    It's Time! The B*a*r*r*o*n*s Game!

    Faber said nothing that entire issue- mumbled something about not buying CDS insurance on the default of US treasuries, because if they default, no one is going to be there to insure them... That was it for him...

    Watch out, world: Americans are saving again

    savings is probably not going up, rather spending is going down.... some manipulation of the data might make it look like Americans are saving.... I'm saying the entire economy is retracting... so the way of measuring it would change, and if they showed it were retracting - they'd realize people...

    Bond Bubble and Index-Linked Bonds

    Bernanke's recent passivity and comments about "making the economy better but we don't know when" is nothing more than a ploy to keep the Bond Market alive... While the sirens are singing you should plug your ears or you'll crash into those rocks.

    Best way to research this?

    Seems to probably be best to have a function that tracks every move greater than a certain value - say 1 stdev. IF Price Move is greater than or less than +- 1 stdev, Then add 1 to the counter. Else keep searching through the data. Amibroker does this fairly easy - almost a...

    Breaking News...Ponzi Scheme One Thousand Times Larger Than Madoff Scheme Uncovered!!

    Tick Speed Showdown! TickZoom vs the competition

    It says Tickzoom hasn't been released for beta testing. I've seen alot of these vapourware comments before. I wouldn't use Amibroker to auto-trade (because I don't have a short term strategy, nor can I program it to autotrade myself, but I know you can hire people - ablesys for one), but inspite...
