    add to a losing positon

    I never add to a losing position and always keep my stops in upon entry; however, I have no problem re-entering the position the instant my stops get hit if that's the trade I feel needs to be done. A waste of a commission+spread it may seem, but a far smaller price to pay in comparison to the...

    Tomorrow...Explosive?

    I don't think trade-ya is here to make some one-time prediction to wow the crowd -- from his prior posts, I have a feeling he does something like this every day. If he's right, he will make a profit; if wrong he loses. But I think that's the plan from the start. Besides, usually by the time...

    Tomorrow...Explosive?

    Nice to hear a gameplan posited for today. I think one issue that might cause some volatility is the possibility of removal of "measured pace" -- last meeting, the street was assuming a drop of that phrase would imply a possiblity of 50 hike in the near future. However, this time around...

    Chinook's EUR/USD (E/$)Mumblings

    Nice way to stay with the short. I'm bummed cuz I shorted gold last night and woke up to myself getting stopped out near the high of the move -- figures the one day gold starts ignoring the dollar, ah well :).

    Learning T/A

    Just my opinion: TA is for those who don't have the time/resources/inclination to bother learning about what makes the market move in the first place -- why that support or resistance was broken, etc. It's perfectly legit to trade on T/A alone, but know that you'll always be a few steps behind...

    Do Trendlines work?

    In this day and age, that's pretty much it in a nutshell. Support and resistance lines are "obvious" entry/exit points that are almost always tested/broken -- whether or not they consistently provide profitable setups is questionable imo.

    Managed Futures Index down almost 10 % -- horrible April again

    Forgive my ignorance, but is there an "Unmanaged" futures category?? The term "managed" makes sense when used viz a viz index funds, but what is the corollary in futures to begin with?

    Is trading Gambling or not .."What say You" Vote here.

    Not fighting at all, wasn't my intention to disparage anyone's methods and apologize if it sounded that way. Was just playing devil's advocate with the attitude that trading is somehow on a higher plane than pure gambling, and the idea that most here would prefer some kind of method which...

    Is trading Gambling or not .."What say You" Vote here.

    And make 30-50% year over year? If you say so, but I'd imagine the commercial traders have inventory with which to offset, among other differences . . .
