what algoritms? sounds like a conspiracy theory... algorimts cannot predict the future.

[sgomez858]

they can when it comes to looking 300 miliseconds in to the future. Thats long enough to disrupt intraday movements. Stocks are still going from point A to point B but for those of us who trade intraday price movement, you must be aware of what is going on here.

adapt or lose. stop bitching, the market does not care what you think about the participants in it.

@ramiraramira they don't predict the future they actulay play in the present time while the truth is that you play the past .. for you second is a second for HFT second is 1000 miliseconds. Now you get it?

The astrology that you refer to is too mystical and Satanic to have any place in the aspect of stock prediction. Ironically, the stock charts, patterns and indicators are used to reduce risk, not to predict the future. Every trading school, professional trader,author, teacher will indicate that with every trade a stop must be established. Why would the greatest traders make a stop loss mandatory? Why do they not speak of just a trailing stop when they are "always" ahead on "every" trade?

Hi Steve & Andy, I was just wondering if this is the proper way to calculate margin interest fees:

borrowed 15000.00 on margin @ 9 percent for 3 days.. 15000 x 9 % divided by 365 days x the number of days borrowed which would be 3 in this case..is this correct?? Thanks again for the great vids and inpiration.

I actually looked into the covered call writing, but the percentage of return there is too small for the amount of risk you take

You sound like the guy featured in the first Wall Street film series.. A fund manager, predicting market using astrology.. Sorry, no thanks.

Stock trading is so much like astrology when you think about it. Astrologers look at astronomical patterns in planets and stars to try and predict future events. Stock traders do the exact same thing with the symbols that represent past price values that sometimes resemble a recognizable pattern that is likely to predict the future price of a stock (trying to predict the future). Analysts are like the same thing as Prophets. It's all the same concept.
