    Black Monday ??

    just joking around to pass the time... nothing personal..... however it was a funny comment/question; asking some other trader whether he is supporting your (losing?) position. I'll make a "call" since its the 'IN' thing to do..... I say DOW will "test" the 10200 level today! love, Ice...

    What do you do With Someone who just Doesn't

    about 4-5 months ago you said the same EXACT thing... that you always look at things from a contrarian viewpoint, always try to "think" what will happen (i.e. the market will turn). No? There is THE issue... so meditate for a week until you figure out why you do that. It is not an esoteric...

    What do you do With Someone who just Doesn't

    how many times a year do you post the same question? You have written the same thing about 3 times I can recall. What message does that give? bonne chance! ICE :cool: p.s. psych help isn't the answer... it's all within US! The answer(s), that is.

    Black Monday ??

    perhaps not... but you've heard of V-bottoms... non? We have seen them before susbsequent to parabolic down moves.. and always we ask "what will be the catalyst to move the markets (higher)"? Been that way for 18 years that I can recall. Things like the "Asian Crisis" etc. etc. etc. etc...

    Black Monday ??

    as typical the scoundrels are likely looking to bottom the market on INTC report-day as the maggots always seem to do. The Q is will they jump the gun, and start any rally prior thereto? ICe :cool: p..s what happened to the "signatures"

    Black Monday ??

    someone please tell me that IBM cronies were not short the market into expiry... I would bet any amount of money that is true. There is absolutely NO reason to schedule an earnings date and then unlike ANY OTHER prior release.. they decide to surprise the markets by releasing right before...

    Jon Najarian & InsideOptions.com Good or Bad?

    do you always look to others to "save" you from mistakes... Hmmmm! In trading and most of 'life' it seems we learn the most from making are own so-called mistakes. For example if some guy(s) say don't go long...... and turn out to be correct that time, then you view that as they "saved" you...

    so if you sold for a higher price how do you know that would not be too early? Curious: how others define selling "too" ealy". Do you go simply by price or whether you sold within "x %" lower than the intra-day high. Couple examples: sold some April EBAY calls today and missed by .45-50...

    Anyone from Vancouver, Canada?

    I love BC and Vancouver. was thinking of coming up over the summer to trade for 3-4 months. If anyone would be good enough to advise briefly what I need to arrange in order to rent a place, get a visa, get a cable/dsl account etc., it would be very much appreciated. I live in Chicago...

    Pictures of your trading stations

    I have 3 CRTs... samsung 19" - viewsonic 20-21" (had two 21" until last year) My second 21 inch (purchased in 1995) just died last week, so I'm buying another 21" CRT, only black this time; the cost will be about $1400 less also. :p will snap a photo to post. ICe :cool:

    Chicago ET Home

    great game last night against Denver.... sending a "if it ain't broke don't fix it" letter to John Paxson urging him not to pull a "krause" and get cute... trade away future All Stars or rookies of the year. Stay with the trend John; sometimes the best trade is doing NOTHING! :D If...
