Don't really care which one is true TBH. At the end of the day you either have valuable input or you don't. Your pips are yours. I'm personally not impressed but go for it if you want to keep up that angle. It'd be pleasant for you to present a less ...

Timing. The idea is that if you can identify a 'winning' trade then why not just go all-in from the start? The idea behind the martingale is that you have no fukin clue what's happening but eventually the mean-reversion will save your ass. ...

Nope; I literally dump out trash and apply high/low PH chemicals to sterilized cleanrooms for manufacturing. I'm an 'extra clean' janitor and even THAT I do with too much perfection/precision. I have no shame. We all have made mistakes in life and ...

I suppose that is also a valid interpretation of a nuke. Reference Ronda's "Mechanical pyramid" and my "stacking" step #4.

I was raised by a lower-class (welfare) family of my mother/aunt/sisters. I'm pretty sure I had what would colloquially be interpreted as 'high functioning autism'. Women aren't exactly the most self-aware individuals to what I understand (their ...

Oh, hush. I've been escaping from mundane reality since I was 6 years old. 'Reality' (as it was perceived since I was 6) is mundane. You have this lovely need to present yourself as someone that NEEDS to feel superior to others. My question is how ...

My solution; I don't do this for my lifestyle (yet). I work a little more than full-time (as an 'aseptic technician' A.K.A glorified janitor) and spend just as much time on this. I do it because I am 28 and it's been my passion since I was ~14 to ...

Sure there is. A boolean value for greed/fear * time degredation. But, as a general rule, math whizs with high IQ's tend not to have a very high EQ. Also, What do you think a Consumer Sentiment Index is?

Why use low leverage when you can use high leverage and trade less of the account? I'd rather use 10% of a 50x account than 50% of a 10x account. At least that way I know I won't be receiving a margin call any time soon... and I have that extra ...

Your brain is a lag indicator. It takes how many nano-seconds for you to realize you're late to every party you've ever been to? A 'lag indicator' only lags as much as you let it. You can have a lag indicator calibrated to identify an emerging trend ...

It's much easier to fold on most of your hands when the market doesn't notice you're playing conservatively and so it doesn't fold when you actually do call. It usually wins the blind, sometimes the flop... but it always goes all-in on a ...

It's an inference. If there is more tick volatility then you can infer that there is more volume because more individually sized orders are being placed. It's a measure of the 'volume' of volatility. A sort of hybrid indicator because there is no ...
