    The Surf Report

    What most of you don't understand is that surfer is not a typical trader, he is a rarer breed, a true speculator. I empathize with him as I too do not trade in the sense that most here on ET do taking crumbs here and there eking out a living. In speculation (usually not for an income but to add...

    This isn't alt.stupid.paranoid.dreams on usenet. Why post garbage like that here? It won't change a thing, no one will trade off your feeling (you and Chertoff should get together and share your feelings LOL) Apart from the fact that none of us want another terrorist event you had better hope...

    The Surf Report

    If you are looking to cash in on a binary event with uncertain timing you HAVE to utlize some form of hedge or you will get killed. If you think that a severe correction is in the cards the smart play would be to use OTM options with volatility this low. Then hedge against days like this using...

    help me lose some bloody pounds

    Like it or not it all starts with portion control. It is easy and works fast and will kick start you in to a more sustainable way of life along the lines of what you suggested above. Other than that I agree with everything you wrote and more smaller meals is better than 5 but realistically not...

    help me lose some bloody pounds

    If you want something very simple and mindless just eat 5 meals a day. Each meal must be no larger than what fits under your open hand on a plate (ie you must be able to cover the food on the plate with your hand or the equivalent, obviously without piling it on, it can be no thicker than your...

    Will Pay $1000 Per Hour For GOOD Mentor

    Paying any amount per hour isn't going to change the fact that you are a lazy undisciplined fool and will lose money even with the best advice. The adage that a trader needs to work on himself as much as on the business of trading was never truer in your case though mymini gives you a good run...

    surprise BOJ rate hike

    On the contrary it is a huge deal and when it starts to unwind it will be felt. My point was just that it isn't under threat from any small surprise hike from the BOJ. Given that Japan is still desperately trying to grow its way out of its debt (107% of GDP) it is unlikely that the BOJ raising...

    Healthy Burgers that tastes great

    Buffalo are the way to go, delicious and a healthy alternative. I also like Dr Preagers kosher california veggie burger, blows away all those other veggie burgers. I buy it at costco good value too, a dozen for about $15. Substantial things with large veggie bits in them. I thrown them on the...

    surprise BOJ rate hike

    So in your dream did they raise by 3%? Thats about what it would take to hit the carry trade. Even if they surprised AND raised by a half (highly unlikely)it wouldn't even cause much of a ripple.

    Credit rating

    Looks like someone wants to force the rating agencies to come clean and change their ratings on all this sub prim and alt A paper. That in turn forces repricing of the paper. Things could get interesting. Loaded with EEM puts and looking for a good pay off fairly soon now...

    Everest The Highest trade of the World

    Prolly have better luck with one of thr brokerages, something like "Our platform is so good that you can tade with us from anywhere, even the summit of Mt Everest". Or one of those inspirational type ads "People who have the forsight, skill, and intelligence to successfully plan and execute a...

    Bush pardons Libby, panders to the hard right...

    Stupid move, he should have pardoned him. He is going to take huge heat anyway might as well take the heat for the pardon instead of just commuting the prison term.

    The Surf Report

    Surf, I am of the same view but I use EEM puts (I think that is where the greatest opportunity for gains resides in a decline) and hedge using the futures (YM, ES, NW depending) at key levels. I don't catch every dip by any means but take 10-20 ES here and there or 100 on the YM here and there...
