    Creating a backup usb install for Windows 10 upgrade

    Recently I have been unable to shut down the computer. When I click shutdown, computer says shutting down but actually never does. I have seen other people having this error, so this is how I was able to get my computer to shut down without reverting back to Windows 7 or holding down on the...

    What is Technical Analysis? Why does it work?

    I guess I am not be precise. Actually you can have a low win% and still have a profitable system if your reward is greater than your risk. You can also sell calls to generate profits if you know what you are doing. There are many systems. However, what I am saying if you think prices are...

    What is Technical Analysis? Why does it work?

    What you are referring to is trade management where we are not even at that stage yet since we are still at the stage that of providing proof of predictability and being right. For those that are able to get beyond that 1st stage, then and only then should they move over to the thread section...

    What is Technical Analysis? Why does it work?

    This is an advanced strategy with a chart included on how professionals are using a simple H & S pattern to trade real money. What I think is useful in this article is how they are using a hedge like strategy to make money on both longer term possible upside while also profiting on a short term...

    What is Technical Analysis? Why does it work?

    No, I was quoting the Matrix changing the words a little. I believe during the times the market is predictable, you can take a trade. If the market was completely random, there would not be so many systems that work over the long term. For example, Buffet buys value stocks many that pay...

    What is Technical Analysis? Why does it work?

    Many people make the mistake thinking the market is not random while many people make the mistake that the market is random. Do not try to bend the market, that's impossible. Instead try to realize the truth, there is no market. Then you will see, it is you that must bend.

    What is Technical Analysis? Why does it work?

    The main problem with people who believe that the stock market is random is that long term term chart can NOT be replicated by for example a random coin toss. Or one can even look at the series "Billions" where the main actor says he was shorting as the planes were crashing into the towers of...

    What is Technical Analysis? Why does it work?

    Because many days the market is not random. For example, a report on unemployment comes out say better than expected, so it creates a fundamental action and prices rise. Then using TA, one can pick a setup that has a statistical probability of greater than 55% to work. Also, one can use TA to...

    "Follow this thread"

    From using text analysis it looks like NoVooDoo and marketsurfer are the same poster. You can also see how he never quotes himself when replying. Also, he has been known to make new alias after being banned and then attacks TA since his own system sucks by starting more anti TA threads in TA...

    How do you avoid choppy markets?

    Let's assume that no report is coming out anytime soon. FA previously would have createsd a wave that is shown in TA or PA (For example, early in the day the FED says it will not raise interest rates any time soon which causes an upward trend in prices). When you see price obeying the TA that...

    How do you avoid choppy markets?

    As far as know in the 1st book I read, he says the 1 min chart is noise. Also, it would be more useful to post a chart when you are discussing Wed's moves to highlight what you are talking about. ES has fake out moves, so the best thing to do is not for example trade near the high of the day...

    How do you avoid choppy markets?

    As Dr Brooks mentioned, you should not trade a barb wire formation. Also, 1 min charts are just noise, so if you keep getting chopped in a lower time frame as some posters noted, you need to be trading on a higher time frame. Now what I am about to talk about is how to manage a bad trade...

    How would you analyze this chart?

    I agree. Only keep indicators that predict in advance where price is going to move. Also, never keep duplicate indicators that both show the exact same thing. I will give an example, my indicator says price is going down, I see price is going down. We then come to a place where if price...

    Well, it suddenly started to work so I don't need to order those things from Amazon. I started the laptop in battery mode. I wanted to troubleshoot the bluetooth problem and went to device manager to see if the bluetooth drivers were there. After clicking on them, it started to work. I was...

    Creating a backup usb install for Windows 10 upgrade

    After last patch update that was applied on 3/4/2016, both internal wireless and bluetooth stopped working for one of my dell laptop computers. In device manager, it says driver is working. Intel wireless centrio 6300 does not have a specific Windows 10 driver. I tried both the previous Dell...

    Creating a backup usb install for Windows 10 upgrade

    There have been driver issues with the older wireless network adapters which may cause the computer to disconnect from the wireless router. I would suggest going to the manufacture website and download the 64 bit Windows 10 driver from them. If you have problems installing it, you may need to...

    The following may also help with wifi problems after upgrading to Windows 10. Note that if you have set a static ip address for your computer, you will need to either go back to an automatic ip and/or then reset it to a static ip address. I have gone back to automatic after applying these...

    Creating a backup usb install for Windows 10 upgrade

    On one of my laptops, the start button was not working for a user. I was able to fix this by deleting the account and files and recreating the account. If you have a similar problem, you may want to also back up all of the user data to google drive or a usb thumb drive 1st. I would always...
