+1 !!!! I couldn't agree more. That first paragraph is a gamebreaker. If a guy can adhere to what you said, they will do tremendous. I use...
I think at the end of the day the difference between the guy that makes it and the guy that fails is risk mgmt and discipline. When you read an...
One could argue though that price drive traders are merely guessing as well. You could get some information/fundamental news that is a price...
So you are a fundamental guy. That's cool. Whatver works for you. But to continue on here saying that what you do works and what others doesn't...
I am busting Surf's balls. Calling him a buy and hold guy is like calling Mav a democrat. Is lethal.
It's not Friday yet. Quit being childish.
I'm still trying to get an answer on what his defintion of a price driver is. Is a bad employment number that drives the SP futures down 20...

Mav saying you suggested shorting the stock at 2.00 is comical. I guess if someone asks me would if I would buy SP Futures up here at 1390 and I...
So I guess guys like Tudor Jones, Schwartz, Kovner, Marcus, etc don't count? Makes sense....why would anyone listen to some of the best traders...
