    I will reveal the Holy Grail in this thread...

    Abby Cohen comes to mind. I'd rather wear a suit and tie than wear jeans and a t-shirt while being an analyst. 2 different worlds. Not for me.

    Exactly. And you and I obviously have 2 completely different goals. You want to have an educational cushion when you fail, so you can still get a job. I have a job which I have failed at and bounced back from so many times, I should get a "resilient" tattoo on my forehead. And that job...

    Not anti-college. Just anti-college when it comes to trading. Why do you think that is? Perhaps it's because we are encouraged to pursue knowledge on our own, and discovering a method on your own is infinitely better than having one taught to you. I wonder how many of the guys posting huge...

    What's your idea of "the big leagues". I trade at home for a prop firm, and it is all I want to do, and the sky is the limit. I've never looked at it as a stepping stone. Going to work in the big city wearing a tie would be nothing short of a nightmare.

    No shit. I think he may be a college recruiter who's scared because people are figuring out they don't need a college education to be successful.

    I wonder how many poor saps invested in hedge funds thinking "He's got an Ivy league education. He can't lose."

    I wonder if I'm just getting too damned old for 1 minute charts...

    I'm not sure you've been paying attention, and it's starting to dawn on me that only a few of us on this board trade the way I do. I'll cut to the chase. Take a look at 5 minute charts of ZNGA and USHS on Friday, and explain to me how any support and resistance levels were at all relevant...

    "Continuous adaptation". Couldn't agree more.

    Be quiet, asshole. That's my new strat. :cool:

    Just an update. I appreciate all of the advice, and I actually took some of it to heart. The information overload question has always been in the back of my mind, and perhaps I had to go public with my concerns to make it count, and realize it was a serious issue. I am only looking at 8...

    Request? Crossfit women. Some are too butch for this thread, but many are just amazing. But maybe it's too specific for what you are looking for. Thanks Cass. Great thread.

    How often do you post on this site, Elite Trader?

    I didn't think posting every other day would be considered rare at first, but then I remembered I posted on the P/L thread every day for a long time. So now it's definitely rarely. Ok, now, back to my sandwich.

    How often do you post on this site, Elite Trader?

    1118 posts since Nov of 2004 = Assuming I registered on the first of the month, that would be exactly 7 years and 4 months ago. Or (7x365) +30+31+31+28 = 2675 2675 + 2 leap year days = 2677 days. 1118/2677 = .41763 times per day Thank you for the arithmetic challenge of the day...

    Until an EMP goes off. Hopefully you're not long when it happens.

    Umm.. Is there any way that all of the future categories have "wet" sub categories? Wet, well, it just seems to work.

    The stock markets are dead

    I'll agree with that. Even the high flyers are mostly choppy in the afternoon nowadays.

    You're not trading what's moving. And there's always something moving.

    Good God, man. That sounds like something which would be on that "1000 ways to die" show.

    You need to spend more time in each bar. Even a racy floozie like FSLR knows that much.
