Hey: I am very familiar with this phenomena. As the population ages, people will be looking for smaller houses that are easier to keep up. Aging baby boomers will be looking for one story ranch style homes (no stairs please) with enough room for a care giver when they need one. There...

Hey Walther; I see you found a new alias. Only a matter of time before the mod comes around with his vacumn cleaner I will just say goodbye to you now. bye...:cool:

I'm 54 Of course this is just anecdotal and so it doesn't "mean" anything :D

There are quite a few posts on this subject already out there for you to review. If you use the search function at the top right hand side of the home page, you will find enough material for a short training manual. Many of these posts have charts attached to illustrate how this works...

There is no need of a new argument. My first reply was sufficient. You should try that type of "argument" the next time you have a losing trade. Try telling your broker that he is wrong. Although you hit the long you actually meant to be short...That should work. My reply had nothing to do...

"Can trading be taught? My answer is simply no" It would be nice if one day, some one was actually responsible for their own language. This was "the point" I responded to. I just copied it from your post. You typed it out. I assume you were thinking it, and then you typed it...

I am also interested in whether trading with a Mac is viable now that prices are coming down a bit.

This is called "denial of reality". It took me several years and a hell of a lot of effort, but eventually I did learn to trade, and to manage money (different skills I assure you). More than a decade later, the forty seven (47) shareholders who kept money at that fund were extremely glad...

You may be awarded an out based on estimated bid/offer at the time you placed your market order. It would help if you had a record of the bid/ask at the time you placed the order. I had a similar experience with Doubleclick options a few years ago and had to "remind" them of their...

I wonder if any of you have every been involved in professional sport of any kind. Baseball, basketball, football, hockey. If so, I would be interested in hearing how you did. Did you make it to the big show? If not, why? Was it someone else's fault. Did someone else fail to hit a major league...

This is one very overdone subject. It is always started by a trader who couldn't make it work. Always by a trader who has lost money, and after thinking about it for a while, he or she decides that ULTIMATELY, it is someone else's fault. Someone sold them a bill of goods. and now it is...

Whitster (and everyone) My experience is different. I know some great traders. Every one of them has the whole package. The best office equipment, the best charting package, the best contacts, a winner's attitude, great skills, all of it. Who knows if they have natural ability? It doesn't...

Unfortunately, your memory decieves you. and your interpretation although interesting, is one standard deviation away from the authors. From the book titled "If you meet the Buddha on the Road, Kill him!" by Sheldon Kopp "The Zen Master warns; If you meet Buddha on the road, kill him...

I only have a couple of minutes but I might take a stab at it Trading style is everything to do with your experience of trading It is time frame...Are you comfortable with short term trading like scalping for ticks, or do you like to sit back and watch the action with a minimum of pressure...

He's lying The universe is going to blow up I tell you. Everybody under your desks right now!!! Steve

They implode. Its like when matter and antimatter collide. I learned this watching an episode of "Star Trek" So I know its true. Please sell immediately before you destroy the known universe. Steve

Here is a chart of today's ER (basis 5 min candles) I notice price respecting several simple lines in the sand 1. DDF (Directional Day Finder from Dr. Clayburgh/Josh Lukeman) 2. R1 3. Previous consolidations (scan left on your own charts) Not a lot of opportunity for me today, but...

As far as my discovery, I have discovered that there is nothing to discover. Thats why..... "If you meet Buddha on the road, Kill him" Lin Chi Here Buddha, Here boy...time to go for a walk. Steve

Well good one guys: Great idea for a thread, but not much ability to "hold a conversation". I bet going to a bar with you guys is great fun. Anyway, before I retired I interviewed and hired 2 exceptional traders (women). One for fixed income and one for Bonds. Both were sharp and capable...

Yeah yeah thats fine.. Look it is the "attachment" to money that causes new traders to be unable to hold a position long enough to make money. Instead because they (and in the past tense "we") cannot let money out of their grasp, they get flushed out of losing trades quickly, before the...
