    Nearly Random Entry vs a High Probability Entry

    IF what? I can read exactly one realistic IF in there and its answer is simple indeed. "IF he post trades in real time"? Gosh wow, how is EVER going to pull that off! :D Hell, damir is prepared to let you know a WEEK AHEAD OF TIME when he's going to be entering. Lol. How much more...

    Nearly Random Entry vs a High Probability Entry

    Harry, what market makers are there on the ES and NQ? The whole point is that paper trades can be considered realistic for fill purposes in these markets because in real life there's no chance your 5 lot sitting on the bid is going to scare the market away from you.

    CAPITALISM: I used to think the Republican side was clearly better...

    I don't get it. Just what is it about a government trying to better the quality of life of its citizenry that bugs you so much? It's not as though these government programs just sit around doing nothing -- though I have no doubt you are convinced they don't -- they do, in fact, provide...

    Nearly Random Entry vs a High Probability Entry

    You know, for someone who isn't out "to shoot anything down", you're doing an admirable job of it. Do you honestly mean that you can't see the point in any of this, db? Honestly? That if damir, or ANYONE, can post trades in real time -- where it can be verified by others or the 'time stamp'...

    Nearly Random Entry vs a High Probability Entry

    Harry, I think damir is talking about an intraday style of trading, although not what you'd call 'scalping'. However, since he will be trading highly liquid futures contracts, I don't foresee fills being an issue. If he posts the trades real time, a 'T', for example, signifying the moment he...

    Nearly Random Entry vs a High Probability Entry

    No, the 'fact' doesn't 'remain'. Because nobody here -- not even you, originally -- was asking for undeniable proof that either real money had been made or is being made trading this way. The point of contention is whether it is possible to make money this way. And posting real-time...

    Gordon, I'm absolutely positive that someone, somewhere in the midst of your -- believe me, I get no pleasure from saying -- moronic musings, must have mentioned that your tag line describes you better than a thousand poets writing for a thousand years ever could.

    Pascal's Wager Revisited

    I take it that you do know a thing or two about Godel, then? Maybe you can break it down for me. Wow, that's great! Now, in the interests of advancing understanding and quality of life for all us -- assuming Godel has no problem with that -- would you care to tell us why it's the "safest...

    Pascal's Wager Revisited

    I think it's interesting that ET's most energetic atheists, like axeman, Stu, FPC and Gekko -- who throw a fit at the slightest mention of the 'G word' -- are noticably silent on this thread; and that's because it challenges the entire superstructure of atheism, that's it's "the most rational"...

    Pascal's Wager Revisited

    No doubt God will come up. But the point is that God doesn't, or doesn't have to, have anything to do with it. Let's say scientists come up with a super string theory that can describe the origins of the universe perfectly, or at least far better than we understand it now. Some people are...

    Pascal's Wager Revisited

    That's the point aphie, no one has any proof of anything about God. Now, the atheists aren't idiots -- far from it -- and they can, from what I have seen (and it's a lot), easily handle all the arguments that theists throw up. So, ultimately, believing in God becomes a personal matter, as...

    Nearly Random Entry vs a High Probability Entry

    I wasn't aware that damir -- or anyone else -- was suggesting that trades called in a chatroom were sufficient proof or sufficient evidence that he could trade in such manner, to the point of entrusting him with money to manage. The simple point is that trades called in real time 'prove' --...

    Another example of why $$$MR. MARKET$$$ is superior

    Good for you mrmarket! What a gentleman, too. You could have claimed 'victory' when it closed above 57 days ago (even when it opened at 57 A MONTH ago) and yet you chose to stick to your original call of 59. Hat's off to another great call.

    Axeman, I'm going to put my Freud hat on for a moment and suggest that pride entered the picture for you so long ago that you don't even realize it's there anymore. I am quite certain you won't see it that way, but that's because you, and Doubter and I are worlds apart on this.

    Pascal's Wager Revisited

    No idea what the first sentence means. But how many people do you know that just woke up one day with a conviction? Aren't they usually formed over time? Unless you want to wait for that 'once in a lifetime' event that is going to shock your ass into a conviction, then perhaps realize...

    You are unnecessarily complicating the whole job. Or is it you that is unecessarily simplifying it? :) People had established moral values before 'gods' were invented. The invention of a God is nothing more than a convenience for having these values handed over to a 'greater power'...

    CAPITALISM: I used to think the Republican side was clearly better...

    Yeah, he's popular with Democrats, especially far left Democrats, doubt about it. But the thing is they're the ones making most noise about him right now. Works great for nomination, not so well for the election because I think Dean's considered too much of a "lefty" for the general population.

    Pascal's Wager Revisited

    Dubious or not, I would rather take conscious steps to form my beliefs rather than have them formed for me, by events and others. With respect to the truth having you as opposed to you having the truth, the issue of God has been debated, in one way or another, from the dawn of time. I think...
