a rebuttal to ET 'doom & gloomers': Trading Opportunities could NOT BE BETTER!!!...there has been so much 'doom and gloom', "the sky is falling" posting here lately...there could not be BETTER trading opportunities in the market now...consider this:
1-so the market tanks...go short!
2-want variety...try options, stocks, FTF's, futures, emini indexes, commodities (gold, oil, Bonds etc.)
3-I am excited as I look forward to next week to trade...research all the stuff over the weekend...not concerned over any economic numbers...I can win over this through strategic trading...
4-change your thinking from 'glass half empty' to 'glass half full'
5-there are literally thousands of trading opportuinties out there...do your research and if need be...SHORT the whole market...BUT...remember this...YOU ARE NEVER, NEVER, EVER AT THE MERCY OF A FALLING MARKET...WHETHER IT IS THE DOW, OIL, BONDS, US DOLLAR ETC....JUST FLOW WITH IT!!!
...the sun is rising!!!..the clouds are leaving!!
Quote from Specterx:
There is a difference between saying economic or market conditions are bad in the sense of a falling market, econ numbers etc. and saying that the market can't be traded.
Obviously it can be traded under any circumstances, and imo bigger intraday swings are better.
Quote from day7793:
Trading for scalps and morsels. A nickel here a nickel there. A daytraders doggy dog world that promises to add losses and close accounts under 6 months.
Quick scalping, a nervous and anxiety prone day. There is no wealth and prosperity in this. You make nothing , you sit there for rallies to materialize and sell into strength at the first signs of pops and run to the hills. Most of the money is parked in your 2-3 % paying CDS and money market accounts. You can't even turn the key in your locks. You tell me you know trading? I am in the markets from morning to closing bell, and I see your weak antics, and you call this trading?
Quote from Specterx:
I don't know - considering all the time you waste spamming the ET boards with complaints about the falling market, seems to me that your days are far more anxiety-filled than mine![]()
If you are in fact holding long term positions, I'd suggest basing your investments on something besides blind faith that the market always goes up.
Quote from day7793:
,
I have liquidated everything. I mean who would own stocks long in this doom and gloom ? Who would want to be wealthy and prosperous? Who would look for long term wealth building > I mean who should trust his own money with these Wall street pin striped bandits?
Now I am a scalper like you are, daytrading, working for nickles and dimes, scalp here, scalp there, penny here, penny there, churning accounts, waiting for rallies on the horizon, selling into strength, and than running to the hills, always whimpering like a rabbit before the lions roar.
I am just like you, and a step ahead of your dark depressed shadow....
When exactly will your book be published? That's the only reason for possibly starting all these never ending threads, research. Perfect, Tim Sykes is on CBS sunday morning as I type this, fits....lolQuote from increasenow:
