I know youre not looking for my opinion but you do see that gold isnt that weak priced in the depressed economies/currencies of europe and japan. But the USD and US economy is the best game in town and gold doesnt compare well. That is tough to work around and that gold chart breaks down in...

It is possible that you guys are just talking, taunting , poking a stick at the board. How does anyone know that you are not just masturbating, fantasizing, unable to pull the trigger. Perma-bears that have nothing to show for the entire bull run and actually sold near the bottom in 2008. Zero...

Do not labor today good man.

Who knows, maybe things will get tense with Russia next week. Putin reminds the world he has nukes. No kidding. He knows a Toyota with a .50 cal is enough for pause these days.

http://stockcharts.com/freecharts/yieldcurve.php Select "animate" to see past cycles. For the last segment of the animation corresponding to Qe 4 , i thought my ipad locked up and found myself tapping the glass. Past curve behaviour does not seem to apply post fin-crisis. That sp500 chart...

Curiosity has brought me to looking at currency etf spreads of spreads. For example BZF/ICN - (FXC/FXA). The result is to be long 2 currencies and short 2 currencies but trade/invest as a single position. The chart of the spread1/spread2 ratio is like any other price chart and could be traded...

The most common symbols would be: Buy ZN or ZB or J7 or sell E6 They act/serve as a flight to safety to offset ES sell off/volatility. But what if they dont? You cant know that they will and to what degree. I have heard more than one trader on this site advise not to hedge this way. A pure...

"Follow Fed"

As a staunch defender of Jack in other threads......hell of a job getting things back on track. I just cant remember which threads so dont ask.

Jack probably receives 5 to 10k dollars from 1 in 10,000 readers to trade on their behalf to extract the full offer of the market and double monies weekly. THAT is trolling and there is method to that madness. Honestly, do you think he actually believes the shit he writes? Dont answer that.

Weekly Renko charts seem good for a filtered, uncluttered view of trend.

Seems to me like you are saying that many systems will go to hell without trend. Prices ranging seem to be more common. Dont markets trend only 30% of the time? It would not surprise me to find that some traders specialize in trading range. Seems tougher to trade range though I dont mean ES 5...

Seems that one ounce of truth and a fair amount of incompetence can be extrapolated to evil conspiracy. Maybe effects of globalization over time is substituted with the "New World Order" I know a guy who screams hyper inflation yet could not tell you one reason why treasuries would move a bp...

Jackson Hole 2010 then.... QE II will have had diminishing effect on the real economy and stock market. QE III after twist is unlikely to have much effect. It will drive interest rates and inflation through the roof and we will have a treasury bond market crash alomg with emerging...

Why two seprate outrights? Cant one plan and size accordingly for what you describe? If a larger data set of the ratio or the difference line is shown then past price performance can be used to measure risk just like any instrument. Ths seems a very short time to analyze this spread...

After a long time of low volatility and liquidity wouldnt it be surprising if liquidity itself sucked in credit and equity markets. Someome has gotta be trapped after all this. "NoBid" may be a good ET handle.

Wow, Nice post RealTrader. Cup your balls with one hand and grab the back of your neck with the other hand. If "they" are about the same size then you will not be run off of here. :eek:

https://www.interactivebrokers.com/en/?f=%2Fen%2Ftrading%2Forders%2Fconditional.php Would this conditional order allow you to set a limit price on the option then set a an acceptable range(peg) for the underlying stock? I would think the underlying could be peggd by a percentage as well as...

Read Marc Chandler, marctomarket.com , as a starting point. He scrapes macro headines/issues daily for many countries and opines.

I will check the internet and the blogoshere for a few minutes and get back to you with the answer to these questions shortly. :D
