You actually, really thought you could come up with a profitable system on the Dow? You're wasting your time, bud! Not that the others are any better but the Dow is a joke.

Should be no problem and if there is, you can get a replacement card from Dell, pronto. They're very good at sending replacements and doing exchanges of parts.

bighog, The problem is your "gal of choice" is a whore in my book. Each hour/day with her usually ends up costing you.:D

The thing about being an "executive" of a S&P500 operation is that nowadays their yearly take-home pay is several $million which is likely more than both of us make, combined. So, more stupid are the shareholders, especially the institutional types who own the majority but hey, it's all a game...

acrary, I understand what you're saying but due to the barrage of fake "breakouts'' in the last couple of years, the difference between the Close and when the breakout trade is placed, *on average* has become negligible if not negative, again due to the fact that there is practically NO range...

ORB doesn't work in 90% of the crap out there. Not in a dead market like this. Why hype it more? Please show where it works with any consistency.

Oh, great! Another super-duper "advisory service" in disguise.

But many "traders" have no other alternatives to "trading" with their $5k. If not doing this they'd be either scratching their ass, on some online porn site, poker site or all those combined. Meanwhile, the Chinese are toiling away producing all those Christmas presents that these masses will...

What's needed is 10% interest rates! That'll get this dead market moving.

Many reasons. 1. Limited ways of making money in other venues. 2. Constantly bombarded by "easy money trading" commercials. 3. Many here *are* successful in other careers/ventures and believe they can duplicate that success in trading and do even better than the "mediocre" 90% of "traders"...

Most MF's don't short. They're long *most* of the time. If you don't think you can outperform them and you're right that the majority can't do any better, then buy them. Just don't expect to change any minds around here. People here have the sense that "I'm better than the average joe shmoe"...

What a STUPID site! Why even bother with garbage like that?

I didn't realize this is supposed to be so "American".!LOL:D That's a bad "sign" in just about any culture!

What made you think it was the thing to do do?

Sounds like you're reading books that are a bit out of your league? Probably need to figure out what you're trying to accomplish in the first place.

andrasnm, Since whatever technique you used on ETF's that long ago is likely not working now, would you mind giving an idea as to what method you employed back then?

It took you 3 years to do what?

No, I don't know of any English language web brokers with access to Japanese stocks. Sorry.

European stock commissions are too high and UK especially, has that stupid stamp duty tax. I don't know about Japan. It seems US is definetely where rest of the world goes to day-trade.

If you're a *real* shareholder, why would you trade? That's what they're thinkin'!:D
