How to fix all of our deficits and obligations? Man charged $23 quadrillion for smokes Posted 7/15/2009 4:31 PM | MANCHESTER, N.H. (AP) — A New Hampshire man says he swiped his debit card at a gas station to buy a pack of cigarettes and was charged over 23 quadrillion dollars. Josh...

I've rarely seen people who "bought a few licenses" that were hundreds to thousands just for the sake of owning them. you thought you needed a diff one on each computer? sheesh... bootleg or your own site, pick one. Your story holds as much water as an overloaded sponge.

+1. Backtesting is mostly good for predicting the past. I have seen so many people (ET is just one place) where newbies run around with excitement, because they finally have a successful backtest. Then they walk forward a week in the market, and think their "ship has come in." Unfortunately...

A compendium of most of the OP's recent posts. I view the market as a market of buyers and sellers. So, for me, I tend to think that for my buy to be profitable, I have to either buy before everyone else and/or make sure that there are a sufficient amount of buying after me to be profitable...

I suspect that if you could do a well-done study comparing their forecasts to what actually happened, over a long enough period of time, they would turn out mostly a random walk down wall street...

They say that advice is worth what you pay for it...

WP is just a number. It is mostly based on a trader's money management, rather than its profitability. If you take small losses you generally have low WP. If you take large losses, you generaly have a higher WP. But this has nothing to do with a system's value. Profit Factor tells you how...

Then that leaves you are the site owner, trying to sell copies. Bootleg or your site, those are the most likely realities. Your story of "I bought a few" doesn't wash with "my buddy backed out."

Sorry, but I read every one of the OP's posts, and it is mostly fluff and opinion. And there is no proof he is successful other than him starting a thread. You have a serious case of #6, below... Terrified that the goose that lays the golden eggs will go away. I have news for you. This...

Quote from rubibond007: Transportation system in europe is more advanced than here n the US, In europe you don't need autos to move, here in the US if you don't have a car, you're death. We could use a lot better public transportation system in the US, in the populated areas. Many people...

The world record holders of MPG build cars extremely low to the ground - the driver is almost always driving on his back. Unfortunately, a car that low to the ground is an extreme death trap. Nice to get 150mpg, until you wake up from a coma 3 months after someone ran over you, only to...

These kind of names are almost a dime of dozen. You can go into places that sell "Expired Domains" and look up ones that others abandoned. Takes a lot of patience, but several word good domains are available. And if not, these registrars will slap on "MY" or something on it, to suggest things...

Unlikely. People in China, India and other countries are discovering cars faster than the west will improve MPG... Think about the sub $3000 car Tata is putting out. Imagine that getting throughout India and other lower income countries. But I do agree we should put heavy taxes on fuel...

is this your journal? or are you looking for everyone to post their forex trades?

In a place that you said has minimal value (ET)... and that you said provided boredom... and given the fact that you are pretty anonymous... and that we get a lot of paper traders that claim to be special why do you think "Professional Trader" applies to you? and why do people so...

I will try this again: That had nothing to do with it. If you did not try the same system, then your experience had nothing to do with mine. I did not trade the signals with $$$ and there was no slippage involved. In other words, you did not trade the system I looked at. As I said before...

1) There is no way under heaven a sane person purchases "a few." You just happened to have a few thousand $$$ sitting around, to purchase licenses at regular price and hope to sell at the same price you got them for? And hoped "a few" people would buy them from a total stranger? What kind of...

Results are the only thing of use. Once you leave it out, there is nothing here to comment on. It is one more of a million various ideas floated by people, that almost always, does not really work.

winning% does not mean anything. It is a stat that newbies cling to. PF means how much $$$ did I win over how much $$$ did I lose? Most of what WP tells you, is contained in PF. A knowledgeable trader will subtract ALL commissions and slippage from "wins" if doing any kind of backtest...

Try diong a search on some of this stuff on youtube, concentrating on people who have a fair number of ratings and at least 3.5-4 stars.
