    S&P 500 P/E at 129?

    why not just run some scenarios to see what is rational? if you assume a 20x p/e (about avg since '88) on 1000 s&p, you would need $50 dollars in as reported earnings over the next 12 months. now is a 20x p/e reasonable? I don't think so due to all the things that have gone on in the past...

    Free Medical School!

    doesn't make sense. why would entry be free? first, it is already extremely difficult to get into MIT or other such schools so free gives you nothing extra here. second, the web courses are great marketing and that is what I suspect they are there for; it's a draw to get people to pay for a...

    Fed Asset Scheme

    exactly. no one seems to take the $8,000 into account and extra $10,000 in CA. most people just comment that housing must be at a bottom because of an uptick, etc. my guess is the uptick in prices equals about $8,000.

    ok, thanks. I understand the position size and how you adjust size. however, there are a few things I am not clear on (I'll stick to the GC trade). - are you using both the daily and weekly for the higher time frame when making trades on the 240 min chart? - the initial risk was much...

    some other questions if, hopefully, you don't mind? I have put in quite a bit of time reading your posts so I understand how you are looking at things, but just trying to understand a few of the intricacies of what you do. Looking at the GC and euro trades ( I believe I understand the...

    would you mind if I asked why you moved your stop to 952.00 on 8/5? was it because of the probable MACD divergence on the daily or was there some other reason? thanks

    Excellent article from market ticker.

    I know what you are saying. It's a balancing act. You may be right that gov't wants to or says it wants to do the right thing, but I have come to the conclusion that the incentives lead to the wrong thing. I also agree that the best and worst outcomes may only happen 5% of the time, but...

    Excellent article from market ticker.

    I understand you are probably playing devil's advocate somewhat, but at some point a decision has to be made as an investor or trader. You seem to know what you are talking about, so what do you believe about our situation right now? You make good points, but constant worry of threats to our...

    Hedge Fund/Trader Documentaries

    anyone know where "Million Dollar Traders" can be viewed? it seems the BBC took it down. I guess they don't really want to make money from a show quite a few people actually appear to want to see. reminds me of going to a grocery in france once: they made you pay to get a cart.

    Big Banks Accept Bailout Money....But Not CA IOUs....

    wonder how many pennies on the dollar these IOUs would buy if you tried to exchange for gold? not many, is my guess I think the IOUs just end up on the fed's balance sheet and the banks get $s in return. is that a possiblility?

    Lear Files for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Protection

    seems as if the judges have been very sympathetic, to say the least, to the government's arguments in the case of GM and Chrysler. maybe that's the reason.

    Approach to trading the ES contract

    is it correct to say that you add the s/r lines cumulatively on each chart? for instance, do you add 60min s/r and then move to 120min and add more s/r over-top of the already drawn 60min s/r, etc. all the way up to daily? thanks

    A Tidbit from Dave Rosenberg on Inflation

    not to mention the final or later recipients of those dollars don't enjoy nearly the benefits or purchasing power of the first users or recipients, thus somewhat invisibly hurting the unsuspecting common people even more.

    *Yes*, an apology to someone who attacks you always works wonders. I am sure if we had done that, everything would be peace and love right now.
