Then how could they grow their weed for gawds sakes, if all the rooftop space is used up? 1,000 watt halides and high-pressure sodium setups in the basement... vented and cooled to avoid detection, no happenstance fly-overs busting the blatant rooftop garden :eek:

Fine to trade one - two contracts, max. Very illiquid, commonly slips a tick or more on the exit. Smoothest emini mover, reminds me of what the ER used to be in 2004 before the chicken-pick scalpers and program slammers turned it into what we have today. MD is fit for one-lot or two-lot...

I did some research years ago on ALL vehicles for trading.... stocks, mutual funds, futures, options. The number of traders who could document 40% average for 10 years [reliably audited], you could count on your fingers. Anyone who is talking 10% per month or 200% per year is either a...

I took a trial of Linda's room. I never went back, her calls were at best 50% correct. Using a +2 / -1 dollar ratio for trades, 50% correct will make anyone rich over the course of time. For the legion of emini traders who think they can play the 1/1 ratio and win 70% or greater trades...

Windpower has far more liabilities than assets. Towers can be up to 400 feet in height... never mind an 80ft pipsqueak. Solar power is a much better choice... panels on every roof west of the Mississipi would be a good start :>)

<i>"Smaller chance for this to happen when a trader use a mechanical system, whether it is automated or manually executed."</i> <b>Karl</b> will make all of his money back and then some with one simple, mental adjustment... and he already knows what it is. Rather than "having to have"...

Brownsfan is 100% correct about pay-performance trade rooms. A couple of years ago, I explored that route and also inquired about percent-profit based auto-trade service, too. Here's the deal: anything offered on a profit-incentive basis falls under SEC/CFTC rules. The provider of service(s)...

For short-term traders, especially intraday traders, CNBC is a total waste of time. It offers nothing positive but does exert plenty of negative thoughts and suggestions. I only turn CNBC on ahead of known news events, to see what the announcement is. Other than that, DirecTV or cable has...

<b>Porgie</b>, I have made new friends with some serious, professional traders in this forum. We PM back & forth on a semi-frequent basis. All are full-time traders, none care to post in this forum due to childish, immature flaming that persists. The only reason they contacted me in the first...

<b>Volente</b>, looking forward to trading along side you in the WorldCup contest next year. Best wishes in that endeavor! BTW... can you really walk away from <i>all this right here</i> and still be o.k.? (laugh) Take great care, and come back any time. Who really cares, anyway? Sometimes...

<i>"Pretty dang trendy if ya ask me, big range expansion.." </i> I shorted S1 early for -1pt ER, next/last trade of the day was long 755.70 after Beige Book drivel. That trade stalled & stalled, I trail stopped out for +1pt and broke even for the day... just before that trade went more...

<b>Porgie</b>, if you're looking for help here like your post above suggests, I'm perfectly willing to work with you. By your own admission, you don't trade real money. Why is that? What holds you back from smelting your own proverbial pot of gold? There are only two motivations for humans...

<b>BearBelly</b>, anyone in here can read thru my posts archived. I think they'll see many attempts at helping other traders thru a myriad of topics whenever I can. I think my posts are generally positive, respectful and uplifting. I fully explained earlier why the trade was posted. Am I to...

I don't trade IB... never have, never will. I'll post snapshots whenever I feel it necessary. That will be coming soon on a regular basis, rest assured. :cool:

<b>BearBelly</b>, I posted what I did because the topic of this thread and many others recently laments price action going higher, when is it going to end, the markets are irrational, etc do the nth degree. My stance remains the same as always: ditch any bias, trade what you see, trust the...

ER short into known market-moving event: #1: Gapped down and filled its gap... with noticeable selling pressure on that candle/bar #2: Failed at previous session highs, exact same behavior in ES as well. #3: Closed back below daily pivot in ER and ES. Then lifted into previous support...

<b>der</b>, you jabbed me needlessly in another thread a couple of weeks ago when I offered some helpful advice to the OP. So, I took a few minutes and browsed back thru your history of posts in here. You've been active since 11/05, correct? In that time, all I see of your input is a bunch of...

<b>der</b>, there wasn't meant to be

ER short 750.00 = trailed out at 744.00 and done for the day. Spank you very much for the ride, FOMC Minutes :>) To think a history book like this can move the markets better than FOMC event itself did. As if anything released in that drivel was news worthy of knee-jerking the indexes...

short ER 750.00 = trailed stop 748.00 (low 746.00) and holding for +5pts or better from here. If they ramp and take out resistance near daily pivot, will flip long for upside ride into close.
