    Weekly Poll: Buy Dips or Sell Rallies During Expr Week?

    I'm already short from Friday. There is a possibility of a trend change, but no confirmation yet. Nothing large because you don't know what nonsense will come out over the weekend (and because there's no confirmation of a trend change). I have quite wide stops. I'll add to the shorts if...

    What was the ***last*** thing you had to master before becoming profitable?

    WTF ? Cant believe market is going up like this !!!

    WTF ? Cant believe market is going up like this !!!

    The customer would finish the tale of his perplexity and then ask: "What do you think I ought to do?" Old Turkey would cock his head to one side, contemplate his fellow customer with a fatherly smile, and finally he would say very impressively, "You know, it's a bull market!" Time and again...

    WTF ? Cant believe market is going up like this !!!

    From Reminscenses: Slow as my progress seems now, I suppose I learned as fast as I possibly could, considering that I was making money on balance. If I had lost oftener perhaps it might have spurred me too more continuous study. I certainly would have had more mistakes to spot. But I am...

    China Says Fed Must Explain Bond-Buying or Endanger Recovery

    Why is Jim Rogers a joke? Please post why you think this. Rogers makes LONG TERM predictions. I've been following them for years. I don't think he has ever made a wrong call (remember this is LONG TERM i.e months to years to decades, not day trading).

    Britain in dire need of cash

    Um, no. Great Britain technically refers to England, Wales and Scotland (plus a bunch of smaller islands). The UK is England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland (plus a bunch of small islands)
