the depth of the bid and the ask and to measure the trend nothing better than the eye ball.

I have a deep admiration for Niederhoffer, consider him to be a genius. The fact that he went belly-up and his been able to restablish his hedge fund makes him more admirable. This guy has been on top of the world and on bottom of the ladder and now his moving back to the top. Read his two...

I'm a little tired of commuting to NY, so I'm looking to move my business somewhere in the Connecticut area. I might trade from home, but I prefer to go to an office in order to stay away from bad habits.

After 11am I have found that the best 2 choices you have is either to look for stock for swing trades or find another job.

I never really understood the Williams % but I declare myself a big fan of the Williams A/D which I twisted a little bit and turned into a powerful indicator. I was a one trick pony making decent money scalping the NYSE and recently turned into a Swing Trader which is enjoying a hot streak...

Wish the best of lucks to Mr. Williams and I'm confident that he will be able to answer this allegations. I'm thankful with him because in his books I've found advice that I've been able to turn into money. Based on ideas that I took from "Secrets of Selecting Stocks..." I've build a swing...

Volatile an liquid markets will always offer better opportunities. I always avoid stocks that are like the Roach Motel, easy to get in and hard to get out, I guess that same applies on Commodities.

Is paradoxical to see how overvalued is the king of value investing.

maybe that explains why his returns have been so poor in the last years. Maybe the magic is gone, or maybe the value investing myth is not working lately. But what can you expect from a moron the has been bearish for so long on the economy of the most powerful nation?

What works in Trading? I'm still looking for that answer, but I think that the most successful speculators made their money betting against the ideas of the crowd. The successful speculator gets greedy when the herd is shocked by fear and gets scared when the herd is greedy. Markets have...

There is nothing more dangerous than common knowledge, not because an idea has been in use for 20 years it means it is accurate. Common knowledge doesn't make money in the markets. If markets were normally distributed that would mean that 68% of the data would be lie within 1 standard...

I Scalp the NYSE but I don't aim for 3 cent profits, I ride my winners until I have a reason to get out. Sometimes I've been able to catch a point move. With the losers I show no mercy. By the way, Taleb is wrong, the markets are neither random or normally distributed.

I guess that if you ask George Soros if has has made it he would answer NO. I have just moved to Connecticut and commute to the City every day and I agree with you, $100,000 is not enough, Manhattan is damn expensive. Even though I make decent money I travel with my own food, to lunch every...

I've been trading for 2 years and based on my stats I can say that I do well. Last year I generated a good income that provides a "quality" living for me and my wife. Unfortunately I can remember a single happy day, when I lose money I'm unhappy because I hate to lose money and when I make...

A agree with you, a have seen a few stocks that appear on top of the IBD 100 fall like a rock. I think that the leading cause is that growth stocks tend to be severly punished when they disappoint, even if the miss was of 1 cent. Thanks!

I've been scalping NYSE stocks for almost 2 years and I'm happy to say that I make a decent living on this. I consider myself to be a relatively good scalper, but when I buy to hold overnight things don't work for me. I'm good at recognizing very short-term situations, but I'm an awful swing...

there are many firms that allow you to open accounts with $5,000 while providing you a 20:1 leverage.

I trade the old NYSE, never touch the NASDAQ. I have never scalped the NASDAQ and I will like to see a NASDAQ scalper in action in order to understand how they do it. I get dizzy when I look at the Level II of the NASDAQ, is too fast for me.

The past few days have been tough for me, and for many of my Scalping fellows. I'm not finding many opportunities to make money, 3 or 4 cents per trade is the maximum profit I've been able to grab. Many people say that a scalper does well with a 3 cent profit, but make your numbers guys...

The NYSE won't miss you! Kind regards, PS
