"All traders are the same. you want to buy at the low, sell at the high, do it three times as large, and quit at the top."

What if I want to sell at higher high, and buy at a higher low.
 
Quote from Triple X:

Why are you posting that you are long when you are short? :eek: :eek: :eek:
I guess I have been reading this thread too long. It is not that hard to follow Spectre (if you have the inclination to do so).
With appropriate deference to Heisenberg, I may be changing his behavior by identifying it. Generally speaking: when he posts simple and straightforward then that is a real position, but when his posts are relatively over-the-top then you know the position referred to is facetious.

e.g.
Straightforward:
"watch for washout sale day in indexes"

over-the-top:
" going to wear my dow 14k hat...
i'm going to get long to the full hilt
no stops on this one"
 
Quote from Spectre2007:

another 10 basis, is overhead resistance on the 10 year. Notice how all the bond market trends are sellside in orientation(yields bound to head higher).

notes broke into the 109 handle..dec contract..equity traders running for cover....woo hoo..

see I can move the bond market..just by posting a simple chart.
 
Quote from Spectre2007:

long 42 SL 32...TP 52...

This is over the top? Wearing heisenberg cape at the time?

This is not my thread, nor do I frequent it. Maybe there is a rule on page 1...

But post your trades or don't post...laughtrack with it, something...:confused:

any posted trade, whether it is loosing or winning has value as a reference point.. a loosing trade has just as much informational value as a winning trade. Take advantage of it.

trades are similar to bouncing a ball at the wall.

it`s more of a matter of it being a legitimate trade at all......i just don`t see the point in all the double talk & pointless rants jamming up a good thread while serious traders trade & newbies like princessa,saliva & saxon try & learn from us....it`s more of a distraction than anything else.
spec,you do post decent info from time to time so don`t take it personally but i just don`t see the point in it at all......there is no shame in sticking your neck out & being wrong on a call.....seems like your always on the fence not wanting to be wrong.
good trading....:)
 
I'm wrong quite a few times. But I will stop posting false trades.

the last time I was wrong was on fomc day on the yield curve play. But no loosers since then. Every ES trade since then was a winner. :)

I basically gambled on the FED 25/50 cut, and gambling in the long run doesn't pay.
