    Man, Trading Is Depressing Now; No Energy

    This market is putting in a short term bottom this whole week. Tomorrow (Friday) should have some huge upside as GE comes out with earnings and shorts cover. Today you could see the longs loading up into every selloff.

    Trading with yourself?

    That's not illegal, it's called a hedge.

    FRE and FNM

    A very good trade is setting up. Short the dollar, buy gold, and crude oil. Even TIPS if you prefer.

    Korn Traders Die - Wild Shoot out - Clearing Dispute

    I don't get it. To me it looks like one guy is scratching an itch on his head and another guy is leaning on a post sleeping.

    Financial Times: Depression is Possible If Central Banks Don't Force a Recession

    The issue this time with a negative fed funds rate is that it's not being passed through. Look at most mortgage rates, they have been rising since late February. The fed is engineering the steep yield curve in order to re-capitalize the banking system in short order to get us out of this mess...

    Prop firm w/ no capital contributions

    It sounds to me he's not telling the whole story. Typically the new scam is to offer no deposit and a good payout. But then you have to take their "proprietary course" which amounts to old school tape reading that applied before NYSE went electronic. The tuition is typically 5 grand. Which is...

    Barron's cover story - a contrarian sign???

    The only contrary play on this article would be a quick sharp bounce. But I haven't seen any signs of buyers committing to these levels in the past week. The overall market internals are oversold, but it's been this way for 3 weeks. This is a sure sign of true liquidation, a lot of people have...

    The next new world power is IRAQ

    Don't buy that shit paper. That scam has been going on since the inception of the war. I remember being approached a few times about it. I haven't seen any sign that this currency will continue in the future. Crude oil is traded in dollars on the world stage. There's no way the US will allow...

    **obvious Trade In Qyd And Aapl About To Occur Read***

    AAPL and the nasdaq in general are tradable for a bounce. But holding for 2-3 months is not the trade. You've got to get in and out. This market is in a downtrend and needs an oversold bounce to shake out the weak shorts. But then it's going to resume lower through late August. So in my opinion...

    Chart of the Day: The Dow in Euros (2001 to 2008)

    Until people are bullish on crude oil, and bearish on financials, this market will trend lower. Fade and huge bounces in financials. But, buy GS on very extended selloffs.

    Its time to get back into the brokers, banks and financials

    Why is everyone looking at all these shit companies in the financials trying to find a bottom. Unless you can read their financial statements and know the future, you're catching a falling knife tipped with a bomb. GS is the only financial in the US worth owning. Paulson knows how to tip...

    Need Advice

    Engineers suck at trading. You think things need to make since. You have the idea of everything acts the way it should. The market will prove stubborn people wrong. The market can outlast your idea of what's right long enough to make you puke your position on a huge loss, and then go the way you...

    Zimbabwe: billions are rarely used, been replaced by quadrillions - a million billion

    Haha, hilarious, I just saw the 5 billion note on ebay. How can this be allowed to happen. That German printing company should be tarred and feathered. The sad thing is, it's just a precursor of what's happening to the dollar. I remember noting that the fed has auctioned 600 billion of its...

    Does it matter who fills your trade?

    It used to matter. But the last year or so, they're all about the same as far as fill speed. The only ones that still suck are smart routers that most brokers have.

    "ECB raises interest rates to 4.25%"

    I'm talking yearly cycles. It's not going to change overnight. The US still needs to go through some more pain.

    What a specialist knows about YOU

    You don't need to know any of this crap. If you're a good trader, it doesn't matter what the market makers are doing. They can't affect your trade when you're on the right side.

    "ECB raises interest rates to 4.25%"

    25 BP is really nothing. It doesn't really make much difference in this environment. It was more of a symbolic gesture than a truly market affecting move. Europe is trying to lead the US federal reserve. Which won't happen. The fed will do what it wants to save the US economy even if it...
