So, you lied. o_O Hey, no biggie. Righties have every right to shit upon the truth, too. I mean, it's not *my* deal, but if it works for you, then "Hey!" :rolleyes: But the vacuity required by your fallacious use of "activist leftism" means your closing statement (since *you* made it) gets...

That is STILL in my head. :confused:

As used to be said, here's "...the rest of the story." https://www.macrotrends.net/2481/stock-market-performance-by-president Cute to work around a bit. VERY small sample, statistically. As well (as has been pointed out above), there is a lot of serial correlation/causation here -- the latest...

The brand matters a lot less than the age. They don't tell you that (which is a real mystery to me), but both the battery backup-edness AND the circuit protection have *very* limited lifespans, and should be replaced every few years (like, "5 years" max). Who knows where Li-ion batteries are...

"Hey! I got one!!" https://www.wsj.com/market-data/stocks/peyields "Does that work for ya?" ("You've got a mean streak, don't you." :sneaky:)

This is highly suggestive of a recession on the horizon... (Though not, as has become popular, "in the next year". Note the mid-90s -- a very similar environment in many ways.) If you bought with a 2.6% yield? Yeahhhhh, it might be awhile. But too, these days? "We're one tweet away...

Yes. Absolutely. I'd even go so far as to say, "Typical" of every major divot on the S&P over the last decade. "...Stop playing...?" That depends on what you do now, right? This all signals danger. Danger means risk. Along with risk *should*come* reward. Yep! But as an option *seller*, I'm...

If you KNEW that KO or GOOG or MMM equities were going to absolutely flat for the next 90 days, could you make money from that? Apparently, you can't right now. And that's okay! But when you answer "Yes! YES! Ohhhh YES!!!" :D:D That's a day when such a sideways trend will become "valid" in your...

"...an activist Leftie." Source? I appreciate the rest of your post as factual and informative (and *important*), but this sticks out as an inappropriate ad hominem and (to be polite) "counter-factual." In the meantime, ag products do not have IP beyond the production space, so Trump's...

TWS' BookTrader -- simultaneously includes a price ladder/price histogram for your trading convenience, along with OCO/SL&TP. :thumbsup: :D

I have been reading of some shady dealings with TradingSchools.org, too. Here's a good example -- two "complaints" cited by tradingschools.org -- both from RipOffReports -- BUT THAT'S IT. Hmmmmm. And when you go to read the complaints? Sorry, but Anton Kreil's version of things sounds a whole...

:wtf: No direct knowledge, just my reaction to the Anton Kreil name. I thought that BBC "documentary" {series??} was pretty cute, then heard all sorts of dubious follow-up, so.... :confused: I'd keep my eyes open.

I have read on good authority that Trump is actually responsible for everything that has gone on in the markets for the past 11 years. Man! Talk about 'hiding your light under a bushel basket'!!! The guy should get out more -- find a platform and take some credit.

As a "total jerk", you're a real piker, Noobs. A Noob to the tenth degree. ("Boy! You sure tol' him!" Yeah I did. Ye-ah. :cool:)

Wouldn't this thread work better if it were *constrained* to some degree? Like, "This Week In Trump Dumps" or something? Otherwise...

...and how 'bout a "And Good on 'im!" :thumbsup::thumbsup: Jeez, guys -- how 'bout being happy for someone showing some umph? My "Current Projects" list is about 6 months olde. :(

A lot of good posts on this thread, so this thought stands on others' shoulders: On any given day, a strategy that has worked in the past still faces an uncertain future -- whether that past performance is in live trading or empirical back-testing, the strategy's ability to maintain "success"...

((Thanks for posting a GREAT thread. I am way bummed that I can't get into it *nearly* as much as I'd like. Nice looking stuff, though. I'll certainly follow this thread with interest.)) The "25-30+ years" thing is just nice in theory, but commonly unworkable in practice. And in fact, *much* is...

Noobs is 1,000% further as a Pythonisté than me, but I can for-sure tell you all about spreadsheets. From just trying to keep my toe in the API water, I think Noobs would recommend that Python mit der ib-synch set-up -- I have heard nothing but good things about it since its appearance. FWIW...

Keep rolling your own. (My 100% biased view.) TWS remains a trading platform with toys and bells and whistles cobbled onto it. (The "Risk Lab"{?} is a typical example -- it varies things by 5%-10%-and-more, whereas when my portfolio moved ±1%, that was a pretty big deal. My solution? (Actually...
