haha, same here, I like to read though :)

right.....this is how WE manipulate YOU :)

this article explains is pretty good.... ---- (...) Direct-access trading differs from mainstream trading in how orders get executed. Direct-access software automatically searches the entire market for the best price when you send your order, or lets you choose how your orders get...

there's a big difference between your Scottrade broker and direct-access firms like IB, or MB trading.

yes, I wonder why too...down almost 2k already...it could have been worse...but the day is not over yet.

same here...i'm going crazy :mad:

are you trying to say that blacks are less racist than whites, or maybe not racist at all? why don't you open your eyes for a sec? WHAT ABOUT THIS: ----------------------- C-SPAN airs Black Media Conference where speaker Kamau Kambon, author and owner of "Blacknificent Books" says the...

I'm 100% with you on this one... maybe it's in my head, but for me it's easier to tell where the next bottom is going to be, rather than the next top.

hahaa, very true! but the country is beautiful, and safe....good for retirement. plus swiss wages are the highest in the world (if you ever happen to quit trading of course :)

hi Lato i'm Polish too, I'm located 30min South from Philly I've been living in Switzerland for over 4 years, and I'm also thinking about moving back there (or back to Poland) sometime next year.

i totally agree...I thought there will be a bounce today as well, and I was ready to cover my shorts from yesterday...but hey, to my surprise they worked out fine

well, for me prediction is if I say: "tomorow we are going up"...I don't know what will happen tommorow...but I can predict the move from a top to the first support, which happens intraday. and yes, usually I don't hold overnight. However, for the last two weeks, I would enter 5 to 6 short...

I try not to make predictions, but I've been playing the short side since Monday before the $NDX 1618 high (btw: funny, it was the fib phi-1.618 :) ) and the last 2 days were just "too good". For me it was always a sign of "the trend is about to reverse"...or we are about to crash?

I'm finally doing good, you gotta love the short side... however today was the peak, usually it means that I have to start looking for some long setups. I guess sooner or later the market will bounce back on short covering...

yes, this is the third and the smallest Expanding wedge in the last 2 years...will history repeat itself?

this thread is very funny :D looks like some people are pretty mad that areyoukidding's prediction was right at the end. some people wait for the dips, and some people wait to short the tops... and of course some are good enough to switch between the trends right away. (not me) ...I went...

Switzerland: they have pretty good rates, and your money is VERY safe

yes, I was forced to cover :mad: damn, that was a bright idea. I took a loss (still, it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, especially after seeing the futures last night)...then I re-entered some of the same positions later, in and out, in and out, so I was able to make it back, and...

I'm went short over the weekend....I took a chance again. My stops are tight, so I'm ready to cover right away if things don't go my way. I imagine that most of the people expect the markets to rally on Monday, it's like: "...well, if we had a rally after the London bombings, and...
