Think of a standard risk+reward evaluation: into the choice function goes elements of 1) absolute payoff ($$$) 2) outcomes' probabilities ("vol") 3) time ("Tick-tock tick-tock, Clarice.") With an experience of deprivation, seeking low volatility beats return (And the cash goes under the...

But still, no identifiable question, nor specific request. "Guess we're good here! o_O:rolleyes::) "

"Timing is everything."

I even re-read it again, just for giggles! But Nope! No questions. No requests. Guess we're good here! o_O:rolleyes::)

But is there a *question* about anywhere?

(Now that we're completely off point....) In 1994, two days (it turns out) before my sons were born, their mom and I bought a 10-year old Volvo 240 GL wagon. Knowing my penchant for 24-hour drives, curvy roads, nasty conditions... We'd shopped around for a car that had rear-wheel drive, "feel"...

And yes, we stepped in it. ("Those dratted kids!")

I'm not going to point out the empirical horror you propose because you know it in better detail than all of us. I'm only going to point out that no one here will come to your defense, because all who trade that way are gone. Busted.

The problem Pek (as I'm guessing you already know) is that this is a Big Boy Agenda, and could well be shut off at tonight's close. Watching volume will be paramount. The NYSE TRIN has camped out just below 1.00, so a pretty balanced day, even with high (3rd week) volume/selling/reconciliation...

One of the most socially destructive things of the last half-century is the insidious twisting of "discipline" from something admirable and good, to something evil, bad, unfair, knee-jerk, unproportioned and sapping of any joyeux de vivre. Seriously -- as a species, this sucks.

+1 "noggin" Evaluation? By the time the idea has coalesced into long/short/when/where, it has already gone through a gazillion cycles of 'edge-shopping'. You're either doing this, or you're wasting (valuable) time.

I've got a buddy who's a very smart/savvy investor, and ......... and a dumb trader. -- He trades a full-time account(s), with part-time hours. -- He is a ferocious GAAP/dividend/PE proponent (where most of his capital lays), but he works a ferocious short+naked option inventory (where most of...

Don't know about others, but the NYSE-TICK has been screwed for a year or so. COME ON, IB. But, since you mention it, ES data has been screwed as an added contract, on other graphs. WHAT THE FUCK. COME ON, IB!!

The person who prepares your taxes is the best one to answer this question. You might consider printing out very report form available from your trading platform, and bring that for a relaxed sit-down with the tax preparer, and let them pick. You might want to do this ASAP, and then schedule a...

What!?! "Over-leveraging and bucket shop reasons" aren't enough? Jeeesh! Well then, I'll add the fact that while foreign exchange *should* operate (in a fiat currency world) on the tides of underlying fundamentals, it instead operates on the waves and turbulence of black swans and black swans...
