It’s ok, sniff, I’ll bounce back. Eventually. Just trying to help. Speaking of which, I’ve been noticing a pattern of intolerance in your posts during the last few weeks. If you have the urge to dispute this, may I suggest you go back and reread some of your posts on trading and the...

Tape reading for intraday traders is invaluable. For example, if you see frenzied activity with the bid getting hit hard but price does not down move much, what might be an reasonable expectation when this aggressive selling ends? Experience and judgement comes into play in determining what is...

Why bother with elections, when we have polls?

My tentative choices are: If Trump wins, Living in America by James Brown: If Biden wins, playing a clip from James Bond, Let Live and Let Die:

That’s what I get for taking US media narratives at face value. I looked up the history and current status of Tibet and see that your description is fair. Perhaps next time, before I render a public opinion on something, I will confirm there is validity to it. Thank you for calling this to my...

Brilliant! Social distancing to prevent World Wars! The Tibetans should hire Nancy Pelosi. At least she would get them minimum wage!

Imagine what the world would think of that. China is still somewhat sensitive to world opinion. I suppose if or when China longer cares about world opinion, we’ll be on our way to another world war.

It seems like institutional end of quarter portfolio adjustments are going on. The weakest sectors continue to underperform and the strongest lead the way up. Momentum wise, on a swing trade basis, I’m bullish on NQ, and ES is within a whisker of bullish momentum, at least by my definition...

500,000 Tibetans? Imagine if these Tibetans had Second Amendment rights and felt strongly about not working for the Chinese.

Not sure how much weight people put into spray painted “Advertising”, but probably about the same number of people who call the hand written phone numbers in public bathroom stalls.

Supply. High historical prices brought out supply and may have started to curb demand.

From wikipedia.org: ControversyEdit Rate of overturned decisionsEdit Some argue the court's rulings are reversed by the Supreme Court at a higher rate than other courts. For example, in 2018, President Trump claimed that the Ninth Circuit "is overturned more than any Circuit in the Country...

Is it really true?

My options trading mentor, pictured below, says you don’t know what you are talking about.

My ears are burning, so what you are saying here must apply to me. Case in point: Today I bought an OTM 1-2-1 (It should have been 2-3-1, but I was sleepy) ES put ‘fly that expires on Friday. Even though ES nearly touched the body of my ‘fly, my profits were much less than expected. Being...

I woke up one late afternoon and realized I was out of Sterno. I had hit rock bottom. I realized the truth was staring me in the face: I was a degenerate gambler who lost everything. There was a choice to be made. Trading or Sterno. I no longer trade.

Now the Republicans are working.

Let’s take a brief and informal look at the history of repressed people since WW I and the effects it had on society: 1. Women’s Sufferage. Women were long denied access to some of the priviledges than men enjoyed, including voting, which caused resentment and an ultimately successful...

Ot sounds like the Democrats have 2020 in the bag. Assuming their base is all they need. If the Democrats win 2020, Kamala may be a potential bright spot if she is an Independent thinker, at least by Democrat standards. Grin.

I’m pretty sure it has happened in the United States quite a few time over recent decades. Military grade anthrax and an inordinate number of plane crashes involving very Liberal, but apparently incorruptible Senators while running for reelection, among others. The problem with today’s...
