  1. The human brain is wired to perceive patterns or trends even in random data.

    i.e. you "see" forms in clouds, tea leaves, random numbers, etc.

    the whipsaws this morning kicked everybody to the curve

    the people who can make lot of money day in and out are scalpers for points

    but you have to be really good, 10 years watching the market

    cause you are competing with algorithms that respond quick

    ALSO everyone giving advice here is a quack

    INCLUDING ME :p
     
  3. Hogwash! I say, "Buy low, sell high". What's wrong with that?
     
  4. Actually my big trade for the day was right after 10am numbers. There was order within chaos there, sorry you missed it Coldie old pal :)

     
  5. Not true exactly. Some of us got kicked to the "curb".
     
  6. He bought Boardwalk for $400. Nice trade, Rascal.

    Save s'more Monopoly money & you can buy Park Place as well.

    Eventually you can build HOTELS (the big pieces) & then you'll be KING OF ET!!!

  9. Huh? Never said I was king of ET (or want to be), just disputing OP's claim that EVERYONE got kicked to the "curve"

    true.

    that's why you perceived a fruitful pattern in buy and hold in the long run, while in fact there is not any.

    good luck with your wishful thinking.
