...and I was being sarcastic. JT

Hey! that is not true. I saw a story last night on Fox news and.... Next you will be telling me that elections and politicians are bought and sold like live cattle. :D JT

I have noticed that the search feature could be a bit more robust generally. searching for posts with attachments would be a great one. Also searching for phrases would rock and IMO reduce a lot of redudant threads being started. I find that if I search for something for a while and...

Sorry guys this is a "eureka" moment for me...... When I first started trading I made a Moebius strip out of paper and I used to play with it while I was watching the intraday stuff. I knew that there was a connection somehow! Today I finally figured it out. If you don't know what it...

I just realized that when I spent all that time looking for a fractal generator I focused on price formations -- but price formations are only a derivative of the activity. I was looking for order in the wrong place -- the real meat.. the generator is accumulation and distribution...

The first thing that really grabbed my attention when I started studying the markets was its fractal nature... but I could not get my head wrapped around the ftactal generator making everything go. After reading Jack's stuff (and I think SCT is at the heart of *all* of it... rockets...

My wife used to get that adware crap on her computer all the time. She had intellifind amongst many others. I used Spybot Search and Destroy on her machine and she hasn't had trouble since. http://www.safer-networking.org/ Be sure to use the update feature and immunize features...

Correct me if I'm wrong but I know your persistency concept as "regression to the mean" -- in other words... coin flipping regresses to 50/50 even if you have a hot start of 10 heads or 10 tails. So what you are saying is that a noticable run up or down in price is simply a deviation...

Exactly why I'm here! JT

You prolly have 2 hard drives and some sort of CD/DVD drive. Take a look at the cable going to your optical drive... it should have an open connector on it. Try temporarily connecting your 2nd hard drive to this open connector (leave the optical drive plugged in too) -- if your computer...

and not only your financial ones. You have to look at your skills and all of your goals and find the best fit. For many of us it's trading. For others it's corporate -- for others it's starting a biz -- for others it's flipping burgers. If you are surprised that a job offering...

An observation given the equities markets as of late... When I first started trading -- I wasn't at all hesitant to sell into a rally or buy a decline thinking "this is as far as it can go" .. then "now this .. this is as far as it can go" -- and so on and so on. Sometimes I would give...

I'm with murray t on the S&P... it looks like prices spilled out through the downward trend channel that's been going on for the last few days. Look for rising prices confirmed with volume next week. However -- if S is found I personally don't think prices will rally with the same vigor...

Just click complain or ignore on his posts.

Been there at least once in the last 2 years. I eliminated that problem when I: 1) Recognized what I did (which you have clearly). 2) Made a mental note of my emotional state leading up to and during all the bad/out of control trades. 3) Visualized how I would react when those feelings...

I love that feature. Once I learned about it - it alleviated at least one intraday trading stress.... it really is pretty effective when you start getting lagged or just booted (man I hate when everything goes gray!). Until now I've only used Qcharts for NYSE equities and the emini...

For other seekers 1) the roll date is the trading day preceding the second Friday of the expiration month. 2) No. 3) See archangel's response. 4) inital margin is 2K (!!). Talk about a loaded bazooka. J

Could someone point me to a thread or answer a few basic questions about emini trading using qcharts/IB. 1) Super basic - when do you start trading the next expiring contract i.e. when do you switch from 04H to 04M? 2) Do I need to add a data subscription on IB to get RT quotes? 3) I...

If you have the patience to learn from the top down I suggest studying "Technical Analysis of Stock Trends" by Edwards and Magee. It will lay a nice groundwork of understanding for you. J

*click* goes the lightswitch. I look for big groups because I think of them being in control because they essentially dam up prices -- which is really just a different way to mentally organize the information. Thinking of it your way I think may cast some light on other ideas. btw...
