    Old Possum's Book of Practical Charts

    In these brief precious moments left to me, I would like to say this in defense of all the maniacal traders out there. It is often said that "You'd have to be crazy to want to be a trader!" I go one step further and assert that you HAVE to be crazy to be a GOOD trader. As Baron kills my...

    I am going to stick my neck out and say that this SEVENTH day of constipation is where NQ finally takes its crap. I'll be dead before tomorrow, so what the hell.

    MM's are so unoriginal. What makes them think we would fall for the same trick twice? They must think we're stupid! We aren't! Are we?

    Do da word "Vee-Wop" ring a bell, Sapphire? No need to post a chart for this time of day. It looks exactly like the last six days.

    Old Possum's Book of Practical Charts

    Just to make sure that I never get that prop trading invitation (they make yo' w'ar shoes!), I will share with you the rationale for the oil trade my advisors just had me make. Madmen that they are, they were reading the minds of the Street, and channeled to me this composite conversation...

    Old Possum's Book of Practical Charts

    I am constantly amazed at how much alcohol consumption improves my trading ability. While I made those little scalps I was finishing off a $25 bottle of Moet White Star. Very tasty in the morning. Would that minor charactor flaw prevent me from getting a prop job on the Street? That plus being...

    MY cheering section forgot to post the "Little Red Line" (at 8:25 PT) that says to Merchant "Make your move, fat boy!"

    Ain't it amazin' that no one spits on your floor when you post executions? I would go to Candlefarter's thread and rudely reinvite him to do the same, but we're supposed to make nice in the new ET.

    tampa's Revenge

    Woodie will be in Dallas the night of 18 January to address AftTA. I would go and flame him myself, but I will be out of town. If you go and do something heinous, no one will know but you and me!

    Thanks for your explanation. So you are not watching a Bloomberg? Moi non plus. $132 a month to E-Signal is killing me. That's why I'm trolling for mentees on ET.

    Don't jive an old man! How does iceberg orders equate to price movement on negligible volume? If you figure out what the automatons are doing, for pity's sake don't post it here! Send it to Hypo. He'll relay it to me, as I plan to commit sewercide soon. I was chastised by the management for...

    Old Possum's Book of Practical Charts

    Merchant is also full of shit. I personally don't believe much in volume, except when it comes to price/volume divergences. My prime question is this: "If price is steadily stairstepping on invisible volume, do you stand aside?" But I put all kinds of volume derivatives on my chart, because the...

    Sorry about the misidentification of you with BDixon. I wasn't looking closely because I was making code adjustments in real time. E-Signal doesn't pull up tick charts after hours, so I have to waste some market time fucking with tuning parms. I have tried a multitude of styles. I find that...
