I had the same childish philosophy about things that I couldn't do as well...when I was 5 years old. I guess you can thank your parents for your complete lack of emotional IQ.

Quit acting like you're not a fan of Lewis Black.

Do you really think successful trading is highly emotional trading?

Almost all traders are too positive and negative off the start. Any type of strong positive or negative emotion from trading after years of success means that the trader is either faking it or he is strongly going against his rules.

Thermite is not explosive you numb skull. It is a pyrotechnic composition of a metal powder and a metal oxide, which produces an aluminothermic reaction known as a thermite reaction. It is not explosive, but can create short bursts of extremely high temperatures focused on a very small...

All you have to do is look at the last year. There has been 3-4 major pullbacks. Can you expect anything else? I certainly can't.

Just a guess? We all know your exceptional Landis. Piece of breaking news about some defense stocks? Let me guess. When it's good news you buy? You....are.....a.....genius! Say hello to all your celebrity trading buddies for me. Tata now.

This could be the most ETish political thread ever.

The true buy and holders still have their money in. The investors who have taken their money out are scared shitless. Not beause of the drops over the year but because of the month to month consolidations and rises only to be followed by another horrendous drop where most of those...

I second that. I will take a passionate far left liberal over a passionate Jesus freak any day of the week. "Bush created 9/11"- I actually get entertainment out of the far left. The far right is quite funny as well sometimes. "Believe in god or suffer pain for eternity"- Now...

Basically. That is one thing the pacifists cannot understand about Israel. If you were to take all the people out of Israel and fill the entire country with the very same pacifists in a month half of the country would be armed to the teeth just like present day and the other half would...

Do you really want to have war with Israel or do you just enjoy a weekly bashing of Jews? If you want war then you have got another thing coming because Israel makes neocons look like tree huggers. The entire country is a barracks on steroids constantly on alert and ready to strike at...

You need a magical balance of risk and caution to be a trader. Your friends most likely have too much caution. Don't you have any experience when it comes to talking to people in the white collar community about trading? I would say over 95% have had a negative connotation about...

#1 Rule- Don't blow it. Hopefully you have more cautious genes in you then risk taking genes. One of my biggest pieces of advice is to never trade a cent in the market until you have personally studied the market for around 6 months, 5 days a week, 8-10 hours a day. Seriously, play it...

That statistic makes sense if you count everyone who has ever tried to day trade. However a large majority of "day traders" blow their account within a couple weeks to a month and that is that. They may take a break and go at it again doing the exact same thing with the exact same results...

The reality is that the nonexistence of god is not a fact. The reality is that the existence of god is not a fact. That is why I am agnostic. Look it up genius. Also could you provide me with a couple of your superficial, totally off the mark insults. I want to look more...

Do you believe in reading comprehension?

Thunderdog. Do people who have meaning in life actually start online threads dedicated to the hatred of people who have faith in god? In reality you are portraying your own lack of meaning in life because you are focused on a lack of meaning among other people. Good people don't go...

So I take it -18% weeks are normal for you? Do you even realize how irresponsible that is? Do you even realize how fast that would blow an account? Small picture traders who live with the hopes of riches after 240 trading days are pathetic.

Successful trading is boring trading. With your grand style of trading you should be on your knees thanking the trading gods that you are only down 18%. I am not saying your strategy is impossible when it comes to making money. I am saying however that almost all successful traders...
