    MCD - overdone on the upside ?

    Tim Seemore of Fast Money fame indicates this as a short. However, it was just upgraded to 130 and 135. What say ye ? Are the other competitors better shorts ? WEN, QSR, YUM ? All have taken pretty good hits this year.

    EWT would indicate this move up is wave #4. Accordingly we have one more big one on the downside below 1820.

    The biggest news EVER to hit EliteTrader

    All in all, I think it is a very solid program...much better than the standard prop firms of the past which were very sleazy and shady. Think: Brendan Burns and Barclay Trading...what a scam that was.

    Excel Trading right from Spreadsheet?

    Beware: This still requires heavy enhancements like circular buffers to be able to look-back at prices and develop moving averages, etc. Platforms like Multicharts and Tradestation have this built-in already.

    Platform Upgrade for Automated Trading

    Platform Upgrade for Automated Trading

    What exactly is multicharts missing ? re: "lacking robustness" Many backtesters aren't accurate for the reason of using bars....and they are not able to indicate which occurred first: the high or the low.

    Spot the Bear. Weekly chart analysis of S&P500

    Hmmmm....so you hold the options till they expire ? So your loss is limited to the premium and your profits must be greater than the premium to generate a net profit ?

    Spot the Bear. Weekly chart analysis of S&P500

    Thanks for that...interesting. This seems to mimic a break-out system...which usually have a good win percentage,...but not so hot profit amount. Where do you close ? At the next bar with a different color ? Or do you have a profit target based on the range of the 3 soldier bars ?

    "Bill Gross thinks things are about to get so bad..."

    And if Eric inherited Gross's personality, then he would kill himself. It's not just about the amount of money you know. Once you have enough, why ruin yourself trying for more ?

    "Bill Gross thinks things are about to get so bad..."

    Bill Gross....once great (and lucky), is now disgraced. That happens a lot when you have an ego uncontrolled. Stem your ego's boys, and you'll be honored AND you will succeed. That's the best outcome. One who comes to mind is Eric Bowling. Wow, this guy was a phenomenal oil trader....with a...

    Betting on a Crash With Options

    Talk like this tells me we are about to go UP. Now if this thread had occured 3 weeks ago, it would have a ton of credibility. I think it's too late. Holy smokes...premiums on put options are "thru the roof".
