Trader I hear ya...I can also see its not the wonderful looking H&S pattern when taking a look at the bar chart. However the beauty of the line charts is they really hide the noise well and let you see what subtle moves have already occurred without all the noise. In the past however I have...

I am seeing so many threads after a day like today stating that the markets are going to come back on Monday or overall and run back up to 14K. I am also reading about how the markets will fall out of bed this week etc etc. Here is a weekly chart of the Dow showing the Head and Shoulders...

Hi, was wondering if anybody had any updates as to whether or not the NYSE would be closing any day next week in honor of President Ford? Thanks.

Thanks pabst for that answer..yes I meant to say 500 spy vs the es mini...my brain was thinking the nq as I typed it. Excellent answer I appreciate it.

If it is the case that the time value decays on the futures vs cash. Then wouldnt it be a profitable trade to do the following: Go Long 800 SPY and Short 1 ES mini at the start of the new contract month and close out as the spread narrows towards the end of the contract period?

To begin with when we rollover to the next quarters future contract (lets use ES mini for example) the premium of the ES mini is usually about 10 points above cash. My question then is, what if in a totally hypothetical scenario you purchased the ES mini at 10 points premium to cash (aka the...

Thanks for the reply Chuck, would you be able to answer here in the forum why there are no alerts on the software after over a year since Quotrek has been out. I know that alerts were offered on the old Quotrek over 10 years ago, and I also know its a very easy addition to the software. I...

Would really like to hear from those who have used either software. (Quotrek or Hillcast) I have spoken with salespeople from both companies, I was surprised to find out that Quotrek limits you to 45 quotes, and the worst part is they don't offer alerts! I was shocked to hear such a thing...

Would that be the amount your willing to lose each trade or the amount of total capital you would place on each trade?

Hi, I wanted to get the opinion of the members here on what kind of risk they would be willing to take per trade on an account of 500k. Lets assume the account will trade 100% in equities only. Furthermore, what types of strategies would you employ the maximize usage of the 500K over a years...

This is also another possiblity as well. Sittas is entirely correct make sure you dont just have 5 days on as that will do what he says if its a daily chart view.

Hi, I may have the solution to your problem concerning the width of your candlestick charts. Right click on the chart and then go to display. In the display menu you will notice a box entilted "per width" set that to "1" if it is not currently. Click Ok and you hopefully should have the...

Guys I have only one thing to say if you don't believe me. EARLY APRIL FOOLS! Yes there is no 1000 shares of IBM from 1947 geez you guys are right if there were I would be worth about 150 million dollars in market value today! Didnt mind having some fun with my good friends at ET as I...

Hi, I recently just ended up with a windfall shares of IBM from a relative of mine that passed away last week. I had no idea that I was even in the will. When they read the will they said to me that I was to receive the original certificate of my Great Uncle's 1000 IBM. So I did the math real...

I am curious are we talking about the Garry Smith that writes for the The Street.com website? If so has he ever posted his account statements to verify his records since he is asking others to do the same? If it is this guy from the The street.com then he has a newsletter service that he hawks...

Well it is the case that Long John Silvers will be offering free Giant Shrimp to everybody on what day I dont know. It was contigent upon the Rover finding any evidence of water on the Planet Mars. So free Shrimp for America!

This is fun guys. Let me post my trades too. I broke even today by the way not a real exciting day at all for me kinda silly and sloppy. Here ya go anyway maybe someone can get something out of it who the hell knows.

Ahh I see I didnt realize speakingout had done that to Mecro. Ok well speakingout is then in the wrong as well. Anyway as you say onwards and upwards with this thread just good to see your alive Richtrader. Peace.

Richtrader this is your response to Speakingout clearly stating that he will comply with your way of wanting to run this thread. Instead what has happened is that you have not been around, and Speakingout has not bothered the spammer in question and yet the spammer in question has continued to...

Mecro I have been reading these posts of yours. Why is it that you continue to come back to this thread? Why don't you just ignore this thread if as you say, "you don't care if this guy Anthony is real or not anymore"? Instead you post yet again, only to now call the statement a forgery! You...
