Think you misread. The rest I've no beef with. Might be my fault for misdescribing my micro trading as scalping, especially as it can run into major intraday swings. But entries are often taken below the 1 min level.

Go for it Jahajee... give us the first post :)

Sure is, and 2009 will be a lot more scary! But wait till you see what's after that.

Tom, that is the most encouraging thing I’ve seen you post. It’s obvious you have entered into the arena where you realise how much you don’t know as well as how close you are to cracking it. That gives you a chance to dig for answers but you sure ask some questions lol. I was surprised...

If you think you have the market by the throat and it does this to you, it's time to learn a better technique. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D6mMtHqXyYc

The "revolution" happened some time ago. A new kid entered the octagon with his super computer and algos, lightening reflexes and ablility to emulate and beat every TA technique. The result was the banks threw out their TA teams and the new kids took over. Then fancy pants designed...

Funny, it was Goinglite's use of CCI that made me look at a deeper level at what I could get out of it. LOL after my last post I realised I missed the obvious one Going mentioned even though I don't use that. Going had a hot way to use CCI and I developed something completely different, but...

Nice to see you here again Going - frustrating as it is at times hehe

Tom you’re familiar with what I have written about indicators, how they assist PA, what their attributes are and how to best use them, so do what I described and start by writing out what information all indicators provide, and then do lots of homework to see how CCI functions to reveal these...

1) Then you can't trade 2) You can't provide that input 3) You are mistaken. You feel you are learning but you may never become consistently profitible 4) Try full time for 1 month and then review the hard facts. If you can work their system you might make it. If not, then trading at this...

Love these threads on indicators... it's like reading about the evolution of man. The cynics, the sceptics, the disillusioned, the searching, the failed, the creative, the narrow minded, the clever and the successful for a myriad of reasons who proclaim their faith is the only true faith, and...

BERLIN (AFP) - Three executives dubbed "Germany's stupidest bankers" in the press have been suspended from state bank KfW over erroneous transfers of more than 500 million euros (710 million dollars) to the bankrupt Lehman Brothers, the KfW said. Two board members and a top risk control...

I knew this was going to be exciting - I could just feel it all over. Now ya have it guys, it doesn't matter if PA exists if you get Jack's gift. Silva guiding spirits anyone? Feel free to chime in here before I do exorcism.

Joe, take my advice... start up a forum for traders and put silly first posts on it and then sit back and let it suck in lots of advisors, watch them correct each other and squabble as you sit back calmly uninvolved. Then get a few advertisers to come in and you can laugh all the way to the...

Funny, on black Monday Oct 19th 1987, rumours were rife on the floor that Morgan had gone under - it was such a bloodbath, down 25% on one day. 18 mths back from today those in a position to see if there was copper in the gold vault made up their minds and this ugly chart is their verdict...

The pit does have a feel - you can even be blindfold and go by volume and be able to judge the size of the trading "wave". Knowing who is on the other end of the order helps too so you can piggyback the known winners and heavy hitters. That's partly why pit traders usually make bad screen...

Goodness there's some dust now on this thread and I lost touch with this guy. Must see If I can renew contact but he was doing very well trading when I last spoke to him. I can't remember now if he was even able to make a profit on the systems he developed until he met this hot trader who...

I'm gonna love this thread, I can just feel it all over. We have evolved from indicators lag to PA doesn't exist - now that's what I call intellectual progress.

Phew! As Profit intimated in a very balanced post, there are lots of "indicator traders" who do very well. There are others who use them to assist. I could be in both groups. Oh, and I don't know anyone better at naked trading PA than myself, but I'm eager to learn anything from anyone and that...

I believe we are going to see a time in the not too distant future when those who survive will be those who knew how wise this advice was. Ignore it at your peril.
