This is the ONLY reason the health-care bill passed. There was no amazing political finesse. The country was against it, the Dems were united in their stupefaction with the idea in spite of towering deficits and towering reality, and the GOP were in a near-historic minority

I read this thread twice. http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=2809714#post2809714 If you read it carefully, this is just well-worded spam to get people to come to this site and sign up.

It would be useful if ET would strengthen the Terms of Use/Service. There are gaping loopholes. The following behaviors are all highly correlated to commercial websites: 1) Sell service/product directly 2) carry advertisements/Adwords to make revenue from OTHER sites 2) gain traffic...

Artist - a person whose creative work shows sensitivity and imagination This is not art. It is not your creative work, it shows little sensitivity and leaves nothing to the imagination. An artist on the female form can also find beauty from age 1 to 100, whether obese or skinny, any race...

Yes, don't put a lot of money into a couple of positions...

the chart would be a lot more meanginful without the future bars on it. Everything looks interesting in hindsight.

It is not impossible, but far harder than most will grasp. Many of those claiming success cannot distinguish paper/sim trading from real money. Or that making money for 3 months means anything, etc. Someone published a thread recently - maybe a month ago? that said for a very long time...

win% is nearly irrelevant. But it makes something that newbies fasten on to. Expectancy/PF means something, but win% is a function of money management.

I doubt that "she" is a girl. But likely RCG's alter alias. Two people who spend all their energy on publishing girl pix? Imagine, a man going onto a mostly female-audience forum and constantly posting pictures of guys in briefs. Now, what would be your first thought about the poster...

Targeting the. We need to send about 1,000 cruise missiles down onto the Republican Guard main units, onto every major center of the conservative influence, etc. Kill off the right-wing leadership, and support the moderates. They still remember things like this (Neda, the young girl killed...

Still looking forward to the day that ET puts some kind of minimal verification process in place - charge $1 to a credit card, moneybookers, or paypal, and must be verified account. 70-aliase people like cold and some spammers would struggle to be able to register another user ID

Quote from sebastionay: If i can shoot for 4 times more reward than risk for instance that has absolutely no meaning. People like to "place trades where the reward to risk is at least 2" or something like that. But the real world is not nearly that clean. The market does not perform to...

one more thing, landlords trying to lure in traders to fill empty office space. Some are legit traders wanting to share space, but some are just trying to turn ET into a mini craigslist

But the sales pitch will follow if these "FREE" calls accidentally make a bit of money. Of course with one post, how can this not be sincere? So label this:

Admits he was wrong, but still smug in thinking that if HE were at the helm, things would be different. He was generally a smart man, but humility is still a bit of a problem (after all, he did NOT have sexual relations with that woman...) Much of the financial carnage of the past several...

also, with something like SpywareBlaster...

I agree thoroughly. Lescor made it clear that this was goIng to be a journal, but there is long rambles of discourse between others, many questIons FROM people trying to dig out free advice. As he said in the OP: … There is a lot of negativity, disbelief, and cynicism about trading...

you need to stop being focused on just getting something in the financial field, and whether school is worth it to get you there. Exchange floors are closing around the world. Even in financial institutions, traders are being displaced by algorithmic, automated trading. Financial instutions...

Nodoji makes a lot of fine posts, but I am under the impression that she may have had a working spouse while she was learning. Jumping out of a job in a bad economy and into trading is the opposite of good sense. By people who have been around trading, it is called "scared money." When you...
