    A question to people that don't "believe" in TA

    porgie, like i said YMMV my entries are all about statistics i have several setups (about 8 that i use consistently) and every single one has a very well researched risk/reward ratio, win %age etc. this can be skewed by other factors that i watch that are a bit more subjective (my...

    Technical, Fundamental, or Both?

    utter and complete rubbish it is not impossible to use both. i use both i profit obviously on a very short time frame, fundies are relatively meaningless. when intraday scalping the dow futures for instance on longter time frames, i use both. it's worked with XAU calls, YG...

    What Was The Most Simple Edge That Worked For You?

    this summer, I made some nice scalps off the QM (crude) YM correlation. Crude spikes, YM dips. Crude dips. YM spikes. it was pretty consistent of course, it is no longer a strong correlation. but for a couple of months it was good for several nice little scalps a week

    A question to people that don't "believe" in TA

    look. a lot of the time, if you don't preenter a limit order @ price X, you can't get a fill @ price X. iow, there are a certain # of trades on the book @ price X. relatively often, a price will come down to Price X (and in the case of the long) maybe 1/2 or 2/3 of the limit buys at that...

    What Was The Most Simple Edge That Worked For You?

    the most simple edge? (i trade YM) NOT entering a trade unless the odds are greatly in my favor one huge advantage we have (as traders of index futures) over mutual funds etc. is the advantage of standing aside. also seen is the advantage of quickly getting in and out, which as an...

    Rational Republicans question religion's growing role in their party

    no, what i am looking for is intellectual honesty, something u are incapable of. when i am wrong, i admit so. you don't. it's called being an adult. it's also good for your p/l

    Rational Republicans question religion's growing role in their party

    i am not arguing with your "moral position". that is your opinion and more power to you. i am arguing with your misstatement of facts about how the civil rights movement happened/is happening. the FORMER is opinion. the latter is fact. the former is not refutable the latter is. if...

    Rational Republicans question religion's growing role in their party

    "There is no revision of my hypothesis. I have discussed many times in Chit Chat the difference in my mind between religion and spirituality." that's great. it's irrelevant to the statements you made, that i refuted and that u now refuse to acknowledge. "I don't consider religious dogma...

    Rational Republicans question religion's growing role in their party

    "My hypothesis was, and is that religious people (who are not practicing spirituality, i.e. acceptance and tolerance, and promoting human rights) are not good for our society when they get into the political field." that may be your (now revised) hypothesis, but it is not what u said.... i...

    Rational Republicans question religion's growing role in their party

    i repeat: here is what u said: "The deeply religious folks who were/are at the forefront of human rights for all, were/are not using the Bible or other religious doctrine to make their arguments." that is demonstrably false, and i have demonstrated how it is false you have yet to...

    "No, I am not back peddling. It happens all the time that some people need clarification of a statement, which is apparently what you need, and what I am providing. " no, it happens all the time that people in support of an ill defined hypothesis/idea/etc. throw out false statements based on...

    Rational Republicans question religion's growing role in their party

    you are still backpedaling, changing the argument and using strawmen (cause you made a false statement that you are too cowardly to admit) let's replay... you said" "The deeply religious folks who were/are at the forefront of human rights for all, were/are not using the Bible or other...

    Rational Republicans question religion's growing role in their party

    care to respond to #2. you made the claim, and now you run from it. because i suspect you realize it was false. but in a kneejerk fashion, you introduced it to try to defend your point, which is rapidly fading as you realize it was false. hth

    Rational Republicans question religion's growing role in their party

    way to evade the point, zzzz here is what you said that i responded to "Religion doesn't promote freedom in this world, Judeo/Christian/Islam promotes freedom in the afterlife, and a bunch of social rules that restrict personal freedoms in this life" "The deeply religious folks who...
