1 day to go

[SantaClaus]

His professed despising of people who work in IT and a superiority complex because he claims to make a living working the markets.This is a website for IT people after all. And some of us generally enjoy what we do.
His need to show off by using the vocabulary of market technical analysis, while not understanding at a higher level the arguments against it.

I seriously doubt his claims that he makes a living solely by trading.

I'm not here to prove anything to you. And I've given up explaining why technical analysis works better than the fundamentals.

Dont know why you think I despise IT people. I just despise you!

SantaClaus was at ClientCo : left 2 years ago to be a day trader. I still meet him for coffee every few months......

HTH

I promise we'll do coffee sometime Brillo. Got a free afternoon coming up. I'll PM you.

I think he is being sarcastic/ironic and taking the piss oit of the armstrong thread. Which is not actually specific about dates : it just suggests that bad things will happen around March/April.

The time to say its all over will be May 1st : the burn a banker day....

Dunno what burn looks like in a windows font, buts that reads 'bum' to me here in Linux.

Remember the police insist we have to make our coffee meetings public! I hope sasguru turns up : hopefully all three of him!

Is it possible to make a living as day trader in the long run?
I seriously doubt it.
Over the long term your losses will probably equal your gains.

Maybe that's the subject of a new thread ...

As you say : should be a new thread. A very interesting one too. Can we have a poll with it please?

Ok, just for Manchester CID.

We'll be meeting in 2 weeks under the clock at St Pancras station.
I will be wearing a moustache and dark glasses.
Brillo will be wearing a hoodie and hidden behind a copy of the FT.

First table on the right in Starbucks in you need to plant a listening device.
