    There can only be one rally point. I'm pretty sure most of you would agree. If we are gonna go out....go out the right way. Las Vegas.

    8-24 Plunge after 3:20pm

    Yes...definitely agree. This morning seemed much different then the past. The ES has done 45 million contracts with 30 min to go in the cash session. This has to be some kind of record right ?

    Stock up on canned food for stock market crash, warns former government adviser

    I don't know man.....all this talk about living in my house for a month straight....eating other humans to survive......I can't remember this talk during a blizzard in Chicago. Yes I was younger and like most traders at that time drank a lot, but even in ridiculous drunk state I can't remember...

    Stock up on canned food for stock market crash, warns former government adviser

    Ok man...I lived through 10 years of Chicago winters....I can't imagine how cold it's gonna be up there when the financial crisis takes out the sun or whatever is going to happen.

    8-24 Plunge after 3:20pm

    100 Vix ? Damn.....I like your thinking. If you get more of what happened this morning then it's probably possible. Watching the ES this morning I don't think I have ever seen that kind of action. Even 2008 bloodbaths and the 9/11 mess at times seemed much more orderly then this morning.

    8-24 Plunge after 3:20pm

    Hey....don't get me wrong. I love these insane sell offs. Makes for great trading. Even for those who trade other markets beside ES. I hope the vix goes to the high 90's again..... The Fed probably won't raise rates until 2087 after today.....

    Stock up on canned food for stock market crash, warns former government adviser

    I am probably going to buy 2 months of food. If the end of the world last more than 2 months I will convert to cannibalism after that. These doom and gloom guys are great...they usually are great at calling market bottoms. I'm curious though.....is a financial crisis going to cause weather...

    I like I and II the best. The original ones which interview the best traders out there.Basically they cover the best of the best. III was ok. IV is pretty good. I basically re-read I and II. Also Trend Following by Michael Covel. Even if you aren't a fan of TF's the book has a ton of...

    Yep. Exactly. They are very vocal when they want something. We have a 2 yr old and a 9 yr old. The younger one is hilarious. She messes with the older one. Will sneak up on her, smack her with her paw then run. The older one will eventually get up and pounce on her. 5 minutes later the younger...

    In the past I would trade U.S. Then sleep from 8:00 p.m. to 1:00 a.m. edt. Then get up and trade Europe into the U.S. Session. 5 hours sleep would be enough. But it does get rough towards the end of the week. In my younger days I would do the 24 hour thing, except I was done trading at 4:15...

    I let the market dictate to me how many trades I do. Some weeks I get 10+ trades, some weeks 1-2. If the set up is there I pull the trigger. For me less is more. It comes down to making money. If your strategy dictates doing more trades and the performance is good then go for it. In the past I...

    "It is kind of boring though, just waiting for setups every day." In my humble opinion, great trading can and will be very boring at times. A major part of the game is discipline. Those with discipline will wait.....and wait....and wait......then strike when it's there. At the end of the month...

    What risk management mistakes did Victor Niederhoffer make to blow up a few times?

    Basically you call anybody who disagrees with you broke losers who are jealous. You call people on here failed traders all the time. That is the behavior of a prick. You want examples ? There are 100's on here. You may be a great guy outside of here, but this "persona" you created on here is a...

    Why has the turtle trend-following system stop working?

    Why has the turtle trend-following system stop working?

    Dude I am willing to lay 1-9 odds that your ex wife was a trend follower. Did she buy Covel's book and that was the last straw. :) For the record, Covel's book in my opinion is one of the top 5 trading books ever written.

    Why has the turtle trend-following system stop working?

    Surf you are the master of success gonzo hate vibe when it comes to the topic of trend following. You trash TF's that have been successful for years. When they go into draw downs you are on here celebrating their losses, then when they go back to their highs/great performance you go into hiding...
