    The 98% Who Fail

    We have been short Corn spreads since March. We rolled our short July positions into short U1 and Z1 positions. Go over to the "trading grain spreads using fundamentals" post, as I explained it detail yesterday, and today I posted the price charts. And yes, we held those shorts through...

    Cutting the deficit

    I love the 'social justice' mantra. When the white, working middle class, and Southern demographics abandon you en masse, create a fresh core demographic through legislation (Immigration Reform) and bribe them with entitlements. Oh, and in terms of Defense spending, since 1960 the...

    Cutting the deficit

    Oh, it would appear that your ilk is entitled to unilaterally change all of that by judicial activism and executive fiat. Social justice. One political party gets to pick winners and losers, and one political party gets to redistribute an entire society's wealth. Use and create entitlements...

    Cutting the deficit

    Exactly. It is very easy to have what you deem to be noble and utopian ideas when you are spending someone else's money. Try paying out 50% of what you make to the state and the Feds. And then every time you spend what was left that you did manage to keep, the taxes generated from that go to...

    Snake, you are correct - my mistake. Looking through your posts for any pre-existing trading experience was not fruitful. For example, this was your carefully crafted and technically superb response to a serious trader [ NoDoji ] : 02-10-11 12:37 AM...

    Cutting the deficit

    There are some independent thinktank studies floating around in the ether which draw forward curves for the US deficit with incredibly draconian assumptions such as cutting defense by 50 % and taxing the top tier at 75% . Without touching entitlements, it really isn't as significant as logic...

    Snake, in terms of my client business, you would be better off speaking with a client about his trading record using my models and system. Generally speaking, I try to match a prospect's background to an existing client trader in terms of a due diligence reference. For example, a power...

    The 98% Who Fail

    Throwing conditional Latin phrases at me ? Snake, why on earth would you want to know my track record other than a private prospectus offering? Prospective clients typically send me their resumes and sometimes a follow-up conference call is scheduled if that is what you are hinting at. If...

    Cutting the deficit

    It's a big shit sandwich, and everyone has to take a bite. The fact that the last two presidents each created new entitlement programs is a developing disaster. Defense spending you can cut quickly and deeply. Entitlements are the gift that keeps on giving.

    Cutting the deficit

    Why not, you have to know about as much as a community organizer. Have you benefited from an affirmative action-induced Ivy League education by chance ? Apparently, you can hide your LSAT score and the grades. Not to mention your birth certificate or certificate of live birth (what's the diff...

    Cutting the deficit

    [b]You have to have something to tax, and that is the entire point.[b] If you pay out more in one month in public assistance than a typical Mexican family takes in during an entire calendar year there will be no tax returns. And they don't even have much more than a third grade education and...

    There are actually some really big, very successful traders who search out certain topics and forums but they never post. I have taken some on as clients - typically they have like nine posts and they joined in like 2003. The only way I became aware was because of my client business. It's too...

    Cutting the deficit

    Well, the Nordic (Sweden) or Western European (German) or Asiatic (Japan) model won't work for the United States because of the heavy entitlement load from existing illegals and an ever-expanding class of citizens who draw benefits to cover every aspect of their living expenses and have no...
