Why can't you just say: "I think the FED will cut" and give a reason for it, like we all do. Why do you insist to sound like a moron?

Could it be that most of the 'war' traders are ESsers, while most 'go-with-flow- traders are NQ/YM traders? That would be interesting...

Yes, most of them are, so you shouldn't care who they are. Any strategy is better than yours, since you don't have one.

No, I don't think of trading as a war. Because there is no enemy. The only enemy is the trader self. Viewing trading, or anything as a war, will invoke the wrong thinking and make you fight where you should relax. Hmm, I don't even think a good general should view war as a war.

Partial execution in itself is not a problem: you can program the OCA so that only the part number that is executed will be cancelled form the other orders. Re: the MOC, you could try to build an extra condition in the MOC-order, that only submits it when the price goes beyond a certain...

I'm not so sure. These previous attempts failed (for a reason) and they had terrible suffering and yearlong poverty as a result, not to mention the ignition of the next war. If this attempt failles as well, I think the disaster could be even worse.

Create both orders but before transmit open the 'ticket' of the orders. Link both orders into an OCA (One Cancels All) by filling in the same word or letter (make something up) in the identifier field in the OCA box. Then transmit. If the STP is executed the MOC will be cancelled, if not the MOC...

You're an idiot. A rebound always happens, and this one was expected, why else "buy the dips" right? Todays volume on the YM was still very below average compared to the last days. In fact this up-day was just like all other up-days since 10/10, they all had less then average volume. If...

If you are certain the Q will drop you should be -100% delta. So sell the calls. If you are certain it will rise you'd be +100% delta, so sell the puts. If you are not sure, you think it could go either way try to be 0-delta, so sell some puts or buy some calls, or move them to other strikes...

Yeah, but you hate everybody, you're a hater, nothing more.

I'm not sure he will listen to you but I am certain that you are exactly the kind of mindless sheep that he is trying to assure with his stand-up comedian acts about inflation. I guess they did a surrvey and found the ideal target audience to give to their playwright. Not many of the sort here...

Wow, yeah, I think you're right. This is getting ridiculous, it's the foundation under the nation they're playing with! This is worse than communism.

We all know why the Turd only papertrades and only long; he doesn't know how to trade at all.

You shouldn't compare 24" @ 1920x1200 with 2 21" @ 2048x768. Both the 21" should at least be capable of running 1280x1024, so that would make 2560x1024 to compare with. Find a 24" that has that resolution and then compare again. Also remember that 24" is measured across the screen. 2x21" is...

You mean you'd prefer the $ to not be strong either.

No, that's the wrong approach :p . Actually oil isn't getting (much) more expensive but since the dollar is riding to zero and oil is (still) priced in dollars the quoted value has gone up.

Good point. I think this whole rescue fund is all window-dressing and using the right moment to create something that would have been impossible to do at another time. What exactly the real purpose is I don't know either, but it's more political than practical and it smells.

How odd??

This remark intrigues me. By 'meat' are you refering to the discussion that it is better/worse to short ATM straddles that OTM strangles? Could you explain your view somewhat? Is it just a feeling, how do you compare?
