    It was a joke...I don't care how big or small a person is...I am a skinny fart myself and that does not bother me either. I don't care if somebody is black, white, gay or whatever. I was describing Sam Kenison who I happen to be very fond of.

  3. bstone,just some friendly advice..........always stick those stops on the .25`s & .75`s..................never on .50 or .00`s
    if your stop was at 32........always go the extra .25...........price action will always be driven to the whole & 1/2`s......small trick that`s saved me from being stopped & kept me in the trade many times over the years.

    nice trade today,romy.

    good trading,steve

  6. How true. I will take heed of that advise my stop was on 1332 and was promptly taken out.

    The insights are making me a better trader.

    Down for the day, feeling no guilt and ready for tomorrow.

  8. finding a system that is good enough to cause gradual building of confidence as tests prove it over and over to be dependable........then trade the minimum #contracts demo trading........then do the same stuff real money realtime......takes a long time to get there.....it is worth it but it is costly emotionally and financially......the reason most fail is they simply give up....but the ones who work long enough and their middle name is tenacious has a good chance, once they bury the greed, ego, fear, arrogance, competitiveness, and acquire complete humility......have a chance to make it.......

  9. I spent close to a year with the product. I had it on a separate dedicated PC. I checked it constantly, every second. I read the tutorials. I discussed things with customer service.

    Just because I want to learn something and I try to master it doesn't make it so.

    Believe me, the concept is brilliant. I do love to see price behaviour at the various levels. It does tell me a lot about bids vs ask. I just found it had way too much noise for me. The delta number was unreliable.

    I think if I only used it, and S/R, that I may have made it work.

    I'm not trying to be quarrelsome. I wanted to point out that your generalization is not accurate.

  10. What "delta" number (specifically)?

    ...and how is the number unreliable.....unreliable to do what?



    Help me to understand what you were trying to use the "delta" for.....thanks.
