    Most traders will tell you that the secret to picking tops and bottoms is a combination of market experience and feel. No technical indicators can tell you exactly where it will be. If the market is selling aggressively intraday but longer term the trend is up and you get very oversold...

    wow I am glad I live in the UK. At least here if you are sick you get treated. Many good things about the US but health care aint one of them. You get these huge bills when you are least able to pay and cannot work , sounds like a fair system to me!

    A gift. Thank me after you get rich.

    I seem to remember another Nobel (well not really a proper Nobel for economics because there actually is not one as it is not a proper science) doing not so well at LTCM. I guess being a professor is not the same as being a trader and the results bare this out. It is no surprise to me that after...
