    Who in their right mind would vote for McCain?

    Am I the only one wishing for a sudden illness......... and let's say Paul getting the nomination :-) How do you guys suggest I tell my kids that the few generations before them drove this great country to bankruptcy? Why do we keep voting for people that can't balance a checkbook and...

    IB high/low broken on index futures

    ER2 & NQ screwed up......my volume charts are not working with IB data. A burst of volume data is sent every 10 seconds thus my volume charts will not function. Time charts are fine. How does one find out if they are working on this issue?

    Social Security: How can it ever get exhausted??

    Yep...the guys at the end of the scheme always get screwed. People never like to face reality. The first beneficiary paid in $25.00 yet received $23,000.00 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ida_May_Fuller :eek:

    Can I continue trading for living?

    Sorry to hear about your misfortunes. I'll be the first to say it will be extremely tough to trade (successfully) while you have this sense of urgency going on. Best of luck. If you have your health and loved ones around you, things are never as bad as they seem.

    Trading e-minis with $1k starting capital

    $25K.........You're kidding right? For daytrading ES? If you traded HUGE swings, 10K mighty be in order. $2500 bucks is plenty to daytrade one contract. If I was starting with $1000, I would trade the NQ up to the $2500 mark. After that, you may want to stick with the NQ or try some other...

    Protesters enter Bear Stearns headquarters

    The smart ones in the room are all gathering by the exits just waiting for someone to holler..... FIRE!!! Dont be caught in the stampede by standing in the middle of the room. Naturally, being a trader puts us nice and close to the exit. :D

    2% per day!

    I trade the ER2. 1 contract most times. Will add extra contract within a few ticks of the overall stop. Had two days this year with $+1500. One day I lost $700 :mad: Never try to have a goal (percentage or dollar amount). Just take what the market gives. Goals always phucked with my head...

    2% per day!

    With the ER2, you can have a 5K account and double it in a few weeks scalping 1 contract. Pretty tough with a 500K account.

    Multi Monitor Video Card

    I'm running a Matrox G450 dual PCI on a Dell 4600. I use the motherboard video out as well and that allows for 3 monitors total. Downloaded software from Matrox site for the card and works perfect. I bought another G450 PCI on Ebay ($21 - two months ago) for a spare or I could add 2 more...

    Ron Paul Rejects Evolution

    Good for Dr. Paul...He asked congress to all follow his lead and put up $100 to buy this $30,000 medal. Funny...no one would spend their own money. It's unconstitutional to spend tax money on something like that and everybody knows it. Washington just wipes their arse with that old trivial...

    Ron Paul AMAZING!

    Errors in the Hershey Futures Method

    I'm still trying to figure out the old "APA - If1 - If2" method described above from 2003. I've been a miserable failure. I've ran after the Hershey carrot for years but never caught it :(
