    The Future Of America

    Here is a question that I would like to address to the US citizens here at ET. "Do you believe that the US will be a better place to live, enjoy and raise families in four years time, than it is now" There is no other intent in this question other than to solicit your opinions. regards f9

    POLL: Intraday traders, what % of your total profits is generated by a single market?

    Interesting comment TD. What did you develop your approach upon. ie ...The only thing that I know is intraday trading the ES ( leaving aside position Fx futures) If I know anything at all about day trading it all comes and only comes from ES observations. Were I to try say NQ, I would...

    I still have to know a daytrader who makes money in the long run...

    Quote from goldenarm: I beg to differ. Being factually right and making a profitable trade are two separate animals. It's all about timing and execution. Of course you need to be factually correct in order to make a profitable trade. The fact is, that the facts are revealed after...

    Cheap Products vs. High Wages... Americans Want BOTH!

    Agreed but if you have ever been in Taiwan or Korea and watched the school kids work then you wonder how the western kids are going to compete unless they pull their finger out. regards f9

    Cheap Products vs. High Wages... Americans Want BOTH!

    This is a very interesting thread, well interesting to me. Clearly, democracy is breaking down if indeed it ever worked particularly well in mixed societies. But then, nobody has a better answer since democracy socialises the cockups and makes a lot of people think that they are "having...

    Cheap Products vs. High Wages... Americans Want BOTH!

    Argentina is an incredibly rich country from gas, oil, minerals and la pampa that can feed more than 500 million people and yet the country has a population of only 40M. Give or take the odd times of military junta, the people have supported the Peronistas since 1946 ... all 58 squabbling...

    I still have to know a daytrader who makes money in the long run...

    SP, You bring up some good points and if trading has taught you to appreciate just who you are and what you have, then it has been a positive experience. People live in a world that has socialised responsibility in order to gain control. All of a sudden out of a moment of fear or greed (...

    I still have to know a daytrader who makes money in the long run...

    "I still have to know a daytrader who makes money in the long run..." Then the problem is you and your attitude. Look no further than yourself. I have pretty much retired from posting on ET with regard to trading because the trading threads by and large are moribund for one reason and...

    Why are people so secretive here?

    But what if the next trade is self-delusional because of the unawareness and paralysis of risk. It exists only in "the traders" mind. regards f9

    Why are people so secretive here?

    And that is the reason why so many people spend thousands of dollars and thousands of hours trying to work around a problem that they may or may not be aware of. All the time seeking anything that will enable them to trade profitably and consistently without having to look in the mirror...

    Why are people so secretive here?

    I have pretty much retired from posting on ET with regard to trading because the trading threads by and large are moribund for one reason and that is the notion of acceptable risk. Most ETers will proclaim that they know and understand risk while simultaneously discussing and defending...

    Pure Tick - Last Day for Trading Alerts

    Alex, lunch time ... I would not presume to anything concerning your business, I do not have sufficient interest for such a thing. However having read a couple of your latest posts, you have ably demonstrated more clearly than most, that you have absolutely no idea what so ever of...

    The Price Action Journal

    good morning, If AustinP and SmilingS are going to be generous enough to impart their knowledge about trading levels, then the readers of this thread are indeed lucky people and should do all they can to keep the thread clean. By all means trade on s&r alone, it's your call. But chuck in...

    Daytrading- Big Picture and Volume Analysis

    OK. Firstly, how much volume can you squeeze between the bid and ask on ES rth. Secondly, I have counted back similar volume bars on both Ensign and NT and they occupy the same time spans. Finally, the NT volume histo is stable but the bid-ask is woobly so I do not think we have been...

    Daytrading- Big Picture and Volume Analysis

    Interesting SorL I am not an NT user but I have started to look into it and CCVbar was the first thing that I tested Buy/Sell Volume... presumably it should be the sum of both volumes at the bid plus at the ask, but assumptions are the mother of all f..kups in this game. I wonder how NT...
