Being a very rash and impulsive guy has gotten me into loads of trouble trading. A stock is exploding...HEY, I want in! Top tick...smoked! I tried some sort of NLP stuff, mostly just meditation, a kind of reprogramming of my instincts. I'm still pretty impulsive in life, but have developed...

The thing about ethanol is that it's a negative energy source, which means it takes more energy to produce than is available in the end use. The cheapest way to obtain hydrogen is through natural gas steam reforming, again we are back to fossil fuels...the problem in the first place.

Thats hilarious! As we work our butts off to wrestle some money out of the markets, we should be singing praise to the specialists! They have been providing market liquidity at their expense for the last 100 years! LMAO.

Thanks for the input. I am working on several different ways to overcome this problem. Probably ridding my self of coffee might help, I try pre-market meditation, but it is tough in a room with 150 people. Don't know if I will go the drug route, but I have seriously considered tossing my TV...

On some slow days, I have serious trouble watching the markets for al ong period of time. Does anyone else have this problem? I do think that this a legite thread considering...

...is essential to the developement of self. Any of those concepts, may it be scientology, NLP, self-hypnosis or whatever, should be observed as a model. Simply for the same reason that we would not stake every bit of our money on a trade because of a favorable model, would it be wise to...

I am at Spectrum, and have been here for about 8 months. There is no up front capital, no paid training, (the training is a joke BTW), 8/10ths per share before breakpoints, 25%gross plan, and 70%net. The risk management has changed, and they are a little tight with large positions. You can...

I swapped emails with Farmer a while back and he mentioned that company is alive and well, and more importantly, making money. Does anyone have a link to the full paper? I couldn't find it on the Sante Fe Institute's website. Thanks

I vote Rudy's, keep the hotdogs and pitchers coming, my good man...

is this crap any better?

yeah, our pofits were cut in half too, especially on the OPG short side. I would have sold my leftie for a bullet today or yesterday...

I was on a good roll for a few months, and then lost it. I know exactly what I am doing wrong: I lost the nerve to remain in a position, and have faith in my trade, when it goes against me even the slightest bit. I've become more impulsive and impatient. Any advice on this?

been playing in and out of bands for 13 years, all styles, lots of improv. I play a Warwick Corvette 4.

Our CTO is a former specialist, and we gave him hell, briefly, until we figured out what great insight he had for us. CFC=BRUTAL HOMEBUILDERS=EVIL DNA=SHAKEOUT/GAP MASTER

than market makers, but they obviously need to be more strictly regulated.

These guys clearly have a conflict of interest when trying to make a fair and orderly market, and at the same time trading for their own best interest. While elimination would cause the same issues encountered in trading the NASDAQ, they have to be regulated somehow. These guys are crooks...

Discipline and Patience. In their most raw sense, they are important, but can be dissected and applied to many aspects of personality.

This could be way off base, but don't you think the NYSE markets at least will remain psychological when the liquidity is in the hands of a human being, rather than an automated system. There has to be a conflict of interest when he is supposed to facilitate the market, and has personal...

.. for the specialist's salary! Seriously, even as a new trader, I don't have any money to give but there are ways to donate your time. I'm currently trying to volunteer as a cook for a homeless shelter, it's not much, but it's something.
