The rest? What does that mean? And why does your custom timing indicator need to be supplemented by primitive stuff like SMAs?

There is no one-size-fits-all technical indicator. What works in trending markets will not work in choppy markets and vice versa.

+10 There's an awful lot of fuss here over whose exit strategy is better. :D

I just noticed this. THANK YOU, BARON !! :D :cool: One less way for the trolls to mess with this website. Things are looking up. :cool: While I'm here, let me put in a yes vote for the Thanks feature for individual posts that was part of the (temporary) changeover. That's one new...

In addition to the excellent comments above, I see far too many retail traders who don't treat trading seriously. They act like it should be fun, like a video game, instead of a business. They get bored and they post here to whine about it like children. "Yes I'm profitable (HA!) but why is...

LMAO! :D :D $4000 is 60% greater than $2500. Not 62.5% greater. Now we know why you can't trade. You can't even do arithmetic. :p

You're mixing up the guilty and the innocent alike. Most defense attorneys say they prefer not to know whether or not their client did it. I'm talking about the truly innocent client. He almost always takes the stand because he insists on doing so. It's the guilty ones who hesitate and...

+1 I'm not a discretionary trader but this bit of wisdom applies to all traders.

Last I checked, innocent people falsely accused of a crime, especially a serious crime like a wrongful death, take the stand in their defense over 99% of the time. Z-boy punked out when it came time to explain himself to his jury. Lucky for him his jury was clueless and racist. But he...

The most surprising thing here is that Clubber posted something where the criminal is White.

I guess that's preferable to Prometheus. :eek:

Sirius A or Sirius B? :D

I always suspected the NZD was overrated as a "major". Thanks for the info, Jason.

You've discovered a dirty little secret of TA: virtually every indicator formula is posted wrong somewhere. A widespread example is the MACD. When Gerald Appell first published it, he recommended two parameter sets: 8,17,9 and 12,25,9. Somewhere along the way 12,25,9 got typoed into 12,26,9...

Dying in general is one thing. Dying for some douchebag who is just using you for unpaid or even underpaid slave labor is another thing entirely. A few months back I saw some teabagger on TV argue that African Americans should be grateful that slavery gave their ancestors food and shelter...

What were you hoping to be discussed that wasn't already discussed in this thread?

Turkeys are idiots. They're not smart enough to figure out that if they aren't feeding themselves, they're just serving somebody else's agenda. I don't expect any better from turkeys. I do expect better from adult humans. Taleb is an idiot if he thinks his turkey analogy universally applies...

How the fuck would YOU know what industrial espionage is "restricted to"? If a company is kicking their competition's ass right now with some new product, the competition isn't concerned about next year. The want to know what is goin on right now. A freakin' six year old can figure that out...
