Don't use it all. 2k and rest in CD. You can learn cheap in this market and still make decent money if you're good. You need a cushion for 2-3 blow-outs.

That works too bud. Fixed anything. $$$, ticks, whatever. heck, you could base them off of what your target expectations are too but that's got it's own problems. Ideally, you want to base it on volatility, but whether you have it too close or too large is relative to whether those...

It's probably the commissions that are killing you. I had the same thing happen to me. Textbook. I switched from no realized commissions to huge ones and it changed my whole game. Ran the numbers and realized my size wasn't big enough. Since I don't want more risk I actually switched...

Ok that's sweet. Now where's the dollar bottom? And next time don't end your stupid post with a link.

Yeah when's the dollar bottom. Should I ask him? Maybe his words weren't wise enough because I still have a few unanswered questions (most of which you kindly brought up). On a side note CAL, EAT, DRI, ABCW, MI seem like good catalysts for something.

Ok so where's the dollar going to bottom. What price? You explained something I already know....I'm willing to accept it's going to last. Now here's your task. Tell me when and where that POS bottoms out.

Can you please not advertise your shitty blog in my thread? Thanks.

yesterday was a nice try.

This is my opinion and this is for serious discussion. But we have some weakened fundamentals now and a catalyst for this fall (first in a while). Keep this discussion as technical as possible and friendly too. No garbage posting. If you don't have anything constructive to say don't...

Yup. This is a cycle top as well so candle with resistance is a very high percentage trade. Anything above this high today would violate it of course but it's better using a fixed $$$ stop in this case. Also, we need to hold this top for 2 days. A drastic sell-off is going to leave the FED...

Horrible candle. Restaurants and airlines going into that group too.

Retail banks are a mess.

Whew almost let that one slip by. :D

lol

I'm almost positive I have a strategy they didn't test. Remember 60% expectancy + positive W/L $ amount is all you need. Although getting an edge reliable enough to do it is a PITA it can be done. Certain aspects of TA has already been proven in other research as well. I'm sure...

Huge flaw in this analysis. They've got plenty more to go. Certain TA should only be tested @ certain points or market levels. There's absolutely NO WAY to accurately test whether TA works in general. These guys are kidding themselves.
