"Regular adult life" So a professional trader, in a major city , needing to be and have all that you should have , should be and should do isnt stressful? That stuff accumulates. Envision renting a studio(tiny houses are chic) within walking/biking distance , with a partner, pet , with a book...

I like FAZ, (short financials) long right here but admitedly "it should have moved the last couple days". Thinking it will revert back into the thick of the recent range. Yup its a lousy tripple bear etf and I will run like hell if those recent lows dont hold. Ironically, its possible the fed...

I was wondering what creatinine kinase(Ck) levels would be post this type of workout. Google "Rhambdomyolsis". Some extreme athletes require hospitalization after a single event. Severe muscle damage spikes toxic CK to be flushed by the kidneys. Greater than usual thirst following extreme events...

I read that rate differentials have an effect on the financials. Take a look at the 2yr under 10yr. US treasury curve. 2 year holding pretty steady waiting on fed bias/change but 10 year yield down bigly. Spread less than 1% (100 bp. ). very recently. What the fed says in June may have an...

Are you using a popular TA indicator(s) searching and optimizing program? I think so. The reports look somewhat familiar. I would think you use a schmorgesborg(sorry) of indicators to fit those equity curves. Yup, sure of it now... A novice can buy(rent) that software for a monthly fee, run it...

Yeah, but if the they did not intervene in the markets then interest rates would probably be below zero.

Dont be misled with "what works books" vintage 2007 and believe it does. That is going down a less than useful path. I will give my opinion on two threads here. One is obscure, the other not. ACD and "neither tech nor macro" . Might be better to read what REAL traders say than to get mucked...

Curious. if you are familiar with Excel and you don't require (you may) the rich,maths features of an OOP such as python, then why not stay with Excel VBA. Is the issue more of fundamental programming skills as in opening files, reading to array, performimg maths, and output results OR the...

AMZN. I remember very well when this started trding along with Yahoo, AOL and a handful of notable losers , Excite, Infoseek, etc. Amazon was a bookseller competing with Barnes and Noble and upstart Borders Group. It is astounding what AMZN has become. Could Bezos have even envisioned...

Is "Ghost of Marketsurfer" available?

I wonder if GC would typically reach a support level if treasuries and yen rallied with USD falling along with a dovish fed statement and increased inflation expectations. It's possible large money , desiring large liquidity at a previous support level, to load up without effecting price too...

ZNM17 current price is 125-075 so this is 15 ticks above 125-000. This equates to 15/64 (64 ticks/point) = .23 So 125.23 in decimal format. .23*1000 = $230 profit on the notional 100k if you entered at 125.00. So, yes you are correct , roughly . Your decimal quote moves in units of .01 where ZT...

One food One pill One exercize for today. Buy a lot of fat free "vanilla" yogurt and a bag of walnuts and flaxseed. Use a serving for breakfast and for your evening snack replacing the junk you are eating now.(flavor with van extract and unsweetened dark cocoa powder if you want) Get a...

Going into week I am looking to get long gold or gold miners , TIPs, and short USD/JPY. All correlated and looking to reverse and swing the other way. Fridays US notes and bonds look to reverse after a decent swing as well. Gonna give this more than a day to gel and join. I think the major...

Any change on gold with new price info? Price action around the U.S. CPI and retail sales is supportive of USD continuing down and gold, bond prices , yen and emerging markets up. 80% chance of June FED rate hike still. I'm looking at doing something Monday around this.

151-105 which is between 151-10 and 151-11 is equivilant to 151.33 Where .33 x 32 is about 10.5 or 105 is a third of the way to $1000 or $333 32 ticks at $31.25/per is $1000 ( some move in half and quarter ticks confusing the quotes). So yup , you are right and yeah $2000 a point for ZT but...

Ali was the greatest. One great feat was beating the total bad ass, Sonny Liston, when Ali was a 22 year old kid. They say that Ali convinced Liston that he ( Ali) was nuts, crazy and not afraid.

I read somewhere that a push-up is generally about 55% of body weight . Any truth to this?

http://www.mining.com/iron-ore-price-free-fall/ I took a look at Vale n Rio . Quite a run up but seems quite bearish now. China equity indices pulling back as well. quick bounce/ trade you lookin for?

I see, Thank you.
