    Remedial Math Question

    I got that part with Kap's equation. Thanks. The issue is that I don't know the x or y for the extended points so I can't solve the equation. I only know that the x and y should end up being 100 (or some number) units/pixels away. I am thinking I need to use some form of the Pythagorean...

    Remedial Math Question

    I saw this during my google searches I've been doing all day looking for the answer. Fortunately, there is a function I can use to draw a line so I don't have to go to this low-level. Unfortunately, I don't have the endpoints so I can't call the function.

    Remedial Math Question

    I am embarrassed that I don't know this, but it has been years since I took these types of math classes. I want to programmatically draw a line through two points, but these points are not the end points. I want the line to extend through these points by a certain length on either end, say...

    Mini Dow Simulator??

    35 trades a day making $175 means $5/trade. That's not that good, especially if you haven't yet factored in commissions.

    You're Invited

    Nice work! So, judging from the email address, it's our friend from this thread. The thing that tipped me off was I remember that this person's first post was on the day that the other one got banned. It was asking why the banned person's email address wasn't working (another chance to post...

    coments on david landry trading style

    I think it was worth the money. I made a lot of trades based on the setups in his book and it paid for itself many times over.

    double standard - bodies of saddam's sons

    From what I've read, the point of posting the photos is because people in Iraq were afraid that the sons were not really dead. So it seems different to me than the videos of the American soldiers.

    Make $ w/ $2,000?

    It is very difficult to make money when you can only buy 25 or 50 shares of something. You need it to go up $1 or $2 just to make $50 or $100. With the risk of holding for a couple of days while you wait for those moves, you are facing a daunting task. You should save up until you have...

    Greenleaf's Journal

    Hi AAA, Thanks for posting. I got sick of having to predict the market a day in advance because of having to keep positions open for at least one overnight. Although the advice posted by easyguru is outstanding and would probably give me better odds of success, I've been working hard...

    Reading the archives...

    It is amazing going back through the old threads on ET. Lots of info, no flames. Moderators must have had it easy back then. Here's one for example about e-minis: http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1797

    Greenleaf's Journal

    Hi easyguru. Thanks for posting here and taking the time to look at the charts. I would agree with you that I would not want to be in most of these for more than a short time. I am just looking to get 70 or 80 cents or maybe $1 out of my picks right now. $200-$300 a trade. These charts...

    Greenleaf's Journal

    I had a corporate account with Ameritrade until they started classifying it as a professional account, meaning huge data access fees, etc. Did you run into that? I feel horrible if you bought GRP based on what I posted here. It really did look good to me, and it did break out a bit...

    Finally, ADIC. I like the looks of the chart and am glad I'm short. Another evening doji star (if you can call that bar from yesterday a doji). I know I certainly wouldn't feel good being long in this one right now.

    VRSN looks like a good short right now, especially with the gap down today. I entered when it broke through the bottom of the bar from two days ago. I'll move my mental stop to break even tomorrow morning so as not to let it turn into a loser and hope it continues to fall.

    WDC is the one I'm least comfortable with of the five. When I entered, it was a nice long red candle at the low of the day. We will see what happens tomorrow.
