    Backlash stirs in US against foreign worker visas

    You are confusing outsourcing with H1-Bs. H1-B is a visa status of foreign workers. Many of them first come here for higher education and then chose to stay back to work. When they decide to work they have to convert their student visa to H1-B. Others come in for consulting assignments directly...

    Backlash stirs in US against foreign worker visas

    Hiring a worker on H1-B with a Master's degree in Computer Science and a good few years experience means paying them comparable wages and paying for their H1-B processing. The reason employers hire H1-B workers is cause that is where the large talent pool is from, not because it is cheaper...

    Ninja Platform

    Yea, my experience is mainly with trading futures, index and energy and single equities. I should have stated that. I don't deal with pairs or spreads or whatever exotic combos there may be.

    Ninja Platform

    NT for discretionary trading is fine. I own a multi-broker license and quite happy with it. It has it's limitations in terms of ATM Strategies having max 3 targets, etc. However it should be fine as long you are not trading huge size and need tons of scale out points. I don't think it is...

    Why I Don't Believe in TA

    In pure price action based trading, your trades are placed in advance, before price gets there, not after. There is no lag. Yes there is extrapolation based on p(t-1), p(t-2), ... to predict p(t), but it happens between t-1 and t. There are some who wait for further confirmation by zooming...

You can pick up a chart or two of the chosen instrument and focus. On the other hand, you need a lot of patience, cause the chosen instrument...

    Buy some AAPL $450?

    Jan 2nd was the bigger down trend line, so continuation of downside, don't see any real or fake reversal. Nov 29 was a small upper channel which did make a new high, so even though it looks like a fake, it did make a new high. I would manage that by tightening stop and taking a smaller loss...

    You could look for the down trend line break and for a new up swing to be established indicating it is ready to start moving up. http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/404/aapl126.png/
