Reminiscenses of a Stock Operator ISBN 0-89966-605-1

 

page 97 line five, makes reference to "token"

 

this stuff has been around a long time!

 

Excellent reference wsam! Now I have to look up the book and see what it says. What is your understanding of the token from the book or in your own words, if you don't mind me asking. Thanks for the lead.

My idea of a "token", correct me if I am wrong for you more experianced tape readers, but small prints above or below the bracket range.

 

I've initiated some of those in my earlier years so I know what those suckers are thinking about when the market turns on them really fast.

Nice Video:

 

Unfortunatelly, since October 2009, all the big trades that you see in the tape are unbundled, which means that if a big trader hits market buy of 50 contracts, you don´t see those 50 contracts on the tape but all the sellers orders that those 50 contract order filled

 

In the price action room of Joel Parker, you can find honest and complete information on how to read the tape, plus a tape indicator that shows the bundled trades again, helping you see who is in control.

 

Hope you find it usefull.

Right.

 

In other words before the change CME sent data with less precision than it does now.

 

No problem to go back to that less detailled data by means of software.

    • I guess US has fund managers and investment banking institutions looking after the portfolios on behalf of their clients.
    • There are many resources related to forex trading available on forums like babypips and forexfactory etc.
    • Candle stick pattern is one of the easiest charting patterns available to learn and make money. However, new traders never learn about the skills needed for earning money but they rush for making money and eventually lose their money.
    • Nothing wrong with being a ‘progressive’. Nothing wrong with being a ‘conservative’.  Very generally, ‘conservatives’ have preponderance of the here and now neurotransmitters, prefer empirical references, the rule of law, and value individual agency (It has been said that conservatives love humans and progressives love humanity) . Very generally, ‘progressives’ are dopaginaric - driven by passion for a better possible future, prefer references to others  (Example Karmela won’t answer questions with facts.  She cites the opinion of 18 ‘experts’), have a penchant for rule by man/mobs not by law , and value ‘societal' agency.  However, excesses of either tendency indicates mental illness, collective malaise, and has consequences.  When either camp is systematically captured by control seekers and/or, situationally by mobs, the whole is lessened. A key sign that is occurring is when one side no longer allows disagreement.  Progressives have  currently gone crazy in those excesses and are no longer allowing anything but unithought... examples - You can still be a vocal pro choice republican.  Try being a vocal pro life democrat. For snicks just try it.  You’ll get cancelled.  Bust a myth about blacks in America, true up the real  history of Republicans ending slavery and what has happened since, how the democrats are the party of the KKK, how Obama did not a fkn thang for blacks in general, be a black republican, etc.    You will get canceled in a heartbeat. Step up and question the social agendas of federally subsidized schools at a board meeting... get treated like shit and also get an immediate case number with the FBI ... Question the requirements to watch and lickkiss the 'rainbows' and also make sure your kids show up for it, not to mention fund transitions out of your pocket and see what you get ‘labeled’ Question mainstream media bias - even just to mention that biased, agenda driven narrative is different from truth in reporting - and see what happens to your voice... Excesses have consequences... imbalances have consequences... just sayin’
