AMT: Thanks. A clarification: I did not ask what OBV is (I know the definition). What I wanted to know is that you explain (with an example if needed) the difference between cumulative delta and OBV as you see it in your mind! So I am interested in how you perceive the difference (if any) in...

AMT: 1. Could you please explain what is delta (no need to explain cumulative delta as it should be just a sum of deltas during a time interval)? 2. How is delta different then OBV (on balance volume)? 3. What is the effect of time interval size (bar size) on the conclusions from the...

If you cannot state that the previous administration did such bad work, then you are clealry an idiot, more likely from state that votes W. no matter what.

The same remark applies to you! :p PS: "In all honestly" should be "In all honesty". Did you get infected by W. and his problems with words?

I was not singling out any particular person, and I think you are a knowledgeable person. I was just remembering all the bullishness back then, and the explanation given. To me it was common sense: yields below 2% would not stay long particularly in a situation of credit problems. Bonds...

You are an imbecile. It is people like you who voted an idiot twice, and insulted Al Gore for pointing out during the debates that the guy is an idiot, and could not take it he had to sigh. You voted the guy because you felt he is a regular guy like yourself: an idiot. The result: we know what...

Against the EUR the dollar will NOT go down. The dollar will more likely go up, and break the 1.25 line before the end of this year. The move may even start this week. How many of you have gone long the bonds in the 115 area? R U under? Many were explaining why bonds will go to 195. It was...

I was thinking in the context of futures, where a short is essentially a new contract opened. For stocks, I see what you are saying.

Thanks for your post. Could you please explain your methodology? For instance when you write 'short" inventory, I am not sure I understand what you mean. For any short inventory, there is a long inventory established at the same price and date/time. If you can explain it more, it would be...

You are clearly bright!

Being outnumbered by 10:1 is a compliment in trading. Did you not know?:p

Y've got a part of the point. One of the other parts is that the money played is not his own. Now why does he not borrow money and trade it if he is that good? He should easily pay the interest cost right?

Bullshit. It is fools like you who propagate such things that make him rich by advertising imaginary trading performance for free, which brings more money for him to run, and collect more fees. PS: take the word "colleagues", and put it in caps. As for England, HALF the people involved in...

There is no proof that Soros made any money trading himself. He however owned a fund that made him money. Do not forget that he had workers: those workers were traders. The fund does not need to make money for the owner to make money. All it needs is to be in business. Even crooks made...

You did not get the man's main point!

Someone understands the root of being in the club! Bravo sit! I am almost sure that you make money in the market, because you understand the fundamentals of things. The multiple is the difference between the wealth of Jones owing a corner coffee shop and the guy who started starbucks.The latter...

Buffet is an investor, not a trader. In addition Buffet did NOT make his fortune from investing but rather from selling stock of his company. The actual money Buffet made from investing can be computed by taking his company's earnings, multiply it by the fraction of his ownership, and divide...

Let me state it in a different way: if a trader does not intend on starting a hedge fund, based on current information, s/he will never make it in Forbes list and never make a billion from trading? Did anyone prove the latter statement wrong?

You want that I cut your horns or your back leggs? Post under your other ET screen names, and take classes in Probability 101. By now you should know I know who you are---I also knew who you are when you PMed me as a nice guy and signed Rob (which was appropriate for what you were trying to get).

Sorry Tide, but I disagree. Let us take Soros. Your main sentence should rather be: All/most started as traders, and amassed wealth as fund managers. The current answer to my question is still: none.
