    give me more trading!

    You ain't blowin smoke. Kinda diverging from the thread (and mebbe some of these replies need to be herded to chit-chat), but to us folks in Carolina, it's like Jake came outta nowhere! Now, I was appreciative but hesitant after his excellent performance last week - one good half does not a...

    give me more trading!

    I hear ya funky. Now that I seem to be breaking through the Breaking Even Barrier (tm), I can't wait for Monday. :D Fortunately, it's now football season, and the Carolina Panthers are doing astonishingly well. Ok, except for those two stupid interceptions by our newbie QB. But we are...

    daily expectations

    Good point, and perhaps target is the wrong word - I think it has inapporpriate connotations. It would be bad if somebody was in their last trade on Friday, calculated what they needed to make to hit their target, then refused to exit until that target was hit. I just did my weekly review...

    How would you trade this

    Yep, but I'm just a "troll" after all, apparently. :D It's important to analyze charts in more than one time frame, if one is a "troll" and expects to make money in the markets. "Trolls" also notice that trends in higher time frames have more strength than those in lower frames. You'll...

    What do you dislike about trading?

    For me, there are two main drawbacks. The biggest is a lack of social interaction - I really liked saying Hello to folks in the office. Now, the only person I see every day is my wife. The second is an unsteady income. Working a regular job, one has a general idea of how much is coming...

    Trade on 9/11?

    idiots in washington

    Or even better. If China is keeping their goods artificially low in price, doesn't that mean that they are (in essence) exporting their wealth to the USA?

    Best Programming Language to Learn

    Kinda depends on what you want to do. If you want to create a trading interface to TWS for instance, go VB.Net. No question about it. If yer going to push the envelope of your target system, go C++ or even assembly. If you do go the C++ route, I encourage you to first pick up a passing...

    Time to go short?

    An amazing run up that levels off instead of pulling back. That says even higher markets to me. Not that I trade overnight (generally), but I do not see it as bearish. And my thoughts plus a credit card can get you a beer in some places. :D :D :D

    What attracted you to trading?

    In order of importance: Trading is challenging Trading is my pastime Work and live anywhere Help me avoid the rat race/politics in business Trading is easier than doing other jobs Possibly the best is that I have no boss, no customers, no inventory, no selling, none of the hassles...

    More Chart Work

    Somebody is actually conducting a test of T/A, by having subjects pick which one of four charts is the real one: http://www.burns-stat.com/test/pages/techanchal.html

    no passage of time at the speed of light

    I've never really grokked relativity, and I think it's because I only read the EZ Reader explanations (that start off with a guy on top of a train that gets hit by lightning and a guy on the ground) rather than a math explanation that I have to struggle through. But anyways, imagine our twins...

    Getting Started

    Howdy Brad, and welcome to ET. You'll find all kinds of folks here, ranging from wet-behind-the-ears newbies such as you appear, to scum-sucking Trolls who "live" for the opportunity to crap in a thread, to very successful traders, to cranky bastids that have lost it all, along with everything...

    How do you short a Broadway Musical?

    Oh, there's no question this thing is gonna win an award or six - I'm sure that's what Rosie is after. But it ain't gonna make money like Cats or anything.

    I trade 1 ES

    Yeah, you kinda missed the change in trend that I warned ya about a few days ago. Just for this post, I'm gonna fire up my system and stay up even later (my wife and I are going to a county fair tomorrow, and she'll have me head if I am too tired to go). There has been no significant...

    T-REX Journal

    T-REX makes the point many times that he has a 3 point target, not 30. The 30 he posted above is almost certainly a typo, or else it's an attempt at humor. Sheesh.
