    What did I do wrong in this chart?

    I feel like I need to debunk this conservative argument

    lol yes, I understand that but the loan HAS to be conforming before the lender will fund it and then sell it to Fannie. Perhaps you should restart with an argument that doesn't involve knowledge of the origination process that you probably lack.

    I feel like I need to debunk this conservative argument

    I keep hearing about different causes of the subprime crisis, but none as ubiquitous as this one. Basically the idea that the subprime crisis was caused by democrats who urged companies like fannie mae to lend to low income families and minorities. These people didn't really deserve the loans...

    What did I do wrong in this chart?

    So I decided to start following USD/JPY at night. I got my feed from gain and opened up a 30 sec chart. It seems like the volume is really low? I went back 14 days and the biggest vol spike I see within a 30 sec interval is 40. Did I pull up the wrong symbol or something? Something is weird...

    Who cares about the DOW?

    Out of curiosity, why do news agents, people, business channels etc all follow and quote the DOW? Isn't the S&P a far broader picture of our economy as a whole (which is always what they are talking about). I'm sure there are some advantages to the DOW, but in macro terms, shouldn't they be more...

    John Arnold

    Read an article about him, interesting stuff. The story is (don't know if its true) that he made $750 mil for Enron when he was 27. I'm curious how traders like him trade. Not to make money off it lol, I trade my own way, but I'm just curious what big-size fund traders use to trade. Do they...

    Citi Profitable?

    Thanks guys. Those bastards. I trade ES/NQ so I have no dog in the race, but "profitable" lol. Anyone know where I can get a copy of Pandits memo? Im also curious how much of a loss they can take on those assets. I wonder how much the fed (we) will pay for them. If we gave them what they are...

    Citi Profitable?

    Doesn't seem possible. Have they marked ALL of their assets to market? If they are planning on pawning off their "toxic" debt to the feds, who decided how much the feds pay for those assets? Is there a good place where I can l read about these asset "levels"? Where can I find out how...

    My point is simply that we can't answer his questions unless we know what kind of setups he's looking for.

    IN THIS THREAD: IronFist learns (the elusive) PRICE ACTION

    Yes, he made a mistake on that one. Anyways IF there is no right answer to your question. You must define trend for yourself, in the time frame that you choose. One mans trend is another mans retracement, is just chop to someone else....its subjective. i would still encourage you to identify one...

    IN THIS THREAD: IronFist learns (the elusive) PRICE ACTION

    For the past 8 weeks i have been focusing on identifying the trend, and then entering on the pull backs (or pull ups). I focus on one strategy at a time, this way I can formulate rules and understand that strategy thoroughly before adding other setups. I'll be adding a reversal strategy...

    IN THIS THREAD: IronFist learns (the elusive) PRICE ACTION

    IF, Have you identified as aspect of PA that you want to focus on? I think if you do this it will be much easier for you to see what you're looking for. I would identify what kind of set ups you're looking for, then we can figure out how to get there.
