Quote from shortie:
Perelman-Shortie Uncertainty indicator went silent at the open. So, NO Short call for today.
Darn, yesterday it let me down.
I personally have a Long bias short-term but used yesterday's warning to seriously hedge my long position. Yes, it was a premature call but it was the correct thing to do. You can't get them all.
Quote from Tsing Tao:
Even if I were to waste my time doing anything with you, it would be a no-win situation. If you lost, you'd justify all sorts of reasons why you lost and never admit to anything. If you won, you'd ra-ra it until the end of time. I've seen all the evidence of your humility many times before in your hilariously horrendous threads.
When I make a bad trade, I admit so and cut my losses. I'm human, it happens (quite a lot more than I want, but that's why we work to improve).
But if you truly insist on being an ass (shocker) then take the other side of the trade I posted in the forex forum several days ago.

Quote from Locutus:
That's right. Too bad u wuz wrong.
By the way EUROPE EUROPE EUROPE!
Just saying, it will probably be the "theme" of the next leg up. Absolutely nobody is overweight Europe anymore these days, totally unjustified given that Europe always lags the US economy so the meat of its recovery should be just around the corner. The last "theme" was QE/US recovery so the US outperformed and before that it was EM's. Now it'll probably be "Hey, Europe aint so bad if you kinda ignore PIIGS" (which by the way is perfetcly reasonable). Alternatively it will be Japan's rebound but I find that less likely and one can have multiple themes.
Not to mention that the Euro isn't going down any time soon despite all the pikers calling for parity and also not to mention the fact that valuations are still a lot more attractive down here than on the US stock indices.

Quote from tradingjournals:
If one excludes Germany, Poland, Turkey and Russia, it is over for western europe: older population, no colonies to exploit as in the past, debt, talent leaving overseas, immigrants not integrated, a dozen languages, no strategic natural resources.....
Quote from deadbroke:
Tsing Tao,
One other thing - to make this worthwhile for the both of us there's gotta be a prize - I'll let you decide how high you want to go - I'll start with USD 10k that must be posted in advance to Baron with a letter from attorney bla bla - Baron pays the winner, no questions asked.
I'll be happy to sign such an agreement.
best of luck![]()
Quote from deadbroke:
I DON'T trust anybody's trade that is not posted within 60 seconds of entry or exit with all other factors such as STOPs etc. also posted within the 60 second mark.
ET is loaded to the hilt with vague trades.
Furthermore, by giving the account info to BARON we ensure that it is a LIVE trading venue.
Remember, you get to pick the instrument - we can negotiate on which instrument because its possible that I might not have the data or in some cases such as options, I don't trade those. But this is easily handled if you trade currencies.
As an example we could go with the universal EurUsd.
Come on man, step up to the plate.
I don't have a problem giving name, dob, SS#, account #, starting amount and finally a letter from the broker accounting office directly to BARON. I can authorize it easily.
If you need time to get other affairs in life in order that's fine - when we go at it, let's not have any life's circumstances as possible excuses.
The one-shot 3-month deal settles it permanently. NO replays.
