    Who is buying here?

    Looks like the shorts have covered today. Tomorrow is a good day for the bulls to buy for a follow through resistance level at 11,900 and at least put the wheels back on the market. Is PPT still around?

    day trading at 16?

    Your day trading would be limited b/c of school. You could day trade only part time. Your mindset and some trading experience in MMORPG should help a bit. If you really want to day trade, you should do it. In addition to gains and losses, you will find out a lot about yourself and day...

    Who is buying here?

    Academically speaking, this is a bullish sign/less bearish sign. Volume is high today. Another bullish sign/less bearish sign. The Dow chart this year looks like the Dow in 2005. Interestingly, the Dow chart in 2010 looks like the Dow in 2004. And the Dow chart in 2009 looks like the...

    Pimco and Blackrock say QE3 on the way....

    It's all a balancing act. If you drain excess money in timely manner, then ok. Need QE3 to keep confidence up and buy time until the economy reaches escape velocity.

    Did Robert Hoffman really lose 312K in a single TF trade? Yikes!

    Yeah, you should fade his signals. If you had faded, you would have made $300k recently.

    Futuresource website stopped providing ICE quotes?

    You should not sword fight with thing unless you wear a mask/eye protection. The antennae is pointy. I would also don full protective suit like fencers. Wouldn't want to be poked/jabbed in the crotch.

    Futuresource website stopped providing ICE quotes?

    Esignal?!! OMG. Esignal is a strong avoid. This company advertised QuoTrek as a real time device around 1995. I found that it wasn't real time by comparing to another data provider. I called Esignal about this and they said that it uses FCC definition of real time. That means that the...

    HFT GOOD or Bad for Market

    The article seems to indicate market manipulation. What types of stocks was Trillium quote-stuffing? Are we talking about illiquid stocks that have average daily volume in the 100k's or liquid stocks that have average daily volume in the millions? Regardless, this strategy seems risky...

    HFT GOOD or Bad for Market

    There is no proof that HFT caused the flash crash. To this day, we don't know what caused the flash crash. It could have been a fat finger error. Sudden market plunges have happened b4 in the US and in other countries but of a smaller magnitude. Both were fat finger mistakes. Again, the...

    HFT GOOD or Bad for Market

    There needs to be a study on the impact of HFT before we jump to conclusions. If HFT adds liquidity to the market, then it's a positive b/c you get a fairer pricing. It's better to have more competition. I remember 10 years ago at Worldco when I sent my buy order directly to the specialist...

    Did you ever share your profitable trading plan/method/system/edge?

    What I am saying is that if I don't share, others won't share also. It's the turd in the punch bowl syndrome as stated by the previous poster. So, if I want another profitable system ("another option"), I would have to share. Basically, in this case, my sharing would be trading a p...

    Did you ever share your profitable trading plan/method/system/edge?

    Been to a trader meetup. Motley bunch. Most seemed clueless. Food was not good. This trader runs on food. lol. As I get better and better, I feel less and less likely to share. BUT, of course, this limits my options.

    A bit deficient in eloquence but very insightful. Effective, too.

    Did you ever share your profitable trading plan/method/system/edge?

    I understand the pros and cons of sharing anything. In this case, the cynic would think theft of intellectual property. I was wondering if there is any benefit to sharing a profitable method. Off the top of my head, you might gain another profitable method of equal or greater value. Is...
