    Moveon.org has got to be shut down!

    I used to listen to the Pacifica Foundation's radio station in LA, KPFK. They have KPFA in Berkeley and WBAI in New York. They have been spewing this kind of garbage since 1959 with little to no effect on anything or anybody. When krappy little marxist liberals with no real good argument to...

    Before you spend $1 on a system read this.

    Kudos!! I've never bought a system but that 3 item checklist looks very, very good. I print my own planner pages to coordinate tasks and one thing I print is a page called "transaction". In dealing with people it is often very, very good to have a list of things you want GOOD answers to...

    "the daytrader is dead" - AMTD CEO

    You are right about that. I saw a post on an email list a few years ago from a guy that owned a seat on the AMEX. He was talking about the exciting advances in TA, what with people experimenting with 165 day moving averages and new stuff like that. I had mistakenly assumed that all the big guys...

    IB and pattern daytrading rules

    I have gotten a variety of answers to this question in the past, the text on the IB site seems to say that all trading will be halted for 5 days but some emails I had with them seemed to indicate that only margin would be affected. With a lot of these brokers, (thinking of mytrack here) you...

    IB and pattern daytrading rules

    I have been in strategy development mode and doing very little trading for a few years. At this point I don't understand the pattern daytrading rules as it may apply to my situation. I have a margin account but I do not intend to use margin right away. I do not have $25,000 in the account...

    Psychology of success

    Your friend may be in a discovery mode that will benefit him in the long run. I went through a discovery period like that about 15 years ago. I learned that about 30% to 70% of the people around me were out of control little pieces of shit (OOCLPOS) most of the time. I learned how to become an...

    Psychology of success

    They may be feeling mixed emotions. They may be aware that your relationship to them is changing and they may wish that was not so. I am not there yet but it sure looks good. I have decided that if I hit the big time I am going to spread it around enough, maybe in the form of parties...

    The U.S. winked at Hussein's evil

    We armed Iraq against Iran and Israelis armed Iran against Iraq. Meanwhile both of them had to sell lots of oil to finance their end of the war. Seems like a win-win for the West to me. Seems like payback for the Iranian oil embargo as well. What the hell is your problem anhow?

    Can't install Google toolbar

    When I get to the "accept the terms" step installing Google toolbar I can't resize the window to see the "I accept" button. I tried changing the monitor settings in case that would make a difference, no dice. Anybody know what I can do in this situation??

    Which Mother Board is best?

    Ditto. If you were writing software what would you debug it on first? The industry standard? Yes. Other bugs may never be fixed. I had experience with a non-intel mobo and non-intel processor, some stuff did not run on it.

    Jacko Doo Doo

    Jackson has Johnny Cochran and all of a sudden he is a guy that was abused by the police and he sees God in children's faces. Their defense is to put the Justice system on trial, play the race card big time, and that implies riots, bad international press, etc. I hope that DA has a good...

    How many pirate software or other CPM? Scared?

    The Flip-A-Coin trading strategy and lessons learned from it

    Here's a thought: it is psychology you are dealing with here so why not fool yourself after entering every trade as follows: Enter the best way you know how but at the moment you are in it start pretenting you entered on a coin toss. That might help to shuck off all the baggage you described.
