Going to watch the movie "Conviction" with Hilary Swank. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1244754/ BBL

Here's Mark Douglas' system. I don't entirely understand it, but I do get the part that you have to "open a position" and then there's the "zone" which I'm sure is the "trading in the zone" part. Hmmm. :p

I was doing some other work just now and looked back at my charts and saw that CL had spiked up to above 105 and then there was a big red candle down and I was startled and thought, "Wow! What happened?!" Then I remembered I no longer had the 5 min chart up, but earlier had looked at a weekly...

CSW = Coulda, Shoulda, Woulda = after the fact = "easy money". :D Did you see that Picaso exposed your system earlier? Of course it's one thing to see it, but another thing entirely to know how to operate it. :p http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/attachment.php?s=&postid=3122815

A bit discouraged as I couldn't trade in the middle of the day and it looks like I missed some relatively easy money. :) Oh, well. There are more opportunities coming right up. The 97.20-30 or so longs were so obvious as was the 99.20-40 short earlier.

I feel the company and government officials involved in these situations are frequently unwilling to tell it like it is and take appropriate measures in dealing with the actual situation as it really is, not some sanitized version they've cooked up. There was a nuclear expert on the radio today...

I think the key to effective swing trading is obviously being on the right side of the trade to begin with in a clearly defined trend. And if there isn't a clearly defined trend I would just as soon day trade. Or you can obviously do both even in a well defined trend as nothing goes straight up...

Good trade.

The market was warned, "Beware the ides of March."

Great picture. But you may get yourself in trouble for revealing that. I believe it was meant to be kept secret. :)

Could be. Another thing for the poor Japanese people is that it's really cold over there still and their power is out. They must be freezing cold.

Good Morning Just looking at the CAC 40 which is down 4% and the DAX is down 5%. It will be an interesting day. Hope things turn better for the people of Japan. Hard to get a read on what's driving CL. I guess they're thinking that with everything shut down in Japan and the fact it...

One last thought in regard to the nuclear situation in Japan. One of the best quotes I've ever read in regard to energy creation or anything else for that matter was from Amory Lovins. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amory_Lovins "To use nuclear power to generate electricity is like using a...

Off to bed. Have a good night.

Quote from RichardRimes: If we are down 50 ES in the AM I'll start building a fall out shelter! I was laughing at this earlier as I missed what was up in Japan as far as the market goes. Was watching the Lakers/Magic game. But actually ES is almost down 50 points. It was down 41. Wow. The...

:D :D :D

Just wanted to share this quote from darkhorse from the "Books that have significantly influenced your trading perspective" thread. This is the thread, not the quote, which isn't on the thread itself. http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=212857 It's from this link, and...

Some thoughts. I like the idea of not overtrading. And as riskaddict pointed out the other day, sometimes when we just let things go and don't mess with them we get the best results. And I'm sure we've all observed this. I know when I've done SIM trades and even when it moved slightly...

You're not satisfied with + .10? You seem to have missed all that I've been trying to teach you. We'll have to go over that again. Hope you're not turning into one of these "breakout freaks". :p :D :p :D ADD Or if you would like to focus on "breakouts" we can supply you with the BCE Early...

You know Notes123, one of the things that separates this thread apart from other threads on ET, and even more so from threads on the Yahoo message boards and other forums, is that people treat one another with respect and don't engage in personal attacks or put downs. Everyone here, except a few...
