    You are $ thornybird. , you stated that there is a 75% chance we fall tomorrow as ES is trading at 1436.75 bid and 1437 ask and I took a long at 1437. Now we are above 1438. Thanks once again to the greatest contrarian on ET.

  4. My list of top 3 includes Thorn, Madrid9, and BlueStreek. They define ET for what it is: a largerly mindless entertainment and meaningless drivel.

  6. Is Bozente the Klown still trying to play that old 'winning by losing' game? You'd think he'd realize by now that even individuals who may have fallen victim in the past to 'winning by losing', do in fact build up an immunity to the tactic over time.

    The following was written with a different troll in mind, but notice how well it also fits Bozo:

    __________



    If you happen to play poker, understand that professional trolls utilize a very similar strategy: Tight-aggressive

    <b>Tight:</b> Don't give the victim an inch! Never admit the possibility of ever having been wrong. Never say anything which can be remotely useful or helpful to anyone. Never provide the prey with a single word he may wish to hear. Give nothing!

    <b>Aggressive:</b> Focus! Your goal is not conversation or debate, but the exact opposite- nihilism. Mercy is merely a handicap of the weak. You are a disease with only one goal in mind: <b>writing whatever it takes to piss off the victim.</b> Contradict yourself all the time... make ridiculous statements- but do it assertively and repeatedly, but most importantly:

    <b>Laugh when nothing is funny!
    Laugh at the victim constantly, use smiley faces, and pretend to completely miss every single point he tries to make. Remember, looking like a complete idiot yourself is unavoidable if you wish to troll at the professional level.</b>

    Another key troll tactic is the practice of <b>winning by losing.</b> While the victim is trying to put forward solid and convincing facts to prove his position, the troll's only goal is to infuriate its prey. The troll takes (what it knows to be) a badly flawed, wholly illogical argument, and then vigorously defends it while mocking and insulting its prey. The troll looks like a complete idiot, but this is all part of the plan. The victim becomes noticeably angry by trying to repeatedly explain the flaws of the troll's argument. Provoking this anger was the troll's one and only goal from the very beginning.

  8. Thorn,

    I applaud and appreciate all that bring education to any forum to help traders better grasp the idiosyncrasies of the Markets . . . that being said one doesn't PREDICT ANYTHING!

    One of my favorite bumper stickers says, "Sh_t Happens". A traders similar sticker should say, "Price Happens". Price just oscillates, it isn't predictable.

    You should know better and will have to suffer the consequences. Don't pick at me for your error.

    Correct, since I co-manage over $200M, i don't bother with that penny stuff.
    Do you know what S&P 500 futures are?
