Buy1Sell2...how about you?

ENTP...you probably have a good sense of humor then...as does my wifey.:)

Lately...teaching a 9th grader how to box and coaching girls softball.

The only thing not "propped" up is commodities...in my opinion.

Never say never.:D

Good point, but his "ignorance" might be a little different in this case. He's always believed no one can time the market...so why try. He's astonished at what I do. I totally agree with your statement though. I'm sure there's a lot of 401kers that have no clue lol.

I only follow price action. If it follows some trend, reversal, breakout, or S/R...it wasn't intentional.

I only trade natural gas (NG) and gold (GC). The nat gas contracts are cheap and you could try MGC for cheap gold contracts. I love the volatility and emotion of these instuments...good luck!

My dad bought a shit load of mutual fund shares in the early 80's and he's still holding them. Unbelievable patience and discipline...he is a wealthy man. I don't know how he's held through four or five bear market crashes, but his strategy has worked very well. Is this the strategy that some of...

I don't use it for day trades or swing trades. I use it for investing purposes though...when and where to accumulate mining shares. I don't really invest that much in the metals...mostly junior miners right now.

I don't know why I can't get most current chart, but this is a chart of managed futures (hedge funds) long and short through 7-24-18. The hedge funds have been a dumb money indicator for the last several years now.

The mean reversion trades are very profitable...probably my favorite...they tend to be profitable immediately. So many "trends" are a psyche job to suck traders in before the reversal, in my opinion. To me, trends definitely aren't "obvious", but there's more than one way to beat this game.:)

I day trade GC everyday. I've never looked at what the trend is supposed to be. It's all what price action does. Many trades are mean reversion.

Yes, zero sum. Total of large specs plus small specs should be inverse of commercials. I'm always talking about the large specs positioning because that's what I believe is key. They're usually net long, but their short positioning swings from extremes...just like right now. It makes sense the...

Whenever someone says that, I ask "the trend from when to when". Example: From 2005 until now GLD +160%, SP500 +140%. Gold has outperformed the S&P for the last 13 years? So, is gold still in a bull market? Just being a devil's advocate here.:D

Something to consider: Speculators are hedge funds and retail. One is more short than ever and the other is long. Who wins? The larger of the two? Commercials are bullion banks (JP Morgan, etc.), mining companies, and jewelers. All seem to be more neutral right now. Is there a contrarian...

Yes, I could see that for short term signals, but what about a month or two out...or longer? The COT combined with some TA can be enough for a monthly position trade. Many times these hedge funds get caught on the wrong side and now we have a short squeeze for example that can last for awhile. I...

From what I understand there's usually been more long positions than short positions through every kind of market. What everyone watches is how short positions go from heavy to light. Sure, long positions change too, but there's always a certain percentage held...do to hedging purposes I...

Interesting. I've never used "retail" to determine sentiment in gold. Always looked at the commercials vs. the large speculators. Currently, the large specs are holding massive short positions...they're usually on the wrong side. As far as gold being a feel good trade, it hasn't made me "feel...

Pioneer Week was the best! Back then Chico didn't have the open container ordinance, if you were of legal drinking age...you could walk around with any open bottle and not be harassed. Unless of course, you looked like a little kid or you couldn't stand up. LOL I use to live in the apartments...
