A "reply" to a study saying BLAH BLAH BLAH has about as much use as a cup of snow in a blizzard. Elliot Wave has also failed when thoroughly studied, so I really don't care WHAT Prechter thinks.

Against the trend needs larger stops than with the trend, because countertrend trading IS picking a top or bottom and the market usually continues to drift at least SOME with the prevailing trend. There is some wisdom in dumping your trades into a spreadsheet, and drawing a line where a...

Yes. If it weren't for you, many would-be traders would hang on longer before failing. Thanks to you, Jack, they are put through the wringer of your overly lengthy and confusing "training" materials over months of agonizing suffering to ENSURE they fail in the longterm.

Any time a customer has margin issues, then I think it is hardly any right to question how the broker liquidates. They make it clear they are aggressive. IB is ultra conservative. That is why I like them.

Isn't that what I said??? There is no point spreading unless you have some basis for outperformance. "properly anticipating" is an EDGE. Then it makes sense. Again, random spreading without an edge has no value

Just roll your 401K into an IRA, and problem gone. Why is this hard?

Not to mention their penchant to cheat...

one has to wonder why in ANY company, why large trades are not double or triple cross checked by unrelated departments. Simple logic: If trade exceeds $$X, departments B, H, and Q must all sign off...

Well, at least you established that you are useless to the economy. But based on your attitude, it is highly unlikely you are rich, except in your feeble mind. One more idiot for the IGNORE pile.

It is called "geometric growth" If one netted 10% a month, then as long as one is not trading extremely illiquid instruments, next month is 11%, then 12.1%. etc... Also, it depends on one's bank account. 10% monthly on $200,000 would exceed most salaried positions. And further, if...

There is no point spreading unless you have some basis for outperformance. If you think tech will outperform the general market, than you go long NQ and short another index like SP. I don't think shorting a market index against itself will have much value. You do that for something like...

for 10% a month, why trade? :D

I wonder whether those who say "tax the rich" realize that the rich are the ones who generally create almost all the new jobs? How often does an electrician's apprentice start a new software firm that employs 100 high paid professionals, greatly adding to the economy??? How many new jobs...

Try NJ or CT...Good luck FINDING a house for $227,000. And then, you should see the property taxes on a STARTER home.

A) At any one moment, the market is always the best indicator of the value of something. Everyone else's prediction is only a guess, and can be dismissed. Goldman said Oil was going to $200. A few weeks later, now they think $50. B) This line was the only useful one from the website...

Still waiting for the "bullshit". The GDPs were accurate. The maps were accurate. Do you just like to dismiss things because it makes you feel better? Or are you dyslexic and read things backwards???

I believe I also did a Complain button. But that does not always work here

You claim to be a Pension Administrator, but you don't know what alpha is? And you cannot find its meaning? I found the meaning after a 20 second google search Sad. Really Sad...

I count 15 consecutive posts to himself since my last post to him (I cannot account for idiots I have on ignore). That reminds me of the homeless people in the park, who you see talking to themselves. Is he Cold/C-kid/trader28 mixed with Stock_Trad3r? Why should people thank someone who...
