    POLL: ET Over the last 6 months - better or worse?

    I voted a little worse over last 6 months, but would say alot worse over the last 12-18 months...I think that alot of apathy has set in, both for the market and Elite Trader in general, since late last year. Also, alot of the common debates about politics, war, economics, etc have dissipated in...

    My favorite NFL team is...

    I agree that the NFL and NBA are starting to head in the same direction. Although the NBA is even worse, with the number of teenagers opting out of college ball and going straight to the pros. I see better fundamental basketball when I watch good high school players run a disciplined offense...

    I don't get it

    I believe that is one of the most important, yet most overlooked, considerations of this entire effort. As you suggest, this administration has no choice but to continue to fund this process, but it is very clear that the true lack of planning has turned this into a very real disaster. And I...

    How high can the S&P go?

    If you guys want to see how much this market has changed, just look at this options expiration week from Oct, 2002...We had an overnight gap of 23 pts on Thurs, 10/17/02...Had an opening range of 22 pts on Fri, 10/18/02...Lo and behold, now we have 3-4 pt opening ranges and a VIX reading under...

    50 pts in the ES

    Nothing to do with good or bad day...I have been on this site for a few years and without fail its the same old story...If you really think DBPhoenix is doing this to benefit others, I would say that is rather naive...In fact, with the exception of a few people, I think everyone knows that he...

    50 pts in the ES

    Its too bad we cant create an EliteTrader exchange where we can place our bets on how long it takes for the likes of DBPhoenix or NihabaAshi to inject their typical rhetoric... Random guy starts his journal...makes a few winning trades...then the slow bleed begins...DBPhoenix asks "Do you...

    Cubs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    It's been a very long time since I pitched, but in general you know when your losing it if your breaking balls are hanging, your getting pitches up in the zone, your timing of the release of the pitch is off and your falling off to your side...In fact, even watching baseball on tv, if you have...

    Favorite songs of all time!

    Staying with what appears to be the theme...70's and 80's easy listening, these would be my picks from that genre... Watching the Wheel-John Lennon Sexual Healing-Marvin Gaye Just the Two of Us-Grover Washington, Jr and Bill Withers You're So Vain-Carly Simon Do It Again-Steely Dan...

    Cubs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    LOL...well, I give the Marlins fans credit...For the most part they filled that 65,000 capacity stadium...Look at the Braves, they could barely control 50% of Turner Field....

    Cubs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    One of my big gripes about the postseason coverage is that they should at least include one of the regular play by play guys from the regular season. Throw in Steve Stone along with Al Leiter and Steve Lyons...Get 3 bonafide baseball guys in there...Al Leiter has a strong future in the...

    Credit Spreads

    One thing that has been overlooked, or at least not emphasized enough, is the simple fact that over the past 2-3 years the OEX contract, in particular, has become less and less liquid. This strategy now has a much higher cost of entry/exit than it did in years past. Also, there is no guarantee...

    The next big thing

    Michael Milken has been out of jail for quite some time. In fact, both he and his brother made it to the Forbes 400 this year. Michael Milken's net worth reported at $875million; his brother Lowell has a net worth reported at $625million...

    Any video card recs for 3-monitors?

    yeah, after a few weeks of using the Parhelia in triple head stretched mode last year, I decided to just dedicate to dual head mode with a very high resolution and am much happier with this layout. Granted, I could have just used the G450, but I also like the option of putting it back into...

    Cubs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I agree. The Braves do have insane offensive stats and a loaded line up, but that pitching staff is so vulnerable. Ortiz led the majors in wins, but his ERA was over 4.00 for much of the year and he led NL Pitchers in walks, which I believe automatically should disqualify him from serious Cy...

    Cubs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    The Offense has been the Cubs problem for the entire season, so last night was nothing new. However, this team made some truly "un-Cub-like" adjustments during the year to really solidify this team. Before they acquired Lofton, Ramirez, Simon, they had many more holes in the offense. Now, as...

    Other Markets to Trade -Evening Hours

    The DJ Eurostoxx opens at 2AM CT and trades pretty lockstep with ES in the overnight session. In fact, the Eurostoxx often leads the ES in the overnight session. If/when the markets get volatile overnight sessions, there will be plenty of opportunity there.

    California becoming a part of mexico?

    I have always felt the immigration issue is a major double standard. Publicly, the bureaucrats denounce it when they have nothing to gain from the Latino community, and/or support it when the majority of their constituents are Hispanic. But the bottomline is that one of the main reasons why...

    The Next Trend In USA Alcohol

    It's funny you mention this. After reading that thread about everyone's favorite vodka, I was going to mention the same thing. Since when did hard alcohol suddenly become so vogue. It wasnt that long ago that if a guy ordered vodka, he was considered a low life degenerate, hard core...
