  2. I don't have a problem with this. Seems to me that it fits right in with the rest of the journal.

    Were you taking the "advice" and "trades" seriously Tdog?

    I hope not.

  3. Not in this lifetime.

    I have no problem with his unrelated post. The reason I referred to it is that the moderator deleted a number of posts in this thread a few days ago that he deemed were not relevant to the journal itself. A couple of mine were among the casualties. So, I just wanted to get my point in under the safety of the thread starter's own irrelevant umbrella.

  6. As far as I'm concerned . . . this is surf's journal. I just posted a rebuttal to his picks a couple weeks ago. If he wants to pay me to post more consistent high percentage trades in HIS journal that is totally up to him.

  8. well, may is not starting out on the right foot. our dollar position is down a bit and Xtrader retail scalping is getting killed by the vig.

    New employment gauge based on ADP payroll data debuts Wednesday




    NEW YORK (MarketWatch) -- Automatic Data Processing (ADP) and Macroeconomic Advisers (MEA.XX) have devised a new measure of employment aimed at anticipating the Labor Department's monthly jobs report.
    The new gauge of job creation will be drawn from ADP's payroll data and will be published two days ahead of the government's Employment Situation report at 8:15 a.m. EDT each month, according to a spokeswoman for ADP.
    The first release is set for Wednesday ahead of the payrolls report for April. Economists polled by Dow Jones Newswires expect job creation of 205,000 last month, compared with 211,000 jobs created in March.
    The two firms declined to comment further on the indicator ahead of its inaugural release.
    ADP, based in Roseland, N.J., claims to pay one in six U.S. workers, while Macroeconomic Advisors, based in St. Louis, is an economic consulting firm founded by former Federal Reserve governor Laurence Meyer.
    There has been some anticipatory comment about the indicator in financial markets given the difficulty economists have had in forecasting the jobs report.
    "I'm planning to monitor it, I think it might prove to be a useful indicator of the payroll data," said Jim O'Sullivan, senior economist at UBS Investment Research in Stamford, Conn.

    Macroeconomic Advisers is an economic consulting firm founded by former Federal Reserve governor Laurence Meyer.
    (A story published at 9:26 am EDT misspelt the firm's name.)
