Freedom of speech makes it much easier to spot the idiots. And humble with it. Makes the heart glad. :D I'm curious to know why you think that anyone would want to share their hard won knowledge with you. If you are dumbfounded by this statement then you might want to reread your...

The combination of dumb and arrogant shouldn't surprise me but it does ... just a little. Is this guy so stupid or ignorant that he doesn't realise how poor the question is or is he one of the regulars just stirring it up for a bit of fun? I favour the second given that he keeps ignoring...

I don't think its me that missed the point. But if you think so then thats fine because its your question. I'll be interested to see what sort of answers the question achieves. Good luck.

You need to give some information about what you want to trade and what timeframe you are planning to use. Perhaps even how you plan to make money. Futures, Options, Forex, Stocks, EOD, EOW, 5 min, 5 tick, system trading, trend following, fading with options, personal brilliance, etc etc...

Or, "What is the single most important element of brain surgery?" - staying awake - finding the patient's head - cutting thru the skull - stitching them up - billing their family - luck Hmmm .... there seems to be an element in common. And what you do while you have the skull open...

Seems I'm not the only one who saw lots of heat and strong opinions ... but few facts. 1) More FireFox Pros And Cons In the current article on Firefox ( http://www.informationweek.com/story/showArticle.jhtml?articleID=160900911 ) my opening argument was "FireFox is a good browser, but...

I enjoyed your reviewers reviews Thunderdog and found myself agreeing with much of it including his apprecaition of Mark Douglas and his concerns about Ari. I shall dig my copy of TraderVic out and give it its first rereading in 5 years. On the original topic "are there any good courses out...

LOL, very good Saturnine. I guess that attempting to add light to anything in the Microsoft/Open Source discussion just brings strongly held beliefs out of their dark corners. For the record, I don't/haven't worked for microsoft or any affiliated co. Nor have I sold their stuff. In my...

You don't appear to have read the referred to article. I would certainly believe the security team at CERT before I believed either my experience or yours. You are falling for the "small sample" error --- hopefully you don't do that when trading or you will really have a saturnine...

1) FireFox Pros And Cons For an industry built on logic--- at their deepest level, computers are logic circuits--- blatant illogic somehow manages to cloud many issues. Take FireFox http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/ , for example, a very nice browser from Mozilla.Org...

"real-estate firms and others. The legislation would require auto loans to be repaid in full under Chapter 13; otherwise, the automobile would be repossessed. Under current law, only the present market value must be repaid." So now, after you get ripped off and bankrupted trying to repay the...

FWIW I use trend continuation signals to enter and trend ending signals to exit. BUT ... I am asymetric wrt strength. I require a strong signal to enter and a weak signal to exit (so I don't just stop and reverse). For me this effective.

Something that might be useful to people trading hsi. I spent some time highlighting the holidays that were not weekend days. <img src="http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/attachment.php?s=&postid=723943">

Great post Mokwit, I spend a lot of time watching the pushes back. If you have a direction already its often a good opportunity to exit and fill a bit better with your original stops. They do get me at times though :eek:

Personally I think that one last strong rise (maybe taking a few years) would be beautiful market behaviour. This would suck in the last group after it broke recent highs including those selling now at what might prove to be lows. Perhaps the "stock markets" and "housing markets" are...

Based on the recent history in Australia 2002 Investment in housing going up (stocks weaker now) House prices rising strongly Developers strongly invested themselves Some see potential for top (too early as always) 2003 Price rising strongly (doubled some places) More books on real...

The fact that something is taught doesnt imply that the readers really learn much. I could cheerfully trade with nothing other than trendlines (db would say I didnt need them but I like them) although I also use a couple of mas (which to me are forgiving trendlines). It doesnt matter if the...

kj, Yes I have thought about it and looked at traditional support and resistance, fibs, pivots (floor, open, and camarilla) and mas as potential support. I have found different forms to be effective to differing extents depending on what tradable I am looking at and I have found behaviour of...

LOL Fred, Why don't you say what you mean for a change instead of always pussy footing around? FWIW it doesnt matter whose eyes they exist in or that they do (to an extent) change for different time/tick/volume scales. It also doesnt matter that they may get penetrated to some extent...

or "a little bit pregnant" ?
