Massive leverage and luck can be, well, both a blessing and a curse. In the last two years, we saw a massive bull market and I doubt any long-term bulls got hurt since a rising tide lifts all boats. Just sitting on your ass long enough would have made you money. So I would say that dude was...

Bad timing

Long 3780 St 3773

Last time I heard, Rentech is located somewhere in California, and it ain't "small".

LOL, good one. :D

At one time in 2000 (2001?), Amazon was trading under $50. Who woulda thought a "bookseller" would become the king of the market?

That might be true in the real economy, but in the market everything is connected and they affect one another. It's called "intermarket analysis".

Oh, so you were there in 2000? Raping eternal bulls who thought "it's different this time" was the best of times. :D

Why did ES gap down so much this morning? Damn, 111 point drop from the previous close and 41 points from the open. How much of that did you siphon off? :D

A noob question: If the trading strategies are auto-generated, is that being produced for each trade or for the entire trading period, be it a day or a month (namely, is it static or dynamic)? That said, do you know or does anyone know a way to have the ML auto-generate an algo on a "per...

Political lobbying, perhaps? By the same token, shouldn't the SEC have banned HFTs from front-running everyone else's order by now? No, never. Because they know leveling the field makes the so-called "smart money" look not so smart in the end.

Does this guy have any resemblance to that dude from "Why is Obvious Not So Obvious?"

It all comes down to this IMO. 1) Is free commission important for you? Then go with the PFOF. 2) Is faster execution, eg. little to no slippage, more important for you? Then go for the full-commission trade.

I agree. It's 100% fact-checked true. :) But in terms of predicting a "range", I don't think there's anything more simple than Darvas Box.

Unless one has a crystal ball, nobody really knows for certain. But something like Darvas Box is a good tool to utilize for beginners IMO.

From what I've been reading, the big boys on Wall Street are buying with cash. They don't take out 30 year FHA loans like you or me.

How old are you? Why don't you be a little more empathetic? Not everyone's created equal and certainly aren't endowed with same IQ or capabilities. By the time you reach your parents' age, you might be treated as a old fart yourself by some young idiots around you.

So what's the final cost for ES? CME/NFA fee alone is $1.30, so that would bring the total cost to $2.80 per side. That doesn't sound like "deep discount" to me.

What really pisses me off to no end is these greedy miners don't give a crap about what they are doing will only speed up climate disaster that's underway.

I already see how this will pan out. Traders will all stand silently in the pit and exchange their orders with their phones. Say goodbye to shouts and hand gestures.
