My point is that imo an examination of the alternatives is very revealing. When I was younger I believed in the occult and had several supernatural experiences, but I am thankful every day to be free from that bondage. I think of people in other religions exactly as I thought of myself...

And let me ask you for your gut level feeling: do you really want to pray to a pantheon of Hindu gods even if they have supernatural powers? I don't think so. I'm not trying to slam anybody, but I am sincerely thankful that our nation has always been free from polytheism. Here's another...

I shall return, but right now I'll attend to the business of keeping myself from getting fired.

I'll read thru them, but I live in a fish bowl, i.e. corporate cubicle land you for the next 9 hours...

**************************************************** I agree in the longer term buy/hold strategy... How would you trade intraday or swing??? Fundamentals work??? **************************************************** Don't do intraday but as far as swing: Just meant if I backtest a...

I mnt His FACE hidden...

**************************************************** so when i come upon self-contradictions in the bible, like Genesis 32:30 and John 1:18 ("I have seen God face to face" and "no man hath seen God at any time") i write the bible off as untrue...

Sometimes I think 95% of TA (swing time frame) is just random noise blowing around the real force that drives most stocks: fundamentals. Noone likes to talk about it, but stocks with good earnings will generally beat out their ugly counterparts in the long direction using almost any TA...

But I still maintain that post 10 -34 seconds, nothing holds a candle to the Genesis account. Gotta go get 5 hours of sleep at least...

**************************************************** Well, you better watch out saying the bible is the "one and only" book that resembles with scientific theories... **************************************************** You're right: I should have been more careful in my wording. A little...

**************************************************** read a book a while back that theorized that the universe merely expands and contracts much like a ball being filled with air and conversely having the air sucked back out once it has reached its maximum. This would suggest that just...

************************************************** re genesis: it took an army of christian apologists working overtime to reconcile its story with scientific 'fact', and the end result (which is still shaky) requires such a stretch of imagination i can't see how anyone in their right mind...

Noone knows what happened before 10 -34 seconds, so I wasn't referring to that imo speculative time period. I am referring to post 10 -34. After that time, I am simply saying everything fits beautifully with Genesis. That's all.

I will look up Quentin Smith as I can't imagine where he's coming from. The Big Bang means a universe about 14 billion years old, an earth about 4 billion years old and life a fraction of that. That's why Einstein with his cosmological constant, Sir Arthur Eddington with his Oscillating...

I respectfully disagree. I believe truth can be known beyond a "reasonable shadow of a doubt" by simply examining objective evidence. By looking at the scientific evidence one can, imo, see that one and only one holy book matches the Big Bang and subsequent progress of life on planet earth...

*********************************************** I am not yet and will not ever be bound to a specific religion (as slave perhaps). *********************************************** I've never understood that thinking. The underlying implications, of course, are that one cannot be correct...

************************************************* That would be my guess as well, but how much of that crossover is the result of the desire of the Christian and Islamic faiths' to expand, where as the Eastern religions just don't really care about expansion? And along those same lines...

I'm curious - you said that IBD is making you money. But not by a strict CANSLIM/Breakout methodology, right? Or did you just take his procedures and "tweak" them (if you don't mind me asking)?

Just read his book and appreciated his straightforward presentation of what he "believes in" (unlike so many other "gurus" that write cryptically so they always have an escape door built for when their system doesn't work). But I just can't imagine that any multiday break out system could work...

he/she is probably complaining about the 3 day settlement on cash accounts. all i gotta say is that's more than made up for in my mind by the $1 commissions.
