hehe. yeah buddy, taiwan poses a HUGE threat to china. please!

you had no choice. you THINK you decided, but you really had no choice. hence the word "illusion". no comment on my the rest of my argument? doesn't surprise me.

have a look at http://finance.yahoo.com/m2?u just to get an idea of the volume of index components and their daily ranges.

'long, what are you trying to say, the markets ONLY went up during that period? come off it. i take it you weren't trading back then, otherwise i doubt you'd be saying what you just did. you ALWAYS had to know how to trade. the dollar volatility was just a lot bigger back then. people...

well, i would argue that it's proven, as far our rational faculty goes, that your conception of this unkown entity is IMpossible, insofar as it violates logic. but, as you keep saying, you won't except this contradiction because you think logic is insufficient. well, you really have nothing...

another dreamer, wanting to have his cake and eat it too. if it's an ILLUSION, dimwit, it's not REAL. we don't REALLY have free will after all. answer this question shit for brains, could armstrong have EVER done ANYTHING THAT WOULD DISQUALIFY HIM FROM BEING AN ASTRONAUT? fuck no! there...

oh man i hope not, i think jimmy cramer would burst a vein if that happened..

ADX where did you get your information from that Eurostoxx50 trades 200k/day? From looking at the "contracts traded" statistic on the Eurex website, there was only one day in September with less than 400k and quite a few over 500k. Maybe the volume was a lot less than this in other months...

alain, to what sort of profit levels (in pts) are you saying that you've found 12-16pt stops to be best for?

see that is exactly where the illusion part comes into it. because if you had chosen anything but X, god wouldn've been wrong. and that is not allowed. let me use that Neil armstrong example again. god KNEW armstrong would be an astronaut. ok? again, imagine i asked god and he told me...

what part of this don't you get tripack: i ask god, "what will tripack be doing on oct1"? since god knows everything that is going to happen, he tells me tripack will be doing X. what will you be doing on oct 1 tripack? X right? if you do ANYTHING BUT X god would've been wrong. right...

there couldn't be ANYTHING that i could do that would surprise an all-knowing god. let's look at what "all-knowing" means. it means that this god knows EVERYTHING. there cannot be one little thing that he could not know. agreed? he would know exactly what my thoughts are right now, and...

hahahaha! you'll stop at nothing! :D "ooh, yuck, i don't like the idea of my god being prone to fuck ups, i'll just pretend i didn't hear that". i doubt you're an agnostic 'boat, i think you definitely believe in a god. a god you try to shield through incomprehensibility. i'm sure...

tripack, i'm not at all sure what your examples are intended to prove. in all of those cases the possibility that the one "knowing" what the outcome is going to be COULD BE WRONG is inconsequential. the mother "knew" what the child wanted for breakfast, but, drat, the kid changed his mind, so...

the bombing campaign wasn't so much to get rid of milosevic, as it was to curb the exodus the albanians of kosovo fleeing their homes from persecution of serbian armed forces. it was more to avert a humanitarian disaster than to force a change of regime (although it ultimately helped to do that).

come off it 'Boat! i thought it was obvious i was being sarcastic. do you serioulsy think that i haven't considered all angles a milion times over? sheesh, what kind of idiot do you take me for! i think YOU are the one that is yet to "get it". stating that it is possible for "god" (that...

i'm not sure that the number of companies in an index is a good explanation for the choppiness of its futures product, especially with the huge distortion the weighting of the biggest companies in the sp500. either way, i think the choppiness of the es is one of its most attractive features...

just in case some people didn't bother to read that article, here's a portion of it that i feel is quite pertinent: What's especially widespread in Asia, though, is not just doubt but fear -- that a Western attack on Iraq would erect a wall of mistrust between the West and the Muslim world...

hi pabst. as far as i'm aware there is no uptick rule on european equities. i'm not sure whether this was a result of the introduction of SSFs there though.

bearing in mind that you don't actually have a clear idea of what it is you are asserting has the possibility of existing... what a garbled creature this "god" is :D after 300 pages, we've agreed that SOMETHING, that we don't currently have a clear knowledge of, COULD exist! Progress! :D
