You have loose bolts and nutts in your thinking. Why you do not go to a farm to take care of the herd, milk the cows, be a shepard or something like that? You do not seem to be cut for discussing such topics. What do you know about thinking and things you cannot see with a naked eye. Where...

The math stuff was aimed at readers who think they are above anyone else or would doubt too much what I stated, so that they factually understand that I have teeth. You seem to have gotten that point, and my objective was met. Assuming your own system of beliefs regarding what can and...

She seems to be getting ready to reverse (RUT). If it finishes in red today, and she told me so at around 2:00PM, low of today will be taken out tomorrow and high of today would be the resistance. If some jump up takes place tomorrow, then I will view it as a possible fake, and short it when I...

The future cash flow is the same, but it has a new owner. The new owner is purchasing the same cash flow that was priced higher in the past, but at a lower price. The difference in price is what they declared as loss. The cash that is lost will appear in the account of the new owner but in the...

Wait for the market to short itself, and then short it. Do not try to pull the horse, just ride it when it heads your direction. Let others do the pulling for you.

Here is a correlation. If you are a fun of either team, do not trade tomorrow. Why? It is likely that you may not feel very good or you will feel invincible after the game--- either way, this sentiment is a good fuel for the market to consum!

You do not understand spreading.

You do not get it. Insurances are smart, people who bought houses are smart. Who are the idiots: the stock (bag) holders (as a whole) of bond insurances and mortgage stocks. If you do not think so, check the charts. Smart stock traders do similar to was suggested: buy convertible bond (high...

Here is what I would do. I would take the response of a large number of 100 people among those who make prediction part of their profession (such as this forum). Here is when you should buy: When 80 to 90% of the people tell you do not buy, then buy. That is the only time you are will make a...

One should not confuse not paid in dollars with not paid! If he is paid an equivalent to a regular compensation in non-dollars, then the man is getting a 50% pay raise! Why? A non-cash compensation is not taxable now (with 33% tax bracket, he is getting 50% more of spendable money. Uncle sam...

I agree with you. Go PATS!

I have bee making money recently shorting the EUR/USD. The daily charts suggest that it is at a short term top. Every top starts by being a short term top. This forum is bearish on the dollar. It is is time to go long the dollar. Because of the carry cost, I will play it another way where I...

I would just like to add that when MMs is short put and want to hedge it they can buy a synthetic put (which is buy a call at same strike and short the stock). This makes them neutral, and is also a mechanism that keeps the vols, at a given strike, equal for the put and the call. Do not be...

I have never given a trading seminar (The seminars I gave are scientific seminars only). I have nothing for sale at the present time. Sorry I cannot sell you anything (except maybe some options if you want to take the other side : ).:) In more seriousness now Sir, I appreciated reading your...

Let me say the following (with some questions): 1. Who pays the analysts, the brokers, the market makers, the stock exchange fees, the investment bankers who underwrote the IPO? These people have to be paid somehow. Tell us who pays them,and they make no risk. We know that they make a lot of...

I would even say that it is probably the only winning road to take if one is a short term trader! If one is an investor then things might be different!

Here is someone whom I think is a winner. I never did, but I will read his posts. This man has no illusion as to what he is doing, the means he is using, the context in which he is doing it, and the dangers that may exit around him (even if they do not exit in fact). You deserve your name!

That is a good point of view. And that is not what I meant by batteling, although I understand what you mean. The ultimate trader is someone who has to do ZERO fighting (just pick the winner, side with it and reap the reward). But you are left with the problem of knowing which side you are...

Spy: Thanks for worrying about my breakfast! I take other points of view well, and in fact thanks others for sharing them. But isn't that the market (in doing its job), chews and spits out any trader who opposes it.? When it moves and it constantly does (just one tick), it chews exactly the...

I did not know that traders can inspire "film" makers. Also I want to ask traders: what is your edge(s)? Which type is it? How did you develop it (them)? I once heard someone say, I go long when my back hurts, and go short when it does not hurt and I have slept well many days in a row.
