This tomfoolery was brought to you by a shill (read: government/academic employee) posing as a trader. As always, the Fed appreciates your unquestioning support.

Thanks for the apolitical response, then. Anyway, your drivel did nothing for the discussion. Speculators supposedly lie and talk up the price of oil, but they don't talk it down? As if no one profits on the short side. And as if you can prove such an assertion. At least you proved my...

In other words, "I'm one of those 'blame the evil speculator' guys so here's a rambling paragraph to make my point!" Extreme is in the eye of the beholder. The consumer sees gas prices-as-oil, and they're the lowest in 4 years in some places. If Eric Holder still had his AG job and wasn't...

The funny part...there are no threads about "evil speculators" driving down the price of oil. I love how free market haters only complain when markets are at one extreme but not the other.

They're defending businesses, black-owned and white-owned, when the police aren't around (standing down?). This is what the 2nd Amendment is really about (no, it wasn't about the National Guard)...

So is the Washington Post now part of a grand conservative conspiracy as well? Two of them were recovered close to Wilson’s car, conforming to his testimony about his firing two shots there (vol. V, 226:4). After that, the remaining 10 casings were recovered adjacent to (or behind) the path...

If you actually do some due diligence (read: don't rely on HuffPo, DailyMarxist or Pravda), here's what you'll find: Witness 14 testifies it was 25 to 30 feet or a little more. Witness 34 put it at 2 or 3 car lengths (almost exactly the same as 25-30 feet). Witnes 37 detailed Brown running 15...

Well, db, this "non racially-motivated" beatdown/killing must warm your little "social justice" heart. http://www.stltoday.com/news/local/crime-and-courts/fatal-hammer-attack-on-bosnian-immigrant-not-racially-motivated-st/article_9f15bf49-c8b7-5bc3-8671-ac291f666084.html As far as crackpot...

Case in point... I just can't believe all the discrimination, though. Michael's poor mom, who assaults people over t-shirts, "only" got to speak at the UN. Shouldn't she be elevated to world dictator or something?

And politicians can do insider trading legally, which is the worst part.

Exactly. +1.

I'm questioning your presuppositons, but you don't seem to get it. Let's put this another way...what possible value is there in taking advice of anonymous people on ET with no verifiable track record? Why are you even asking in the first place?

Uh, no. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russell's_teapot There's tons of data out there on hedge fund managers, advisory services, automated trading systems, etc. Having seen much of it, the idea of any trader/system being profitable every month borders on the absurd. If you have evidence to...

You can disagree all you want, but where's the evidence? I've seen one money manager who had very few losing months, but he typically made between 0.5% to 1.5% per month. Also, I only saw his track record when the markets were relatively stable. I'm not sure how he'd do during a financial crisis.

Fixed that for you.

Yep. Any strategy that emphasizes monthly profitability follows this pattern: small profit small profit small profit small profit BIG LOSS!! small profit ... For an extreme example, see Long Term Capital Management.

Dude, stop the drama queen routine. As an entrepreneur and trader, this is the last place I'd go for serious discussions. There were some half-interesting conversations here 8 or 10 years ago. Even then, you had fakers/pikers like dbphoenix posing as traders and even mentors. You never know...

So you have time to read everyone's posting history? I guess the Canadian welfare system is treating you well. Now go take your meds...
