Sounds to me like you already took up farming... bottomland crops with discrete fencing, slugbait and mouse poison included. Looks like it was a stellar crop for ya, congrats on the potency.

Oh Janes, you silly goose. Don't you find the title of your thread here rather hypocritical? I mean after all... you secretly aspire to be the king guru yourself. Might want to discuss that inner conflict at the next weekly meeting with your shrink.

Same here... for the most part. Using charts = chart tools to measure price action for probable upside or downside bias next, but the pace and flow of tape is important. Low vol pop & chop that just meanders around clouds the overall picture. Normal to high volume and volatility conditions make...

The 15min chart attached shows ES 930 to 946 ramp on Monday as the entire upward progress for two days. Tuesday was an inside session on lighter volume... no backfilled support. Wednesday opened above the highs with yet another hole (gap) in the block of cheese. Where's the foundation...

Because that's what they built their edges around. Give any of them an equal amount of time learning the nuances in futures, and they'd do equally well. Stocks versus futures do not make the difference in their success... even if they don't realize that fact. They'd win in the end regardless.

Bingo. Absolutely 100% correct. There are relatively few profit opportunities in eminis intraday for anyone using any approach that has any edge known to man. 6.75 long hours of picking needles from haystacks. It ain't the leverage. It's not the algos. Not at all. It is the individual...

Why self-annointed guru, you're living proof of that email reply in our prior visit. I recall you bragging about making $40k in a single session where I personally struggled. ET still waits for any kind of blotter posted by you. I don't really care about the fact that God blew breath in you to...

That's a slang description for markets going up on thin air... no volume, overnight gaps, final minute program spikes, etc. The overnight rally to critical resistance left holes below it akin to "swiss cheese" support. If they found a reason to keep on pushing higher, it'd be a gap & hold...

If you really wanted to lay the lumber today following last night's swiss cheese rally, a much better idea was shorting in the low 950s to high 940s. Any self-annointed "guru" worth their salt would have been selling those stone-cold obvious breaks up there.

"trend" is a very relative term. Between now and next week we could see 1000 from here, 900 from here or 900 and then 1000 from here. Or none of the above if the tapes remain comatose thru it all. today could be a gap & go surge to new recent highs... but I'm currently short from 953.50 stop...

SPX / ES 1,000 level is high-odds to fulfill... quite probable by or before the end of option expiry next week.

Subjective? I wonder if John Henry and Richard Dennis would be interested to know that their career achievements to date have been surpassed by several public message-board alumni.

i was hoping more of the montauk monster. ** 100% sure that is a one-year old (waterlogged) racoon. It is missing the upper teeth, what some guess as a "beak" is merely the nasal bones of its muzzle. Spent enough time in the water to slip all fur from the skin, but that little tuft of...

safe distance from what? In case you failed to notice, surf... the otter in that picture is dead

River Otter. Male Holly would have stopped, slung it in the trunk and we'd have it halfway towards a pair of slippers by now.

Truth #1: any type of successful trading is hard. Damn hard. I think everyone who tries their hand at this profession very long will agree. I don't think there has ever been a long period of time where trading is easy. Some single events, some days, some weeks are easy... but not entire months...
