    Bright Trade

    I think you guys are being somewhat unfair. At some point people have to be responsible for themselves. The choices we make in life are what define us as individuals. The 80 yr old grandma who is willing to put up 20k to "get rich quick" is going to lose that money eventually whether...

    Question for Grob/Hershey...

    what are you talking about? I use neoticker in addition to my qcharts platform and I can program an indicator for the slope of any indicator. I can even go further and program the 2nd derivative and onward. Leave the cave man! Good luck, Ryan

    Auto trading 1 contract 62K 5 years...

    Out of curiosity, what was your max drawdown? (over many days) You mention that your daily loss is >$1000 and you don't have the stomach for that. What about a series of days with losses accumulating > $1000. your 50% win method probably needs a better risk/reward per trade.

    Before this step in the downward spiral, take the last of your cash to Vegas and put it all on Black. If you lose, make a quick stop at the bunny ranch then continue on to suicide....

    Can't bring myself to leave my job.

    Umm.... I think you need to put in your two week notice and jet out of town. If your young and single you need to live in a town with a great nightlife and a lot of young ladies! You live only once... Don't let this job steal your youth. Go find another job in EE somewhere else. It's...

    Unattended Automated Trading

    How much did that set you back? Right now, I have been babysitting my system and have cheapo ups that will provide about 10 mins. for my system. Enough time for me to exit trades and shutdown. But, I'm considering spending some $$$ to give me more power/time and have the ability to run...

    Question for Grob/Hershey...

    Hi guys, looking for some insight. There has been a lot of discussion about market PACE as monitored on the 5-min fractal. But, what if you want to monitor larger fractals such as 60-min? (Note: I'm not necessarily looking for a freebie, but need some clues. ) In trading the 60-min...
