    What percentage of "trading services" are a scam?

    Your poll is most like something from a person on the outside looking in. Often journalists do research and post articles on trading. The magazines carry articles month after month and year after year. Again, it is like they are outside looking in. What do you think your experience wolud...

    line charts

    Sorry I thought you were trading something that you had set up. hardly anyone uses pre PC defaults anymore since the invention of the PC. There was a compression of cycling once electronic data feeds were made visible and real time.

    line charts

    You are bridging with two of yours and have no signal line on the third. On some of your charts you merge RTH with other hours. Why cut the feed from 4pm to 7am? Why not just use RTH to keep your indicators functional?

    hi malaka, In my opinion SD ranks lowest and Vegas ranks highest. NYC is in between. There were several killer workshops in SD. There was lots of humor as well. I took about a pad of notes a day to glean where various people and presenters were coming from. For me, audience...

    as a result of looking at all your charts, I have some questions. I decided to ask if you were up for questions before asking any. Sometimes people do not like to deal with questions so I thought I would ask first. If it is okay for me to ask you questions, let me know.
