    Trend Following dying?

    This thread is a perfect example of why I have this love/hate relationship with EliteTrader. What could have been an intelligent discussion has degraded into a bunch of rock throwing and dribble. Can't you guys ever have a discussion w/o pissing at each other? There are pearls of wisdom here...

    Banks in Calif., Ill., Fla., Texas are shut down-

    I love the fact you have no idea what is going on The Feds bailed out all of them. A bunch of AIG's money went to Goldman which declared record profits. They all say they are making profits again with stinky balance sheets. A-N-D they are still doing the same shit they were doing to...

    Questions for Tradestation users

    Having had since Windows 3.1, I have watched it grow into a complete resource hawg. It will bring the average computer to its knees. I spent 4K on my last computer just for TS and I use 20K download/2k upload cable connection. With that, a profit @ 20 ticks on the S&P is not a problem...

    Are there any True Wall street traders on this site

    How much the other guy makes is not my concern..retail or not. I pay a fortune in taxes as it is. Also, are you financially illiterate? bad real estate loans made into bad real estate derivatives which were sold round the world took AIG, Lehman, et al down and we had to bail em out...

    Are there any True Wall street traders on this site

    Thats fine with me! The "professionals" @ Wall Street are the ones that took this country down to its knees last year as they considered what their bottom line should be! and Lasner stop throwing rocks. You have no idea what you are talking about based on what you posted here.

    Only Ben Nelson Stands Between Us and Obamacare.. Dick Morris

    As somebody who paid 70K in taxes last year and used to be a Republican, I just want to say that you idiots have ruined the party and made Wash DC even more screwed up than it was. The health care bill was a good idea until you idiots decided that you wanted to stop Obama from getting...

    Money Won't Buy Happyness

    Yeah, only! The freedom get on a plane and go do something fun with loved ones at the drop of a hat is a hell of a lot better than laying awake at night trying to figure out how to make the house payment. Scared shitless they are going to take the house. Been there done that. It changed my...

    Predicting Day's Range

    Mark nailed it. You are looking for something that is disappearing into the past. I would add that as time moves on the RTH hours are blurring into the overnight. Its tending to a 24 hour day. 7/2 is a good example. The unemployment hit @8:30 EDT and the RTH just followed suit. I bet someday...

    Richard Dennis and Turtles In Chicago Tuesday

    I think Mr Surf is kidding, but he is saying that the Turtles may have worked for Dennis. However, they never got hired as neophytes with no background to be taught by Dennis.

    Richard Dennis and Turtles In Chicago Tuesday

    I don't know anything about the trend following guys or anybody else using the Turtle name to make money...and there are/have been some. However, Richard Dennis is the real deal and the Turtles happened. The fact that he traded himself into a ditch is also real....oops!

    A trading edge is the easiest thing?

    How I got my "edge" I spent lots of time and money making up my own trading style. Its mine and you don't want it anyway. I bought Tradestation in 1994 for $2000 (I think).In 2000 I lost 40K trading. In 2001-2003, I lost another 30K trading. Not to mention paying trading fees, brokerage...

    Richard Dennis and Turtles In Chicago Tuesday

    Sorry, Chow Mein, it was Eddie Murphy in Trading Places. Regardless of what you say, the basic Turtles concept works everyday all day long. It is so simple, the janitor can do it. Why are you raging on them? :confused:

    Bernanke lieing before Congress perjuring himself - This is insane!

    YUP! and Bernanke should have told that ass where to shove it. Instead he was polite and in a quivering voice just answered the questions. I can't imagine Volker or Greeny even allowing themselves to be in that situation before a bunch of political hacks with another agenda.

    FREE ES Trading Strategy that works

    Who sez indicators don't work? Ha! :p While I don't use indicators, I can finally see what LBR's first cross does and it obviously works. It tracks pull backs on a trend. When I went to her $3,000 seminar, she presented this along with a deluge of other information. However, not quite...
