i personally think the term verbal diarrhea is used far too infrequently.
I went on vacation an forgot about this thread.
I must say I respectfully disagree with my colleagues, Prof and Walter.
Hypo and all his friends are the most interesting read in this forum by and large.
It's sad when people can't enjoy a little bit of irony, sarcasm, a bit of historical whiffs and satire coupled with their extraordinary writing ability....not to mention the subtle trading education....
Where the hell is Christopher Columbus when you need him?

My dear Cassie, you do the Hershey Spiders much injustice. They bring to us a new generation of traders, a new generation in traders, as in fruit flies, being measured in days. As they say in NLP, "the map is not the territory", and I for one am supremely happy that the Hersheians are obliterating reality with broad multi-hued crayon strokes and imagined landscape features as fanciful as gargoyles. The mere recorded sound of Jack gargoyling as he Pied Piper's the local faithful sends me into orgasmic (Magosmic?) sarcasms. Oh, would they only come play on my turf! But NQ is beneath their indignity it seems. Such a pity, as it would be a great pleasure to watch cruel market makers wreak havoc on their Ptolemaically Aristotelian trading theories.
I am minded, Art, of another delusion I had previously unminded. That is the delusion, extraordinarily popular among the crowd of novice traders, that intuitive trading is superior to rule-based trading. Mayhap that is because they are so young that they still resent rules, or perhap because they are incapable of formulating, much less following, one. We saw the hapless Hypostomus search vainly, like Demosthenes, for an honest rule in the Jack Spyder thread. Alas it seems that they, like women, make up the rules as they go. He hath no need of rules who has brilliant insights into the market. And they have no comprehension that to name a thing diminishes it because naming overcategorizes. Also they forget that markets exist to TAKE, not MAKE money. Hence their vocabulary is absent the magic words TEST and SHAKEOUT. I quit posting to your thread because the madness is extraordinarily clearer over there.
