didn't realize you were in hong kong. now i understand. peace!

let me be the first to congratulate you on the birth of your new thread!!! :) RS7

I can't believe that they can be so gullable....local press? I might expect that a junior high school newspaper reporter would fall for that one, but a real journalist? Too funny!!!!

No surprise here....20% rake plus breakage! 5 races and the track has taken 100% of the handle of one race. Tough odds to buck! Easier to make a living buying out of the money options or lottery tickets....with less second hand cheap cigar smoke:D

thanks for the responses.... what time was the MRK news? seems kinda late (or early) to have that kind of effect. Besides, the futures move seems big for something company specific...but 12 billion is serious $. Snapback from friday's rally seems to be not significant enough to cause this...

just saw futures down big....they were up nicely a few hours ago. anyone know what caused this flip?

I have been getting a lot of private messages asking essentially the same stuff. In an effort to avoid having to re-think and re-type, I will simply re-post what I wrote in another thread. Took me a while to find it, 'cause I couldn't remember where it was. But after a bit of searching, I found...

Yup, these two are full timers. But there is no reason not to appreciate the input of the part timers as well. They make their doubts and apprehensions as well as their confidences and enthusiasm interesting stuff to ponder. I find it all worth considering for those interested in this...

I am not a big proponent of legging into or out of trades. Not against it particularly either. This is a subject that has no clear right or wrong answer...or at least it can be debated forever. It is a matter of style and personality. Sometimes I will try to build positions. Usually more a...

Reminds me of an old Robin Williams routine... "I'm scizophrenic No I'm not Yes I am" Just do something....a second account? Just always be flat....accomplishes the same thing without the expense.

I am trying:) Thought I was doing better.

They get 10k a pop? Wow, maybe I SHOULD get into that business!!! Yeah, a shrink could, I guess, be of use to most traders:) I know of one guy spends a ton on a therapist to help his trading. Hasn't helped him though....the shrink in that particular case has way too much to overcome! As...

Bono, I disagree with you here completely. I think that Lundy is an asset to any thread. He says how he feels, and EXPLAINS WHY HE DOES! That is IMHO a very positive thing. If he is right or wrong is really not relevant. Trading is about decisions. He is not afraid to make them and doesn't...

No problem. I understand now that the moderator deleted the post. I have absolutely no problem with anyone stating their opinions...right or wrong. LUNDY, I am glad to see you back. I mentioned you regarding this very issue a few pages back in this thread. I defended your right to your...

Hmm...interesting that I went to respond to super_ego, and then I couldn't because he had deleted this post. Then LOW AND BEHOLD, along came an alternative post by Faster. What an amazing coincidence. Anyway, I was wondering how super/faster deduced: "I am sure that you are not in possession...

OK...suits me fine. I am a simple minded guy anyway, so anything you can do to accomodate me is greatly appreciated! As a matter of fact, instead of having to understand your technical stuff, which is not really comprehensible to my tiny little brain, why can't you just tell us all what to...

OK Faster...you are NOT Super_ego. You are just his biggest groupie!!! Fine with me. I guess I really have just been delusional. PS: How does pointing out that the NDX and the Comp. are different make me a "theorist"? Is this not a FACT?

Not a very subtle hint, is it?

Yes, this has been obvious for a while....Why he has to do it this way is anyones guess....but I guess it makes no real difference. Maybe Clark Kent needed to be Superman to get through HIS therapy too:) But Clark tried to keep it a secret...I don't think that faster even is trying to disquise...

Hey, I am not trying to win a popularity contest. If "super_ego" has something worthwhile to say, I respect him for sharing the info. I have no argument with his trading approach. I don't claim to be qualified to pass judgement on anyone's trading approach. I know I can only learn from others...
