That's an odd statement...coming from a certified drama queen.

Quote from Maverick74:

You know what's funny, how many guys who trade but fail to use what they know trading in real life. Romney is breaking out with momentum against Obama. If this were the Euro, you would buy it, not fade it. But your own emotional bias has you "wanting" to fade it. This is why it's so hard for most people to trade. They just can't trade what they "see", they have to trade what they "think".

Have to be careful against false breakouts.In the short term RCG's fade would have been profitable.Obama will win in 2012 if Romney is The GOPs guy so it would be profitable long term as well

I thought you recommended a buy when Romney was 6 points up ?

No, I linked this "exact" chart on the breakout. At no point over the last 6 months has Romney had a lead over Obama. He has been neck and neck. The breakout chart I posted was this same chart. And the rally continues. Don't fade it.

I don't know why the link doesn't show up. But here it is.

We both know that you have never placed a single trade in your life.

How you landed on ET is baffling. If you want to gloat about an election result that will not take place for 11 months you will only reinforce the common consensus that you are a bit of a cunt.

When you made this thread and recommended a buy Romney was 6 points up,now its even.In The short term that Romney drop would have been profitable on RCG's fade.It has yet to be seen if Romney wins then you would be right on a long term trade but on the day you said buy and RCG said fade RCG's trade would have been right on a short term swing trade

No, the trade I made and I even linked the chart on that post, look it up, was this last chart I posted. Romney may have been up in one of the polls, but in the composite of all polls he was never up an avg of 6 pts, he was in a statistically dead heat right where he is now. Nothing has changed.
