    Your Trading style: Careful TA, or spray n pray/law of large numbers?

    Yeah, OK. Great. And when you get a "red day", you'll probably be lucky if you don't get knocked out completely. Guys like you think you invented this " trading" thing. When you see brokers like Credit Swisse trading in low single digits, That was not an "Act of God". That was a bunch of...

    The FED

    No, no. Part of account authentication, websites either verify emails or phone numbers. ( in the absence of persistent cookies). Elite trader was trying to verify my email in a different state. But I was already not able to get those mails. service was discontinued by the move. Recent move, I...

    The FED

    I remember I couldn't use the Gomez Addams avatar. Somebody else had that, back then. Very parochial, no change, then and now.

    The FED

    Not exactly. I first joined Elite Trader in 2006 (pretty sure) But I have physically moved, sold primary residence, etc. With local ISPs. When people physically move, its important to move all accounts // passwords etc. I haven't done that so well. So, eventually I lost some accounts. Now...

    LOL !!! When it comes to debt, there is a huge difference between peacetime debt (we barely still have) and wartime debt. Please try to think about the distinction before you reply again. We are moving into very serious times.

    CS

    CS commands a reverence. At least the FED thinks so. CS brought AMZN public. Frank Quattrone, a modern day rainmaker. 24th Street and Madison Ave.

    I don't think I fall into the category of "noob" traders. I first got registered Series 7 in April 1982. That was 4 months before this bull market started.

    The FED

    I like the Russian chart better than the $SPX. $SPX is displaying a huge negative Divergence,on the monthly chart. Russian stock market is not. This divergence is probably a reflection of debt levels. The U.S. has national debt of nearly 140%, and Russia has national debt at less than 40%. Big...

    Difference in LT rates (15% below $500K) and short term rates (regular income) are a strong incentive to go LT. To find LT trade candidates, I'm a big fan of MACD crossovers. To see LT changes in MACD requires a lot of historical data. So I suspect many "traders" here opt not to pay for the...

    Daily is showing Positive Divergence (+D) on both oscillators daily and then clearly +D on the weekly RSI. Looks good here.

    The FED

    Seems the problem in the very near term is more about the EU, than about the U.S. Around the globe, everybody seems to have been preoccupied with 21st Century stuff, like Cloud Servers and Peleton bikes. Nobody even bothered to think about heating the houses in Germany. OOPS!! I used to work...

    The FED

    It's not like no country ever had a printing press before. They all know about that fiat currency "razzle-dazzle" The locals who lived through this know what happened. (Although they certainly did not want those things to happen). But the people living in the contemporary world have NO idea...

    The FED

    In the 1920s, Allies including France and Great Britain began to fear that Germany would not pay back the war debts proscribed in the Treaty of Versailles. That incident eventually devolved into the historical catastrophe popularly called World War Two. We have one ET member who says the U.S...

    The FED

    You are wasting your time. This message board moves from fact to fiction and back again. "The U.S. does not borrow. That's just a myth. The U.S. has no real debt." There is NO SUPERVISION. Posters can write any kind of non-sense they can dream up. I think Lenin nailed it. He called them...

    The FED

    Look, U.S. and Japan are on polar opposites. Americans save nothing. Japanese save everything. *** The FED cannot buy back all the debt because the U.S. has no savings. The FED is buying some back now, but that is a problem too. 'nuf said.

    You obviously know NOTHING about TA. Nothing wrong with that. But just never imply to anybody that you do know something about it.
