Yes, the US's number one export is inflation. The number one import is deflation.

I would say a characteristic of compression would be a "declining range" in the bars but it is somewhat subjective. I just look for the overall shape/pattern over several bars.

Price will move up and as it approaches a resistance line for instance, the highs will become less high and the range of bars will become smaller and smaller. The price action over several bars will resemble an arc that just collapses.

Don't know of an indicator, since I don't use them but you could use price action. Say for an upmove some sighs of exhaustion may include... 1.) compression in price as it moves up. 2.) long upper wicks of the candle. There are a few others that could help but if you have an indicator...

IMHO, he's got a right to mobilize other CEO's to shift public policy if he feels current policy is not working well for his business and his shareholders. Who's going to buy Starbuck's Coffee if everyone is unemployed? I rather prefer this method of a CEO changing policy, then one who uses...

I won't argue with points 1- 4, but points 5 and 6 could be considered bullish for NG if true. If fracking is limited it will shut down alot of suppliers and reduce supply and inventory. All in all, I think the market is way to saturated with small time drillers flooding the market where...

Don't trade what the market should do, trade what everybody thinks the market should do.

They can print it, but it's not going to do a whole lot if it's just sitting in the vault, propping up the bank http://research.stlouisfed.org/fred2/series/M1V?cid=32242

Agreed, props to the OP.

I have to agree. The S&P downgrade is only a small part of this market. This fall was precipitated by the expectation in a global slowdown in growth. There is a strong possibility (better than 50/50) we are heading into a recession. A recession means most likely a bear market and this is not...

If your friend gets a 1099, that information will be furnished to the IRS from the broker and that's going to set off alarms at the IRS if they do not receive any return at all. Believe it or not it's best to file a return whether you owe or not because if you don't you will hear from them...

That's what you see when you don't use the weakening of your currency as an economic gimmmick to fein growth and prosperity.

That's hillarious! Classic buy the rumor sell the fact. Now we have to see if the 200DMA holds. If not watch out!

No boost needed. See... http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/clibrary/ctime/ As an alternate option, if your using windows, there is a COleDateTime class that stores the date time as a double. You would use the same steps to parse the datetime from string into a COleDateTime class, and...

Most likely you will use one of the sequence containers (list, deque, vector) to store your time,open,high,low,close,volume object. If you don't need to alot of inserting use the vector or deque. If you need to do a lot of accessing use the vector. Just set up a test application from which to...

Let me understand this. If the markets need regulation, but only good regulation that must mean there is bad regulation. Who's going to decide which is good or bad? I mean who's going to regulate the regulators? The CFR? Liberal hypocrisy at it's best.

Maybe, but don't underestimate the stupidity of the American people.

This is quite possibly one of the most brilliant statements I've read on E.T. Every trader and investor in the U.S. should read this. It appears to support my opinion that capitalism is dead in America and has been replaced by corporatism. Big business, loves big government and they love...

I'd start by looking at the Linear Regression Line over some time period and see if that is what your looking for.. This many times can approximate a discretionary trendline vey well. Can't say for sure unless I had some picture of what your trying to accomplish.

I'm interested in NatG only because I'm in a region of strong development. My understanding is the market is way to saturated with small drillers that are keeping supply high and prices low for the foreseeable future. So when I saw your post I was a little surprised as I've done my own...
