    Uber drivers can now lease cars through uber... But prices look insane!!

    Most of these guys that are UBERing have little or no credit history. UBER makes it possible for them to get into an acceptable vehicle for the job by essentially self financing through a third party affiliate. And 650/mo is NOT a good lease price, at least for the general public with decent credit.

    Windows 10

    I stuck with XP until it was just about to lose support. No regrets. Using Win 7 Ultimate I plan on doing the very same thing. Let others be beta testers ( even though it is well beyond beta testing stage ). Unless Win 10 offers you features you need to continues doing business as usual, don't...

    Is Trading a profession or a hobby?

    It's a hobby until you lose all your hobby money...then it becomes your business or you move on.

    I don't want to tarnish the ES Journal

    Because I don't see it yet in my analysis. This does no mean that yours in wrong.

    I don't want to tarnish the ES Journal

    I must admit, I read it everyday, but do not post because I am a bit of a loner (only here, I have a big family) . However, the potential for a very popular pattern is setting up. The truth is it is WAY BEYOND my trading timeframe. However, it bears attention. So, I am interested to hear from...

    Is drinking allowed?

    I'll take that bet...I treat my drinking like my trading...businesslike and separate. Quality time is allotted to each. I don't believe Mr. Putin can make that distinction.

    Is drinking allowed?

    I'm a Ketel One and Belvedere Man myself...only after 5 and only at home. Great family and home (my office) so I never need a pub. Never during business hours.

    Big Slippage on ES

    OK. Fair enough. I thought your order was submitted at 3:58 like yesterday, assuming we are talking EST, but it sort of makes my following argument invalid anyway. At any rate, in the recent high volatility environment, a market order at two minutes before close of business is bound to get...

    Fully automated fast food restaurant opens in San Francisco

    Strikingly similar to the Automat my parents took me to in Manhattan as a child. More for the novelty than the quality of the food as I came from a large Italian family that took their cooking seriously. I'm sure the food is a notch above today, though. I do, however, see a shift in labor costs...

    CPU power required for discretionary trading?

    Most bare bones PC's are more than sufficient for retail trading. Unless you are running a high intensity HFT, stop worrying and continue to run your strategy. 5 minute timeframe is ideal for the retail trader, and does not require any high speed colo's or cpu's.

    competition

    Currency futures. Leverage without the spread. Am I out of bounds here?

    So, you're saying you don't have access to ANY currency futures across the pond?

    Which is the biggest threat to the USA?

    The threat is from within our liberal and contradictory government. The food stamp program is administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. They proudly report that "They distribute free meals and food stamps to over 46 million people on an annual basis." Meanwhile, the National Park...

    The horrors of losses

    Losses in this business should be treated as expenses as in any other business. Those who are petrified by losses in trading, should open a Subway. A successful trader experiences losses, and manages them like any other business expense. If you trade and have no drawdown, I would like to meet...

    Moment of truth phobia

    Help with Spam

    If you are speaking to me Mr. Sandman, Live Mail offered me just about all the functionality that Outlook did, even though I was hesitant to migrate at first. I cannot comment on RSS feeds, as I don't use that, but I see it is available. Yes, I can consolidate multiple E Mail accounts. Overall...
