Closing for +10 here... were in supply and euro doesn't seem to enthusiastic to clear it. Wash trade. Didn't get what I wanted, will let euro figure out what she wants to do first. Looks slightly compression'ish as well.

If this is compression and not supply consumption, we should be back to 3382 rather quickly. I'm not good at determine the tops of compression cycles so will let her play out.

really apreciatte it, mate!

guess the responsability just got BIG.

i started a thread here about this forking system i came up with. on the very first post i said (as a word of warning) that i was consistently loosing. that is not quite true as i should have written "i am not consistently winning". very first reply i had was from someone going "look at that, he has 8v and he looses money. poor guy. let's help him some..." they didn't even read the systems specs and started "downing" it.

in the end things got "cleared out" at least one of them was a constructive fellow.

still this V stuff carries some responsibility, the way i see. i WILL live up to it.

green pips, W

WASHINGTON -- Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke shot back in unusually strong terms at news reports it blamed for making "egregious errors" about the size and impact on Americans of the Fed's emergency lending during the 2008 financial crisis.

In a letter to the Senate banking committee, Bernanke released a staff memo that rebuts the portrayals in recent Bloomberg and other news articles that the Fed was aiming to help big banks' profits at the expense of taxpayers.

A Bloomberg Markets Magazine article released Nov. 27...
BB does not include inflated prices. paid for by the taxpayers for decades (trillions). nor does he state. if it were not for the fed since the 80ties. this need for a bailout would have never happened.

My opinion is that the vouch system is corrupted anyways. I tend to vouch for people (when I actually am) whom show that they have at least some idea of what they are doing, are willing to help others as well, and understand that risk management is a big part of this game, regardless of the system.

I could make a decent system off of any given moving average if I wanted. Not as accurate as S/D, but still would be profitable.

Then there are plenty of people running rampant with 10+v that are complete nutters. Not in the good sense, but in the 'everything you do is dumb and you are just going to lose money' sense. Entitlement feeling for those that shouldn't have it. Would sooner see 'em banned from this site or stripped of the vouches until they 'grow up', so to speak in their trading maturity.

They end up leading the new guys down a very bad path.

I think reverse vouchers would work quite nicely. All we need is to add a "hes a dick" button.
