    tampa's "short skirt" trades...

    My SOMP™ is working fine, thank you very much for asking - I was merely referring to hearsay from some ex-traders. But back to trading, my friend. I believe you can significantly improve your bottom line by combining the best of Linda Raschke and Alan Farley - what I had in mind was the...

    Techniques for Managing a Random Entry

    Gordon, if I recall correctly, you raised a similar question some months ago. It is an area which obviously has you confused. You should be able to answer your own question.

    Las Vegas traders

    I have a few queries regarding specific neighborhoods and other general LV-related topics which would best be dealt with in a couple of PM's. I therefore invite any Las Vegas-based trader, who is prepared to assist me by answering a few questions, to PM me.

    tampa's "short skirt" trades...

    Do my eyes deceive me? What gives (deleted by Magna) the right to abuse client/chatroom operator privilege and disclose to you my astronaut story? While this is sufficient grounds for a lawsuit, I once again put the interests of the trading community before my own and extend an olive branch to...

    tampa's "short skirt" trades...

    I lost a bundle this morning trying out Aphie's new front end (Jasper) - but what really cheesed me off was that I could have made it all back, and then some, had I been privileged to hear your live calls in the chatroom.

    Jasper pre-beta available

    Now you tell me !!! Thought I'd give Jasper a run - I bought 5 contracts of ES at 917 (11:30) and closed them out at 917.25 (11:31). Or so I thought. Now I see I'm still long with the ES at 911. I may average down and buy another 5 contracts. What do you think?

    Improving your trading strategy using probability

    dottom, we are not in disagreement. As you yourself have cautioned, however, this is not readily exploitable by the typical ET reader.

    Improving your trading strategy using probability

    Apparently not clear enough to convince Malkiel or Niederhoffer.

    Improving your trading strategy using probability

    I cannot attach much credence to this advice. Either you trade your system, with its inherent underlying probability distribution, or you don't. This sort of manipulation, ceteris paribus, will not skew the odds in your favor. On the assumption that you have no crystal ball, the money saved by...
