In my case, I don't know if I will ever change my methodology, but at the same time it's good to have an open mind for other opportunities. I'm still curious about neutral trading and I would think others would be too. I don't know where they are? Busy with option expiration maybe? You've given...

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THE LAST TWO, ESPECIALLY THINK OUT OF THE BOX!! The 2nd one about secrets in the same family is interesting...never thought about it like that...do you know of any specific examples? If not, that's o.k.

Has anyone researched on HOW the media became primarily liberal? I mean, how does a whole industry become primarily anything? Is it possible the media became liberal in college while under "liberal instruction" in the journalism/communications departments? Are most of the instructors former...

THANK YOU MACD!! I must get some rest as well...I've decided to not trade tonight.:)

If it works...keep doing it! FWIW, in my +20 years as a trader, I can recall numerous occasions where I had success for many months, only to succumb to the markets ever changing conditions and dynamics...had to learn to adapt. I'm not telling you this to discourage you at all...just be aware it...

Bar patterns and price action are huge for me. I do look at volume and its relation to these "bar sets" on some setups. Couldn't live without "bar sets" and what price does around them! Really, I don't have much on my chart at all... a favorite indicator that I developed is below the chart...

You shouldn't use such absolutes in your statement. There are exceptions. I've been trading +20 years and I consider myself to be a scientist of the financial markets. I think Handel 123 would apply as well. I do agree, if a trader is obsessed and doesn't have a clue to what their doing, it can...

Yes, some of my words don't make sense. I often trade after hours/overnight and get behind on sleep. Sorry to any academics on ET. At least the prior sentences made sense...right? They could've been written like this: Jes, som off mi werds dont make cense. I offtin trede afner ours/ubernight and...

Calm down little buddy. Personally, I could care less about any "level" when I enter a position. I do care about a level when I'm trying for a larger gain...why take the 50/50 chance at a "congestion area" when I have a good profit already? Take the profit and don't be greedy! I know the end of...

MACD...always trading hedged doesn't sound particularly easy either, unless someone shows you how...like you did with your friends. Are you going to show any newbies a good place to start with so called hedge trading? BTW, are you talking about option or futures spreads? Anyways, does your...

I have to obsessed about something that I consider a big payoff. Something I don't mention, is the time I spend on INVENTION IDEAS...which I won't speak of on this site. I remember obsessing over statistics of baseball and football players when I was a kid, studying and memorizing all the...

Just to be a devil's advocate. I guess I'm considered a "little guy" too, but to hell with the little guy. I don't want anyone taking care of me! I've been competitive my whole life and I earn what I deserve. If I have to overcome the "man" to get what I want...then so be it! I just have to be...

Totally agree that balance is important. My kids keep me in balance, along with exercise and beer socials. Have to admit that ideas hit me all the time when doing these activities. Yes, I'm obsessed!:D

My mind never really shuts off when it comes to trading. It's not any extra effort on my part, it just happens on its own. Ideas can come to me while watching t.v., showering, laying in bed, or having boring conversations...sometimes during sex (just kidding:D). Other than that, I spend a lot of...

Sorry...I have to admit that I have some setups with negative R:R. They have been too good to me to throw away. They do trade infrequently at times. I won't argue with other traders about this..it's just something that I've found throughout the years!:cool:

I would only add...Dude, are you still trying to trade price levels too?:D I found them unnecessary a long time ago...only for entries.

Are you including all ages and both genders in these stats? Take the total population of the U.S. and then consider the percentages by age group. Anyways, Trump's fathers age (93) is very important in projecting Trump's life expectancy...probably more so than choles. and bl. pressure (since he...

You said a 70 year old like Trump would die at 70. Then you gave him extra 3 years...equal 73. I will probably die of a heart attack in my 80's or 90's...my father is 89 yrs. What are you going to die of?

The only thing I could find is census info. from 2010. Population of men 70-74 yrs. approx. 4 million in America. Are you saying the future for over 2 million men is immediate (lets say 4 yrs.) cardiac arrest?

How unlikely...though? Are you including people on effective medication in your probability? Anyways, 70+2 terms equals less than 80...were good!:D
