Fair enough.

no not all trades are based on premium service... but for all large/small cap equity trades, my trades are at the very least biased by the premium service. I.e. I never initiate a short trade while on a "buy" signal. However I may stay in cash or go to cash sooner. Which wouldn't give away the exact signal dates, it would give away what direction its currently in.

I used to post actual prices for ETF trades real time... but that thread isn't active enough now-a-days. As it is premium only anyway.

I would not recommend a group of people follow my lead anyway. I did fairly well prior to paying for premium services, but I'd chalk it up more to luck than anything else.

Sometimes you gotta let'm hang. wheeeee!

Made that move before upgrading my system with 'new technology.' Can't wait to re-run it and see if it still agrees with that move.

Re: Grexit. I don't really worry about news that might or might not happen. I believe that future news, as expected by 'smart' money, is woven into price patterns. We'll see how this theory works out for me going forward.

The Wolf of Wall Tweet
A Bot Made Millions On Wall Street By Reading The Web. It Also Ate This Guy's Lunch.

Quicker than any human seemingly could have done it, someone—or rather something—bought $110,530 worth of cheap options on Altera, a company that makes digital circuits.* Over the next several minutes and until the end of the day, as humans digested Mattioli’s takeover rumor at human speed, Altera’s stock price rose. When all was said and done, those cheap options had resulted in a $2.4 million profit. Speculation immediately centered on the idea that an automated program (a “bot”) had scanned the tweet, interpreted its meaning, and instantly bought those options based on an algorithm. The robot had read the tweet and made a killing on it before anyone knew what was going on.

Bot makes $2.4 million reading the Web: Meet the guy it cost a fortune.

bye bye open outcry

For Chicago futures traders, one final round in the ring

A few dozen Chicago traders will don their multicolored jackets to trade soybean and forex futures the old-fashioned way one last time on Monday, marking the end of 167 years of open-outcry trading in the city where it was born.

Many years ago, when I had a MyTrack account, "market maker manipulation" was a main topic of discussion in their forums.
