    How about you post your methodology? Then when you make calls you can cite the reasons. That way those who are interested in your trading style can follow along and potentially learn something. opm8

    Well, your blog reads just like *every* other one about trading. "I'm gonna buy that, not interested in this other stock." I don't know why anyone would waste their time on it. opm8

    Why not talk to them directly instead of taking verbatim some anonymous hearsay?

    I had some very interesting work to share

    ok ok I can't take it anymore! If you pay me $11 I will listen to your idea. I would have said $100 but then I realized you probably don't have that much. opm8

    The Mortgage Lender "Implode-o-Meter"

    Bullshit. If you're too stupid to read the documents you're signing when making the biggest financial transaction of your life you deserve what you get. If you're too stupid to do due diligence when entering into a contract you deserve what you get. If you're too stupid to conduct yourself...

    Latest "un" Hedge Fund reports

    Meh. A couple of up days and all this will be last year's news. The only thing to notice is the hysteria that the mass media is pumping. opm8

    How to know when your ready

    Brent, Nothing you've done will prepare you for what the market will throw at you. However, the best way to start trading is just to start trading. If you believe in yourself and have the courage of your convictions you can become a bigger success than you ever dreamt. There's trillions of...

    why such Huge Losses if the Loans are COLLATERIZED?

    My guess is that $535k house was waaay overpriced and probably worth around $100k to begin with a few years ago. And "nicest area" in Detroit -- does that mean it's 10% less crack whores and gang members than downtown? That city is a shithole and has slums as far as the eye can see for a reason.

    Save your breath, bro. Retards never learn. Just thank him for being in the market (if he actually has an account). opm8

    The truth behind Wednesday's rally...

    Somehow I find all these reports of erroneous trades complete bullshit. With that much money at stake it's nearly impossible for me to believe such a fantastic story. opm8

    nice close

    Well, I don't think overnight highs/lows have any more or less validity than anything else. You could pick any arbitrary level and claim it has superstitious powers. Whatever, I don't trade that way but if it works for you, then keep on truckin'. opm8

    nice close

    Good to see you have market moves so clearly laid out, dude. How can you possibly lose with such perfect hindsight? I love it when someone knows exactly why something happened. Always after the fact, of course. opm8

    nice close

    Cutten, I think you're somewhat wrong in your basic assessment. What made this up move unusual and surprising in your eyes? The past few days have seen a raging move going into the close and today was no different, as I see it. I was trying to get long all day and had my ass handed to me...

    Why are traders such smug SOB's!?

    Trading is a cutthroat business. If you're going to talk to others in the business don't be delusional and expect them to be warm, giving folk. As a reminder to you, it's a war of wills that we're engaged in here, with money the score. opm8

    The 90/10 Principle

    Ari Kiev's "The Psychology of Risk" talks about this kind of thing. What he recommends (and I've put it to good use, too) is: keep a journal of your emotions during trading, including the time of day when you felt what you did. Since you can't always experience a feeling without the...
