Here's a look at a signal failure. ADRX gapped up and expanded immediately after the open. The first three bars all closed up. So far so good. And there was contraction after this initial impulse expansion. The dummy spot was the NR7, inside bar at 11:00 am. But it didn't work, obviously. The...

Exactly. This person is a deeply disturbed mental patient. But because of his position and his wealth, it is taboo to suggest this. As I've said before he needs our sympathy not scorn. I hope he gets help from a competent physician/therapist soon.

Look, there are two separate issues here, ok? And the problem is that you are mixing them up. First, is there something illegal going on in terms of SHO? If yes, and you have the evidence, sue the bastards. If no, then there is no discussion. AFAIK OSTK nor anyone tied to them has provided...

Is anyone familiar (or using) this strategy? It is in a book called "How to make $1M in the stock market automatically!" <img src="http://www.aim-users.com/cover.gif"> There are detractors of course, saying that the author had 20+ years to put into action and wasn't a millionaire when he...

psytrader, I'm not really sure what you're referring to since I'm a discretionary trader and have never said I use a 'system'.

what do you think they've been doing from the moment you started this vapid thread up till now?

Small bet. I had much conviction that things would turn out ok mostly based on sentiment and fundamentals, but since this sort of longer term trade is new to me, I didn't want to tie up a lot of capital (in case it went sideways) or lose a lot (in case it went down). Anyway, we'll see how it goes.

Well, things seem to have turned around and the stock is also reflecting that. Its going to be tough sledding getting through all that resistance and I expect a bit of rest is in order in the short term. But hopefully the ship has been turned around. I've spoken to Hill (prez) and feel he has a...

sweet :D

Cripes! I never thought of that. I am using IB - I'll look into toggling that option on if its off. Thanks. And fwiw the orders were GTC limit.

ok so I've got an limit order at or outside the NBBO on a security that trades on NYSE or AMEX. But it doesn't show up in after hours and pre-mkt ! For example, right now the specialists wacky and wide spread is shown, but my ask (which would cut the spead to less than half) is not shown in...

Ouch ! Anyone else see the long term H/S formation on OSTK?

Has anyone ever had this idea? Allow shorting of any security on the stock exchanges as long as the position is intraday. That is, no requirement to borrow as long as you initiate and cover during regular mkt hours. Wouldn't it cut through all of the beaurocratic mumbo jumbo? wouldn't...

Anyone updating to the new Java? I'm reluctant since the last time it was a bloated mass. I had to to run IB's TWS. But I'd like to know if there's any good reason to update now. Thanks.

Don't you guys read Hulbert's stuff?!? Oh never mind.

Ha ha! :D Good man. Where was GROW mentioned previously on the board? I can't find it and a search for the symbol isn't helpful since its a word as well. :confused:

Beauty: BIDU Beast: RFX

An idea I've been toying with is to add a sort of filter to the 'dummy' criteria. Without making it too complex, that is. Something like taking signals from NR and/or inside candles. The advantage of this sort of filter is that it ensures that you have a tight stop loss. The disadvantage is that...

Its safe to say that pretty much any sort of filter for 'unusual' activity would have picked up MRK today.

CL, nice catch but I can't open the link. No the best was (back when I was actually talking to him) when he seriously responded to my gobblidigook satirical writings. I actually fell off my chair reading it - never in a million years did I think he wouldn't catch on that I was making light...
