This says it all: "Disclaimer: If I ever make a personal fortune from web startups, there's still a part of me that would like to give algorithmic trading one last try. There, I said it." Lack of "soul", lack of "community", "it's all about the money". His reasons for disliking automated...

Take a look at this: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/44668677/ns/world_news-europe/?GT1=43001 The two officers detaining Knox in the photo are guilty of far worse crimes than she is accused of, but that is me "judging a book by it's cover." Remind me never to go to Italy...they got some...

Truer words have never been spoken, IMVHO. The trend is our friend...

Wow...110k+ cars traded at 4pm EST. Short covering, or longs getting ready for the gap up at the open tomorrow?? Hmmm... I am so happy I was done by 11am today, this never-ending uptrend is enough to make one CRAZEE!! :p

Once again proving the wisdom of the saying "Karma is a bitch." :eek:

But what if the house burns down?? Vacuum seal the cash and bury it in the yard, or some other location, with locator marker balls so you can find it later.

Taking up golf is a great suggestion, as if you are as competitive as you seem to be, you will immediately become addicted to the game. Golf is something you can never master, and it's a great way to spend time outdoors, away from the computer. You are addicted to the "rush" you get from...

And now this: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/44666657/ns/world_news-south_and_central_asia/t/afghan-employee-kills-us-citizen-embassy-annex/ Notice it says "Afghan employee of the US Government." I wonder what his security clearance level is. Hmmm, a lesson to be learned here? Maybe we...

I can't wait to wake up tomorrow and see how that trade is going. Looks like one helluva move down is imminent...

I agree, I think it's possible to make a living taking the opposite side of whatever CNBC calls. I learned many years ago that there is nothing to be gained by looking to their commentary for market direction. Sorry to see you go, I have enjoyed your posts, and insightful commentary on the...

Good one...two thumbs up!! :p

Just look at the response that the Wall Street protesters were met with the last couple of days, and that was tame. We criticize other nations and their use of force against peaceful protesters, but you better believe we will and do use equal force if ayone dares threaten our authority. I love...

Agree with that, maybe that's the reason for the "recall"!! :p

Yeah, it was a Mc Twist alright, as I twisted my foot ninety degrees to the right, and it stayed there. I rode a small wave into some shallow water, and when I stepped off my foot planted as my body twisted. It was the most sickening feeling as everything gave inside my leg, and I knew...

ChrisFutures: Thanks for that post, an excellent reminder of what NOT to do, and exactly what I did last Friday. I was up for the week, and though I don't usually trade Fridays, I put on a trade anyway. The reason was greed, I had a good week going, and wanted to make it better. Long story...

Me too, gave up skateboarding when I took up golf in middle school. Then got into motorcycles and found a new way to hurt myself, quit that and got into surfing...would you believe I managed to break an ankle surfing??? I love to trade, and watching the markets can be (and has been at times)...

??? You said target was 29.75, ES trading at 30-31. If you didn't move the target, how are you still in the trade?

There's your 29.75. Nice trade. Or did you move the target again?

So you got stopped out of the original trade at 1125, which was B/E, after you had a nine point winner in hand. You reentered at 23.25, which may or may not work. I took the short at 11:20 on a setup I got on the 5 min chart, and have held despite the trade going against me for 6+ points. My...
