    Poll: Sell in May 2011?

    Shortie, Tommorrow in the first day of the month, which statistically speaking should be an up day. I have a theory that if the first day of the month is down, the second day of the month is also down. And this pattern is an indicator of immediate market weakness. Are you able to tell...

    Lance Armstong

    Cycling has always been the most drug ridden sport they is. Excuse the pun. They are all on drugs. Lance Armstrong was still the fastest. He didn't get caught. That's all there is to it.

    Recently gone automated, what to do?

    Buy a treadmill and start. Aim to run 3 miles in 30 minutes. If you can do that once a day, you will become very fit. And you won't think about trading. Runningbear

    Anyone using i5 or i7 now?

    I upgraded from a dual core chip to the i7 950 chip with windows 7 and 6 gigs of ram. The difference is incredible. It feels about 6 times faster running esignal.

    Australian housing bubble thread

    Most of the damage will occur to the first home buyer house and land package couples in the new outer suburbs that have a excessive amount of their weekly income linked to mortgage payments. Gen Ys that have never lived through a high interest rate cycle. They will be the forced sellers...

    Australian housing bubble thread

    I think the Aussie market is overvalued. And I think we will won't see any capital growth for about five years. I don't think we're more than 15 - 20% over valued. The reason I say this is houses are not likely to fall below their replacement costs. In Australia, it costs about $280K to build...

    Australian housing bubble thread

    m22au. We sold for a reason. We're now in cash earning 6.25%. But if interest rates go up another .5% which is likely, our return will be closer to 7%. Unlike a house, cash deposits don't have maintenance costs either. We won't be re-entering the market until we get a big correction...

    Australian housing bubble thread

    We just sold a family property in Melbourne at auction 3 weeks ago. There were 8 bidders and the house sold for $250,000 over the reserve. This is even more surprising when you consider the house needed a new kitchen and bathroom to replace the original 1950's ones. There are plenty of...

    Black Swan

    Five days after september 11, a giant hammer appeared on the daily chart and I bought call options. I sold a couple weeks later at a nice profit. In a fear based situation, it's important to recognise when all the fear is priced into the market. This is generally the low.

    Remember the REALITY - U S Marines grow opium for their masters

    Because the cost of labor is too high. The US cannot compete cost effectively. Just like everything else.

    Charlie Munger says "Stock777 was right, hft are scum"

    Speculation exists in all businesses not just trading. The shop keeper on the corner buys food with no intention of eating it. He buys it only to sell it at a higher price, driving up the real price. So he provides no social value either. In essence 70% of all business provide no social...

    What software to signal providers use?

    I'm just wondering if anyone knows what type of software professional signal providers are using. If other people are trading money on your signals then you'd want a pretty redundant set-up. Does anyone know? I'm guessing strategy runner is probably one. Any others? Runningbear

    Keynes vs Hayek: Battle! Hilarious video

    I have to agree. All great posts. The real irony to me is that america has always stood for freedom and capitalism, but now america's government is more socialist than russia's. And the economy is not free at all. The US government subsidize all these non-competitive industries. And bail out...

    Poll: Sell in May 2011?

    Great research shortie. Those results are pretty amazing. It's important to remember that we are in a first presidential term. Which means 1 October 1 2010 to to 30 March 2011 should be the best performing months of the presidential cycle. Almost bordering on free money as the government pump...

    Poll: Sell in May 2011?

    Hey shortie. I have always wondered what the results would be if you combine the 'sell in may' rule with the 'first day of the month' effect. Funds buy stocks on the first day of the month and give higher than average returns. I wonder what the results would be if you only traded the first...
