What makes you so sure that I wasn't getting a rise from you in return? Correct you are. Knowing and applying are two different animals. Obviously it's the applying part I'm having trouble with. You may want to re-think this statement as to how it applies to me. Do you think I can't...

This is my goal. Thanks man.

Hey Banjo-- I've gone over your statement above many times with myself. It's a hard one to figure out but I can tell you with confidence that I have no idea what my sub-conscious mind thinking. LOL Amen Brother! Everytime I turn over a rock, I find even more lurking beneath it. [sigh]...

You really think I don't already know everything of what you just said? In your eagerness to spout your tantrums of a wanna be monk, you failed to read what I actually said in that post and in this thread. You intentionally left out the following sentence, which you conveniently ignored, of that...

Summer before last when I kept my journal. A few months of uninterrupted trading then back to work. Sporadic trades in between. Uninterrupted now for the past three months. I hate doing it this way, but I have no choice. I'm older (38) with a family to support.

nononsense-- I'm not into backtesting, paper-trading, simulator training, or gambling. I am into trading. :)

Easy-- I have no gumption about about taking on 5 ES mini's with a $5000.00 acct. I need to clarify this a bit. Whether he knows it or not, Trendfader (Mike) planted a seed in my head about not being able to be successful in daytrading the mini's. Also the legions who say that you need a...

Lobster-- I think what's eating me more than anything is "working" at this; putting in tremendous time and effort and not geting "paid" for my dedication. Even though knowing full well trading doesn't pay in the traditional sense.

It's funny you should mention this. During my last see-saw ride, I incorporated this strategy exclusively. And got killed. I can't begin to tell you how many points I've let go over the past coupla weeks while waiting for my position to mature. I'm beginning to think the opposite is true.

Of course I alter my strategy. Just increasing size could be could be defined as such. I don't want to be trading 1 contract for the rest of my life. Now do I change my method of trading. Probably, how else do you find out what works. I don't hope for anything. I expect improvement over time.

Hmmm. No wisecracks even. Back to the top.

It's amazing to me to me that EVERY time I try and push my trading, i.e. aggressive vs. conservative, I get whacked...hard. Build the acct. up, get whacked, build it up, get whacked. Jeez. I'm seriously consistent but can't get over the hump. One would think that the natural progression of...

Wow. Thanks axeman for the tutorial, I knew "fragments" of the inner workings but you put it all together. Chaos-- I try to stay away from too much shareware. pspr-- I know, I'm a little late to the party. Ever since I changed my hard drive out a little while back, I've had these burning...

Thanks guys. So eventually, do all these fragments pile up on the hard drive? Does that do anything to performance, say...like a cassette tape eventually gets crummy after you record over it a few times? Apples and oranges, I know. But it's the only analogy I could think of.

I thought that smell was coming from my sweaty nuts after being on the wrong side of the mini-spike today.

What happens to a bug that's been quarantined by your antivirus system and then you delete what's quarantined? I mean what comes in, doesn't get rejected back out again over the net...So where does it all go? Does it get broken down into unusable harmless fragments on your hard drive? If that's...

Sorry guys, maybe I'm overlooking something but I still can't grasp the concept of a noisy computer. I've got two of the most generic 'puters out there (Dell/Compac) and unless my ass is under the desk chasing the donut I dropped, I don't here a peep from these machines. Even at 3:30 am when...

I've seen various posts about computer noise, and it seems to be a legitimate issue... But, c'mon, seriously...How loud can a computer get? Enough to actually bitch about it? Evidently so. Are you guys working in sound proof rooms where you can here a fart from a knats ass? Just trying to...

Care to share the energy drink you found, with us? (#1)

Hypo-- I liked you on on SI. I like you better now. Oh Ohhh, does this make me one of those orgerer of adorations? Are you related to Subliminal (Mr.)?
