Quah, Honestly, don't get me wrong. I fully support what you are doing and I hope it is successful. Any speculation on my part is no better than a guess. I admire the fact that you are putting real money on this system and have the balls to see what happens. I'm not saying it won't work...

resinate, If that were the case, why not make trade after trade when the last has concluded? I do believe in simplicity in a system, but I don't think that random entry points or fixed entry points is the key. The key, from my observations, is learning to spot trends and knowing when...

The NY lottery was 911 today and yesterday the S&P futures closed at 911. Anyone else think this is just a tad bit more than mere coincidence? Anyone? The odds of any number being selected in the lottery would be 1 in 999. So tell me, in the very city that was hit on September 11...

Axeman, Perhaps you skimmed over it the last time, but I will repeat it for you -- "These are personal beliefs." There is no need to assert my beliefs on you or anyone else. I am merely offering you, another human-being, my own perspective on life. It is up to you if you think my beliefs...

I would change your last sentence because, as we all know, one man's evidence is another man's supposition. I could say that the universe itself is evidence of a God and then you could tell me that it is not. If I hold a gun with your fingerprints on it and the bullet that killed Mrs...

Quah, All trades at their onset -- 100% of trades, automatically become a loser just from the spread and commissions. I don't agree with the 50/50 probability. There are markets that give you a high-probability of a winner over a shorter time domain and, as that time-domain increases...

axeman , Thanks. I read your post with the expectations that you would prove or disprove life after death, but you have merely left us back at the original question plus a few kilobytes on a hard-drive to boot. aphie

quah, Interesting. But I think statistics will catch up to you after a certain time. With a 50/50 chance of being right, you have larger losses than winners. However, by all means, keep trading it. The rule of large numbers may take so long to catch up with your system, that you might...

Gordon, "There are more things between heaven and earth than are dreamt of by man in all his philosophy."

axeman, This is exactly why, for me, debating the presence and existence of a god is a waste of time. I know that a creator exists due to the experiences in *my* life than have led me to that conclusion. furthermore, you obviously refute this due to the experiences within *your* life...

torntech.com, I would like to hear what you use for your entry signals, what your rules are regarding stop-losses and how you manage a trade once you are in it.

Bilbo, I just watched Lord of the Rings last night. That is ironic. Have you read some of Jack's posts? In general, what method does he use? I am going to review the messages in that link you sent, but I was wondering if you had any more insight as to his trading style. He is obviously...

I am familiar with stock options but not future options. Where is a good source for information about the main differences between them?

Probably the best way to avoid chop is another simple indicator -- the, "Oh the markets chopping so I'll sit this out until I get trends again" indicator in your brain.

Who trades them -- what do you like about them, and what advantages do you see in trading them?

Gene, You mean you're human, too? :eek:

Some people don't have 25k in risk capital to trade QQQ, ETFs, etc. However, this rule does not apply to futures trading, where you can still enjoy leverage and not have to deal with uptick rules for shorting, as well as cash day-trading rules. If you want to daytrade other stocks, then...

The Three Samurai Back in the time when the Samurai were important, there was a powerful emperor who needed a new chief Samurai, so he sent out a declaration throughout the land that he was searching for one. A year passed, and only 3 people showed up: a Japanese Samurai a Chinese Samurai...

Subject: "I NOT COME WORK TODAY" Hung Chow calls in to work and says, "Hey, boss, I not come work today, I really sick. I got headache, stomach ache and my legs hurt. I not come work." The boss says, "You know, Hung Chow, I really need you today. When I feel like this I go to my wife and...
