Mark, Well said....That pretty much wraps this thread up. Like most life support trading systems, volume is very much a case of using it if you cannot live without it. But be aware that every second spent considering life support systems is a second spent at the expense of reading...

Yes I completely agree with you gnome. Having passed off rubbish paper to foreign banks as AAA the only solution now is to continue diluting as you say and spread the problem to every corner of the globe before it finds some sort of equilibrium. But firstly the banks need topping up in order...

Is Paulson talking about the Banks or the US tax payer. Two different and opposing groups entirely. regards f9

Donkee, Wow what an outpouring of emotion. Where did that all come from. You missed the point completely. regards f9

DonKee, I am thrilled that you have convinced the market to restrict your losses to repetitive small amounts. My experience of trading ES is quite different ... exactly the opposite to be precise. By this I mean that my entries give me the least likely drawdown and the most likely...

Up to point. Eventually the savings stop and the lowest ex factory price becomes the norm. ie china subs the work to vietnam who sub it to mongolia who manage a factory of robots. And if the USD crossrate does not recover, then your savings fly out the door. regards f9

They are only lying Arnie, nothing new about that. What they are really saying is that the job of reloading the banks balance sheets remains a priority until all the bad paper, YET to be presented is washed off the books and into the arms of the US tax payer who is already trying to come to...

Another guy who has just discovered the wheel. I quiver with anticipation at your seventeenth posting. It is going to need to be an earth shaker to top this one. regards f9
