  1. 1. Would you like to see a poker forum?



Recommended Posts

Hi all,

 

Wanted to see some feedback regarding whether or not to include a poker forum. I dont want to call it "Poker Forum" but more in the form of "Trading and Poker".

 

If you have read Zen and the Art of Poker, you will see how these two professions share many similarities from discipline, patience, probabilities, and psychology. I am sure poker players have a lot they can discuss in relation to trading. (it can get quite deep!)

 

Any feedback is appreciated! Also, if you have a title for the forum please post here! Thanks.

Poker is something I played many years ago and I have been interested in online poker but never pursued it further. If you set up a forum here then I would be interested.

Sure, why not? Give us something to do besides just talk about trading since apparently no one likes discussing hockey with me :\

 

Maybe b/c hockey is so incredibly boring and is a dying league. :rofl:

 

Don't worry, the NFL starts soon James and you can watch a real sport and league in action.

I think this is the most interesting thing we've seen here in a while - we have a new poster that also happened to write a poker book (assuming I found the right guy, but I'm pretty sure).

 

New post - http://www.traderslaboratory.com/forums/f34/how-does-this-compare-to-your-4142.html#post41977

 

His book - http://tinyurl.com/5v4sr3

 

 

Now there's something that could bridge together James - we have a poker author here on the forum AND also a trader. Could be fun to interact with him.

It's okay, I know you're still upset after that miserable drive in 1987 :haha: But it's alright, I prefer physical sports with physically fit athletes ;)

 

James - I say give the poker forum a shot.

I agree, I don't really get it either. While I voted yes, I don't really play poker but it would be interesting.

I guess I still think though it would be better to have a non trading speculation section to keep some interesting things from getting lost in the "generalness" of the general section.

    • Date: 12th November 2024. Market Buzz: Trump Trade Impact! “Trump trade” has boosted the US Dollar and US stocks, but Trump’s policies may have less favorable effects on global assets. Trump’s plan to raise tariffs is expected to negatively impact economies worldwide, especially exporters like China. Asia & European Sessions:   Bitcoin Surge! Bitcoin broke $90K, driven by Trump trade once again. Bitcoin is up roughly 110% in 2024, helped by robust demand for dedicated US ETFs, interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve and Trump’s cryptofriendly agenda. Crypto market capitalization has exceeded its pandemic-era peak, reaching $3.1 trillion. Traders are betting on Bitcoin reaching $100,000 by year-end, according to data from the Deribit exchange. Open interest — or outstanding contracts — for CME Group Inc. futures for Bitcoin and second-ranked Ether (ETHUSD) scaled records on Monday, a sign of growing engagement by US institutional investors. Asian shares dropped, alongside European and US equity futures, as traders evaluated the implications of President-elect Donald Trump’s policy agenda and potential cabinet choices. The MSCI Asia Pacific Index fell for a third consecutive day, driven by rising Treasury yields amid concerns that Trump’s proposed tax cuts could increase inflation. There are also reports that Trump is considering two individuals for prominent roles in his administration with track records of criticizing China. DAX and FTSE100 are down -1.1% and -0.5% respectively, after a pickup in German HICP inflation and higher than expected UK wage growth dampened easing expectations. Investors await the US CPI report for insights into the Fed’s easing path, as Trump’s inflationary policies may lead to fewer rate cuts. Financial Markets Performance:   The USDIndex continues to rise and is currently at 105.75. It hit a 1-year high. EURUSD drifts to 1.0620 and GBPUSD is in a sell off, currently at 1.2800. Oil prices fell after their biggest 2-week decline, amid a weak demand outlook from China, a stronger US Dollar, and concerns over a potential oversupply. Crude oil has traded within a narrow range since mid-last month, influenced by Middle East tensions, the US election, and OPEC+ output decisions. Gold remains under pressure and is currently at just $2604.36 per ounce. It hit a one-month low, down 5% since Trump’s election victory, as a strong dollar and US equity rotation pressured the metal. Gold’s decline was also technical, breaking below the 50-day moving average, causing funds to cover long positions. Despite recent drops, gold remains up 25% for the year, supported by central bank purchases and geopolitical risks. Always trade with strict risk management.
