by the way, for the ones who follow Taleb but not Bloomberg: http://media.bloomberg.com/bb/avfile/BBRECON/vrLyqajz25o0.mp3 Nice chat with Taleb

I see your point. I did try to trade the ES for a while, but since I'm inexperienced I realized that I still have some work to do. Now I'm looking more at the YM (no trading), and yes, I'm looking at the ES too, but more to learn how it works than to monitor it. Sometimes I also like to look at...

Although it shows self confidence and motivation, I would still define this an arrogant statement. And this contradicts the above. This basically shows that you have even less an idea than me. Post less, think more. This is advice from someone who, like you, started and lost money. The...

yes, I considered this option. I don't know how the S&P 500 is made, but in that case I would question its usefulness.

Do you mean that people are using the same programs to trade more indices? Ummm... that could be an explanation. Thank you

me neither :) I don't know, it's just something I'm noticing, and it's not the first time. I also see similarities at 12,12:15,13:20,13:45, and at other times. As I said, I can expect people to follow other indices, but these reactions look to me very efficient. I was wondering if it's just me...

And the YM is here

Sure. You can look at the charts of YM and ES. Look at how they open, the top at around 9:15, how they go up to the top of the day, at around 10:15. Particularly intriguing are the two minutes at around 12:45. Exactly two minutes , for both, to fall far below the minimum. If I'm not wrong they...

I have a question. I can understand why people look at other indices, but why do charts look so similar, even in a short timeframe? They have the same tops, the same bottoms, the same jumps. Similarities are remarkable. As if there was some kind of arbitrage. Even volume looks similar

And not only that. There is also: - drop in the chinese market - lower unemployment - oil price increasing Yet, market is going up. I just want to give my 2 cents and write a couple of reasons: - volatility. Market has been choppy for weeks - some good news. Look, for example, at the ISM...

True, but it wasn't directed to you. It was directed to the nice guy who called you a stupid punk for no reason. That was what his post looked to me. I guess I wasn't clear enough

Only steers and queers come from Texas, Private baggerlord. And you don't look much like a steer to me so that kinda narrows it down. Do you suck dicks? Cheer up dude. Life is not so bad. No need to be so harsh

Makes kind of sense. Thank you

I would say you are right. That's why I don't memorize. I'm not interested. I just want to learn more about the mental processes people use. I don't even look at the book (I can't, I have to work), but I find your posts quite interesting anyway, especially the ENR part. I have a question...

snobs? This is new

I got mine a couple of days ago, but I bought it in Europe. On the rear it says "100-240V", so I would assume your question is answered. Maybe to be sure you can ask Dell. It is, by the way, a very good monitor. I would recommend it.

Not that I'm rejecting the idea of buying the book, but when the book will be out I presume you'll still be managing your tiny little fund. So why can you answer all questions in the book but not now? Are you allow to disclose everything in a book but not in a forum?

Anything to prevent the US from producing another Paris Hilton?

you have my vote

Steve, why did you change? You were doing pretty well with stocks
