Why, that's not my point. EU lowers rates and nada US lowers rates and nada Brasil took em from 14 to 6 and nada. Yep. Massive multivariable equation and one variable controls it all, irregardless of everything else... The fed just follows the market and pretends it's the other way around...

The fed is the world's biggest dog and pony show.

I was taught, I was profitable, and I made a living on my own. I have taught others who have been profitable and have made livings on their own. With that said, every one of those people was highly screened, selected among thousands of highly qualified candidates, and most of whom were selected...

League of Legends. All time favorite - XCOM. Honorable mentions - Dark Souls, Dead Space.

I never new this stuff existed. Totally wild. If my goal were to actually look for traders in some absurd, no resume-no due diligence manner such as this, and the methodology was electronic, requiring no demands for human interaction($). The last thing I would do is create a barrier that would...

Yes Yes Hmm... avoiding confusion from how you phrased that, 'it?' vs 'getting' to 'now,' I'll go with neither, you are short at 960.

Exactly!!!! The same with vol. High vol begats high vol, and low-low. A market at rest remains at rest, and when that equilibrium is disturbed price remains disturbed and it takes time for that equilibrium to settle down. Like picking up a super ball and bouncing it as hard as you could on the...

-Ain't no such thing. As for the rest. Like I said... not going to defend it. My journey with this ended over a decade and a half ago. Still all looks about the same to me. Even the 'there is no edge, like there was in the good ol' days...' Funny thing was, I found edge everywhere I looked. I...

Part one is a rather narrow definition of financial products, for you to then use to conclude part two.

Two semesters of undergrad and you get to call yourself an economist. They are absolute morons. A PhD just makes you a moron with some skills at empirical mathematics and an expert on some esoteric topic you wrote some ridiculous thesis for which you have no practical experience with. WooHoo!!

To express my sentiments. I would say, what is a market? Nothing more than an equilibrium mechanism. No more – no less. Price is its voice. The only mechanism it has to communicate. And it is constantly seeking Fair Value, a point of neutrality, to which it will then tend to oscillate and settle...

What's really f'd up about trading, is even if someone with a proven track record, a proven methodology teaches you it, drills it into your head adnauseum, there remains a low probability you will employ it successfully. I can not today, nor ever have been able to quantify why. If I made a...

I think there are many merits to TA. It's definitely not all bs. I just wouldn't waste time to try and defend it.

You're about a decade plus ahead of yourself there.

Disappointed. I thought by 'top 6' you meant the hottest 6. 6best, who cares. Clickbait!!

It is. GDP. You use them in exchange for any goods that you wish. Print too many dollars in relation to goods = dollar be a bad boy. Not enough dollars relative to goods = dollar be a good boy. There's a bunch more to it than that, but I want to go play video games. So much fun to shoot and...

It's a twist on a meme from the greatest film of all time, American Pie, particularly apropos to when what's coming is entirely unexpected. F'n, Canadians, just don't appreciate art... no idea why we allow you to have your own country. ;)

I think... Allen Iverson and M.C. Hammer.

Doesn't marketwatch have sensationalist headlines everyday, always? Within the next few days there will be one telling me gundlach thinks we are heading for the biggest crash since the fall of Rome. Plus it says 'economist.' Not sure why anyone would waste their time reading this garbage.

Tricky question. You are partly correct because the market maker is representing fair value, the market. So yes, over the long haul, to win you need to beat the market. But that's kinda a universal truth of trading. Now, the partly incorrect is because of that 3rd party ya kinda unfairly added...
