The Arabs weren't forced to leave Israel, but they had no choice. Every persecuted European Jew during the 1930s and 40s made their way to Palestine and effectively displaced the Arab population. The Jews had better political organization and after the atrocities of the Holocaust, the United...

One that would also absorb all trading losses and spit out cash like an ATM when you make winning trades.

How large is your share size? I think .05 or .10 stops are too tight. You'll end up getting whipped around all over the place (especially in market stocks). It's better to scale into a position and add onto it if it moves in your favor versus getting large size at one price and sweating...

It's not a rally, it's a dip trip short!

I think the strong down trends are pretty much behind us. Now the market is entering the choppy, sideway phase. Most traders in my group are now equally short and long depending on the individual stock. Also, their stop loss points are a little tighter because of the increased volatility.

and equally important, market conditions and available trading capital.

Behind Enemy Lines or Debbie Does Dallas, depending on your mood.

ICE ICE BABY....:D

Since when did Don shave his head?:D

Nihaba hit the nail in the head! No one indicator is "better" than the other. Stochastics are not a mysterious, arcane science. RS7 should pick up a book on technical analysis and all of his questions will be answered. He can't expect everything to be spoonfed to him. There is no TA holy...

You're going into the only profession where you can put in a hard day's work and end up LOSING money! Let's face it, the market makes mincemeat out of newbies. You'll need all the financial help you can get until you learn to be somewhat profitable. Screw pride and independence! Be practical...

Yeah, I've done the same shit several times, but unlike your situation, the market didn't bail me out. Fortunately, I don't do that stuff anymore. I try to stick to my stops like a robot. I don't care how much money I leave on the table as long as I book my profits and my downside risk is...

I have them on a few mornings when stocks are flying. Order entry becomes sluggish (even with my hot keys) and sometimes my software freezes intermittently. These occurrences are the exception, not the norm. My tech staff tells me that it's a Nasdaq problem because of the volume surge but I...

Live a life of sin and debauchery that would make Caligula blush. :D

Who the f%$@ cares?

How did Lundy do today? Or did he blow out his trading account over the past two weeks looking for today's rally?

Which part are you having trouble understanding? I'm saying that volatile market stocks move very erratically and it's hard to get good entry points because of the way they whip around. Many traders have a hard time correctly guaging their moves (unless it's a strong trending day). On choppy...

It's much easier to get 1 to 2 points out of stocks that gap up or down in the morning than trading market stocks. Although it's possible to get 1-2 points a day out of the KLACs, MSFTs and EBAYs, it's equally possible to LOSE that many points a day because of their whipsawing moves and ECN games.
