    Can't eat gold.

    The odds are much more in my favor than that of most of the people who only know how to hunt for meat at the neighborhood grocery store.

    Can't eat gold.

    In your original post you said that you "need all three to survive". That simply isn't true. As I have already said in a collapse scenario gold is going to be worthless since it will not improve survivability. Based on this latest post from you it seems that you agree, so I guess we are on the...

    Can't eat gold.

    Which is why learning to grow and/or hunt your own food is paramount for survival. Don't get me wrong I am not some paranoid idiot that is preaching doom and gloom. I enjoy hunting, fishing, and learning how the native Americans lived anyway. I have been doing these things since long before...

    Can't eat gold.

    You should go back and watch The Road Warrior. Tell me what use gold or silver would have been. The valuable commodities will become food, water, fuel, and of course guns and ammo. In a total collapse of the economy where the dollar becomes as useful as toilet paper, most people are not...

    Can't eat gold.

    The problem is if the "stuff" really does hit the fan, no one is going to want gold either. In a post apocalyptic world three groups of people meet. The first group has a lot of gold and silver but nothing else. The second group has a lot of food and water but nothing else. The third group...

    Quit Trading and become a life guard.

    Better yet, get a good laptop and wi-fi setup and trade WHILE working as a Lifeguard. Watch the babes while waiting on your next trade setup. Just be sure and use stops in case you actually have to go save someone.

    Technical Analysis = CRAP

    Well that can vary based on the individuals trading plan. I have seen plans that use channels, plans that use Bolenger Bands, plans that use Support/Resistance lines, etc. In the case of channels the distance between the entry point and the opposite channel line should be 3x greater than the...

    The American Dream has been shattered for highly skilled immigrants.

    No it failed in an OVER-regulated market.

    The American Dream has been shattered for highly skilled immigrants.

    "The American Dream has been shattered for highly skilled immigrants." Let me fix that for you: The American Dream has been sucked out of America for everyone, by too many immigrants.

    Technical Analysis = CRAP

    Distance from entry point to exit for profit target price should be 3x the distance between entry point and stop loss exit point.

    Technical Analysis = CRAP

    Which is why my first sentence was about money management. As long as you only risk a small % of your total account per trade, risk as close to the SAME % as possible per trade, only take trades with a 3:1 reward:risk ratio, and take the higher probability trades, you will come out on top. This...

    Technical Analysis = CRAP

    I do agree with you that money management is probably the most important aspect of trading. However, the quoted sentence is probably the most quoted but completely WRONG statement about the market that has ever been said. While it is true that at any given time the market can only go up or...

    Technical Analysis = CRAP

    While most of this is true, I still say that the reason that proper technical analysis works is because enough people believe that it does. This includes ALL of the automated trading systems out there. I highly doubt it would be possible to build a fully automated, high-frequency, intra-day...

    WHY is Baron and ET SPAMMING me now?

    I will try this. I don't want to use a trash email because I do like getting the notifications for replys to threads, just not the spam. On a similar note...NO ONE has my real email address....not even family or friends. I run my own mail server and every single person, company, or website...

    WHY is Baron and ET SPAMMING me now?

    I found an unsubscribe button and it said it unsub'ed me but those unsub buttons in emails rarely work. In most cases it only confirms to the spammer that the email address they spammed was valid and makes them double their efforts. Hopefully Baron will at least honor these unsub requests.

    WHY is Baron and ET SPAMMING me now?

    I am now getting SPAM from: "AMP Global Clearing<baron@elitetrader.com>" How can I stop this nonsense? Baron needs to stop violating my trust and abusing my email. I boycott sites and companies that employ the use of SPAM so Baron has only ensured that I will not use AMP Clearing or Ninja...

    Which Republican Candidate will be best for our economy?

    You may just be right. They already did that in Argentina. (See link below.) Maybe that was the test run for the US? If so then the only question left is how can we position ourselves to get a piece of the pie when the shit hits the fan? http://www.oftwominds.com/blogaug09/KaPoom2CHS.htm

    Which Republican Candidate will be best for our economy?

    At this point I couldn't care less who caused the problem. We can point the fingers and play the blame game AFTER it's fixed. The dumbest thing we could possibly do is to stand around pointing fingers at everyone, doing nothing else, the whole time the country is circling the drain. Who knows...
