Hi jr07 This might not have anything to do with your situation but it is a common problem that if a trader misses an entry (for whatever reason) example.. you should have got long and remained long for the last few months during this up trend. when the long entry was missed or maybe exited...

Hester, Hello again. You might do ok with your stragety but just a warning. If there was one thing that I wish I would have done different in my earlier years of trading it would be this. " no counter trend trades" You can get lucky sometimes but I really think that it will bleed most new...

Hester, Nice move on the real estate sale. I like my house and am glad to still own it but I wished that there would have been a way for me to short it several years ago then buy it back later. Post away. Good luck in your trades

I also have often thought it would be nice to have the ability to split eminis. I have always loved the ability to scale in and out of positions and I think more traders would take longer term positions with the eminis if they could scale into a position with less than full contracts. i dont...

Jonbig04 Thanks for the great work on putting the mess into understandable context. I am going to print this out and have my kids and some of my friends read it. I have tried to explain it to them but they just look at me dazed and confused. I think your explanition is just what the doctor...

You are right about that. My daughter now 13 has her license but it pretty hard to compete with the internet and her cell phone. She sends and receives texts all day long but when I try to put a mic in her hand she gets shy. We still sometimes use 2 meter simplex to do some local talking. I let...

Hey Eight, Nice to see some other hams on the forum. The bands have been pretty dead. I made some good 6 and 10 meter contacts during sporatic E events but nothing much on sun activity during this cycle. I also have an HF mobile rig in the truck but I have pretty much left my antenna tuned to...

I think BLSH is having a hard time buying into the fact that things are fine and we should all go back to our homes and spend money. I also dont see any reason to think that the bottom is in. It has nothing to do with me being short or long. I just dont like the media blowing smoke about how...

A cb radio sometimes sounds a bit like the pit Sun spots are near the 11 year low right now but are starting the next up cycle. Market soon continues downcycle:confused:

thought I would comment that my current short positions and I will also add to them are TWM ultra short russell, FXP ultra short China, DIA, SPY and AAPL. Have Fun

just another worthless opinion but ... I think a majority of the shorts have had to cover helping to fuel this uptrend. I think that the bulls are dug in pretty good. But I also am seeing this up trend running out of steam. Like always if a small reversal starts to the downside it could easily...

I am not calling dooms day quite yet but I have to agree with ByLoSellHi on this one. I think things are alot worse than we are led to believe. The health of the economy depends so much on the overall psychology of the U.S consumer. Hopefully the masses will buy the BS and think that the worst...

I was looking forward to your thread. What happened.

The truth is, I would have blown it without the disclaimer also.

Michael, I loved both your books. They are sitting on my shelf among the small handfull of trading books that I consider worth reading and recommend to other traders. the other end of the shelf sits the 20 + other worthless trading books that I wasted money on. Keep up the good work. Note...

I am hoping you convince lots of other people to get long because it will make the trip back down that much more interesting. I have traded since 1986 and i will admit that fighting the tape is a sure way to the poor house but I think that there is still some ugly downside ahead. I will trade...

I dont see any thing other than B.S. that can keep the economy from further downward direction. it is very possible the bulls can push the market a bit higher before they realize that they are in hope mode. The short term trend is up but I really think the run for the exit will be ugly. I...

since i was a child I discovered that I could see and actually design and build things im my head. I did this mostly at night, It was never a problem. I eventually got to sleep. when I got older I found that my most productive time was from about 9pm until sunrise. The ability to really focus on...

open up a universal account at IB and trade futures or currencies then you wont have any PDT issues. You will only be able to trade 1 futures contract at a time and about 200,000 currency Good Trading
