    Personal Blog on Trading

    You see, part of the impending problem you face has to do with the fact that you did not answer the moderator's question. We often see "new" posters who claim to be using ET for their private journals or commentary, when in fact they are interested in promoting a commercial venture...

    Full time traders --please respond

    In my opinion, life is too short to drink cheap vodka. Of course I have to admit I dont drink much but thats the way I feel about it. If you're gonna do something, do it right, and since we are often in a place where we feel like we are treading water, you need to have a sense of humor...

    NLP...care to share?

    Hey: I wonder if anyone remembers the movie "Amadeus". I kind of liked it. The basic premise was that Mozart was an irritating twit possessed of tremendous natural ability characteristic of a musical genius. A contemporary of his, Salieri, was a man of more moderate skills, talented...

    This is really for everyone: I am not interested in defending this point anymore. I think it is beating a dead horse. Selling someone else's material is wrong. Period Selling your own material is fine. Period Thats where I stand. Thats where I draw the line. I wont be responding...

    You are quoting me but not reading the quote. Maybe you just dont understand english. Again, Linda sells material that is HERS TO SELL. THAT is the difference. I wish that I could explain it in such a way that you could get it, but I fear that you just dont have a clue. If anyone...

    No, I simply believe that she offers good value to her customers, and unlike your friend Samson, the material she offers is HER OWN. What do you offer the rest of us, aside from weak rhetoric? You seem to be agitated. I hope you are not having an attack. I really would not want to be...

    Full time traders --please respond

    Nothing wrong with that Jackie. I get up early (5am) and I go for a quick flight in my Bell Jet Ranger, loaded with 6 half filled water balloons. Depending on my score I look for long or short trades early in the day. If for instance I score a direct hit on one or more of my neighbors, their...

    I have not destroyed any threads. Again you are incorrect. Here is YOUR quote "It's no wonder 95% of the traders in here fail at this business, it's because they are STUPID. " I am not calling people stupid, YOU ARE..According to YOU 95% of the people here are STUPID, not people who...

    Poll: Which is your favorite activity?

    I fly helicopters. I particularly like hovering over my neighbor's home at low altitude, dropping water balloons on them while they are barbequeing :D I got my neighbor's wife real good last month. My new hobby requires skill, coordination and focus. I am going to start aiming for the...

    Well Geez: I would have to say I am surprised. Thanks for the kind words folks. Ozzy, you seem to be the originator of this thread. That comment is a brave one for you (or anyone) to make. We all have choices to make and each one is an opportunity to show the rest of the world who we...

    Personal Blog on Trading

    How much would that cost? I am thinking of becoming the "howard stern" of trading and this might be a way to get started cheaply. Also I need to contact young ladies willing to trade naked in front of my cameras (pay per view) and in return I will finance their breast implant surgery. They...

    How would you test for trendiness?

    What keeps you from using your own "intuition" to figure it out? What does the term "volatility" mean to you? Markets can be quiet with little movement or volatile with significant swings in both directions. Most markets display both kinds of price action. How much more "intuitive" do...

    some people think trading is like a warrior's quest

    You know, I will bet you don't even wear pajamas. I will bet you are one of those trading nudists :D I hear there's a colony of those folks out here in the LA area. Nothing but a smile on your face as you hit the bid Good luck, Merry Christmas and for everyone's sake Keep the...

    some people think trading is like a warrior's quest

    Too bad about your english comprehension problem. This is about my warrior's quest to get 2 points. The trade shown is for the Russell. Thats an index futures contract. Bonds are a different contract professor. Got you pretty pissed there, didnt we. Take a moment to breath "player". You...

    some people think trading is like a warrior's quest

    Here is today's "Bond Bounce" on the ES chart. Dont take it personally Cool. Actually I agree with you. Based on your lack of knowledge of the market, your risk/reward profile trading futures has got to be pretty poor. If on the other hand you want to pay some dues, do some studying and...

    some people think trading is like a warrior's quest

    Hey Thunderdog: This one's for you. The attached chart is an example of today's "Bond Bounce". This is one example. Doesn't always happen. Setup requires the right combo of bond price movement and previous price move in the indexes (either ES or Russell). I am posting this because the...

    Wrong Fair Value Premiums

    Okay, I think you may be missing the point. Even if you calc Fair Value yourself, you will still see programs hitting above and below your figure. This is because the big brokerage houses all have different cost of money. This figures into WHERE they choose to activate program trading during the...

    some people think trading is like a warrior's quest

    I walk on a treadmill and wait to hear an "audible alert" from my setup. I prefer to watch the screen, so I only walk on the treadmill for about 10-20 minutes at a time. Works like a charm and keeps me from getting in (or out) of positions too soon. Good luck Steve

    Wrong Fair Value Premiums

    Programtrading is the best site for fair value calcs. Program levels will vary because the cost of money varies for each firm that uses it as a trigger. So if you watch carefully you will see programs trigger above and below fair value figures. Good luck Steve Please note: I am talking...

    some people think trading is like a warrior's quest

    Hey Thunderdog: Just a quick comment about this subject. I have learned recently that some folks dont like to think. It hurts their head. They like to speak. Problem is they don't really have that much to say, OR they are not knowledgeable about a subject but wish they were, and so what you...
