Why is Baroque music so exciting? | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Because it's a trill a minute

I hate to be so dense to need an explanation, but: Was the fact that the person hiding the sticks was a tuba player rather than other instrument significant? Was the point of this that the one person who makes less actual music than the drummer is the conductor? Excuse my denseness, I'm...

Seriously, I don't think being open to market's direction means you need to deny any directional signals you rely on. It just means be willing to make your decision based on those signals as you receive them, rather than saying to yourself "the news said blah blah about Greenspan, etc., so...

I don't know where this thread is going, and I doubt anyone else does either.

Thanks. Anyhow, one thing I do really like about E-minis is you can trade them through the night (except friday and saturday nights). If you think the wise thing to do is bail, you can, long before the opening bell. In fact, that's what I did yesterday, I closed my position at 6:00 am. That's...

I'm flattered you're going to all this effort, however: why are you bothering, when you can see how clearly useless this approach has been for me the last two days? The main thing was to identify that everything was going to drop like a rock from 10:00 am monday through today. I failed at...

Actually I had to sit through 48 (at the extreme) points move against me. Version77 is correct, I was using HOPE. But is that really the worst thing to use? It is if you're trading options, because of time-decay. Well, if the fancy analytics are so much more useful than my blind hope, did...

Just be glad you didn't take my leads, I'm down pretty badly at the moment.

Ok, I'm down $150 for buying QLGC yesterday. Obviously my marvelous method is pretty flawed. Bought 1 MXIM SSF at $36.80. We'll see how it goes. I think I can accurately sum up my current situation with the word: crap-a-doodle-doo.

My response: This war is not a just war. This war is a manipulative contrivance by the Bushes to push their own personal longstanding vendetta. The World Trade Center attacks were deftly used by the Bush regime to manipulate this country's consent to their psychotic obsession with Hussein...

I don't mind your generalizing at all. Quite appreciative of you taking the time. I would comment about whether what you have said mirrors the Peers strategy, if only I understood what you wrote. Sorry, I obviously am completely non-technical.

Well reasoned Ebo :confused: {squiggles of sarcasm rising from my bald smiley head} Perhaps my protests and all other protesters are contributing to the market swings you wish to attribute to the war. So in like manner, if you are so in favor of our presence in Iraq, you should stop profiting...

The express purpose of the original post in this thread was to remind people of the path which we took which brought us to the revolution at Lexington, and to point out the bitter irony of the fact that we have taken on the role the British played on that date. Perhaps adding to the irony is the...

People are willing to be led like sheep, even by a wolf. When they start to see more and more dismembered sheep, however, the flock will gradually clue in to the notion that the wolf is someone to avoid, not follow. If the Iraqis willingly support this invasion, hopefully some good may come out...

Another element in an Edge I think would be to try to reach some understanding about the importance of Timing trades. For instance, as we saw yesterday, monday morning open seems a unique thing to study. You could probably create a system based solely on trading the monday open. Call it Surge or...

Just to restate, I don't claim my "Peers trading" method is worth calling an Edge or even much of a system. It's just an approach I go for. Obviously, my pick yesterday, or my call of the direction was either Wrong or Early. I am willing to bet that picking QLCG from my group will turn out...

Except if the "lady' is a feminist, she might be put off. Although, the extra garlic might be enough to put her off regardless. arf arf!

There are many U.S. veterans protesting this war, saying "Support Our Troops: Bring Them Home". Once they're back, there's no point in protesting. The point is to protest the fact that they are there, and shouldn't be.

If Bush and Blair succeed in imposing their will on Iraq, make certain that the people of Iraq (those who survive our attacks on them) are guaranteed their rights to life (many Iraqi men, women and children are being killed by us right now) liberty and that the oil of Iraq belongs to the people...
