    I'm Home MaMa

    There is NOT supposed to be a direct correlation between the nasdaq comp and the qqq's. One is a composite of 5000 or so stocks (not sure of the number, but it is huge), and one is the composite of 100 stocks. Of which a half dozen make up about a third of the weighted average. So when Intel or...

    Trading only career that doesn't require people?

    Chas, i think you made your point pretty well. You obviously also have the good sense to know when to walk away from something. A very important characteristic. Especially for a trader. Cash Coyne? From Vegas? Too good to be true!:) :p Great nickname. Had a ladyfriend from Japan named May Pan...

    Trading for a living....full time....only income

    OK, point well taken. I just always think back to a friend of mine who thought he wanted to trade. I advised him against it because I thought his personality was not right. I talked about him in my "successful trading" thread. He watched so many stocks, he couldn't see the forest for the...

    Trading for a living....full time....only income

    Trading IS stressful. It is just that for some people it is TOO stressful, and there is a difference! I hope your monitor doesn't take any of what you say personally:)

    Successful Trading

    No, I am not running for anything....you must have me confused with "super_ego" in his "I'M HOME MAMA" thread.

    I'm Home MaMa

    Captivated? I think insulted is a better word. And the real reason I felt compelled to respond to this guy is that I know that there are people here that want to learn, are perhaps too eager to learn, and can be hurt by someone like "super_ego". Many of the "traders" here (or aspiring traders)...

    I'm Home MaMa

    I saw this thread developing, and thought I would take a pass on it. Maybe peek in and see what it was about, but not respond. After all, last week I started a thread "Successful Trading" and I also made claims that I would reveal my "secrets to success" or whatever. So I had my day in the sun...

    Trading for a living....full time....only income

    We exist. My trading, in several different capacities, has been my sole source of income for about 14 years. (Excluding a period of time when I was unable to trade for personal reasons....during which I still observed and stayed informed as to the market activity on an almost daily basis). As...

    Trader's girlfriend

    You'll have to check them out quickly. They go to Vegas so they can go to the drive-up wedding chapels, get hitched by an Elvis impersonator, and promoted from traders' girlfriends to traders' wives. Wasn't Jerry Springer the mayor of Cincinatti at one time? Maybe Oscar Goodman should be...

    Uptick rule, anyone know why it exists?

    Controlling shareholder? Short? Interesting concept!:)

    Trader's girlfriend

    Don, I am not letting that little golddigger near my computer again. If you are interested, let me know, and I will give her the message. I know she has been eyeing my new propane tank a lot. So I am wise to her. No way is she taking it with her if she splits to hook up with you in Vegas...

    Trader's girlfriend

    Hi, I am RS7's mistress. He is really a great guy. I now have the opportunity to type a little here because he is in the bathroom beating his wife. I know this sounds bad, but really, it is not his fault. He was just shooting up, minding his own business, when she came in and knocked...

    How long until chasinfla leads Don in posts?

    I agree that Chas should keep it up, but I think it IS a big deal. While I was attempting humor in my previous post, I think that ALL the contributors here should be commended for their input. I am impressed that so little is said here that is hurtful or mean spirited. I really believe this is a...

    How long until chasinfla leads Don in posts?

    Chas does all those posts; true. HOWEVER, what is the average LENGTH of his posts? Chas does about 4.3 posts for each of Darkhorse's, but how many words per post? My vote goes to the DarkOne for quantity of words... Now if you want to go by sheer volume of kilobytes, then Chas may leap...

    Superstition, Luck and Vodoo

    Competition....yeah, a verbal slugfest! That's what we need:) (I love that term "verbose dumpage" as well. Going right into my arsenal of plagiarized wit and wisdom)

    Successful Trading

    I like this reasoning. While I have not done this, I think I will give it a try. It seems to make sense, and I see no downside at all! If it doesn't help me, so what? I have never been harmed by giving consideration to ideas.

    Stu...not bad at all. Next time though, perhaps you can give us the full text instead of a brief outline:)
