Most retail pikers would benefit with a visit to a trading floor whether its exchange or an investment bank just to see not only volumes but sheer size of individual orders. That could be enough for them to see how small or insignificant they are, and why they should always go with the flow and...
Yes been looking at sugar as well, there are no retail lemmings or pikers on board Sugar #11 yet, and open interest, volume are quite low. Sentiment is just right, is in perfect territory,just a waiting game now....., just to wait.....:cool:
There are more sellers than buyers... :p
Or it might have something to do with the fact that since end February we have had the largest short interest in corn (65% of contracts) in last 5 and half years ( 2001 ish )....
Or historically corn breaks mid May and comes back mid August...
Depends on what skin colour you are and where you are. A black skin is a non-starter in London. When l was at University, we forced a change to marking term work and exams against student ID numbers, and you can guess the miracle...all of a sudden it appeared that negroes such as myself were...
I have two brokerage accounts there with www.boom.com and www.fullbright.com.hk . Boom best if its going to be simple stuff, but fullbright if you want to chase fancy stuff like shorting, hedging with covered warrants and doing all sorts of straddles.
Personally the order entry clerks...
Forget the Pro's or Cons of speculating, investing or marketmaking, whats most fascinating here on ET and other boards is that there are people constantly ranting and raving about what the market should do :eek: ! What they don't realise is that in most markets they trade there are players who...
Gave up my sex life, its kinda funny when you go out say in grocery store and girls starts hitting on you but say l am not interested. As for getting laid more its all in the mind. SIMPLE, learnt that in my early 20's. But Socrates try not to compare sex and trading, sex is a couple of minutes...
Probably 10000th time l am saying this search my username on Google Images ------- Cygnus Atratus
But what you have to realise about 10 Sigma events is that you will appreciate or understand them well after they have happened. If you find your self calling it a Black Swan then you have...
There are retail traders with fully scalable methods or strategies that make these twaddle funds or turtle soup types look like jokers. You have to realise that having a Bloomberg terminal and an army of PhD's & Quants will not rescue you from flawed strategy or risk management.
Its only...
This thread is quite typical of all threads on the internet whether its retail pikers or full time/professional traders trading their own accounts
YOU THINK TOO MUCH, JUST GO WITH THE FRIGGIN FLOW SHEESH, TRADING IS TOUGH AS IT IS WITHOUT ADDING OUR PERSONAL BIASES FOLKS !!
You could...
Below is a domain registry search l ran, when my neighbour comes back l will ask him to do searches for both websites for me. He is an Web/IT security consultant. Its bad enough having to fight internal demons when trading, last thing retail pikers need is someone to potentially scam them as...
He is swing trading....plus he was institutional for 4/5yrs
I flip IPO's ( on HKEx and BSE ) and have 4 medium to long term systems trading other markets (from pork bellies to Mexican Peso). LSE could be daytradable but l think there is a smaller universe of stocks to select from. lts...
HAHA ,well said, well well said, once lemmings are in you know its time to run,especially so when there is poor knowledge on the workings and risks in the trade.... I hear quite a few young,bored and frustrated Japanese housewives are doing it as well..... :D
Use Google Images for my handle..............Cygnus Atratus, I exist, l may be a 50 Sigma event but l exist, never ever deny my presence.
On a serious note l strongly suggest you stop trading until you know things like settlement procedures,transaction methods and what you are actually...
