I did software development for almost 15 years.. Extremely complex high throughput systems.. I also managed to earn a Masters in Computer Science.. but.. I've got so lazy and I hoped someone had it already done.. lol.. I'll look at the code.. Hey, I'm trading because I don't want to code anymore..
Nice CV man.

And yeah, when you consider the workdone in designing and developing applications, followed by debugging, it's normal to find solace in watching traders misbehave. It's natural to choose trading over coding any day, any time. It takes the click of a BUY or SELL button to make money.
Don't just beat the markets, leave bruises.

The job was fun and challenging... but the politics killed me.. Even here one can say I can't take bull shit easily.. I remember one day in a meeting the testers drove me up the wall and I ended slamming my lap top on the table and walking out.. I think that was the time when I asked myself.. WTF am I doing here?...

I still do my little projects.. Last year I built an entire data warehouse with tick data for the yuro, played with the Oracle data mining tools, very interesting.. I still have that running, it's hosted at amazon aws..

TBH, there is not much there unless you look at the data from a statistical point of view... I still have the software in conservation and I might come up with something else when I'll get that epiphany moment but for now I realized my eyes are much better..

If you need some serious hardware/software/hosting look into aws.amazon.com.. Very cool stuff what Bezos built there..

Yes it's all in the name of science I always say, I'm not ever expecting to find anything revolutionary... if I do, then bonus. I also got to the stage where I needed serious processing power but lost interest in that side project just before going to the amazon cloud solution.

Amazon cloud is amazing if you need serious horse power..

Btw Attila, haven't you found that talking-forex have become a bit slack? I've been using them for well over a year now and they've become much less vocal/informative than what they used to be.

Not really.. I think it's because not much is going on this time of year.. I can't do without them though.. You know, they now charge, so I'll have to cough up some sterling..

besides I like the chick's voice..

Perhaps yes. I've been a paid sub since I started with them, didn't know about the free option before it stopped. They have some serious news feeds and well clued up people working for them.

They might be reading from a bloomberg terminal and selling it to the masses.. They seem to be pretty on top of things however they're doing it..

I think the free period was for U.S. only...

There are tired candles on sp daily right at 1400.. The cripple (the yuro) might start diving soon.. Problem is what soon means..

If that doesn't look like compression, I don't know what is.. If it starts dropping from there, it'll be epic.. just in time for elections.

oh wait, benny will print. It's all good..

You don't think it will carry on trading above the 1400 range? I have 1411 area as an exhaustion zone.

I have 1410 on both weekly and daily, and it really struggled to get to that top, with long lower spikes.. That really smells like it's compressing into supply..

and then we're almost in September when bad things happen..
