Your cotton-topped wife nagging you to apply to Wally-Mart? Says she needs money for a blueing? That Unsociable Insecurity won't provide? That Muddycare won't cover? But you want to stay home and watch the soaps and suck suds and surf gerry porn? If so, MWR Trading is for you! Typical result...

Neoxx, impressive dedication hardware and charting, but a quick question, if I may. Are you trading live? Couldn't tell from the mass of postings. Thanks.

Just for the record, I never say "I don't know why I took that trade". I always know exactly why I took it because I have 20 independent but self-consistent purely mechanical and totally numerical systems running simultaneously. Intuition in trading is a load of crap. If you can "intuit" it you...

I have often wished for such a forum myself. But ET has not a philosopical body in its bone. BTW, I am currently writing a little essay called "Dialogues Concerning Unnatural Trading". I observe what you posted in your attachment as well, and plan to describe it in my essay as "They See You...

I have been trying to fathom gold since before your father was born, sonny. It's too complicated. The universe of funny money rates. Short and long term interest rates. Inflation/deflation. Flow of funds. Accumulation/distribution by central banks. Production costs. New finds. New uses. Fads and...

Thank you. I had hoped no one would understand.

Comedian! You know very well you'll never get anywhere with conventional TA. The 60's are long gone. You're just baiting.

OK, so you are never wrong. How do you always take the other side of the masses?

Those of you who admire Justin Mamis as I do (though I don't understand how he is still alive) will appreciate this prehumous gift to him. I sincerely hope he is not reading this.

Well done, Gambitman! You know your classics. But those few pitiable quotes did not save him from the fiery furnace! He is cinders! Who will be next?

"The public does not analyze the action of volume."

Very clever, haha! The guy who wrote that is from the generation of Timmay's great-great grandfather. He also wrote: "Realize that you are playing the coldest, bitterest game in the world."

Le Roi de Bingo, I think the only people who read trading books are those who haven't really learnt to trade yet. Our soon to be immolated author also wrote: "A trader should be a cynic. Doubt all before you believe in anything."

One by one, I am burning all the books in my trading library, starting with the worst. If ever I get one that I can't bear to consign to the fire, I'll know it is worth keeping. But before I commit a book to the conflagration, I shall quote whatever I find most memorable in it. And perhaps...

No, no, Trader225! We want him to STAY. Hypo would never admit it, but this thread is begging Jack to continue to enlighten the great unwashed on ET. As the skeptical Enlightenment philosopher in Hypo's head and in charge of maintaining rational thought processes, I find it quite astonishing...

Dr. Duref, your admirable balance or work and play during the trading day reminds me of the powerful delusion I recently overcame, The Diligence Delusion. I used to feel guilty that trading is fundamentally parasitic, scaring impoverished widows nearly to death hourly as they watched the values...

Some months ago I noticed a statistically significant correlation: traders on ET who evidence that they really CAN trade also spell well. As soon as I learned to spell consistAntly, I started to trade consistEntly. QED.

How could they have missed spelling errors, which negatively correlate to 98% with intelligence? For example, we have here a frequent poster who is 73, claims to be from an Ivy League school, and to be a prominent author of over 30 books, who cannot spell for shit. I mean, 73 years is time...

Why are you shitheads bashing Jack? Because he's old? You punks! So this is not for you. It's something inspired by reading Jack. What is it that Hypothalamus says? "The study of Jack is heuristic?" If you are an E-Signaller, create a "helper" like this on a one minute NQ chart...

It is such a pleasure once again to see a serious thread in this forum. One tires so easily of pathetic mewlings about inability to get into a trade, or to stay in a profitable trade, or to exit an unprofitable one. As you say in this day and age, "It makes you want to bitch-slap them." But...
