I seriously doubt that there's anyone here that's ever bought two or three millions shares of anything. That must be a hefty account you have there to afford a few million shares of anything priced above $2, especially if you want to maintain sane position sizing principles.

GG, wasn't the purpose of this thread to post your current trades - ie, 'ideas' - so that they could be evaluated and constructive criticism provided? If you're going to go off thinking of new ideas so that you don't come across as stupid - an attempt to shield yourself - the purpose of this...

Wow, what a story. I just finished reading the "Market Has Bottomed, The Trend is UP" thread that I dug up. This is better than ficition! It really brings to life the "if you don't know who you are, the market is an expensive place to find out" cliche my brothers have drummed into me...

It's so very sad to see the disastrous pyschological effects this disease called Christianity has on people. I pity people like this Thunderbolt character, who are forced into the uneviable position of defending the greatest lie ever told. Truly, truly sad.

No journal entry yet GG? I hope you haven't contracted a nasty case of 40yo Syndrome.

And trading is about making money. Therefore, your life is about making money? :P

Your EMH textbook doesn't have the answer?

What market impact could ET possibly have? It's a discussion forum, not a chatroom.

Life, for the vast majority of Earth's population, is largely a matter of survival; about producing enough to be able to satisfy the basic requirements of life. In the west, we are 'fortunate' (it wasn't really simply a matter of luck) to be able to argue about no end of life is about this's...

Human nature itself might be what it has always been, but the ways in which that nature are outwardly expressed have undergone, and continue to undergo, siginficant changes. As someone on this site has said, Dr Zhivodka, I think, "truth beyond the platitudes" is what we're after.

Re: the monk riddle. I think it can be proven that the number of days required to know, conclusively, that one has a dot on one's forehead is the same as the total number of dots. Such a proof doesn't have to be 'mathematical' or algebraic. In fact, I can't see how it could be stated in...

Gordon, that's quite an honest admission! I doubt there would be too many willing to face up to the dire reality of their circumstances at all, let alone publicly. It makes for a pleasant change from the tedious braggadocio one normally encounters on internet message boards. They say...

Brain teasers are such fun aren't they? :) I really enjoyed the one about the monks. That would be one of the best I've come across. daniel_m, the answer to your mother/son question is the mother was 84 when she died. I have another, if people are interested. There are two lengths...

mkmps, just out of curiousity, on what basis do you plan to emmigrate to Brazil? It's not just a matter of deciding you want to live there and that's that, there are requirements you need to satisfy. My brother married a Brazilian and his wife has family in Brasilia (the capital). I'll try...

Trajan, you know all this how? Do you live there? I ask because there is a difference for citizens of those nations and for someone visiting on a more temporary basis. Suriname is the other country you missed (I think everyone does). I know nothing about it except that they have Indians...

Forty points? In one day? That is simply remarkable. Never have I heard of anybody doing that! Good lord!
