    CALPERS Files Lawsuit vs NYSE

    I never said NYSE is best in its current form. But almost everyone here is completely overexxaggerating the evils of NYSE & Gang. Their biggest manipulation practices only affect the average US masses and in all realism, the masses get screwed regardless in what they do. And NYSE does give...

    CALPERS Files Lawsuit vs NYSE

    Naz is the alternative and it is not very respectable. NYSE has their shady practices but there are many safety nets and advantages that they offer to everyone (except the masses of course). You fail to recognize that the proposed system which is Naz is actually a failure considering their...

    CALPERS Files Lawsuit vs NYSE

    Fair and optimal comparing to what? You consider Naz a fair market? Because that is exactly the contrary to NYSE. I mean really, please give some examples in life that are fair or optimal and then compare it to NYSE. Look at corporate governance, government bueracracy, music &...

    CALPERS Files Lawsuit vs NYSE

    Dude you really do not get it. You claim to trade NYSE, but you obviously completely fail to recognize that being able to read the specialist trading style is a huge advantage. Screw Nasdaq and screw ECNs where there is much less predictability. Yes you do get more volatility but the risk is...

    CALPERS Files Lawsuit vs NYSE

    Actually I mostly trade the low volume NYSE stocks. They have been my best performers. Most of you guys truly have little clue.

    CALPERS Files Lawsuit vs NYSE

    To do what? This is such old news and it seems every time the market gets tough, everyone jumps on the specialists. All these allegations and wrongdoings are so damn old and have been exposed for decades. Everyone knows that the NYSE and the Specialist firms are part of an elite club to...

    CALPERS Files Lawsuit vs NYSE

    I hope this is just some BS to incite investors into jumping back in the market. These pension funds and mutual funds are a scam of their own. Let the specialists pay a nice hefty fine and leave em alone.

    The URGE to Make More $$$

    Exactly, Most people can't do that which is just another reason most traders will fail. An even better strategy is to raise your risk tolerance once you meet your goal. Cut size and require earlier entries, thats what I do.

    Fighting the Tape

    Ahhh so you're one of those traders that constantly upticks against a falling price. You keep trying to bounce a short that WILL NOT bounce since there are no covers. You guys are nothing but noise to the stock's general direction. I know that once I stopped trading against the tape, I...

    Exporting jobs

    Good for consumers? LOL what? Those Indian tech support staff can barely speak English. Not only that, they have to read off the screen and will not ever alter their lines since they will get fired. Now whether they are knowledgable or not is a different question since they are not allowed...

    Saddam's capture will move the market, but I'm shorting

    These can easily make tomorrow a down day. It's nice to see the market open up 100+ just to watch it slowly sell off all day.

    Dow will go down

    Guys do not even start. It's another BS call that WILL be somewhat right since it is so vague, Don't feed him.

    Plunge Protection Team or not?

    Greenspan and Company have definitely been propping up the market. I dunno about direct purchases but I'm sure they have other tools besides printing cheap money. Bush definitely needs to get to reelected if they plan to take riches out of Iraq. So they will do whatever they can to keep the...

    Small Accounts 5-10 thousand

    You make it sound so simple that anyone can do it. The strategy makes sense but a max 2% loss with a Naz stock? Even with a huge sell offer, the stock can easily rip up anyway. I'm not saying you are full of it or anything, but the way you described you strategy sounds too easy and too...

    Do you add to losing positions if a new setup occurs?

    Yes, Usually it's a chance to get more shares at a good price. But it also makes your mental stop a lot tighter because of higher risk. I never use real stops. I think overall it has worked out well for me. Sometimes the price just dips to shake out and I stay and even try to pick up...
