Really? I didn't know that free markets can print their own money or impose progresstive taxes onto themselves that disincentivise economic growth. I guess the Keynesian economics "is to dampen those effects" are "well intentioned". The U.S hasn't had a free market in over 100 years, in was called the Roaring 20s.
That's the main cause of the problem. What begins as good intentions (ie, dampen the business cycle to reduce the severity of a crash) ends up being the cause of even more problems. In an attempt to be seen as 'managers of the economy' and appeal to special interest groups, politicians meddle constantly. The recent troubles can almost all be traced back to political interference.

The crash leading to the Depression of the 30s was largely a natural result of an unrestrained free market (though it could be argued that monetary policy contributed) - but it was the Government interference that followed that turned a crash into a decade long depression. Bubbles and crashes werent new, but making them a hell of alot worse was.

In the end, there isnt a perfect system, because people never behave the way that models think they should. And I also suspect that we agree a whole lot more than you think.

...and I think that's enough of my offtopic rambling for the day


Personally, if I could visit any time in the past, it would absolutely be the late 1910s- mid twenties. Wear a fedora, short some pork bellies off a tickertape, do the Charleston with Gatsby and Livermore, sip whisky with Rockefeller, Morgan and Carnegie (Andrew, not Dale).

But it is off topic and I'm not as well read as you, my brother. I sure you can run circles around this topic. So I'll end it.
Nah. In the end, it is all about the way people, as a group, act - which means every person's opinion should carry as much weight as the next. Anyone that tries to cloak things with complex terms, technicalities or qualifications is usually trying to cover up a weakness in their own argument - myself included

Happy birthday, j16 thread. That graph Ghous posted is pretty damn impressive.

I saw Jim lurking here before, so hopefully he is free of his 'responsibilities' and gets a chance to pop back in

Hey ghous. This Bearish IPB's nose just wasn't long enough, (darn it). Trust me, I was looking for a feed that had a longer nose. lol

Dropped right at the close, 50 pips with no draw down. (ok maybe 2 pips)

<Alt>+<Print Screen> buttons pressed together copy your current applications window to the clipboard.

...Then just 'paste' it into "Paint" (under Programs-->Accessories)

Then you can crop it or erase your sensitive details with the eraser or whatever before saving.
I was able to paste to Paint, but it will not let me copy it to a post. Any suggestions? Thanks

The time of day (asian session) can be pretty thin on the GU. Good rule of thumb for retracement levels on BEOB is the previous bar Low ( BUOB ret is the previous bar High). Also a retracement to the 1.4800 is not out of the reach. Again due to the up trend.
Thanks Jarroo, I was curious how you seniors played the retracement on these set ups. Where would you put your SL on this one?

Yeah that would have been a crazy time to be alive. I would like the 1950s too, after the war. Big cars, cheap gas and fast women.

Thanks joel, cool post.

Just above the previous bar low or above the 1.4800. The recent uptrend would be my concern. No way a full bar loss for me.

I'm using GFT. I may have to open a meta trader demo so I can post images here. Any recommendations on a good broker who has a demo without having to open an account?

Did a bit of research on my part and what I found out will just flat out drop james' jaw here...

here's a chart displaying our growth along with avatars of some of the angels that made it all possible.

This is your dream come true Jim.

(Used the first post on every June 17th my time to calculate this)

wanted to use some linear regression techniques to project growth over the next few years but that little dot from this year is almost looking like an error...lol

They all have demo accounts for you to use without opening a real account.

Do you have a capture program like "Screen hunter" or something like that. That should work too.

You can still post Dealbook images, but as to why the hell they dont just let you export images...

http://www.forexfactory.com/showthre...25#post3487825

(or, as Dan suggests a few posts below that, the new Windows 'Snipping Tool' is kinda neat)


As for free broker demos, I cant see much reason not to use IBFX.

That's what I was thinking of . . . the Windows Snipping Tool . . I got it but never use it.

Hey ghous.

A lot of little IPBs tonight. Poor in size but interesting to watch them move as they do.

I can send as attachment for now. I'm using XP, so I don't have the snipping tool. I know it can be done, I've seen GFT charts here before. I'll figure out eventually.

Anywho, which bar on this chart would you look at for a break and an entry on this I4B?
