Amen!

Ooop... Ok Regarding Z10, I think he should be more respectful towards your struggles. (not to speak for Z) But as you are probably aware from other posts of his, he views this issue from a pretty different perspective-one with a good track record too.

I'm not sure what I said that upset you. I am sorry you have had bad experiences with psychotherapy. I am not a medical doctor and certainly not a booster of psychiatric medications. I did read thru that study and like I said, I am inclined to believe that opiates are more effective than...

From my reading of the literature, I agree with your statement above. The chicken and egg question is not resolved. Further complicating the picture, there is a concept called neuroplaticity which documents adaptive and maladaptive brain changes in response to illness, life experience and...

One other comment: None of the medications mentioned in this thread produce a cure for depression; instead they alleviate symptoms. As the links to Buprenorphine materials that Reardon posted indicated, the drug is only designed to be used as a short term measure to manage chemical dependence...

I checked that I am open minded. As I have mentioned in previous threads, current anti-depressant medication is effective at about the same rate as a placebo sugar pill (which interestingly works better with depressives than others). I would not be surprised if opiates are much more effective...

The charting is mostly Linnsoft IRT plus an IB chart. The 3rd program running is Thinkorswim's platform. All 3 programs run on Mac OS X.

I am planning to be at Ceres after 6 tomorrow (friday). Hope to see some of you there. :cool:

Legally, I don't know.... But, I would think that evacuating a major city is something uniquely suited for the Feds. Or, at minimum, 'taking responsibility' should include reviewing the local gov'ts plans to make sure no obvious major errors are included in said plans like shelters in the...

Not according to US law. "In the event of a terrorist attack, natural disaster or other large-scale emergency, the Department of Homeland Security will assume primary responsibility..." credit to Babak: from: http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=55019

Yes, exactly.

Hey Jim, I heard that statistic from Tom Sosnoff at ThinkorSwim. Likewise re. drinks. :cool:

As of last summer at least, the largest single institutional participant in ES was CBOE market makers.

I traded 100 shares of SPY for years to teach myself to trade. I also trade small lots of them or SPY options (recently born) occasionally to practice something new. I don't have much experience with QQQQ. Having traded most of the forms of the S&P 500, I would say that trading SPY is a skill...

Are you serious? You don't know who optional777 is presently? You can still find him cleaning up live in the ET chat and trashing 'regressives' in the chit chat forum. :cool:

I have had Earthlink DSL (thru Covad) for years and liked it very much. I have cable as a back up and find that while the DSL may be slower for peak speed, its more consistent. The only time I had problems was when I had it on the same circuit as a window AC. When I moved it to another...

Yep, this guy has balls. Remember he has also survived 2 US backed coups against his elected government. Drug war is just another in a long history of BS excuses for US imperialism in Latin America.

True re IV. Also along those lines, as x approaches and going into long weekends, the rot of theta can become a factor even in intraday trades.

1) A wider bid/offer spread than the underlying- .05-.20 depending on the contract. 2) Limited liquidity meaning you are more likely to have to pay above spread to enter and exit.
