    The TARP program, and others, show why equity bears will ALWAYS fail!

    I notice that people here call TPTB clueless. Why would you say that? These people have an agenda that is so complicated it is actually very simple "inflate away the debt" The only risk is whether the mechanism to encourage people to spend and therefore "inflate" will work or not...

    TZ Why does it bother you so much what other people post. This is only ET, it is not as though it is a collection of serious traders.

    Roubini: "Worst Yet to Come": Hunker down for more massive job losses

    The fun really begins when Santa starts shedding Elves after Xmas when inventory levels will provide another platform for layoffs, job sharing and "voluntary" reductions. Every month that goes by reduces the govs. almost non existent options. Did I mention the constantly falling tax grab...

    TraderZone Well I did give you the opportunity to re read my post, but you chose the PRIZE IDIOT route instead. Anyone who has reached sim stage will tell you that the strategy I outlined is an impossible spoof designed to suck in Idiots like yourself who do not pay attention to what they...

    Making my use of stops more methodical and effective

    TZ I cannot urge you strongly enough to carefully reread my post. A combination of your immense reasoning powers and a full appreciation for what is and what is not possible, will lead you to the conclusion (more slowly than some others) that my stop placement, when applied, will permit...

    Can linear regression analysis really predict the future?

    It seems a pity that such an interesting thread as this has run out of steam. Perhaps we need to wait until "the LRA traders" get home after a busy day and can log onto ET. I remain as enthusiastic as ever that someone can push forward and show how to translate LRA into profits. I even...

    Tail wagging the dog... dollar or equities?

    Glad it makes sense to you because to some of us it is horrifying and it is not likely to have a happy ending. In fact there will be no ending, just a lower standard of living and expectation all around

    Tail wagging the dog... dollar or equities?

    Excellent question. The dollar is softening principally on worries concerning the deficit and the markets are being engineered up on the largest "carry trade" in history principally to reload the banks and offer an offset to foreign creditors. Commodity currencies are simply reacting to...

    Can linear regression analysis really predict the future?

    I gather you want to position yourself in front of the herd. Can you be more specific about how you would use LRA (or anything else for that matter) to achieve this goal.

    Can linear regression analysis really predict the future?

    Help me out with this example please. It is clear from the postings that there are some very clever maths people onboard Here is a breakdown of strikes (orders) placed during a single day and it is representative of most days........ 0-10 ... 80,000 11-20 ...10,000 21-50...

    Can linear regression analysis really predict the future?

    What has this laboratory outcome got to do with the reality that only a very small number of flippers control and manipulate 85%+ of the market. I can easily grasp the isolated math of your probability example, but I think you are in need of a greater level of thought and direction when...

    Can linear regression analysis really predict the future?

    there is very little to fight for I am afraid. Each day a small number of traders place a variable number of trades totaling a large proportion of the daily volume. If it makes you feel good to call this reality "random" then go ahead and knock yourself out. If you prefer to call it "non...
