S&P about out of gas?

Agreed. When these threads are more about who can predict what, instead of how to navigate successfully and skillfully through the market, it becomes just another same old raging bullish, motley foolish, "this-baby's-going-to-the-moon", yahoo doofus type thread.
 
Quote from Manolo:

Let's cut all the BS. You know I don't trade? Then I definitely don't have an audited track record from 1996-on, that says i've made money each and every year. I'm betting 10K that I have this audit, and I want to use Inandlong as an intermediary. He's the only person of trust around here. Now put up your 10K, and i'll send my audit to Inandlong.

That's easy money for you, since you "know I don't trade."

And I don't need your commentary on stocks. If you have an audited track record that says you made money every year from 1996-, then i'll listen. Otherwise, I trounce you, so why would I listen to you??

Otherwise, shut yer yap, and get off this trading thread.

If you're so intent in waving your cock in public, James Stock, then simply produce the audit and send it to Frank... why the need for the wager? Is the $10k needed that badly?

Your latest lie was that you weren't Manolo, lo and behold...

If you send your illustrious (sic) audit to Frank, I will send my audited tax returns to Frank as well upon receipt of yours. I had mentioned I had started with less than $100k in the late 80's. No bet, simply PRODUCE. Otherwise, do us all a favor and go blow yourself...

Ever since the market started going up last year ET is starting to attract every charlatan-wannabe who found out there is a stock market, and thinks he can be the next superstar trader. Guys with a couple years experience or less are debating others like they have some great insight into markets and trading. Very doubtful! Just witness this thread! Silicon Investor seems to have more substance on most threads!

It starts off with someone posting about a reasonable subject, and then quickly deteriorates into a bunch of punks whipping it out, and comparing size. What a joke!! Like someone said on another thread: anyone who is 'actually' trading, and actually doing well, wouldn't bother posting any positions on ET much less debating whether to go long, short and the like. Just make the trade and profit. Why argue about it! And why attack someone else for their opinion? How trite! Let the market be the final judge.

This is sophomoric b.s. Period! :p

I can see why good guys leave, or post less. Gonna be more scare myself around here..... too many negative vibrations. :eek:

:cool:

Excellent post
 
Remember we had an even lower dip today for the year. Soon we might see an important 1100-test. Perhaps some news event even can make a 1100-breach a non-event. It's kinda scary.

All the bounces I'm seeing are less than convincing, the incremental increases on the SPX are really small, and the incremental decreases are bigger and come faster. We see no follow-through, and it's obvious we can still have some really good short setups - because it looks like we'll be testing new lows. ;-)

And the Nasdaq, NQ, SOX are just in tears.

It's rather easy to break down flawed arguments and logics of noisy posters, and trying to steer into more serious discussions again by always including something which actually is on topic, and trying not to take the flame-baits, but remember wear the handy flame-proof asbestos suit. That way, those who start becoming anti-social or similar, sooner or (a little) later will give up.

It's been this way since the start of USENET news and mail-list times. IRC is much worse, with demigod operators and nuke-ready punks with all kinds of hacks and scripts.
If you have used http://www.financialchat.com you'll know what I'm talking about. The Elitetrader forum is 1000x better, and actually enables you to make trades - and post/read messages.

Didn't you go through this already? You made the challenge, riskarb took it and then you never showed up? Then you made up lies.

Dude enough already. You're a joke.

No, your a joke. This means you're chicken. Come on loser, put up the 10K.

And while you're at it, I challenge you to find ONE time where I made an incorrect call. You said I'm batting 30%, so there must be many times I made an incorrect call. I challenge you to find ONE.

You're a complete loser, you lie and say I have made incorrect calls. And you lie and say I don't trade.

I'm calling you out, loser. Show me where I made an incorrect call, or bet me that I don't have an audit.

Or shut the hell up!

And you said you weren't going to post anymore.
Doesn't that make you a liar?

I never lie about trading.
 
Quote from Mecro:

Let me put it this way. If it was France that received a terrorist bomb, would you be at all surprised if they wussed out? No. Would we really care? No.

Now we just know that Spain is a wimpy country just like France, as if there was much doubt before. Their troops in Iraq only provide symbolism of alliance since in actual use they are near worthless. So screw them, let them grab their pants and run home to mommy. Now terrorists know that to get something from Spain requires a simple terror bomb.

Spain is not a major economic or political power. They have been a socialist country for quite a while now even if they pretend to support free enterprise. To be honest, I would not at all be surprised if the terrorist bombing was just a technique used to elect the socialists president. I'm sure there was some collaboration there.

Al Queda and radical Islam want to kill anyone and everyone that is not a believer of Allah (and even then it's debatable). Do you think appeasement is a solution at all? Screw Spain, let them learn the hard way. Good luck dealing with Al Queda.

Oh and also. It is still not confirmed that it was Al Queda anyway. I would place a bet that it was a technique by the socialist president to get elected.
"Al Queda and radical Islam want to kill anyone and everyone that is not a believer of Allah (and even then it's debatable)."

Not according to them.

Anyway, have you ever read the Holy Bible? It indicates that when Jesus Christ returns, all nations shall be killed by Him due to them gathering together to make war against Him.

Go figure.

Can you quote where it says that in the Bible?
