The market is winding down, personally been in and out and away on business most of the week. Im looking forward to some extended screen time next week, as this one finishes pulling into a tight range , maybe we will see some good directional movement next week and get the last part of this year kicked off to a great start.

Wishing all a peaceful weekend.

From my own study, there are many contradictions in it. If we are to believe that every word is true and should be used as a guide for life then perhaps, as an example, you could tell me why you think that it is a disgrace for women to speak in church?
I havn't found any can you show me one ?

Dont forget the bible has illustrations, symbolisms, parables so at times its not literal, however when understood it all harmonizes.

Response to your question.
Its not a matter of disgraceful or demeaning but a matter of orderly arrangement.
Gen.2:18 Not good for man to be alone, a compliment was created.
Man not being better but would possess qualities and abilities different than each other and that would compliment each other.
1 Corinthians 14:33 Creator, a god of order not disorder.
1 Co. 11:3 Lists order of subjection, God, Christ, man, woman.
1 Tim.2: 11-12 Not recommended to teach in the congregation so not to show lack of subjection.
Women do make valuable contributions to the activity of the congregation as noted at Psalm 68:11, Philippians 4:2,3 As they show love for there fellow man they encourage others outside the congregation to hold true to bible principles.

this is a post that had my attention just 2 posts above the one lusan and maheswara metioned. i feel this is another reason to reduce scout-size.

you are dangerously scalping, instead of dancing. That is why you find difficulty in understanding. You are also aligning your cap as excuse to the MM , this is dangerous. Your state of undercapitalisaton is restricting your MM and therefore will impair your ability to MM the dance properly. You continue down this road and you will find that your cap will impliment tweaks that will hurt your dance and book.

I am quite sure that due to your cap to ROI ratio, you have absolute inabiity to ride , due to mindset.
their (maheswa & lusan) fti-quote is like a KOAN to me.... like:"what is the sound of one clapping hand??" i hope to be "enlightend" one day and understand what fti and the oldtimers are talking about.

i have some ideas but also had some wine so maybe later...

i have saved page 677 to review later. many special posts there!!!

HI J-Pax,
If you want to look at my journal I'm sure you look at Lusan & GEfx journals they are very interesting, Look at their charts, the reason why they entried, what were they thinking at that time? Learn from their winning and also mistaking.
Again Thanks Lusan & GEfx, your journals are very good.

Just to be clear, are you telling me that you personally believe that women should be defernetial to men as they are lower down the order of creation?

Corinthians 14:35
And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church.

NIV uses the word disgrace, KJV uses the word shame. Either way it seems to convey the same meaning to me. So how can you say it is not a matter of disgrace?

You say every word is not supposed to be literal, there seem to be a lot of fundamentalists who would disagree with you.

I thought we should not carry on with this discussion really, but if you want a quick example of a plain contradiction then perhaps you can tell me how Judas died?

I think you misunderstood my post. I use a similar skew to you. Just that, when I made that post, cable had been in a fairly tight range for a while and every time I tried to add to an attack it would turn against me.

Hi lilpip,
I think you have it correct. God has established an order to the universe. Each of us has a role to play, according to His plan. Some will look upon this order and complain of inequalities. That is a foolish thing to do and possibly a terrible sin. For example, I am a man and will never experience the wonder and joy of giving birth, but that is just part of the plan. If you do not like the plan, get over it.
  • #10,390
  • Sep 11, 2009 10:03pm Sep 11, 2009 10:03pm
It isn't a matter of liking or disliking a plan. The point in question is whether your understanding of the plan (if one actually exists) is correct.

I'd still like to know if you and lilpip actually consider yourself to be on a higher level than women, in some way?

As to you telling me that to complain about inequalities in what you believe to be God's plan, is a terrible sin...you maybe need to study your Bible a little more. It is not for you to judge whether another man's actions are sinful or not - not if you believe what is written in the Bible.

The principle is subjection and order.

Maybe I misunderstand you, but if you have a $100 account, I feel that $50 or $10 is too much for your first trade (scout). At $10 a pip, if price went against you, it would soon wipe out your $100 account. I started my live account with $500 a few years ago and I started trading with 10 cents per pip as part of the learning process. Anyway all the best with your trading. Ray

If i can... I trade for nearly 2month. (a lot of time..) Now I have 1320USD. The only thing that i care is to trade good.

It is here, believe yourself, but....Know that if you are a rocket, you are a rocket... If you are a car, you are a car, not a rocket... Develop what you are...not what you arent...Stop doing mistakes...if you know, that you do mistakes and arent disciplined, forget trading, it is not for you. If you are able to stop mistakes, you will find, it works, it is going to work... Ask yourself what you are... A rocket? So what are you waiting for?If waiting for cars, than you are not a rocket, not a car, but somebody who wil be unable to trade succesfully.

Judas Iscariot briefly
Matthew 27:5 tells us...
Just chiming in with my $.02

Woman was created out of man (man created 1st) as was created as a help-mate, as it was deemed man was inadequate in self-existence. Woman was not created as a lesser, but was created in subject Both had roles to play that help each other, Man has the responsibility to care for his bride. In fact the Bible describes them as becoming one flesh. This order can be seen through out God's creation.

In fact the Church is seen as the bride of Christ.

Something to ponder............. God has stated by his law (his own word) that Sin carries a debt, and each of us are responsible to God for our sin debt. No mortal person can pay the debt of another, as they can not pay their own debt of sin. The penalty of sin is death, both physical and spiritual.

In a legal sense, in some cultures, the one exception is that a Husband can assume the debt of a Wife.

I was not judging you, just commenting on the fact that what you are doing may be sinful. It may seem confusing to you, but we are allowed that. You do the checking. As for Judas, shortly after Judgement, I will know if he and Jesus planned the betrayal, or if Judas acted alone. It is one of the mysteries of the Bible, and aguing its finer points here is not a good use of our time.

One of the many reasons I participate in fti's thread is his obvious belief in God, as stated in many of his posts. It gives me the feeling that he and I, although separated by many miles and much cultural differences, share some of the same core values. His position as teacher is elevated and confirmed by those shared beliefs. ukman, would you argue trading techniques with fti? Of course not, to do so would be an insult to him. So, why do you argue about his other contributions to the thread? I believe it is also arrogant and disrespectful to the teacher and host of this thread.

You clearly have a problem with religion and those who practice it. That is ok and your right. None of us here will change your (closed) mind, so the efforts should now stop. May I suggest you open a journal and post your anti-religious stuff there? I will be more than willing to share trading ideas with you, but will now ignore your other posts. I think this thread should get back to things that make for better trading.

Did anyone make any money on Friday? I made one trade on the $/J and got 10 pips, but that is all. Was it me or was the market really flat, at least up until NY fixing?
