    I'm a little worried that this period leading into mid-year may be a little dull, with volatility within a defined range, but no trend that will take us to either 4% or 6% either way... here's hoping if we continue to rally we can all scale in big, and ride it for all it's worth...

  2. Nothing besides a link to his <b>blog</b>.

    Barron needs to clearly define the difference between
    <b>A. a commercial website with payment processing capabilities </b> and
    <b>B. a personal blog.</b>
    and reassure his sponsors that while allowing members to share as many references as possible, he has drawn the line somewhere to discern what is really competition to the sponsors.

    Links to personal blogs <b>WILL ADD VALUE TO POSTS ON ELITE TRADER</b> when the blog contains:
    • a chronological account (and they usually do) of comments made by the poster;
    • information about the methodology used by the poster to derive his views;
    • additional data such as charts and statistics.

  3. I concur - I would like to open a blog too at some time. Does that mean I will be no longer welcome on ET?

  4. I see the same thing and also see the duration of my positions shrinking. For example, I entered a long position last week that I think will need to be liquidated as early as the first or second week of June.

  5. I also want to open a blog to explain some of the science behind the arguments I present in my posts. Of course I also have models that will stay secret but the output of these models is starting to look less and less like missing pieces to my explanations and more and more like parallel information.

    There's now the possibility of creating a collective blog, depending on how things will evolve here. By the way, it's great to see an effort to keep this thing going.

    HI FIVE to whomever called the Tuesday rally in Bonds due to Options Expiration, I believe Tony or Steve called it!

    Actually you both did!

    Perhaps Baron or a moderator could chime in and let us know the specifics. I certainly want to keep my account open and would like to know what the parameters are so that I myself can avoid any pitfall.

  8. Thanks Surdo, I'll make sure to pass on the posts on this thread to Tony later today. Your support is appreciated.

  9. Another example of great teamwork. My quants had picked Tuesday as a one of the two optimal entry points and Tony came up with the explanation. Frickin' fantastic!
