    Another Pervert Republican Exposed...

    Its still illegal. The simple act of engaging in sexually explict conversations online with a minor is a felony and can get you several years in prison. It does not have to go any further than the message exchange. Brandon

    Similarity between the Crusades and today's religious wars

    I have been saying this forever now about the parallels between the two. Its very scary when you think about it what the implications are. People keep telling me I'm nuts, and maybe I am but in any case I'm happy to see there is another "nut" who agrees with me. Personally I see the relationship...

    Mental break-down from TA

    I have not taken the time to bother reading what others have said, so if this is just a repeat please feel free to ignore it. You are not looking at enough timeframes, but you are looking at way too much shit on the timeframes you are looking at. Each one of the indicators you are looking at are...

    Bloomberg or CNBC

    I have just had some family stuff come up which has forced me to come back to Iowa to help my dad out for awhile and they do not have either Bloomberg or CNBC on cable TV here. Is anyone aware of a place I can find either on the web to play them during the day on my computer. Thanks. Brandon

    NBTY Inc (NTY) is a leading stock in the very strong Cosmetics and Personal Care market sector. I have always subscribed to the theory that stocks move very much like schools of fish, so if you find a sector that has several names acting well that is likely to continue and you are likely to see...

    Israeli army chief sold stocks hours before war

    Unfortunatly it works out to be the same thing. I have watched this war and could not believe that Isreal fought a war with both hands tied behind its back. I do not think it will bode well for them in the future as it will give the folks in their neighborhood the impression that maybe this time...

    I have now been trading professionally for slighty over a decade, 6 years trading privatly, 4 years trading other peoples money and my own and just recently having started up my hedge fund. Most people do not last even one year, and I came very close to being part of that statistic by not...

    For the last several months my message has been very consistant: PRESERVE CAPITAL. In the market there are various times when you want to be aggressive and go for the throat, but there are also times that the best thing to do is roll over and play dead. The preservation of capital is important...

    Update: None of the long idea's from yesterday gave valid entry setups. The closest to doing so would have been the Euro, but due to the gap we put in place the 30 minute rule, and that market never took out its 30 minute highs. On the short side a few setup. BA, WMT and GOOG all gave valid...

    When most people look at the market they check to see what the major indexes did, and maybe what volume was like. From this they draw their conclussions. If you look at the major indexes yesterday you would conclude that nothing happened, after all the DOW closed the day with a modest loss of 2...

    Pre-1982 pennies now contain 2.41 cents worth of copper.

    I was reading some mafia book once and they talked about Joe Colombo. They FBI got him all bugged out and he formed the Italian American Civil rights group because they arrested one of his sons for melting down US Currency for metal. So, at least back in the 60's or 70's in theory it was...

    If the $500K to $1mm hit will kill you, or cause your wife to do so for you, then maybe you should not keep it in there, or if the thought of potentially losing it is keeping you up at night you should not. But most guys who are making serious money carry far more than the insured amounts in...

    'Idiot-Savant' Traders?

    Interesting. One of my friends wives is a clinical psychologist and she has always said that she figured I have Asperger. I took the survey for myself and scored 36, Toni took it on her perception of me and scored a 34 for me. I would agree with what most of RM has said that it rather sucks...
