The OP has a whopping $700 account rolled into maybe $2000 in just days with no losing days. http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=204422 10% of $2000 is only $200.

"One cannot be serious all the time." Fair enough. But being humorous is one thing, making sexually explicit (or in some cases implicit) statements is quite another. Yes unfortunately there is no short supply of people who are vulgar, obscene and distasteful in these public forums. But...

tradingjournals: You had started quite a few threads in recent weeks. This one: The Meaning Of A Trading Edge. Past ones: Your Most Valuable Trading Asset Is XXXXXXXX; The One Thing That Changed Everything In Your Trading; etc.. Are you collecting materials to write a journal (as...

Hey guys... he has gotten from $750 to where he is now. And apparently he has gotten over his fear of making big profits. $450 a day now! There is no turning back! No more working for $10/hour. He is on a row! No down day!!! Lay low guys! :) Everybody has to discover his destiny...

Matcha is on a plane over the Pacific Ocean now. She had indicated in past posts that they are daily pivot lines (e.g. PP, S1, R1, etc.) drawn automatically by TradeStation.

Before you spend you money on the 10GB memory... Consider this: My set up. I originally configured 12GB memory on my Intel i7-930 box. But later on I pulled out 6GB and use them on a second box. With 6GB, i7-930, Windows 7 64-bit, driving 8 monitors, running TradeStation: about 30 charts...

Just got back window-shopping at Fry's. Some updates: PNY 8400 GS - they do support the 2560 x 1600 resolution with the DVI output. With VGA only 2040 x 1080 (or something like that). So if your monitors have DVI input you are okay. (PNY 8400 GS has dual DVI outputs on each card.) The...

Welcome to the DIY club, bro! :) My thoughts: If you decide on having the 2560 x 1600 30" screens, make sure you have the video card(s) that would support it. Because the low-price cards such as PNY 8400 GS cannot support that kind of high res. The set of 6 x 22" (1920 x 1080) [equate...

Actually I have an even better idea. Indeed let's fight with our kung-fu when the waiter brings us the bill. We will knock him unconscious so we don't need to pay at all! :)

Right on! That was a very good call! In the past 2 weeks the volatility has been very low. Perhaps the only thing you may have done better is to set the original entry as the stop but not trail it. Dow/S&P were in very tight range.

If you come to Sausalito, I will treat you to McDonald's. If I go to Hong Kong, of course it is YOUR treat!!!! ;) jk Per Chinese customs, whoever makes the invite will pay la...

I don't understand. The OP bought the call option. If the option is "In The Money", how can you lose money when/if exercised? Or else why is it called "In The Money"?

Of course! I continue to learn things from you. You are my sifu. That makes you Matcha's sifu's sifu. Or grand sifu! :D (It sounds like Matcha might be catching a flight over the Pacific by now...) I love views where I eat. Would you mind crossing Salisbury Road from The Peninsula...

Good for you guys!!! I usually try to help people who posted legit questions on ET based on what I know. But I will ignore those who said "hey... I need to make some money... fast! I need 45k for a new car. Where do I start? What do I need to know?" Is that similar? LOL Oh yeah...

Vintage but luxurious... You can say that about the Peninsula Hotel in Hong Kong. Next time you two ladies meet, perhaps have a famous "afternoon tea" at the Peninsula. Merely HKD150 pp. It's a steal! (Not frugal though...) :D :D Peace Hotel... Jazz... Shanghai wouldn't be Shanghai...

Man! You just couldn't let this thread rest, could you? You have to invoke the ghosts and daemons. Go ahead... let's rack another 20+ pages off this one. :D :D :D

TST: for tourists Mongkok is where the locals go for shopping. Like Chinatown in San Francisco: Grant Street is for tourists. The real Chinese all go to Stockton Street to do their shopping. :)

Hmmm... you must. There really is no "premarket" for YM and ES. 24x5. You must see them as such. 24x5. What happened in Asia, then Europe, is a prelude to what's to come in the USA. You don't need to deal with the "gap" anomaly. Observe the runs and count the waves and 2-stage runs.

What a great parallel! US = #1 nation (so far); China = #2, will be #1 eventually ;) NYC = US's financial center; Shanghai = China's financial center Empire State Building; Oriental Pearl Tower??? Next to Hudson River; Next to Huangpu River View of Manhattan; View of Pudong A...

d-rock1080: I will leave you with this thought: If you are like most people taking a wage/salary job (and I used to do that for over 20 years), you can calculate how much you would be making to the date of your retirement - assuming a steady salary increase and occassional...
