the $14 buck PER SIDE for an option play.

    DMI/ADX consistently works

    Just use it for an entry. I would sugguest to exit using the Fib Extentions (161.8 or 261.8) using your Entry point / Stoploss level as the 0% and 100% points. Exit when the Ext. are hit.
