    HFT good or bad for day traders?

    I know you are asking daytraders, but as a swing/position trader I think it is great. It lowers spreads and increases volume. From any perspective but a daytraders I think it is a good thing. And daytraders aren't exactly a favored political group. :)

    Matcha's Dow E-mini Journal

    You remind me of myself back when I was obsessed with trying to find the right combo of indicators, multiple time frames, and techniques to solve every little market move. Give it up, the markets don't work that way. A few of the long time respected guys on here have been kind of enough to...

    broke/ unemployed and out of options so i signed up for the military.

    You guys are clueless if you really think the military is a last resort job. I know many people here that quit various desirable careers to be medics. Life isn't all about maxing your hourly rate. Been there done that for 7 years. I'd rather have a sgt as my boss instead of a computer...

    broke/ unemployed and out of options so i signed up for the military.

    Carpal tunnel, back problems, vision problems...all so I can play a stupid card game all day. Or I can be a soldier, and a medic. And all the harsh treatment changes you in a good way. Not all unpleasant things are bad things. 7 years of working for nothing but money wasn't doing much for...

    broke/ unemployed and out of options so i signed up for the military.

    He hasn't signed up yet. It's obvious by the way he talks. I made 6 figures for 7 years at online poker and am now 9 months into the army, just graduated combat medic school. I joined because I was sick of doing a meaningless job for nothing but money. I plan on doing my 4 years and getting...

    Fake recovery due to trillions being printed; real test is job growth

    I think it is clearly just a matter of time till the gov either takes over some major banks or starts their own, and gets the money flowing to the public again.

    Ninja charts inadequacy

    I can't believe anyone would call NT horrific! It is a wonderful free program, that is much more powerful than any pay ones I have used. It is counterintuitive at first, but if you take the time to learn it can do nearly anything. Quit being babies and learn to use it!

    Ninja charts inadequacy

    I like it much better than other programs I have paid to use in the past. Free is nice. I have yet to use a program that doesn't have at several annoying glitches.

    Would you ever trade a high probability, high risk method?

    All that matters is the positive expectancy. Then structure your risk so that you can survive a losing streak comfortably. Beyond that it is just personal preference on whether you want to trade this sort of payoff, or go for a 2:1 + RR ratio with lower win%. I would take whichever gave me...

    What oscillator(s) do you recommend for scalping in day trading?

    Well my personal style for scalping is to look for stocks that are behaving abnormally, specifically high volatility. I use this scan to find stocks that are going wild, and then i look for my scalping setup.

    What's your target for the bear rally?

    What's your target for the bear rally?

    10300 is in the neighborhood of a 66% retrace, and i really think people will get just excited enough to push over 10k. I would be suprised if it does a shallower pullback after such a steep move. Speculation of course, and I am only trading intraday anyways.

    What's your target for the bear rally?

    10300 dow, just enough over 10k to get all the suckers long again.

    What oscillator(s) do you recommend for scalping in day trading?

    I use RSI a lot for overbought/oversold conditions. All oscillators will work pretty much the same IMO, just pick one if you need one. PS here is an awesome scan for finding stocks in play...

    Learning SCT through automation..

    Sweet this thread should be fun. Good luck automating crazy talk. The more I learn about the markets the more ridiculous this "method" looks. 90% of the market volume is due to arbing and institutional long term orders, and Hershey is gonna beat the market by drawing channels around 3 5...

    Ninja Trader vs Multicharts

    I use ninja and really like it. I am not a programmer but so far whenever i have wanted something custom, I have just googled it and found that someone else has already made it. The new release is a month or 3, and is going to support spread charting. YAY!
