  1. Toto is awesome! My mom said I used to jump around in my playpen back when that Africa music video would come on TV. hahaha
  2. Yeah I agree with you there Nick. As much as I personally take pride in putting my hand over my heart (or popping a salute as it used to be)...I am not going to jump to conclusions that someone is unpatriotic just because they don't share my exact beliefs. Like you said, your actions, not gestures are the defining characteristics of someone as a patriot. ha ha funny, as I knew a couple girls from Sydney who said the same thing about Fosters. haha!
  3. Yeah I hear you there man. I've always been lucky enough to be a cynical bastard...I bought a couple of crappy books and wasted a bunch of time researching bad ideas on the internet..but luckily I haven't dropped any big money other than on some worthless books here and there and a few free trials to chat rooms when I first started. I was lucky to find a solid method and ideology early in the game...I am still as always messing around with and attempting to build on my knowledge...but I always have the old standby method that works fine. If I never was able to make any improvements to my current method, that would be fine with me...but in the meantime...I am always going to be looking for improvement. *PS...I have never had any big disasters with vendors and books...but I have a bunch of small losses here and there that add up to a relatively large amount of money. ha ha But it was worth it, as I know what I know now.
  4. That's what I hope to find out for myself soon!
  5. I liked the Tharp Book. Carter's book is good, and Lukeman's has some good points here and there.......I haven't read the other one...but that's a good list. Remember, the most important thing is not the exact methods you read in the books...but what those ideas can inspire you to figure out for yourself.
  6. ha ha no worries there man I understand. LOL
  7. Thanks for the info, I'll have to check it out....I saw his book on Amazon the other day....have you read it?
  8. heh heh I was just messin' with you man. If you're insane, then you're in good company here my friend. ha ha
  9. heh heh I was gonna ask you the same thing. LOL You mentioned looking at options volatility, and it reminded me of Zweig, who "invented" the put/call ratio...made me think to ask if you'd read it..I have been thinking about picking it up, but figured I'd ask...Sorry to jump off topic. I'll let you know how it turns out.
  10. I agree. Glean what you can, formulate your own ideas and strategies. Stand on the shoulders of giants.
  11. Have you ever read anything from Marty Zweig?
  12. Interesting stuff Tin. You have some good ideas!
  13. Abe, Hey I would suggest Trading Day By Day by Chick Goslin. Even if you don't necessarily follow his method, the ideas in the book are second to none. The guy is a real gentleman. Hard core real deal too, 30+ yrs as a trader. not a theorist. He has statements posted on his website if you'd like to check for yourself.
  14. Sorry if I made you mad Jacques. :cinema:
  15. Someone ought to log in over there and if he makes a pitch...lay the smackdown.
  16. In my opinion Trader Monthly is pretty silly because of its advertisements. It's a subtle lure to get people trading with big dreams with their head in the clouds instead of at the table.
  17. That's interesting Tin. So far the best s/r I have found are previous distributions.....
  18. Hmmm...too bad it has to be this way..but that's just the nature of the beast.
