    Probably not the answer you are looking for, but for my style there is lots of discretion when to get in and even more when getting out. There is no analytics involved with my style. It is more an art than any tripping thresholds signaling green lights and red ones. I have followed only some...

    A demographic whirlpool, too ?

    WAKE UP CALL ! Brief videos below and my narrative here is derived from them. If there is a theme to the below-described, when economies are barely growing at 1 - 2 %, expect fertility rate to be below replacement rate. The decline of nations becomes particularly noticeable when once they...

    Back after several years...

    and don't mind getting roughed up, too ! Some years ago I had some years there and warned about that, and advised best not to go to the bars where all the pickup trucks were. So I said, ok, just direct me to where I can find some girls. I was told.......where the pickup trucks are.

    My first pair posted in 1 1/2 months. Only for the aggressive, though. HOT / HST Earnings coming out on both soon. Recent long term parallel feature makes it dicey for swing traders to stay in for very long. This adds extra risk to future added layers. 4 charts of varying time...

    Possible posting here tomorrow morning, Tuesday, new charts. No earlier than 3 hours after market opens. Not time critical. These pair trades are swing. Nice entry now, but may be more opportunities later for the same pairs.

    A demographic whirlpool, too ?

    The national income accounts suggest that about 70% of U.S. output is attributable to the labor of human beings. Yet there has been a decline in the proportion of working-age Americans who are employed. In recent decades there was a steady rise in the employment-to-population ratio: For every...

    A demographic whirlpool, too ?

    This brief is from Don Creech email I received Dec 3, 2012 (I referenced him near the beginning of this thread.) I copied and pasted the following. The words: ... "The U.S. birth rate"... is a hyperlink in the Creech email that takes you to a Bloomberg article which is at the bottom of this...

    A demographic whirlpool, too ?

    Thanks Piezoe. I am still plowing through your two posts and Wikipedia. The latter corroborates, possibly, a point in your first post about disinformation / misinformation as follows: I have only skimmed Wikipedia, but one thing that caught my eye was the following: "In 2011 and 2012...

    A demographic whirlpool, too ?

    Thanks Piezoe for the post. I have lots of follow-up questions and statements to come. I listened on the radio this Saturday morning to two local (Puget Sound area) financial adviser gentlemen who seldom talk THEIR financial business on the radio. Rather, they do an hour with very little...

    Ok CD, I gave you details on our PM exchange on how to find him, the nephew. As promised, since I had Joe take down my post about him on this thread and my meeting and photo of him at U of H (hawaii institute of geophysics), here is a replacement one so you will recognize him when you meet in...

    Trading vs Investing

    You just defined cause and reason for my (our group) modus operandi. "Enjoying consistent gains with relative safety and agnostic to market direction counts as "betterment" to me rather than investing with worry." http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=3715371#post3715371

    Trading vs Investing

    Better ? Does quality of life rate for inclusion in this question ? I could make this a longer statement with respect to what a few others I have (to varying extents) made converts of to swing style of pair trading, but I'll just say in general their attitudes appear to be consistent with...
