Michael:
If you really do want to know more about true investors (as opposed to speculators) like Buffett, you should take the time to read Jason Zweigs new book, which is a revised edition of Benjamin Graham's "Intelligent Investor".
You may or may not know that Buffett was a student of...
The "student" is a fruitcake. He shouldn't even be here.
I heard the recording of the arrest. In my opinion, the guy was looking for a reason get into it with the cops. He was (and undoubtedly still is) an irritating little bastard with no respect for authority. All he had to do to prevent...
Couple of things;
First, your concept of trolling needs updating..There are plenty of great examples on ET. This isn't one of them.
Second, I believe I over-reacted to Clay's post. My Dad knew Dr. Friedmann and thought highly of him. I think highly of him as well and I believe at the end...
OK, I'll bite.
Perhaps we could start by having you tell us about YOUR Nobel Prize in Economics.
In what year did you win?
Also could you tell us where you obtained your doctorate in Economics?
Perhaps you have a Master's degree.
or maybe you were a child prodigy and stopped with...
Former Lobbyist Jack Abramoff entered a Maryland Prison today to start his 6 year stay..He was welcomed by 2 big black trustees with tatoos saying "yo mama aint gonna save you now".
Just joking. Actually he is at one of the "country club prisons" just a holler away from the Potomac river. I...
We used to be neighbors years ago. I received so much junk mail from the guy I referred it to my attorney. In my opinion the guy is a scam artist (and a jerk). I am trying to be generous.

Lunch is lunch..I eat lunch at 12:00. Some go to lunch at 12:30 and others go earlier or later. The idea that one should stay out of a trade because people are eating lunch depends on whether you trade intraday or swing. Its common sense (a commodity that is apparently hard to come by here at...
Well Trader;
Well for my money, nothing beats a shot of 20 year old Glenmorangie. I don't know if I would be able to concentrate on the screen after that. Who knows, might help me to be a little more patient :)
Good luck in the markets tomorrow

Harsh, no I don't think so.
"Harsh" is if I were to tell you to go fuck yourself.... That is harsh..I would never do that.
Good natured kidding is different. Stick around a bit and you will see what I mean.
Thanks for your comment.

Hello Spaceman;
Here on earth, "lunch hour" is from 12:00 noon to about 1:00 PM local time.
Since the NYSE is located in New York City, lunch hour is from 12:00 noon to about 1:00 PM Eastern Standard Time.
When do they eat lunch on your planet?
Do you come in peace or are you part of...
Based on what I remember, you were a net loser because you didn't have an edge and you couldn't execute in a disciplined manner.
Did you do the testing necessary to find an edge? If so, you didn't mention it, and yet it is vital to your success.
Have you found a way to control your...
Yes
Floor traders at each exchange give every stock a numeric grade based on how interesting the company is. At the end of the day the stock that has the most votes recieves 2 extra points. Proprietary Traders who are long that stock receive the extra points. All they have to do is contact...
What happened to our little friend?
His last "post" was :mad:
Do you think we hurt his feelings?
Little does he know that the market has a way of "hurting his feelings" even more, unless he adopts a more realistic attitude.
Oh well. Life goes on.
Mean old Steve
What do you think Maurice, shall we increase ze basis?
Bien Sur mon Ami, pick a number and hurry it is almost lunch time.
But why should we increase it now?
Silly man, because we are French, we can increase ze basis anytime we wish...
I think it's unfortunate, however I am pretty sure some folks out there will decide to at least browse the index over at Amazon (if it is available). As I have said before, I like the book, I think it offers good value to retail daytraders, especially here where folks don't seem to know much...
