jonbig, Discipline is to achievement as oxygen is to life. If it needs to be mentioned then obviously it is missing. The devotees of trendlines need to do a little homework to move this thread ahead. Pick an instrument, ES,YM etc and study the price waves carefully. You are looking...

Yes OCO should do it regards f9

pc Without a bar frame reference, your diagonal trendline comments will not mean much to the followers of this thread. regards f9

Having lived in Argentina and Brasil for five years, you cant help but notice the resistance to change by all sectors of the community including the poor. The concept of " for the common good" is an alien thought and greatly mistrusted because it involves the gov. at some level or other...

I gather you never turn off your car or space shuttle either. That is interesting to know because Senora f9 was complaining about the noise from our parked shuttle the other night, and I exained that it stated quite clearly in the NASA handbook never to turn it off with the key. Monthly...

China has substantial potential in a rising middle class. Does this mean US has weight watchers. This flirtation with massive credit inside an economy that believed deficits did not matter will pass into history along with WMD. Namely the fools who caused all the damage will pass...

CC useage is on the up and up each month, whilst core debt is also increasing. I imagine CC companies have decided that near to 1T is sufficient debt to play with and will allow fees and penalties to do the hard graft rather than growth. regards f9

Are you seriously suggesting segregating sex and higher education. Who would have ever thought of that ... regards f9

Cheer up John, they had 48B regards f9

Yes, but it doesn't deal to the underground issue where cash reigns supreme. Paying tax or not paying tax is a national pastime. In NZ, everything is linked through the tax department including international arrivals, departures and credit cards. If you spend three weeks out of the...

In Argentina, our Tax House is offering a completely clean tax slate to all small Companies who are prepared to register ALL their employees. They are going to need to offer a better block of cheese than that .... something like 40% of the economy is underground and likely to stay there...

Quite frankly 90% of what I learned in a NZ University in the 60's was either irrelevant or dead wrong. The other 10% I could have home schooled myself. The fun, the sports, the girls, the parties however at the taxpayers expense were irreplaceable. regards f9

The great strength of Universities is that they pass on what they know. The great weakness of Universities is that they pass on what they know. regards f9

The Harvard Fund is looking to lose 10B maybe more by the end of next year. Would any of the Fund managers have been products of Harvard I wonder. regards f9

Assuming US market is 14T and 70% is consumer driven then 2T = a contraction of 20%. But let us assume that those with jobs rediscover the joys of cash and it's attendant perks. Certainly Walmart, Macs etc will not come to the party but all the small businesses will be driven to offering...

What is PA. Like most things in life PA is much simpler than our brains are trained to handle. When price is at a tick it will chew through the limit orders at that level and then it is either stuck or along comes a market order and pushes the little sucker to another level. I know that...

Now here is an interesting case in point for IF to ponder upon and no doubt add to his confusion. I am certainly not disagreeing with anything in this post, after all it is not my position to disagree with anything to do with trading. However ..... I never draw trendlines...

Job loss exceeding 1M for Feb+ March '09 would not surprise me regards f9

Excellent point thank you dc. I didn't write that comment with as much clarity as perhaps I should. I should have said "multi screen" analysis. regards f9

IF Good to see you are still onboard the trading boat. By now you have read so much information/ guesswork/ BS etc that you have reached saturation point ... well that is good place to be. It helps you take stock. None of us at any time in our lives must allow the mere fact that we do...
