DislikedI'll pop out of retirement for two seconds to say this:
Everybody is entitled to an opinion. Clearly we have very strong willed people posting here that believe in their own perception of reality.
Alas, there is only one truth. I stated what I believe to be true in post #1.Ignored
Disliked........
Did't Hanover try to retire once aswell? I guess this place is like Royston Vasey; You'll never leave!Ignored
DislikedNo, the sunrise is not random. Am I in the nut house here or sumfin?Ignored
DislikedNo, Ted. You've just stepped through a door unlocked with the key of your imagination, beyond it is another dimension. A dimension of sound, a dimension of sight, a dimension of mind. You're moving into a land of both shadow and substance, of things and ideas. You've just crossed over into....The Factory Zone.Ignored
DislikedI do enjoy your posts so much tdion man, but reading all answers is so boring, i decided to answer first
So far on FF i realised, that different between newbies and oldies is not market knowledge (they all know all what the market itself knows about market. Hint: market has no self awarness)
The different is that neewbie
treat tidion comments as he was neewbie. I have always a lot of laugh with it.
What about market - everything is random. Sunrise is quite random, but I would always bet it will happen.
Same with currency. Its random, but some countries and currencies sucks. Short term, longterm...
And of course MA never lies
Keep posting bully guy. You'll be first I'll vouche for, when become 1KT (need 2 trades more)Ignored
DislikedWhen I go into a casino, whatever game I choose to play, I know the fixed % that is against me. Blackjack has the best odds, if I play perfect basic strategy in know that I will play at a -.50% to the house. If I play long enough, I know my results will eventually match that negative expectaion (absent card counting)--that is a mathematical fact that cannot be overcome.
When I take a forex trade, I must start by paying the spread. Any coin flip system can, over time, yield 50% winners, but over the long term that is a loser because of the built in advantage to my market maker of paying the spread.Ignored
DislikedLet's not forget negative swap either.
It is not only that the coin flips are 50/50..... such that WLWLWLWLWL would be nearly a flat equity curve.....
The reason forex is so tough is the high leverage..... because even with 51/49 odds, you will get LLLWLWLLWLLLLLL from time to time.... which will whittle down the account.Ignored
DislikedI don't believe my eyes...glad to see your back if indeed thats the case??Ignored
DislikedBut you knew that.
You still pushing the conspiracy theories about the bailout?Ignored
DislikedTodays big drop in the dow was an extortionists (read wall street) attempt to put fear in the market so they will pass this insane bill. Purely a blatant market manipulation.Ignored
