I've been around farming and agriculture my entire life. Everything above is accurate: aerable ground becomes more scarce each year due to urban sprawl and erosion. There is less land today available for farming than ever in history, and more people on earth to feed. That long-term math...

Rogers is half-right, as usual Many american farmers are doing very well for themselves... if not outright getting rich. Their success includes grain - crop farming, timber sales, gravel & stone, mineral rights to mining, windmill and cell tower leases, etc. Go to any state fair tractor...

Definitely... NFA would be the first phone call to make, I would not let one day pass without doing that. Regulatory agencies exist for a reason, they do the best they can with what they have to work with. A couple of weeks ago I saw a tv commercial on some FX company offering education and...

Educators registered as NFA members have tight restrictions on what they can promote to the public... starting with any references on actual profits made in real accounts with real money or anything otherwise. All text or recorded videos that reference profits, potential profits in any manner...

fwiw: you managed to get filled on your sell at the "ask" or high print to the tick... which almost never happens in ES. Count yourself more fortunate than anything that the swing high to 1336.00 and drop back down to 1332.00 let you out where it did. As for the other guy you mentioned, his...

that is all still true... with one big caveat Keep in mind that price will magnetize to moving-average "touches" as time goes on. What was not a clean pullback or touch in real time becomes a clean touch historically when looking back. One of the biggest traps to MA trading... whole...

What you meant to ask was, "how does one know when 60 or more out of 100 similar pullbacks will continue with the trend versus true reversals" Any single circumstance in trading means nothing. It's a waste of time to examine and dissect one lone sequence on any chart. You need to look at...

90.65 was the break of control-bar support... earlier short with same odds of success and defended with higher stop :)

To simply say "most breakouts fail" is an incomplete statement... especially for the ES in particular. It is very clear measured breakout or breakout = pullback continued symbol, probably best of all with CL being a close second Just a matter of knowing how to measure which pending breakouts...

I do. The challenge with trading "size" in TF or CL has more to do with speed of movement rather than liquidity. The way those two can spike, slam and pound in a nanosecond, it's not possible to click in a block order and expect it to cleanly fill all of the time. Or even most of the time...

Actual trading results for the week were... Mon: +$200 Tue: (-$100) Wed: +$10* Thu: +$500 Fri: +$210 --------------- Total: +$820 (one TF contract per trade turned) trading results* The difference between +$820 trading results and +$20 actual results was human error, operator error of...

in your opinion, what is the connection between this specific thread and your email being hacked? how does this thread differ from any other thread or aspect of the site in general?

Mon: +$1,000 Tue: (-$310) Wed: (-$300) Thu: idle Fri: +10 ------------------ Total: +$400 per contract Monday was a deliberate session. Tuesday was Bernanke 3:45pm day, wedged chopper until price action broke into the close, well after I had shut down this operation for the day...

High pressure salesman? please do define the term "high pressure" for ET If you consider a website and blog with no email list, no phone calls and no sales team whatsoever to be "high pressure" then I have to wonder what your term for "passive" might be. ** I really don't care if I'm on...

I'm done taking money from the market today... and was busy cleaning up my email box. thank you for the reminder to "unsubscribe" to this thread... I procrastinated too long in that act :cool:

jealous of what? what exactly are we talking about? what is the promotion? what is the service provided, intended or even proposed? what is in it for you, the trader? fwiw I have no dog in this (or any other) hunt because it has zero to do with any aspect of my life. If anything, I...

I have met and become friends with some serious professional traders from this forum who no longer actively post or have never posted at all. I value their internet friendship highly.

Due to equal measures of popular request and personal desire of accomplishment, I started trading a $2,000 account balance two weeks ago using one (1) emini Russell 2000 contract (TF) per turn. Nine sessions later the balance is $4,000+ from grind it out daily fashion. Some days were only...

I totally missed the sarcasm... would have chuckled for sure if we were sitting face to face over a beer (wine, scotch, soft drink) no need to apologize for good humor... I apologize for having it sail over my head :p

Maybe someone invented a forum where membership required a legitimate trading account with an adequate balance to clear futures. Great business opportunity - filter out all of the hacks and trolls. Actual trading discussion with input from persons actually knowledgeable in the art. that...
