    Dr. Deco's Cure for Overtrading

    Overtrade!! This is a very odd complaint, more of a phantom symptom if you ask me. Extensive research shows that the vast majority of ETers (god bless them) wouldn't know a real trade from a hole in the ground and the curious side effect from this self delusion is that it protects them...

    Uncle Sam wants a $2 Trillion increase on his credit card.

    the "limit" is only a number. Changing the "limit" does nothing to solve the problem, in fact quite the opposite, since the "limit" was established to prevent overspending. jjf

    Will indentured servitude come back?

    An odd question, but let us sit back and see how the americans answer it. jjf come to think of it, you can take the health care issue as an example of americans voting with their teeth instead of their minds, thus excluding them from formatting a major issue.

    Will indentured servitude come back?

    Only the elite wealthy are not in servitude in america. America was built upon the ideal of servitude, but because people were permitted to take the minor decisions for themselves ( where to live, what to drive, what to eat), over time and with the help of credit and TV, the silly buggers...

    Is the worst behind us?

    Yes you are dead, that is exactly how it works. The month following the exit of the last employee, you can let yourself go, which will show that your business has now leveled out. The month after that when you have wound up your business and you are on the unemployment roll, your business...

    Volume analysis is to be discarded as it is "too much information"

    I know that it is not my business, but you have piqued my curiosity and that of many others as well. "Are you and RN sharing a room at night?" jjf PS: I should add that in your case it would only be perfectly natural to issue an indignant and somewhat hysterical response, slightly...

    Volume analysis is to be discarded as it is "too much information"

    MandelbrotSet --------------------------------------- You seem to have a tendency to swing all over the place. One minute you are the self appointed head of a self confessed volume trader's fan cub and now you state that volume traders wont take responsibility or post live calls. God...

    Volume analysis is to be discarded as it is "too much information"

    I think that I am coming to grips with ET. Firstly you post some provocative posts in response to a silly post, wait for even silly responses and then you can build from there. It is a lot like sucking in the longs in order to build a short position. By the time the wannabes realize...

    Volume analysis is to be discarded as it is "too much information"

    Either price is trending up and you buy or it is declining and you sell. This applies to trade entries and trade exits. Fading the trend is merely an advanced risk technique for reducing risk. Yes trading is this basic, but there are other off-chart considerations to do with risk and...

    Volume analysis is to be discarded as it is "too much information"

    What has "making money" got to do with this thread. Either the use of volume gives a trader an enormous boost in earnings or it doesn't. Same thing applies to all analysis as Traders will tell you. jjf

    Boomers in Trouble: The Unheralded Economic Mega-Trend

    Agreed. But most ill health arises as the result of poor neglected self maintenance. Just as surgeons will not perform on smokers, why not apply the same rules to obese people. None of us has time to wait for gov. to do sensible things and it is far better to take care of ourselves as much...

    Boomers in Trouble: The Unheralded Economic Mega-Trend

    I suspect that the Achilles heel in years to come for the boomers will be health and health care. A healthy diet, daily exercise and low body fat will be a good place for them to start, because from a medical and insurance perspective they could be very expensive to maintain. jjf

    “Bernanke’s & The G20's Secret Debt Solution”

    Leaving Gold aside (where is belongs) the guts of this threat is that G20 mental midgets hope to inflate their way out of the current mountain of debt at the expense of their currencies. So what is new. In a prolonged moment of weakness, all Politicians stubble upon this concept eventually...

    Volume analysis is to be discarded as it is "too much information"

    Interesting posts from "Traders" But why do you allow yourself to be sucked into someone else's game.I thought that was a no no for a Trader. Why the emotional outbursts. I thought emotion should left on the sideline for a Trader. Why the assumptions. I thought "assumption" was the down...

    What are Clinton/Obama up to

    Some thoughts for you. The fact that the NKs agreed to release the two girls before Clinton left the US is a given. The whole thing was orchestrated by O and then handed to Bill, partially because of the size of the media frenzy that Gibbs could whip up and in a lesser way it was to make...
