    na, I'm at job #2 today, I will be trading on Tues Thurs and Fri this week I'll agree, the hunt for females definitely qualifies as an unhealthy distraction, but as I was discussing with ElecEquity earlier in this journal, having a down female around can be quite beneficial to players in this...

    Yeah, maybe I was! I went to karaoke with a lovely girl. I think we would be great in a relationship, we share a lot of values, though the only red flag is that she's never dated someone like me, and I've never dated someone like her. Neither of us our each other's typical 'type.' Though...

    I've been doing some research on the human imagination. It seems any time we take a stance, take a side, or rest on some sort of viewpoint, we create a world to support that outlook. I was looking at a potential trade the other day, I forget which one. Risk reward was to the short side...

    Sure you can find one stock and trade it. Problem with that is you are not always guaranteed good movement. All the technical BS people follow works best in trading in-play stocks. The patterns and levels formed are created by real buying and selling, not program noise and a few day traders...

    I haven't seen you mention a single stock yet that was in play. RIMM is not a good stock for Nasdaq trading, it has problems of its own. RIMM will be in play TOMORROW, AFTER they report earnings. So tomorrow, you should watch RIMM. In watching it, remember that since it is down over 10%...

    Why aren't all genius's rich?

    It is not everyone's goal in life to play the markets. Some people wonder more about the world around them than figuring out ways to rob others.

    My Path To Success

    If you have a successful system, why are you losing money? You say you are up, but your P&L is dwindling... If you have a proven, backtested system, you should just automate it. Your mock accounts are up, but you are down? Or am I reading something wrong???
