Sucks to be a football fan in Cleveland here last few weeks... Browns lose to Cinci and don't make playoffs... Bucks disappoint again in the title game... :confused:

Could be making this interesting again... Let's go BUCKS.

There's a different mentality to trading 5 vs. 50 vs. 500 lots. In theory, it's the 'same' but as Steve said, the psychology of 'so much on the line' could be too much for some people. Make no mistake, trading 5 lots every day and making 5 pts a day is a nice little gig for most people. It...

Wow, this is terrible. The personal fouls are just ridiculous!! Unreal.

Gotta go with the underdog tonight with the Buckeyes. Since everyone is on the LSU boat, it seems like OSU is the right choice this year. Yes, it's a homer pick as well. GO BUCKS!

nk - I don't think there's enough indicators there. A few more should do the trick. :D

Wow, that is nice. One fluid monitor vs. 2 or 3. The next step is to trade from a machine like in the Minority Report...

Well, it appears just about everyone is on the LSU bandwagon. Which means that the odds are pretty good OSU wins this one. :D

Unfortunately for the OP, he will not understand what you are saying here OS until one day he is not quite 'spot on'.

First, that really sucks, sorry to hear about this. Second, after you contact your lawyer, get your funds out ASAP. In today's technology and amount of brokers out there, this should never be a problem. It's unfortunate for the OP.

WAIT A MINUTE - WHERE ARE THE TREASURIES? Rate - help me out here, you said all funds, in particular aggressive funds, hold treasuries... I'm having trouble seeing where this aggressive fund you stated would hold treasuries does.... Hmmmmm.... Big surprise. Amateur hour on ET yet...

YOU stated that AGGRESSIVE funds hold treasuries. That is completely off base. I never said NO funds own treasuries. YOU said aggressive funds do. That is wrong rate. Go back, read what you wrote.

Really? This action is THAT bad? Guess it depends on your style of trading. Chugging along here, nothing to brag about, but booking some decent profits on the ES. I don't trade the YM, so perhaps it is a bit uglier today.

Oh yeah smarty - just b/c the funds are not leveraged like many traders here, does not mean they do not take some substantial risk in aggressive funds. To be labeled aggressive, the funds MUST take on quite a bit of risk. Many accomplish this by investing in foreign securities/debts. You...

Exactly right - if the OP is willing to become an active manager of his funds and not a set it and forget it participant, then looking for those large drops are key to some quick success. Mor - if you can only stomach a 15% loss, then I hope you are ready to pull the trigger and get out...

You are so wrong here it's not even funny. You think the aggressive funds have TREASURIES and bonds??? Wow. Enough said. Anyone that knows anything about how 401k funds are actually structured will know that you are completely clueless here. And if you find 'aggressive' funds in...

No, you are wrong. HAVING ALL YOUR EGGS IN ONE BASKET IS FOOLISH, NO MATTER THE AGE. Ever seen an aggressive fund lose 90% in ONE year? I have plenty of times. How good do you think our friend here will feel when he sees he is putting money into something that lost 90% of it's value in ONE...

Mor- First, CONGRATS on taking this step. You will be happy you did later. Second, while you are young, I would not put everything in one basket. I would suggest using the Aggressive, Growth and Growth/Income areas. As a broker previously, I sold quite a few 401k plans and while it's so...

alero, Here are the Nison books I would recommend as I primarily trade candlestick patterns myself: The Candlestick Course: http://tinyurl.com/2dephd Japanese Candlestick Charting Techniques, Second Edition: http://tinyurl.com/25sfr7 Those links should hopefully take you directly to...

Well then, they must not work! :D Candlestick patterns can and do work intraday; however, it's not a one size fits all or what I call 'Hammer Hunting*'. Just b/c someone has not produced enough evidence for your liking does not mean they do not work. And since Hammer Hunting* does not...
