Ending a first marriage tends to kill them.

Thanks for sharing your interesting opinions.

You are far too kind. I am in person merely a flatulent old windbag. But that does not prevent me from being deeply wounded at not being taken seriously in this thread. Noobs are conspicuous by their absence. I think all the real traders who have posted here are scaring the noobs away.

We do the same thing here, except it is food for koi in the Japanese Garden of the Ft. Worth Botanical Gardens. If you have lernt anything I would appreciate knowing what it is so I can benefit from it myself. As to this being satire, I am deeply offended. I am doing my best to change my...

What part of it is bollocks? The case of the Kurds and Saddam Hussein comes to mind. I am not sure if we are disagreeing about history or simply have different cultural mindsets. Closer to home for you (I'm guessing), is the Republic of Ireland.

You must not be from here. I commend to your attention the story of "The Kingdom of Jones," also known as "The Republic of Jones" or "The Free and Sovereign State of Jones."

I like your point, but I doubt that any of those countries were as well armed to begin with then as we are now. "Come and get them!" Lot of old folks here with not long to live and not much to lose would object mightily.

The religion of rigorous system trading.

So it should read "I treat women like I treat carp?"

My chart shows 1554851. But the quote box shows 3238629. What's your problem?

What don't you like about that code? Too simple for you? I use it daily to assess my position trades. That and my lucky gold Philharmonic. Can't even GIVE something away here. Everybody thinks it's a joke. Joke attached.

A Cuban emigre gave me the best advice I ever had: "I treat women like I treat cars. I lease them."

Babelfish translated that from Louisiana Cajun French into Standard English as "All of Metarie say you be cool, Arthur! But ET will give you acid udder!"

Or in French. Equally bafffling.

Mostly from embarrassment that for over thirty years I desperately wanted to trade full time, and now I find that I don't like it much. But the actuarial tables are catching up with me. When I hit 67 they say my life expectancy is 15.5 years and my probability of death is 1.3%. With those odds I...

You wouldn't think it was so good if you could see who's tripeing it. Got my nine dollar camo jammies from Academy on. A Kel-Tec P3-AT .380 pistola in a SmartCarry holster over the right side of my groin (fortunately I dress left). I often fall asleep wearing it, especially after a half-bottle...

You can also stop in the burbs and take the metro in. RN is the one and only Redneck, sorry for the tripo. Re the big kahuna, the best trading advice I ever read was by Will Rogers: "If it don't go up, don't buy it!"

It may not improve your trading, but it definitely relieves stress. If you have grackles in your yard, shooting them helps, too.

I have PMs and email dis-a-bled because I got badly mugged once. Still haven't recovered. That code works for ANYTHING on a daily chart.

I have benefitted, if only marginally, by advice I received from ET members, usually privately. Let us suppose that you start your diseducation with a book like Achelis' "Technical Analysis from A to Z," an excellent book IMO, very inclusive and comprehensive. But how much of it is dross and how...
