It 's hard for the rest of us to relate to 30 minutes of your brainwork aphie, it's a nanosecond of our time :D :D I can't tell you how much I cracked myself up with that one. But it had to be done. A whole page of posts had transpired and no one had ridiculed you for your existence. I...

Yeah sure, I'm out 50 grand on the NQ and now you tell me it was just a thought! What kind of a no good, low down, dirty rotten, filthy stinking.... Actually, I was going to post the same thing later, you know about 1 a.m. like the rest of my posts. I remember that 3 was somewhat arbitrary...

Given historical fair market value as reflected by the P/E, the NDX has quite a ways to go. If it weren't for that doggone earnings thing...!

Platypus, that is hilarious! :D Yannis, because I know that that my winners are way bigger than my losers, and the losers are setting up a nice winner, I use these facts as positive motivaters. Hence my signature. I know that if I let a loser or losers scare me out, then as luck would have...

Sure... misspell marubozu, so when I do a search on the web I get junk! And I finally track it down to a thread from you to you on Silicon Investor. Thanks Brenden! :)

Wow, this tape-reading is beginning to pick up steam. These guys at the prop firms trading a bazillion shares a day, which is still less than a gazillion, tend to be tape readers. Hmmmm.....

You make an observation that is not discussed very often, but is very important to understanding the benefits of the MACD. The MACD is both a momentum indicator, and a trend-following indicator. Because it is derived from moving averages, it is a trend-follower. Because it is also derived...

Robert's tip is all you need for the color question, that one will nail it. Here are two references for you that are "excel"- lent , yuk yuk, in my opinion, one you can go to right now, the other is a book. The website MrExcel.com is absolutely awesome. Not only are there archived questions...

I discarded Bollinger Bands. They seem to work well no doubt, but again, not for my style of trading. They sure look pretty on the screen. Especially if you have the black background, and the bands in cobalt blue with the center line and concommitant ma's in rainbow colors. But they had to...

Andy, you're a perfect example of the continuing evolution... refining, sharpening, getting rid of this, taking a look at that, different tools for different trades. Profitseer, I missed your earlier post about the 3 traders and the ma crossovers. What an excellent point. And that example...

The Paul of TA!

I promise not to post a disparaging comment about any indicator. At most, it will be why it didn't work for me!!!

I removed the active Level 2 after the first 3 months I had it. I still keep a regional L2 which keeps the total shares, but doesn't break it down to each ECN or MM. I found when I was daytrading that this spooked me because of the number of bogus size posts that they flash up there.

As traders mature they typically change methods, time frames, and indicators. I'd like to know what method, time frame, or indicator you have tried and since discarded, and why. Please stay on topic, and do not bash another participant for his or her views about an indicator, time frame, or...

I don't know of any other business where people ask other people how much they make! :eek:

I have to wonder at this point if Jason is even bothering with this thread. But if so, I agree that you should spend nothing until you have been to the library and the many sites on the net that offer free education. There is no one way to do it right. There are as many ways as you can think...

Who is FPC? Eighteen posts, two of which are here and useless rant! Wow, I can't wait to read the other posts, these are so good. OldTimer I have to agree with you that Master Swing Trader is an excellent book. I didn't read the one Db compared it too. There is so much value in that book...

Sarasota you make my point exactly. That is exactly what I am saying. There are plenty of single A, double AA, and triple AAA players who never made it to the majors. Does that mean they can't coach a major league team.? No! Because a person here has never made a million bucks trading, do...

Most NFL head coaches were NFL players? Most NBA head coaches were NBA players? Most NHL head coaches were NHL players? Most MLS head coaches were MLS players? I don't think so. Granted, many MLB head coaches were MLB players. I respect your point however, because I have asked myself how...

A thought occurs to me about those who want to say something to the effect of "if you haven't traded, you shouldn't give trading advice" or "if you aren't making money trading, you shouldn't talk about trading." And I do not mean this in any critical sense, only food for thought. If those...
