    Anti-Jack Trading

    If you don't believe that there is a broad conspiracy to impoverish the rich through the stock market, look at yesterday. Bad news, the market goes up! Today. Good news, the market goes down! I am monitoring NQ while Pleco is away for any signs of Un-American activity. Yesterday any one who...

    Dastardly photos faked by the Harold Stassen's Stalinists! Have you seen Jack's stock photo? Don't let the aristocratic bearing and the perfect tux fool you. If you examine it closely, you'll see he's looking left!

    Anti-Jack Trading

    I'm tired of this stonewalling from the Jack crowd! Put up or shut up! Meanwhile I have sent my trusty ichthyofaunal alter ego and his loyal if dull Watsonian sidekick Dr. Deco on a sweeping reconnoitre into the heart of the heartless enemy. Even as we speak they are cozying up to the...

    Response to Anti-Jack

    Steve46, I believe you are stonewalling. Neither your responses in the referenced thread nor here contain a shred of strategy trading thought, whereas the posts you detest so much collectively did. That tells me all I need to know about you. It's YOU who are the irrational bitcher. I traded...

    Can it be done on ET?

    Now that the voting rush has subsided, would the thread poster care to comment on the results? Or is he stonewalling?

    The Psychopathology of Everyday Trading

    I am obliged to add to the list of grievous memory lapses the poster who pontificates about his trading acumen, failing to mention until months or even years later that he barely breaks even or runs a small loss. While his persistence is to be applauded, his perspicacity is not. This underlines...

    my current setup

    Was looking at the CBOE emini Russell 2000. Didn't know CME had one. Still, 8 ticks is a huge stop.

    my current setup

    Uh, guys, isn't a 0.8 stop breathtaking for a tick of 0.05?

    my current setup

    Way too complex, I'd say. I count ten trade parameters, and I think it's just shit luck or temporary randomness that it works. Whoever it was said you could test it doesn't know dick. And that's not including the rules you probably didn't mention. I mean like trade length, time of day, volume...

    Old Possum's Book of Practical Charts

    While you half-wits are arguing about something as absurd as VWAP, you have totally missed today's lesson. Classical TA is alive and well. Between 7:30 and 8:45 PT we witnessed a perfect triple top. Then between 9:15 and 11:00 we saw a textbook head and shoulders formation. I don't understand...

    Managing Mind/Body

    Don't mince words with me, boy. Your post was phrased as an analogy or metaphor. A paradigm, in anybody's dictionary, is "an outstandingly clear or typical example or archetype". If you meant it to be paradigmatic, it should have used a trading example. Your whole approach is symptomatic of a...

    Managing Mind/Body

    I am not surprised that Roanoke did not condescend to answer. Your baseball analogy is all wet with references to visual and kinesthetic elements that have no counterpart in trading.

    Is $5,000 enough to get started with trading?

    That depends solely on how much money you want to lose.
