    How to IMPROVE EliteTrader!

    I actually suggested something like that a while back but I was more interested in seeing stats on which members were being ignored the most. I got over it eventually. We could have a topic "who is on your ignore list". I have about 4 on ignore right now, either for long rambling posts about...

    Spam Survey

    I have a yahoo account and I just tag all the stuff that looks like spam and report it to them with a click or two, not much effort really, and the spam has steadily reduced from a peak of perhaps 25 a day to less than 5. I hope that legislation goes through to outlaw spam but look how many...

    Why are Democrats and liberals...

    Because they are morally and intellectually bankrupt, have been for decades.

    Why is W...

    sounds dumb? How about "people from the middle east have a right to do terrorist acts because they have no other way to express their political views" from the 1990's?

    Fed up with Tradestation

    You can do the same task with Esig/IB/Dynaorder, just 3 programs to crash instead of the 5 you need with Tradestation 2000, and it would be 6 if you needed global variables.

    Elaine Chao - Ultimate Spinmeister!

    Actually a lot of jobs are going to India and a lot of employers are using "labor on demand", temps in other words, so it may be a mixed thing, a slow recovery that could add some jobs later on.

    programming question

    DDE is a bottleneck if you try to bring too much data through it. Could be other problems that I don't know about. I don't consider IB a good source for data simply because that is not their main business. It seems like ActiveX is the better way to go. I guess if I was going to resurrect the...

    programming question

    I was trying to do things with Excel97/Win98 and VBA at one point. It held a lot of promise and should have been useful for watching a large number of issues but I never could quite get things working well enough. What all are you doing with it?

    Using stops on listed stocks - mechanical or mental?

    I have seen the price come down, down, down, taking out everybody's loss stops and then after it finally gets to my perfectly placed lose stop and takes it out, price goes other way. I keep stops on my own computer 100% of the time nowadays. That shows that backtesting and going forward are...

    Bush Explained

    There just is no science involved in a lot of environmental and safety issues, only hysteria. One really revealing case of that is illustrated by what happened in California a few years ago. Environmental attorneys started a scare story about gasoline stations' tanks polluting drinking water...

    Bush Explained

    That seems to be pretty much what is happening. The environmentalists are actually really happy with this and possibly some of the wealthy people that really don't need to be concerned with a job base or receiving anything from the public sector. If I put myself in the shoes of the rich I just...

    Bush Explained

    You don't get it really. Israel had peace in the bag before the "peace process" started. The peace process is designed by the US to keep a balance of power in place, not to bring peace. When the "peace process" began Israel had just kicked the krap out of several of it's neighbors and was suing...

    Minus the defense spending, economy grew in 2nd quarter only .7% !

    I just read an article recently about how really good, high paying jobs are now being exported to India by the hundreds of thousands. Can we have a recovery without a tax and spending base? Max

    Elliott Wave: Wave 5?

    Absolutely, wave theory, and most theories, leave out current realities that may not have been such a strong vector in the past.

    Elliott Wave: Wave 5?

    I just did a google search on backtest and elliott wave looking for some backtested results. Guess what, so far I'm not really finding "backtested results" and "elliott wave" on the same page. I of course being an unbiased seeker of truth will keep on trying to find that, endlessly.

    Elliott Wave: Wave 5?

    Right, and if it turns out different you will say "oops, this wave way back here wasn't really a wave at all"

    Elliott Wave: Wave 5?

    I feared the enemy when they screwed up the twin towers but now I think they are slightly comical. Wave 5 must be where we wake up from our analysis induced slumber, realize it is all bullshit and kick some ass.
