I recall about a decade ago I was heavilly "invested" in a Canadian company called Nortel Networks. During the peak of the Tech bubble it was the darling of tech companies in Canada. I watched as it plunged from about 130 to about 75 when I finally got out. 10 years later, the company is now...

Poor Beau. You're off to a rather painful start in 2012. Down almost 6% in the first week of trading, -15% annualized since inception. http://covestor.com/kc-capital-management/quantitative-etf Look Beau, I think you better stop telling me to get professional advice. You're not the...

SIM trading doesn't train you psychologically. "17 of 19 wins", is one of several strategies. This is called scalping, and it is easilly automated. It works very well in certain market conditions. However, you have to be extremely strict with your stop losses. I have found this very...

Bwo, when are you going to learn? Everybody starts from somewhere. As long as you are playing with money you can afford to lose, go for it. I don't believe in the SIM trading approach. I think it delays a person's progress because it conceals reality. You learn your way, and I'll learn...

I feel for you and hope to duplicate your success. :D

Yes, while I'm up 14% on 19 trades of which only 2 were losing. If I keep this up every day, i'll be a multi-millionaire by the end of the year! So take that! :D :D

How come some days I seem to have the touch of "God"? Only two trades of 19 were wrong today. Jack, how did you today?

Here comes Santa Claus! Here comes Santa Claus! Right down Santa Claus Lane! Vixen and Blitzen and all his reindeer are pulling on the reins. Bells are ringing, children singing; All is merry and bright. Hang your stockings and say your prayers, 'Cause Santa Claus comes ...

Jan 4, 2012 :D

Really? Gee, I am so disappointed. I was so thrilled with the amazing fact that not only did 2011 begin and end at close to the same price, but the first day of 2012 ended on exactly the same price as the ending of 2011. :D :D

Wish Bubba a happy new year for me! :D :D

'cause you aint relying on BWOL quantitative (easing).

I think you're all a bunch broke wannabes. :D :D Happy New Year, guys! To hell with the nonsense about the world coming to an end this year!

So is the horse. :D...

Yes, yes, and you know what else? The Pope is Jewish! And as for your New Year's crack, I'm here with my wife about to enjoy a nice movie and bottle of wine. Nice relaxed way to bring in the New Year. Well, I'll be enjoying the bottle of wine. She gets juice only. Wine and pregnancy...

... and your significant other's name is "Bubba". Does he provide the soap?

:D :D Ok, but I was actually just teasing the guy who boasts about 5 million. Just teasingly suggesting he's broke and living off of a welfare check and food stamps.

... living on food stamps.

Playing monopoly with the kids again? :D

Oh, I certainly plan to keep looking. Optimizing the candlesticks isn't effective. I've coded all of this, forcing the code to look for certain candle patterns. This doesn't work. The simplistic approach is most effective. Green:Long; Red: short; hold for 2.5 candles. Greatest draw down...
