    When the thrill of trading is gone

    True, at one time I was an adrenaline junkie but forced myself to stop. Several funerals and the realization that I wasn't super human made me just stop. Got married and as the kids came the temptation to get crazy left. Never liked booze or drugs but the rush of stunts is very addicting and one...

    When the thrill of trading is gone

    I knew several Czech engineers and these guys were extremely disciplined with their work and saving habits. A few pooled their money and bought a chute (1) and some para gliding equipment. On holiday, they would go to the mountains of Slovakia for a few weeks of eXtreme biking, gliding...

    IBD turns completely bearish

    They were all cash/money market then. They tried to establish a small position to 'test the waters' but exited and remained cash, to the best of my knowledge, until 2003. I don't use IBD but did years ago and I know the influence O'Neil has on some very deep pockets.

    Three Killed In Chicago Fire over Indian Caste System

    Sad, I'll agree but the issue here isn't India or social order. The underlying problem is much larger. Extremes such as mental illness, depravity, rage, jealousy, murder...etc. don't discriminate. They don't care about the colour of your skin or to whom you pray. Extremes are equal...

    Do you listen to CNBC?

    never I can't fault anyone if CNBC(insert fav here) helps your profitability. For me, it would only serve as a distraction. Actually I seldom watch any TV at all. Once again my choice. I have news filters but if something is up, I'll see it in my charts before it hits the wire.

    25 Years & $100 Million Profits... A to your Q's, Today Only

    gnome, What is your favorite low risk trade (gimmick) trade with the least amount of risk/time exposure. e.g. slingshot. This excludes your present proprietary strategy and would infer to something in the public domain that isn't exploited on a large scale to date. No such strategy...
