    The exception might be that a good trader gets terminally bored babysitting a winning trade and longs for someone to abuse. Look at position trading. I check my porfolio twice a day. Leaves lots of room to bullshit. Intraday I lose two trades out of three, usually early in the day. So I drink...

    That's EasySignal efs code. But I can't take credit for it. Professor Joe Doaks did it. Took him the better part of a week. After that I stopped paying him by the hour.

    I often see people post here advocating the latter. I suspect that they are delusional. And I know for certain they will soon deplete their accounts. There is no excuse for trading a low reward-to-risk system. In my opinion it probably isn't even a robust system. I don't trade anything less than...

    That indeed is a condomnundrum. I was not aware that you were now watching such fast charts. But I approve. All the action takes place on those time scales. Anyone who doubts S&R need only go there for a day. But if you are tempted to trade faster, I suggest interpolation between ticks.

    What about this is funny? I have children older than you. And they show about as much respect.

    Is a dilema less serious than a dilemma? I myself have women problems which I call dilemmamas. Should you get a new bicycle? Should you get a new wife or girlfriend? You will get far less in trade-in for either than is worth the trouble. So I say, get a new one and keep the old one. Sometimes a...

    ALL ET threads are joke threads. And if I joke, please understand that it is gallows humor. I do not trade automated, because Bitch EasySignal keeps promising to support it. Like my wife keeps promising me a blowjob. I do trade systematically with manual entry and exit. I trade five systems...

    Ah, yes, I will be there. But only if you and RT come. Just look for a shrivelled up smelly old prune with a glass of cheap champagne in each hand and two refills set up on the table. What works intraday? That is an IQ test. I cannot trade range bound days, although some people here insist...

    This persona is just one in a long string of handle changes to evade embarassment. I have actually been here since '01, I think. I should think that it would be patently obvious that in person I am unbearably obnoxious. Most old people are. The answer to all of your questions is simple. Yes...

    You are so cruel! Over 44 years of investing and position trading? Indubitably ah does make money. But futures trading? I may not live long enough to break even. But, shit! If not trading I would have pissed it away on other things. Slow horses and fast women. I started position trading again...

    I position traded profitably in the late 90's. I know, I know, EVERYBODY was a genius then. After the crash I started swing trading. A disaster. Then about '01 I started trading futures. It is truly amazing how smart I thought I was and how much money I lost. But no more than the average schmuck...

    What do you do when you have opened a trade?

    I verbally abuse price. If long: "Come on you lazy bitch! Get up and move your fat ass!" If short: "Get down on your knees, bitch, and go down on me!"

    I am a dying man (as are we all, but at my age death is no longer optional). So I feel compelled to pay back to the ET community everything I have learned from it over the past decade (does that remind you of the one-liner "If you gave him an enema, you could bury him in a thimble"?). I change...

    You are too young to have heard Ogden Nash's doggerel verse: "Higamous, hogamous. Women are monogamous. Hogamous, higamous, men are polygamous." Now you know.

    small trader gets wiped out

    I guesstimate that the SHTF scenario is only about 5% likely in my lifetime, which is a very short prospect. So that's about the percentage of resources I devote to it (the scenario and the gold/silver). Along the tortuous path to SHTF, though, it may have its uses. Once in SHTF, I agree with...

    I am humbled by your good grace. I will now slither back into my deep dark antisocial hole. I thought there was only one way to trade.

    Tick Chart vs Minute Chart

    Oh, Proffie, once again you teach me not to disagree with you. You are way to smart, or perhaps too facile, for me. But, fool that I am, I will forge ahead. In my own trading, I rarely see "imbalance." Every buyer has a seller, and versa vicey. The net position during the day, long or short, is...
