thats pretty lame. how often does that happen? I guess you could just go long SDS.

yep, the stc practice exams are basically the same as the real thing.

I was hearing a lot of opinions to sell on the Iphone release but had a feeling there were waaaay to many with that call and they were in for a surprise. So I guess we are seeing a nice squeeze going on at the moment.. maybe?

Well you cant just look at price, you have to look at market cap relative to the competition. Of course a "good" solid company doesn't always make a good stock. MSFT is a good company but its going to be a while before a 300 billion company is worth 600 bill. Although a "good" 300...

BTW, how did you get invited on to CNBC? How does that whole process work? Does somebody just call you and ask you to come on?

I thought advertisements of any kind are strictly prohibited unless you are a paying site sponsor. Guess not.

I think its a great product but WTF is wrong with these people... They act like they are camping out for something that will never again be available after today. MOOOOOORons Get a life people.

This is where I get confused also and lose the rhythm, during these high volatility areas. (which sucks because of the profit potential that is presenting itself.) Everything is very clear (channels, p.v. relationship) up to that leg down after your point 3, then I cant make sense of...

If you can make 200 or 400 a day consistently then you have a good strategy, edge, whatever you want to call it. Thats a big deal because then you shouldn't have a problem making 400 to 800 or 800 to 1600 a day. I think your focus on dollar amount is pointless...

I wonder what the merrill acquisition has done for echo.. if anything. Is echo just some kind of line item on the merrill books?

That makes sense.. thx.

Spyder, so when you say "When Price exits the blue up channel on decreasing Volume, the market has spoken loud and clear: We have drawn the channel incorrectly." is this why you drew the new green channel? If so, how did you come up with your point 1 in the green channel? Why did you...

Also why did you mark the blue channel "BO" shouldnt that have been a "FBO" since no complete bar resided outside of the RTL. after the 14:30 bar... Or is it that the bar only needs to close below the RTL for it to be considered a BO..?

I don't think thats true but I'll let spyder comment cuz I'm new at this...

A FTT can only happen when price is going from the RTL to the LTL and fails. I think you were playing a retrace of the trend and I guess anticipated a BO.

We were traversing from the LTL to the RTL so this couldnt have been a FTT anyway. (on the green channel)

Jack, in your word doc. you wrote... "We saw how volatility expansion on the RTL lead to wider channels and finally FTT's happening on the more difficult width of traverse on dominant movement" I thought volatility expansion happened on the LTL (left trend line) leading to wider channels..?

I think most hedge funds operate like mutual funds now in terms of strategies. They have longer holding periods.. #4

I thought they offered 30:1 leverage... intraday

the only thing I would expect from a prop shop (deposit required type) is good rates, leverage, good platform, 100% profits, ability to withdrawal all my equity at any time or a reasonable time, and let me trade my own style intraday wether its 100 shares or a million. The rest is up to me.
