Psch 101 Delusion of grandeur is the fixed, false belief that one possesses superior qualities such as genius, fame, omnipotence, or wealth. Narcissist - a person deriving erotic gratification from admiration of his or her own physical or mental attributes. The narcissist has a wounded ego...

The SEC PDT rule was orchestrated by the snakes at the CME to force more traffic onto their exchange which they profit from. The CME lowered the bar down the floor when the PDT rule was made effective, this gave their big operator clients easy prey, the least experienced & least capitalized...

Those that are truly 'accredited investors' are the least likely to let strangers an on-line forum know this, the least likely people to be one are typically the person(s) that boast about being one. 99% failure rate? I like those odds, just means there is more $ to scoop up from those that...

As a swing trade holding overnight often I am not going over 1% the majority of the time. Novice traders learn to follow all their rules, real good traders know when to break them. I give myself up to 3 'fat pitch' trades per year where I will risk up to 2% and will pile on to a winner with...

I actually said this "Hmm - he does not look at higher time frames" Not a very bright idea - except for maybe a DOM trader. I see absolutely nothing a long term, or any trader for that matter can get out of Al Brooks - one reason of many: this Charlatan claims there is no risk in day trading &...

Al Brooks history is 10 years of losing than he turned into just another washed out day trader turned author/promoter of himself. He is crafty to only say he does not lose anymore, which is easy to do since he has not traded for a long time per those that investigated him...

Over the last 10 years you are right.

I did sign the petition. Banana republics have corrupt courts & banksters are buy nature typically deplorable. When it comes to criminal activity by banksters UBS has been leading the charge going back to at least WW2...

Investment bankers make their $ from their clients -90+% of them are net losers with their trading. My on-line brokers are not my enemy - that would be me before I truly treated trading like a business. The techniques & mind set that nearly all winning traders have in common is easily found...

Yea - the NYSE A/D is flawed - although the S&P 500 stocks are showing a new high on % advancing - looks good to me. Not making any predictions - just saying the breadth recently is strong.

Actually anyone could put on trades like those traders if they put in the work to learn. Smarter traders use only a very small portion of their capital, leveraging with their profits, not their principal. The answers are found in getting a black belt in risk/trade mgmt. Most traders are upside...

When your layer in and your first layer or two have made large profits, you can use your profits, not your principal, to build into a much larger position - a.k.a. the free ride - with a potential for a very large gain. This is how that Japanese trader CIS made $34M shorting the Nikkei IN...

George Soros was able to break the pound without breaking a sweat. He did that by adding on to his winning positions using his running profits - not his principal. That is asymmetrical reward-to-risk, this is sure a good way to make the big $ - at least for us swing & trend traders anyway...

New traders that just have to make >$150,000 per year are just about guaranteed to lose > $150k. If your in it only for big/quick/easy $ your far better off getting a second job. Now if you have at least $750k in a trading account already and have made some decent profits from investing/swing...

The fractions are simply the minimal tick size - stocks used to be traded the same way before decimalization began in 2001. 1 point = $,1000 Ticks per point = 1 point/decimal tick size

It seems like there is typically more range in the morning, and a larger directional moves in the afternoon and into the Euro open. Some years the market tacks on most its gains after hours. The 'Traders Almanac' has the historical performance based on: presidential cycle, seasonal influence...

Volume is what starts price movement & ends it, it is the wind in the sail. Here is an example of volume pointing to a blow off top - a huge increase in volume seen on weekly and 2hr chart. Give it some time and eventually using volume will make sense.

Trend lines appear in financial markets going back hundreds of years - some trend lines having stayed intact for decades. I am sure glad a lot of people do not believe in trend lines or Classic TA. As long as the majority of the crowd are non-believers that tells me I have a bright future...

MSG?

Jim Rogers knows markets, economics, history, & China like few do. Sounds like China will be looking to inflict as much pain as possible targeting the red states - Trumps supporters. This may be like having a chance to follow George Soro's on his famous pound short. Which there was a stock...
