    The real (sad) truth revealed thru that cartoon is the man allows the woman to dictate to him, and will not assume his rightful place as the gender of authority.

    Absolutely perfect MACD setup on the ES this morning, right out of the thread "Free ES trading system that really works" :D I admit there is more to this setup than shown here, yet this one trade would have caught $150 per car in a little more than an hour. I haven't tested it long...

    Surf's Special Situation Journal

    Surf makes a valid point that lots of little trades typically do not outperform a few "big" ones where you catch the main movements of The Market, using the leaders. Or as "old turkey" once said, when answering why he did not sell every rip and rebuy the reactionz: "It's a bull market... I...

    Fractional Reserve Banking help?

    I agree with the "prevent bank run" choice. Banks need to honor withdrawal demands at any time and they take the gamble that no more than 10% of depositors will do this at any given time. The "interbank lending" system gives them a way to keep this level intact despite day to day...

    I've concluded its impossible to day trade index futures manually

    I believe this is true. I spent 3 years looking for the "perfect" TA buy signal but came to finally realize that any signal will work great under the "right" conditions. Those conditions are the key element to the secret sauce....... I won't discount the theory of "price drivers" or...

    Thats it we topped march 6th time to go short.

    Yikes that dip didn't last. The classic Bernanke "V shaped bounce" I didn't buy it, but there might be another chance tomorrow. :eek: :confused: :cool: :D

    Futures Trader abruptly stops trading, becomes airline baggage handler

    Lol, I was a ramp agent in the late 90s in Phoenix. Fun job, but only if you are completely nuts about airplanes and want the free travel benefits. The guy may have wiped out, or maybe he's just burned out and ready for a vacation. Throwing bagz isn't that hard.

    Arguing semantics is a defensive tactic...... It has been proven that trading real money is profitable. But you make a valid point. Shall I enter the TST combine? Will that satisfy The ET Jury?

    Wow. EU steals 10% of bank deposits in exchange for bailout

    Sold all at break even on Friday because The Market began indicating that the mood may no longer be bullish. I know you skeptics will call BS so here is the proof. Break even including comms :eek:

    + Although, the urge can still be fulfilled by picking the bottoms of the dips inside the up trend, which tend to happen in predictable zones. It's great fun, and lowers the risk compared to buying breakouts.
