    Censorship! What's Going On????

    http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=3621&highlight=Market+Wise This thread was censored like crazy. Not to mention Baron's glowing praise of Market Wise. BTW, Ron Mayer is Nassar's instructor, which he failed to mention in his praise of his own company...

    would this work?

    "Batting Avg" = % of trades that are winners AND Risk/Reward Ratio = Avg loss vs Avg Gain. The avg gain should be larger than the avg loss (does not have to be in theory). The batting avg can be below 50% and you can still make money if the avg gain is bigger than avg loss. You...

    How Wall Street / CNBC works...

    I love the denial that just because the whistle blower is an ex-employee, he must be lying. Who knows more than ex-employees? Maybe I am biased, but I am an ex-employee (sort of) of a now-famous snake oil salesman. I would name him, but my post would just be deleted...

    Breaking the Law?

    I got suckered into buying a car without a title - the scum bag dealer told me that the car was old enough that a notarized bill of sale was ok. Then I go to register it, and the state of GA will not issue plates because apparently it was abandoned, then picked up and sold by a salvage company...

    Limiting Beliefs

    Every time some "respectable" investor buys a stock and the spread is not a mile wide, it is because the stock has high volume, which often comes from traders. Traders add volume, which creates a more efficient market. This benefits just about everyone.
