Increase in gold margins as a way to force money into the market to spur the “recovery”
raising the margins on gold is the government’s way of making it harer for people who can see what they are doing to the currency and the economy to profit. As a way of comparison, the chart below shows the effects on silver when the same tool was used.
Incompetence meets extortion
or “what happens when you finally tell the truth” , one which no one wants to hear
oops; this probably means no access to the Lincoln bedroom either
The Obama administration is finally playing hardball in negotiations 
Maxine Waters: pathetic racist running out of patience
Maxine Waters cant understand why her quid hasnt earned and pro quo’s. She makes Sheila Jackson Lee look reasonable
and then asks her constituents to give her permission to be a leader, lest anyone gets their feelings hurt.
yeah, that makes me want to send more tax money to Washington

Republicans finding ways to make Obama look presidential
what an uninspiring set of choices we are offered
Its Perry’s race to lose, and he looks like nothing more than Bush 2.0, without the speech impediment, but fewer ideas if that were possible.
Pawlenty dropped out after lacking the courage to even debate Romney when he had a chance, then tried to beat up Michelle Bachman and fell flat.
Romney the empty suit cant even generate static electricity. Ron Paul wont ever shed his foreign policy nut label, although he’s closest by far to the Founders’ intent for a President.
Newt is a cartoon of himself which hasnt aged well as he gets lost in the noise of an impatient media.

experiment with housewives trading the futures during one of the most volatile weeks in the last 50 years
Image via Wikipedia
the ladies traded very well, netting 2K for the week, using simple support & resistance levels, with good risk management and money management techniques.
they traded 2 indices: Russell2000 and the DJIA, at contract per trade, with an initial risk of 250; they added some practrice tardes in some currencies later in the week fro the experience: mostly Aussie and Canadian dollars
the 3 of them around 2 laptops and 2 extra screens doing their collaboration was very instructive and motivational to the rest of the trading room. They were very good and learned a lot and will soon be prepared to go live, now that they have a good understanding of the platform

Trading experimentation: ticks vs price charts
Image via Wikipedia
am very pleased and interested in the results of using tick charts in short term futures trading
tick charts do a good job of mapping the psychology implied in price changes in a regular wave, calibrated by decisions made, rather than in decisions over time
in some ways it is the conceptual equivalent of point and figure charts, and renko charts
we are finding that 200 ticks per candle is probably too sensitive to mood changes and increases trading frequency in a large index like the Dow, but that 800 ticks looks very good for intraday trading
these are things you only learn by trying, and our live trading workshop did a good job of testing the ideas
