I hear ya, it's a mess isn't it? If you don't mind, could I add you to the list of people who are interested in discussing rather than making fun of things they don't understand?

Childs Play, lie down in your bed and wait for pain. Focus all 100% of your mental attention on the pain. I really believe this is the basis of "Faith Healing." Try it, and tell me if you like it. It has nothing to do with trying to make the pain go away. Just concentrate on it, and...

ok, but just remember, this is the psycho forum, not the trading or trade management forum. Your infatuation with my particular trading strategy which just happens to be working at the moment is troublesome. The real battle goes on inside the mind. Both for the predictors and the money...

a good money management strategy will put you in, sometimes at a profit, sometimes at a loss. so, I have very little in common with a breakout trader, and conversely with a Martingaler. Because good money management requires you play both sides of the aisle. And show no allegiance to either...

worst case drawdown is 100% another thread asked, "What was the last hurdle?" My answer was, "Overcoming the fear of losing it all." I am very conservative. The hardest part was buying something that was going up or had already gone up. You almost always get bad fills at the worst...

just like my local hardware store. They've been in business longer than I have been alive. One year they bought a whole load of snow shovels and it was the first year in a long time it never snowed all winter long. They didn't go broke trying to "predict" it would snow. They manage their...

yeah, you got burned trying to "predict" and "Like a dog returns to his vomit, a fool returns to his folly."

as a matter of fact, what is it in the state exchanges? 400% or less over poverty you qualify for Medicaid. How is that bad? Isn't that what we want is to make sure the poor can get healthcare without showing up in ER and sticking the hospital and in turn all of us whether we are insured or...

yeah, that's my point oh well it's probably a moot point, looks like the way things are going medicaid will be expanded. Which I kind of like, because I don't like bitching about money until the poor are taken care of. But I don't see that as doing anything but driving prices up even higher.

ok, that makes two of you Have you read the posts on this thread by the usual suspects? I'll ask you. As it stands now, people simply can't afford the new higher premiums, especially if you throw in 5k out of pocket before the deductible is satisfied. They'll have no choice but to go...

what is my viewpoint? Health insurance is confused and used interchangeably with health care Heath insurance is purchased to protect my assets It has nothing to do with my healthcare piezoe is one of the few people who understands the problem is healthcare costs. I merely asked...

Well piezoe, since you seem to be the only intelligent person who posts down here, tell me what you think Like the man told me, there are two methods The drip method and the bucket method I don't like either It seems to me the only way to get healthcare costs down to a respectable...

here we go again if you want your child to be an employee, send them to college they take young entrepreneurs and teach them how to become employees and when they can't get jobs it's the governmennt's fault for crying out loud, it's no longer for the fed to monitor money supply and...

worthless dollars? a dollar will buy more gold today than it did a few years ago it's holding it's own and even gaining against many other currencies

yes, that is why I try to stay spread. I'm willing to give up the big lucky move in my favor in exchange for protection from the bad move. It really doesn't matter if I get stopped out or not. The stops just gradually reduce position size on losers. So the market can be going crazy, but I...

it's been an awfully long time since banjo ever posted a positive link maybe one of these days he will finally be right meanwhile, I am up over 20% YTD in my conservative stock mutual funds nobody ever pays any attention to the chicken who looks up and says, "As far as I can tell, the...

might a suggest more of a money management strategy? first off, you will never read about me because I never commit all my money to one position but I do, like you said, start off with a 94% commitment if I'm right, I make a lot of money on that trade much more and with less risk...

people have tried to arb es vs spy for years, if there is an opportunity, it only exists for a micro second, and somebody bigger and faster than you has already pounced on it. There are some very good arb opportunities in forex. Not against futures and spot, but between the various...

you know you are getting old when more than 50% of your thoughts are memories about the past it's just math nothing wrong with getting old but if you don't want it to start happening to you allow yourself to think 50% or less about the past and force yourself to think 50% or more...
