    Profiting Daily on the ES

    So. You have a sufficient account to trade two contracts now. In 62 days you can trade 4 more. With those six you can trade 14 more at the end of the next 62 days. Und so weiter. And you need an angel? Anyone who responds to you and buys it deserves what he gets.

    Teaching the Wife to Trade

    Brilliant! But I can't risk putting my primary system in anyone else's hands. It is transparently simple. So I made it transparently simple for wife-for-life. See the attached. It has a "get ready to go" light and a "go" light backed up by audibles. I could display it on a small cell phone...

    Teaching the Wife to Trade

    Wait. Don't tell me. I'll guess that you are a discretionary trader. In clear contradistinction to a rigorous system trader.

    I think her thought pattern is akin to the losers are my deliberate fault and the winners are pure shit luck.

    Are you thinking something like, "Baby, you only wear one out of every five pairs of shoes you buy."

    Teaching the Wife to Trade

    Casino is exactly the analogy I used. She loves to play the slots. "Trading is a busted slot that pays off," I said.

    Teaching the Wife to Trade

    I am well past the age at which death is no longer optional. I wasted ten years of my waning life seeking profitable index futures trading systems. Who knew it would take that long and cost so much? My losses would have fed a family of four in the Third World for a century. Anyway, my wife is...

    Would you be so kind as to identify for us your average daily net profit in dollars per ES contract for those 62 days? I would like to run some numbers. Thanks.

    Exact Science

    Bear in mind that one expects the scientific method of cyclically observing, measuring, hypothesizing and testing to converge on a viable compact stationary theory. Trading doesn't always cooperate.

    Who Am I Now Friends With? Part II

    Bond funds are up 4% on the year. One hundred percent or more is a reasonable goal for a futures trader.

    Who Am I Now Friends With? Part II

    A further message from the rhinoceros: the psycho, the sex maniac, both illiterati, and the four idliots could all be the same person using different aliases. I myself have twenty, which I use as the mood or involuntary internal personality switches dictate. Actually, you got relatively kind...

    Who Am I Now Friends With?

    I was merely agreeing with Thunderdog's virtual remark that Sallie can't read and therefore leapt to an incorrect cornclusion. That happens a lot in trading. Sallie is in London, I believe, but English may not be his native, and charts ARE in English.

    Who Am I Now Friends With?

    Welcome to the zoo, IT! I am 65+, daytrade every day, and thank my good fortune that I have no trading friends. As the Sutra advises for attaining wisdom, "Fare lonely as the rhinoceros." You will do a whole lot better solo than listening to most of the fucksticks here.

    Price Action Traders

    You have found my fetish. I am so bad that I put a one tick threshold on doubles just in case there is a data error. Of course I test them. They still rarely work. And now, dearest Gab and Doj, this morning I started a record sheet labelled "decolessdays." Starting now. I need to recover my...

    Price Action Traders

    I make all my comedic charts look that way to enhance their credibility. Nobody wants to buy a chart study that promises to hurt their eyes or their head.

    Price Action Traders

    Thanks for the clarification. Glad that works for you in CL. It sure doesn't work in NQ. Counter-trend trading should be listed in the DSM-IV as an incurable neurosis. But I WILL try the "Weeeeeee!" thing. Probably beats cursing.
