    Do you see patterns in Random Walks?

    Yes... this is the best simple answer. To add, I believe there are environments when the market behaves less randomly (usually during panic selling... it's tough to reverse momentum when there is obvious liquidation). But for the most part the market does act random enough to prevent traders...

    Do you see patterns in Random Walks?

    Simple coin-flip model will suffice. Please don't get too philosophical and say that a number generator is not truly random... it's random enough.

    Do you see patterns in Random Walks?

    If someone can post a candlestick random walk then that would be great. I don't use Tradestation. I think the gaps will give it away on the candlestick chart.

    book : Speed Traders

    I'm halfway done with the book and I'm pretty disappointed. There's just too much filler information, probably inserted from the author's grad school thesis. The personal insights of the guys that he interviews are somewhat vague. Obviously no one wants to discuss strategy. It's too...

    Do you see patterns in Random Walks?

    I'm interested in the more esoteric technical analysis and why people believe it (against all evidence)... Aside support and resistance and some momentum patterns, the rest of TA seems like nonsense. Academics have tested TA strategies for half a century and they all call it bullsh1t. There is...

    what human can keep up with this ?

    I was long yst after the close... I had a nice unrealized profit on the open but sold at 9:45am when we got to ysts lows. Literally sold at the low of that move... Sucks, it is what it is. Trading is tough. If only I was a hindsight trader like some of you ET guys then I would be managing $5B...

    What effect will the Fed talking this evening have on the market??

    Can we print enough money, get some financing from China and Japan, and just buy all of Europe? Seriously let's get a loan from China and buy all of Europe. Country M&A.

    What effect will the Fed talking this evening have on the market??

    No offense but the DOW is the worst mainstream index. 30 random companies. The S&Ps will just churn... what can the fed really do? Inflate the currency even more to make stock prices look better?

    3 Minutes : FOMC Meeting Announcement

    We're only down like 9% YTD... There's no panic yet as much as concern. I cant buy a intraday bull flag after so much down-side momentum. This seems like no mans land here. Keeping the power dry for now.

    Hahaha!! S&P on a warpath. Downgrades Warren Buffet's BRK

    I wonder if Mr. Buffett will be able to sustain his lifestyle after his networth goes from $50B to $25B... Probably will have to reduce the amount of Coke that he drinks

    Al Brooks Trading Best Pice Action

    Sorry for posting my "aggressive" opinions... The guy is a charlatan in my eyes so I'm just giving my 2 cents on a public forum. I apologize if that frustrates you. I would love to see his audited P/L of 20 yrs since his strategies seem like such bullsh1t... that would make me a believer...
