    Name of reversal chart pattern?

    I don't even know if that is a reversal pattern but what difference does it make what you call it? You trying to find additional info on it or what?

    Steve46 and Samson77 ruined another thread

    So you think it is okay for the two of them to ruin another thread Spydertrader? That's because they don't go to your journals and disrupt it because neither of them trades imo. What would they do there?

    Steve46 and Samson77 ruined another thread

    That's right because Steve46 thread was a "challenge" to me personally- thus my response about the pissing contest. He posted it in another thread about taxes but I failed to see it there. But I answered his question as best I could. Then apparently Steve46 concluded- I was Samson77 and then...

    Steve46 and Samson77 ruined another thread

    Didn't you promise to permanently ban them both if they ruined another thread? Well how about keeping your word. They ruined this thread: http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?threadid=65109 Thank you.

    That sounds like a lot of money for the IBM. I think I paid maybe $200 a couple years ago for a genuine 10,000 rpm SCCI IBM. Why do you need 300GB? My trading computers are only 8-12 GB and are half empty even with windows 2000 Pro and a lot of other software. I only paid $50 brand new. I...

    Will I make it or never post here again?

    "You are the acknowledged "king" of traders here" Reminds me of the old George Burns joke: I wouldn't want to be a member of any country club who would have me as a member.

    Will I make it or never post here again?

    "I am sure you want to contribute just a little of your vast knowledge to the rest of us." Not even a little bit. Looks like you "contribute" enough for the both of us. BTW, I already responded to your dumb question in your OTHER post. (I read that tart cherries go past the brain barrier...

    Tax problem with daytrading futures in Roth IRA?

    Michael: If there is enough money involved get superb legal council. I recommended the law firm Jones Day because my neighbor works for them. They have offices in 30 countries and 2200 lawyers in the firm. There are plenty of great law firms like them. I'm sure you can locate one in your...

    Tax problem with daytrading futures in Roth IRA?

    NO, I made a lot of money in the ROTH betting long on Crude Oil, Gold and others. Long term trades looking at monthly charts. These were trades that lasted for a long time. I just traded enough to be in the correct contract months for my system. That's okay. That's what you're supposed to do...

    Tax problem with daytrading futures in Roth IRA?

    Michael: I apologize for leaving you hanging. I thought when I left the matter was resolved to the extent people would just continue to delude themselves into thinking everything is okay. First off, NO I was NOT audited and NO I was not scared off either. Here's what happened to me...

    Many people "talk" about an edge. Most don't even know what that really is and fewer actually have one but are reluctant or embarrassed to admit it. First find out what an edge is in futures and then set out to get a REAL edge before you throw your money away. If you are just a plunger no...

    Oh, I'm giving you real information allright. The worst part if you discovered it was okay for you that doesn't help me one damn bit. That's not the way it works. Again, my last word on the subject. Do what you think is best for you. Just trying to be helpful. I told you the proper way about...

    If you stick a 10,000 rpm SCCI hard drive in it you'll think you have a turbo boost. Not to mention the added reliability- rock solid. Never lose your data. They might have faster IBM SCCI now. Been a couple years since I bought hard drives. A guy was selling new IBM SCCI on ebay and I bought...

    My last response on this matter because I already know the answer. Where would you find this information other than tax cases and opinions handed down by the tax court? That's why I suggested competent legal counsel. Can't afford it? Chances are you don't need it then. So no problem. It is...

    Tax problem with daytrading futures in Roth IRA?

    YES and YES and anywhere they want to. The rules are deliberately vague. If what I think you're telling me is so, you too better look into it as well. The Roth IS bogus. It is an illusion if you "make it" in trading. Few do, so no one considers the alternatives. If your trades were years...

    Tax problem with daytrading futures in Roth IRA?

    That link was for you to hire a knowledgeable attorney and get the letter of intention if you so desire. I'm not suggesting you get any valid info off the internet either. If we're talking chump change why continue this? If a lot of money and possibly a lot of tax liability is involved hire a...

    Vhehn: I answered you in the other thread but since you posted this I'll respond. What you say is the SIMPLE stuff. That will certainly get you in trouble. But what you fail to get is the Roth is NOT a day trading vehicle. Period. If you trade it frequently, and do all the things that would...

    Michael: To answer your question about the laptop, I would buy another Toshiba Laptop off the top of my head. However, I haven't investigated them in over a year and the last one I used was very disappointingly slow. Unless things have changed recently, the hard drives in laptops are inferior...
