    How do you trade Natural Gas?

    A few suggestions for you. I would focus on trading natural gas spreads (futures spreads), not the outright. Two, forget about trend lines, learn more about the fundamentals of natural gas and volatility. Natural Gas is highly influenced by weather demand and ignoring that is playing with...

    This move in the Peso has been one of the smoothest rides I've seen in a while. No potholes on that street.

    The ACD Method

    Same in Euro. I think 1.10 is in the cards for the Euro and possibly 1.15. Been long from the monthly A down.

    New Documentary on Bill Ackman

    Agreed. Let's use another example. I go out and buy toilet paper at whole sale from HLF. I sell it to you for $5. It's perfectly normal toilet paper. I get a .50 commission from the sale. You got what you wanted and I got a commish. That is what MLM is. I think where you are going astray...

    New Documentary on Bill Ackman

    Sle, I'm the last guy that is going to defend MLM in general, but there is no way that 99% figure is true. I have friends that actually make a living at it. My father pulled money out of every MLM he ever did and he did many. The issue is the money you make is a far cry from the dream they...

    Completely different concept. In economics payday loans are about discriminatory pricing. You can read about the economics about them here: http://freakonomics.com/podcast/payday-loans/ It's different because demand for them is inelastic. This is not the case for MLM. MLM is driven by...

    You clearly don't have a clue what MLM is. MLM is a pipedream for sure as is trading for most people. But where are you getting this "selling worthless inventory" from? Most MLM companies sell real products. Whether its cleaning supplies, toilet paper, food items, etc. Yes their toilet...

    Dude, it's about sales. It's no different then the vendors on this site that sell dreams to people like you. Yes, you too can learn to make billions with a ruler drawing trend lines or whatever else the vendors here are pitching. You can choose to buy it or not. HLF and most other MLM sell...

    Is this possible

    You are correct. The long run return for the S&P 500 including dividends is around 9.5% a year with an avg sharpe of about .50. I don't know where this joker is getting 2% from. Hell even bonds generate a long term return of around 4.5% a year.

    It's not a scam. I know and understand MLM well. My damn father exposed me to this shit growing up. He was involved in many of them sad to say. At the end of the day, he was a salesman. All the products were real. All the products worked. Most of them were not that original. It was a...

    New Documentary on Bill Ackman

    Well said. The moral superiority that some traders seem to hold is slightly hypocritical. The education some guys have on here could have led them into medicine, cancer research, policy research, etc. Instead they buy and sell financial paper for profit. LOL. Yeah, let's go after herbal...

    Most cost effective way to protect against black swan event?

    And to further clarify Marty, the question was asked, what is the BEST most COST effective way to get this downside exposure. Why don't you also chime in then on what you feel that is. I'm genuinely interested. I stand by my argument that credit spreads are still the most cost effective way...

    Most cost effective way to protect against black swan event?

    Weren't you just a few months ago on the runaway inflation thesis that Trump was leading us to. You seemed to be quite confident in your steepener trades (they since got crushed). You were quite confident that banks stocks were going to keep ripping (they have pulled back a lot) even pointing...
