Things are getting really really tense in Tehran. Now the common people are protesting in the street and clashing with the Basiji (Iran's answer to the Taliban's Ministry of Vice and Virtue's bullies). They streamed into the streets to commemorate the murder of two (a couple) political...

Thanks guys. It works now. Must have been a connection (ISP) issue of some kind. Getting back to the topic at hand. I did a similar research paper in my last year of bachelors. Similar in that both my paper and this one tackles 'stickiness'....something which simply should not exist...

Thanks. Much appreciated :) ...but I can't download it. Is it just me or is something wrong with the link?

lol!! We've known about this all along. There was a program called "Talking to Americans" where a comedian from CBC would go down and talk to Americans. He would invent the most whack stories about Canada or some other country and ask their opinions. They would always blurt out the funniest...

What system are you trading? post one (ONE!!) trade in the form of a graph, where and why you went in and exited, then we'll know what you've been doing. Otherwise this will all be complete waste of time by being an exercise in tautology.

He was a rebel. Gotta go with the hog.

tampa, as I wrote in my previous post, if the Comp H/L index is not mirroring (or bettering) the Comp itself, then that is telling us is that all the 'soldiers' are not participating in the charge upwards. The result is that those few stocks that are leading the charge become stretched and...

The H/L index is one of the indicators I follow. I don't think it is wise to rely on any one indicator and never for a 'signal'. I prefer to throw a lot of stuff into a pot and stir it up to see what brews. The amalgam is always more truthful than any one perspective of the market...and...

Chas, Have you looked into pro (not retail) short interest? It is a very interesting indicator. Ofcourse, the point is that when they have to carry a short inventory, it is because no one else is ponying up to sell ... which means a toppy short term market. And vice versa. Also, you...

Here is the HL:

I was looking at the Nasdaq Cumulative High/Low chart and compared its recent action to the Composite and saw a bad divergence. While the Comp rallied a second time in the middle of this month to reach the heights reached at the beginning of this month...the HL readings did not. Rather they...

Am I missing something? :confused: How is this 'arbitrage'?

This is a very scary possibility....:eek: I have to remind myself that I am a meliorist.

That's true. I brought up this point originally many months ago by pointing out that around 30-40% of his 'performance' in his earlier years was due to the credit interest that his $500,000 account was earning and not as a result of gains from trading.

Things are heating up again in Caracas. The people and the military have been protesting non-stop (or almost) for several months. Recently Hugo Chavez took over the Caracas police to crack down on the protesters...

There was no 'debate'. Using his own numbers, it was shown (by Tony Oz) that he had manipulated the numbers. I haven't been to his site lately but I'll check it out.

Germany is in a slump. Its official. So what does the government propose? http://www.etaiwannews.com/Business/2002/11/19/1037672933.htm

Maybe I'm grasping at straws but some part of the up move in oil today may be atributable to news out of Iran. The latest word from Khamenei (the Supreme Leader - although unelected, he controls almost everything) is that he has ordered the review of the death sentence of Aghajari. This is...
