Hi Chanya,

back in 1992-1994 the first online broker opened.

The times before I can remember placing orders via telephone calls or even via fax.
You forgot to mention those nice BTX-Broker years ...

And I do remember very well, that we was able to direct our orders via Phone and BTX with same accuracy as nowadays!

Berlin Ecke Fasanenstrasse / Ecke Kantstrasse (Bank für Handel und Industrie Berlin) has been the first public BANK in Germany which could provide such things as well as various BANKS in Switzerland!

And I still do have some nice apparatus of those ...

Telecom BTX-Phone with Bernstein-Display and 1000 direct connections ...

Three of those are still in my house at the Kurfürsten-Damm ...

id say the best way to learn is by losing money, but hey its only my opinion
I agree.

Just like they say "if you want to learn how to get around a new place you are visiting the best thing to do is get yourself lost"

Nothing motivates as much as losing money or in the above case losing your sense of direction.

Take if for what it's worth. I was drawing up a weekly chart using Gann lines, and when I glanced over to the right of the chart, notice where price is currently at. It's telling me, if and when it retraces back down a bit, looks to me like a great buying opportunity. As long as it doesn't break below.

Now back to trading.

Here is a little story I find on this forum which I think is relevant to trading. I hope you like it:

Swimmology

A highly learned professor was traveling on a ship at sea. An illiterate sailor was also on the same ship.
Every night they had a discussion.
The professor asked, "Old man, have you studied geology, the science of the earth?".
The old man replied humbly, "Sir, I am illiterate so I cannot read. I have not studied geology."
The professor then announced, "Old man, then you have wasted one-quarter of your life." The old man became very sad at the thought that he had wasted one-quarter of his life.
The next day the professor asked him, "Old man, have you studied meteorology, the science of weather?" The old man replied humbly, "Sir, I didn’t go to school. I have not studied meteorology."
The professor then announced, "Old man, then you have wasted one-half of your life." The old man became again really sad.
The next day the professor asked him, "Old man, have you studied zoology, the science of animal life?"
The old man replied humbly, "Sir, I am illiterate so I cannot read. I have not studied zoology."
The professor then announced, "Old man, you have wasted three-quarters of your life!" The old man became very sad at the thought that he had wasted three-quarters of his life.
On the forth day, it was the sailor's turn to ask a question. He came running to the professor crying, "Professor Sir, Professor Sir, have you studied swimmology, the science of swimming?"
The professor looked surprised and said, "No, I don't know how to swim."
The old man replied, "Oh Professor Sir, I am so sorry! You have wasted your whole life! This ship has struck a rock and it is about to sink. Those who can swim can swim that nearby island. All others will die."

That is were you are wrong man, they are sucking the blood out of you and they have the power to let you belevie they are doing the right think.

Tell me who is making the money today? Italy, Greece, Spain, Portugal, Ireland, France? NO. ONLY THEM. Do you think that they all clean? Their corruption lays in level that is difficult to view, that's all.

They fucked up Europe already twice, this is third time. Every 50 years the same thing.
Mike, i think you are misinformed about the situation in Europe and the PIIGS Countries in general.

I agree with your quote, however we should say that the german people are not to be blamed, and not even the german government or whatever.
They are just part of a bigger picture, why always german is used to do such kind of "dirty jobs" i don't know, nor i care, german people (including government politics banks etc.) are puppets like everybody else, in a big chess game.
What we must care about is just try to make money out of this process.
I hear you, I hear you. You could be right.

They aren't Mike. The European is using this ECB tactic to save the EU not the PIIGS. The issue with PIIGS countries that make major European capitals unwilling to support them is still there ( Over spending, Monopoly, extensive intervention of the government , increasing inflation and unemployment , growing public sector and and and .. ). They would be too stupid to make the same mistake again, when they were lending money and take promises of reforms that never happened. Otherwise, Buying the bonds will simply means printing money and printing money and unsustainable inflation.

Europe is trying to print money and be second USA as a financial power , without iron hand on inflation stability -its a suicide. In General, Greeks partially understand that - but for their defense, they were taken by surprise. The Prime minister who announced that Greece needs immediate help MR George Papandriou , was the same guy running his political campaign on " The Money is here ". Also, was the same political party that cooked Greece finanical books and manipluated their inflation rate and the fiscal budge debt.

When you cook the books, you gonna have to eat it one day
