    Calculating a price from ma crossovers

    Thank you all for your help. Peering into your collective guidance, I've deduced this as the formula: Today's Price = (Today's SMA(15)*10 ) - (Day9+Day8+Day7+Day6+Day5+Day4+Day3+Day2+Day1) Very good work. Thank you again.

    Demise Of Soros' Influence

    Didn't he lose big when he bet against the Russian currency, and I recall reading yet one other time he lost a big bet as well, but I suposse the losses were more than made up for with his gains, or he wouldn't be around. When he cuts his losses short, he only loses a few billion.

    Calculating a price from ma crossovers

    What would be a way to calculate what today's price would have to be to make the 10-day and 15-day simple moving averages cross today?

    Trading times for Monday trough Friday

    I meant "funneling" in the sense of "narrowing to", "concentrating on", "focusing on". I just don't get all too many occasions to use the word "funneling". But anyhow, I take it the answer to my question about funneling your indicator to work with individual equities, as suggested by...

    Price movement is a battle thru Trendlines and S/R

    This may sound like I'm poking fun, but I'm not. When I read harrytrader's posts, I read them to myself with a "make-believe french accent doing a somewhat broken English", and, believe it or not, they are a bit more comprehensible that way. Maybe it makes me "hear" the intonation and...

    Should I Have stayed long?

    Theorizing? Who's theorizing? Ah, you didn't read through my post to see I started with a joke. And so, your answer to the question to VictoriaG_Elite's question is... what?

    Should I Have stayed long?

    You count up the float and subtract the number of shares traded since you entered and that gives you how many more shares will change hands on the way up. Actually, just kidding. You don't measure (that is to say, I don't) the potential that it may keep going. Instead you measure when it's...

    Buffett......I don't get it !

    And their families will be well taken care of in addition to the charities that will inherit and the govt's reaping their estate taxes - because they have enough money to do it all. But for the 99% of us who are not superrich, we would love to be able to pass to our children the after-income tax...

    Buffett......I don't get it !

    They always seem to have money for cigarettes. I think Hardrock375 hit it on the head when he said, "Maybe, because were double taxation to be ended, he would be pressured by his shareholders to payout dividends, thereby lessening his ability to hoard cash and allocate it among his companies...

    Trading times for Monday trough Friday

    Maybe this is something? Found a recent post on Ed Seykota's site about a system very similar to yours, where times are given by the system, those times being generated by a 21 MA and MACD, and Seykota answered the post. Here's the original post, followed by Seykota's reply, and then my...

    Tax Question!

    The room has to be exclusively used only for business. No other material, such as your kid's toys or wife's Harlequin novels, should be in that room, otherwise the IRS would say that it's not used solely for business. My accountant also has told me that it raises a flag with the IRS because...

    SEYKOTA's method?

    William Ekhardt makes a terrific point in that there's something about human nature that makes a trader see his current positions as paramount, so he's willing to bend his rules now to makes those positions profitable, be it hanging in there a little longer on a loser or grabbing a profit too...

    Historical Stock Prices

    They must've just stopped doing it! I got historical prices from them just a couple of days ago. You may want to contact them and see what they say.

    Historical Stock Prices

    siliconinvestor.com is the only other site I know of with historical prices, I don't recall if they adjust for div's or not. What's nicer about their site is that you can also reformat the chronological order of the date display from past to recent, as opposed to yahoo's fixed recent to past...

    Who's trading methodology do you consider to be the best?

    Just curious, as I've noticed this on your signature a few times. Where is this quoted from? And was it before or after his 1860 speech at Cooper Union, before he was president, where he implored the audience with, they said, "passionate" reasons to stop the spread of slavery?

    Second Guessing

    I find it helpful to have much confidence in your strategy, said confidence built on realized results, which gives you a depth of understanding the perplexities involved with getting out at the opportune moment, and to have the outlook that the last trade (the trade that is causing you some...

    Look at these results!!!

    Quote from ChaosNSX: Might have some similarities, you even said it was a great month for longs, so why not use a bullish strategy. That was my point. The MF Mechanical Investing strategies were all taken during the bull run. That's why they're skewed. Your answer presupposes you already...
