Thanks for reposting. It was an excellent post. I think that a lot of guys look at the action at the end of the day today and feel like idiots, when really they should not. Unless you get in right away on the creeper days, as you said, you really dont get too much for low risk entries the rest...

There was a post by some one tonight about a creeper market. It's a perfect illustration of what we had today. I can't recall who posted it and in what subject. I don't have time to look now, but a search would be worthwhile. Brandon

While everyone's focus always seems to be on entry techniques experianced traders realize that your exit is the most important part of any trade (think of it this way, how much money have you lost on entries? Probably not any. How much have you lost on Exits?, possibly a lot, I know I have). So...

First I will say that I have never been a soldier, so its not my opinion based on any actual experience I have. I have two older brothers who are in the Army. One is in Iraq, one is in Colombia. When I got out of HS I wanted to join too but they would not take me due to health reasons. That was...

absolutly. for all the bitching and whining the rest of the world does about us we do the right thing. How many other countries in history have gone about rebuilding the countries they went to war with without annexing them? Then, leave with a very firm foundation to grow as a country and...

Is anyone else out there just amazed at how many retired generals and admirals we seem to have out there. I had gone my entire life thinking it was a rare thing, but retired general now seems like its in the top ten things that 60 year old retired men did in their employed lifetimes.

Im not an expert, but I think when you get right down too it most people will defend their country/homelands regardless of what they think of the people running it. During WW2 many of the German soldiers, even some top officers, did not particularly care one way or the other about the Nazi part...

I like Tradestreams product and the people there are great. I know John in Dallas and Mathias in Germany pretty well. I have also been involved in a very limited way in the development of the product (mostly with regards to giving idea's on features for technically biased traders). Brandon

I look at the daily, 120 minute, hourly, 15 minute for my trades. I like to see the trend in evidence in one or two of these and also a continuation pattern forming. Then I will use a smaller timeframe, 1,2,5 to get an entry on a reversal in that timeframe. Brandon

when you open a combonation lock, do you start off going left or right? Im going nuts trying to get mine open.

I have talked a lot in the past about scanning for opportunities each night: What to look for, how to approach it etc. These have always been very popular. One thing I have talked about less is scanning intraday and how to find opportunities there. I'd like to do that a little bit tonight...

Im not an expert on the milatary, but it seems to me that this might be the first "real" war (Iraq) that we have gotten into for some time. The stated purpose is to overthrow a government and replace it with one more to our liking. I suppose that the Gov't has done this for years, but its mostly...

That depends on the size of your account. If you have half a million dollars then trading 5 contracts (daytrade) is just as stupid as trying to trade 10 contracts with $10,000. Its just another kind of stupid. Brandon

Trading is a job, its not always the funnest thing I have ever done. I definatly find that people who try to be the jack of all trades are really the masters of none, and as a result never do very well. Most of the best traders I know have a few things they do over and over again. When those...

On Sunday night I sent an email out to all members and trial members advicing them to take long positions in the QQQ above 25.75 and the BBH above 92. As I know some of our trial members came from ET and a few have expired today will just put this out there. Should be locking in profits on these...

Over the next few days keep an eye on LLTC. It has a very nice 120 minute chart. Probably the best in its sector. Could provide for nice opportunity on a breakout. Brandon

[10:56] <brandon> news makes for a nice day [10:56] <brandon> :) [10:57] <brandon> most likely with this news out [10:57] <brandon> I will be finished for the dya [10:58] <brandon> will see what happens [10:58] <brandon> but this could be extremely good news [10:58] <brandon>...

BBC Reporting that Saddam is dead. Taking profits on all long trades into this move. Have MER and CAT. Did not have any shorts on. Brandon

Daniel, I do post losing trades. Every single trade I give, every single day is posted on ET. I also have a number of ET members who are in my room and if I was bullshitting Im sure they would call me on it. Why don't you come in and see what we do instead of sit here bitching and moaning all...
