Unless you get stop-lossed, maimed or killed, that is. Pat Tillman enlisted right after 9-11 with the declared purpose of coming back with Bin-Laden's head in a bag. You enlisted after getting married and having kids saying that you weren't living the big life. I sure hope your wife...

Flipper's back! :D (Nice trading, Schizo :))

I missed that action - was having a very expensive chicken sandwich :D - but was looking before to short at 73.60-80. However, I got blindsided by the euro (btw, nice long, NoDoji). 72.80-73.00 was a reasonable profit-taking zone, the subsequent break was way too clean (with euro up and ES...

Did you really see a long there or were you upset at having missed the break? I was :mad: and almost went long at the same place you did :eek:

Well, look at oil... that was a expensive chicken sandwich :D

Shorted on the ISM at 72.96 out at 72.99 (saw euro going up and bailed) Edit: #~€@! Should have flipped - where's Schizo when you need him? :D

This is a good movie/documentary on the economics of marijuana in North America: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1039647/ You're not counting expenses and the police figure is most probably way inflated (they could be giving the retail value of the production of the plants over a year): no...

There are not Zimbabwe dollars anymore: In an effort to combat inflation and foster economic growth the Zimbabwean Dollar was suspended indefinitely on 12 April 2009.[108] Zimbabwe now allows trade in the United States Dollar and various other currencies such as the South African Rand, Euro...

In the pits, if the trader holds both slips (and opened your sister's trade and remembers it), yes, which is why before Globex large off-site traders (Tudor Jones, Richard Dennis, etc.) used several brokers/pit traders to mask what they were doing. In electronic markets, I don't see how (but I'm...

What I do is place a couple of trades in sim mode *before* the market opens to warm up, get a feel for the volatility (yeah, I know it changes, but still). Works for me.

What does the crystal ball say? Pullback and recharge or change in trend and flip short? Thank you, kind sir :D [Edit] Aaaah, the beauty of telepathy... :D

+74 out (74.)71 -3 ticks (lottery ticket, don't like attacking)

Long 72.63 be one tick from being stopped out traget 73.40-ish [edit: target - ducking fislexia!) Will add twice (if I'm not stopped out before :D) Playing it tight, though since I'm forcing my entry a bit after missing oh-so-many-nice entries all day long Stopped out at .72...

You missed ***a*** chance. Still over 1 1/2 hours to go. And the week does not end till the fat lady sings (aka Friday night). Next one.

Nasdaq broke [edit: overnight's] LOD - still slightly above it

London close approaching. IMHO either oil + stocks go up or euro is going to have some nice retracement. No Doji, are you still long euro?

Forget the dollar till later in the session. Euro: central banks buying + successful Spanish auction + only 115 of >400 EUR billion in ECB refinancing (GBP moving in sympathy) Yen: best Tankan report in over two years, yen going up like crazy CAD is flat and AUD falling, but EUR + GBP +...

I'll take poop in my pants and five-figure-profits in my account any day :D But yeah, [edit...] the timing of [... edit] that exit reminded me of the CL thread earlier

1984 Amstrad CPC 472 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amstrad_CPC Had to love the extra 8 kb of "memory": Its only difference to the CPC464 was the inclusion of an add-on board containing 8 kB of memory. The additional memory was not available to the CPU, its sole purpose was to increase...

I thought so too, but euro is holding up so far - or not :D Plus WTF is oil doing? Edit: http://www.marketwatch.com/story/moodys-may-downgrade-spain-sovereign-aaa-rating-2010-06-30
