You, sir, are now provisionally qualified to apply for denizenship in Tejas Norte. Based on your prior postings, I will stand for you that you are a gun owner. No state taxes. Easy concealed handgun lisence (or is that license?). Horny ugly women. Cold winters. Hot summers. Corn won't grow...

Following the stunning success of the ET group posting lunch, the next day I convened a group discussion of ideas for solutions. I will share these separately, as each is highly idiosyncratic to the psychology of the ET poster who invented it. It seems that all of them had tried once or many...

I post with great trepidation that I will only give him ideas for improving the addictiveness of the site.

Hmmm. I think there might have been something comedically ironic in your post, but I can't quite grasp it. No matter. We will base our therapy upon four facts peculiarly common to all those addicted: 1 - You are deeply convinced that you have something significant to say 2 - When you...

Don't encourage him. The best way to deal with a bully is to bitch slap him. Scratch a sadist and you find a masochist.

Feel free to share, my son. Soon I shall set you free. Won't your very last post here feel so good?

We all know that it's an addiction. And one that detracts to a greater or lesser extent from our trading. My trading therapy clients cite ET as the number one impediment to their progression. So to find out what they mean, and why it is so consuming, I started spending more time here. Now...

If he is truly a friend, buy him a cheap-assed laptop computer and a month of mobile airtime on your own nickel and bring him here. I will personally make it my mission to communicate with him, oldster to oldster, about what he wants to be when he grows up.

"Jesus fucking bleeding Christ on a crutch! I see breaking resistance and resistance becoming support. And vice versa! Is that what you meant about trading being easy-peasy? Send me a bill, Doc, I gotta go trade!"

"Uh, Dr. Mudgins, do you see what I see? Like, that looks like round numbers at work, with the round number being multiples of five! Shouldn't we emphasize that with the price scaling?" (This bitch is sandbagging me!) "OK, here we go! This what you want?"

"Man, am I getting it now! But the window is too small, I really need to see some history, right? And I'm only trading the one thing on this timeframe, so I don't need the favorites bar." Thinking to myself, maybe this dipshit is on to something "No sooner done than said! Howdaya like this?"

Grateful awed client: "Oh, wow, that's just fucking great! I feel like I am one with the market! But do I really need to see OHLC now at that resolution? And I know what today is, and I can clearly see the time. Do I need that cursor window? And I can see relative price changes clearly, do I...

"But Dr. Mudgins, eSignal's choice of a daily default seems to be telling me I should swing trade, and that is way too dull. Also, I don't like that the candles go everywhich way. Some go up, then go down. Others go down and then up. It's hard for me to see what really happened. And with those...

So said client says "eSignal must know the best way to trade, because their default is a daily chart. And candlesticks must be the way to go because that's the default. And since up is green, and green is good, I should always trade long. And since red means stop don't go I should never trade...

This is a near literal recollection of a series of trading therapy sessions I had with a patient. He came to me with the presenting complaint "I want to trade and grow rich with no effort like the infomercials say I can, but I don't trust that their for-sale system is the real deal. Can you help...

Quit agonizing over it and just trade your systems that pop more freakwantly.

You trade. I trade. We could tell trading anecdotes all day about the shit that happens to us and that we see on the tape. But Jack never tells such stories, and I have read him closely for over ten years here. Also he never talks about nuts and bolts of trading, which can be 90% of successful...

Escape the cell that is your intuition? If you are making money trading CL with it, who needs a system? Back when the stock indices were correlated with CL, I had a data subscription because a common pattern was that CL would move but the indices wouldn't budge for a few minutes. Gave me time...

Only if you stayed in a pricy condo. Mustang Island is all I can afford.

Thank you for replying so candidly. My services are always available to you. I will leave to anyone else reading way down here to comment on the incompatibility of multiples of the daily range and getting rich instantly. So if you have forex price-only nailed, and are otherwise master of...
