Thanks for sharing, F9 (Ian, isn't it? I forget, it's been too long). You could settle here, plenty of empty land in Okrahoma. Great wide swathes of Appalachia are sparsely inhabited, perhaps due to population decline from inbreeding. A 100K out from town? You'll have to helicopter the champagne...

It just now occurred to me as I was washing dishes, that after an exhaustive day playing Sensitive Guy badly, that just maybe TRADING IS GENDER-SPECIFIC! Tara, darling! Get in here in help me! I know you don't have morning sickness yet! And surely there are other REAL girl traders here! But...

Thanks for being such a good sport Lucky. I'll be gone for a while, too. Being semi-retire-ded (have to say that with a Southern accent to get my drift) has its advantages. For example, I get to pretend to be a successful trader on a nationally-renowned medium and to give trading advice to the...

I got a PM from Lucky a while back. Maybe she will return. Wouldn't blame her if she didn't.

We are all just a little off. I once accused 666 of being a girl, but he didn't even reply, wouldn't talk to me for months. Some people think Tara is a guy, say it ain't so! JJ write poesy...nah! ...couldn't be!...could it? Every so often Cassandra takes over and humiliates me by talking street...

Hide in plain sight, yes. But seriously, you clowns, as best I can tell Lucky is a middle class mother and housewife who comes to ET expecting to find what it represents itself to be: a serious community generously sharing knowledge and experience (the opposite of the mean-spirited Doaks noob...

Keep it OT, please! This is ET! No place better on the web to get good trading advice! (Damn but JJ is good! The Homer of daytrading!) Sorry, Lucky, we'll go back to PMing. Bunch of clowns here! All that wisdom missed will be their loss.

JJ, that was Doaks, not me, ranting about noobs. And you'd better delete that scurrilous post doubting her gender. I have already confessed to being a lesbian and it would be awful embarrasing to have to retract that admission.

Sad to say, F9, my standards are low re B-Team membership. But he writes mean poetry to match 666's and mine. Don't know if you stooped to reading our stuff when we were beating our favorite dead horse, but it was almost as good as Ogden Nash at his worst.

There you have it, Lucky! I doubt it gets any better than that. Swing trade momo stocks, trade index futures for day-in-day-out bread-and-butter, don't invest, and don't bet the farm. Just like I said do. Told you you'd get widely varying opinions.

Thanks, F9. Good advice! Of course I know exactly what you mean (don't I?), but please give her a hint what you mean by "the weekly base chart."

Thanks, JJ! I was wondering when the B-Team would ride to the rescue! If you don't offer some good advice I am going to be reduced to referring her you-know-where for investing and trading methods. This is no-shit serious here. How would you like to be a phony like me and have someone PM you...

And Lucky, while you are thinking about your obvious trading time frame issues, please consider what kind of income stream you need to achieve and what account size you are willing to risk. Also, since you have family commitments, how much time during the day you can commit to it. I know you and...

F9, it has not escaped my attention that you are not being much help here. Kindly give the nice lady some intelligent answers to her questions. You can't possibly do any worse than I did.

You laugh. You might consider the impact on your trading if every family in America follows my lead and trades one ES every day, say 100M contracts. We'll be getting our brokerage account deposit money from the Treasury in the next round of bailouts.

Maybe. The median age here is pushing 40. And people would have to be motivated to get up off their generally fat asses to do something. Maybe after they've starved for a while and gotten lean and mean. But with this thread I have started my national campaign to make every person in the U. S. Oy...

I think you mean Half Foods. Where I am Central Market and Market Street are killing them.

Anna, forgot to talk investing vice trading. The idea is to trade with a tiny fraction of your account, but make as much money annually speculating as the investment accounts make investing. Years ago I spent some money well learning this from the late great Eddie Toppel. You got a cool million...

Uh, F9, somebody already wrote that book. It's called "Gone with the Wind!" But I'll keep the New Feudalism in mind as my Plan B. You are too funny, bro! The Thought Police will be blowing down your door before I finish typing this.

When you get as old as I am both your feet and your ass get wide. "Aural sex" is a decades-old Southern joke I can't repeat here. I'll PM you. Investing, especially inside a tax-protected IRA or 401K, has many benefits I think. IMO we are currently at astonishingly low valuations and...
