  1. Can't help that I have a limited mind - I don't pick on you for being a false prophet.

    Is it: The lines were incorrectly drawn?

    People like you remind me of my father in law and his views on politics, it's his way or the highway, no open mind.

    My father in law is an ahole.

  4. Knowing your wife, it seems that might be hereditary.

    Familiarize yourself w/ the block button?

  5. Longer-term trend is up for CL so when that happens I look for long set ups and disregard short-setups. Often helps me avoid getting whipped intraday...

    It appears that you are again making up your own reality. Apparently, you just assume things and believe that they are true. Please show me where I claim that I use TA. I never said that I use TA. Please feel free to prove me wrong and show me the quote that states otherwise.

    Secondly, what do you mean that there isn't a class called fibonacci religion 202? If that is the case, I need to ask for a refund. FYI - I don't use fibonacci in anyway whatsoever.

    Also, what exactly do you think that Quantitative Finance is? You first.

    Lastly, I may or may not have a super secret crayon that does wonders.

  7. +0.5 kid, if it were not for the rambling at the beginning, I'd say that's a solid post worthy of a trader. Your re-education is coming along brilliantly.

  9. Technical analysis works for me 70% of the time.

    Traders and investors are in a very risky business.

    Risk management. Traders blow up when they are 90% margin.

    Check this Dragon pattern. High Risk = High Reward. == positive correlation between risk and reward.

    The back and head with high volume is the breakout == confirmation of dragon or dud?

    Confirmation must be fundamental. Reward/Risk is 100:1
