Thanks for taking notice. I also did a 'complain', although I think those bans are what this lowlife lives on. I agree on the 'ignore' attitude in general, but this was too agressive. I'd even suggest finding a way to ban IP's, since he will come back of course. I support Damon's request to...

Excuse me?!...

You will in a few weeks from now. Let us know when you switch back to XP. I don't know why you bought a new laptop, but if it is for the better performance of the latest hardware (which is what you'r paying for) then be aware that running Vista with all options down to lowest will run almost...

Yes, you're right of course. I was visualizing OP's method as trend-follow, so my view was narrowed. Thanks. Ursa..

It is a real shame that an, at times very interesting thread like this can't, after running for a year and a half, get a good rest and a frustrated kid like this comes by to wake it up. A sad ending. The next revolution in internet will be the idiot-filter. Ursa..

I use the term 'momentum' in it's broader, general meaning, as in persistant continuation of movement in the chosen direction. Not a a technical indicator or such. Is there another reason to buy besides the expectation that the move upward will sustain for a bit? Ursa..

I agree, the term 'basher' is vey apt. Ursa..

OK, enough warnings for this man. Just let him do his thing, we need a living too. Ursa..

Good board and good initiative, we'll probably see the first Linux-Dell's very soon. But please don't think for a minute that the 'loud and clear' XP message came from the IdeaStorm board; it came from sales&marketing department I'm certain. The order-hesitation that rolls to another brand will...

It is very simple, when you go long it is because you assume the momentum is upward. At what decline-level would you say your assumption is wrong? Put the stop there. The fact that prices go back after you stop was hit doesn't mean that your stoploss was wrong. You will be right and wrong...

CNBC is professionally made garbage TV, like most networks in the US. It has nothing real to offer to a serious trader, watching tickers is a waste of time. As for breaking news, I'm almost certain that the first that knew something was awrong 9/11 were those watching their charts. For the...

The insurance mentioned is covering against "'broker failure", probably meaning technical stuff like downed networks while open positions. I'm not at all certain that it covers "fraud", which is essentially "customer failure" until proven otherwise. Since def didn't point to this insurance I...

Bloomberg is simply what a financial TV network should look like, nothing more or less. It shows how strong the forces in the world of finance are, allowing a quality network to survive among the cheap circus shows. Maybe there is still hope for US television, although I don't hold my breadth...

There you go wrong: that next day you need to make $200, not $150. After 2 days your eq-curve should read $100. And if you again lose $100, the third day you need to make $350. Three loserdays in a row are not uncommon and will happen. So you will need those 'big-winner' days, they're essential...

Some merit to that rule. But is also means that if if you hit the $61 stop you have to wait a day and then have to make +$120 to even make the average. So during that second day you try to win 120 with a stop at 60. If the stop is hit, the 3rd day you are to win 180 with a stop at -60. Hard. If...

Correct explanation. Imagine the theta slope downwards to 0 at expiration: this curve is interupted by the weekends which would be a discontinuity. Discontinuities do not exist in nature so the gap has to be bridged. The effect is noticable on Thursday afternoon already. Ursa..

Exactly, or Buttontrader, or whatever DOM-based orderclicker. I got the impression someone was trying to scalp with an order-page. That would be rather ridiculous. But maybe I misunderstood. Ursa..

Order page? :confused: Ursa..
