Damn that DECK....3 time loser and always sucker bait for me. You are an emotional trader, tater, and operate without rules. You have lost money in a market that is on a downward plunge because you "think" emotionally; you think you can outwit the market. In the midst of uncertainty, collect the data as an action plan to avoid further risk. Study the data. Use your little brain power, assuming you have any and cool the transactions until the market corrects itself. buckeroo  posted on  2018-02-07   13:14:23 ET  Reply   Trace   Private Reply   #79.

To: Gatlin (#61) (Edited) In forex, the difference between going long and short is purely semantics, as it's always pitting one currency vs another. In fact, when you do a trade in forex, you actually commit to a long and short simultaneously, longing one currency while shorting another. With stocks, the assumption is the US dollar value is fixed while the stock value fluctuates. In forex, both the dollar and a competing currency are understood to fluctuate in value relative to one another, and it doesn't really matter if the true absolute value changes. In fact if you long the EURO/USD pair and the EURO loses value, as long as the USD loses value faster than the EURO, you still make money as the chart registers an increase in price. I suppose technically, when you buy a stock you are implicitly shorting the US dollar at the same time, as you are in fact trading dollars away to gain something you expect will perform better than those dollars will for the duration of the trade.

To: buckeroo (#81) ... because you want to hump the first woman you meet. I don’t know about humping the first woman I meet. But at age 84, I know that I still do enjoy having sex with my wife every day of the year. That is....except during the entire month of August. I miss it then, because August is when my next door neighbor who helps me on and off goes on vacation. I will not be emotional....I will not be emotional....I will not be emotional....

Oh, yea....I do get to Phoenix every week or so. But beyond that, I don’t get out of Scottsdale anyone. I used to though, when each year from 1965 through 1985, my wife and I spent a month each summer traveling throughout Europe while we based out of Austria. After we gave that up, we bought a series of motor homes and traveled extensively throughout the U.S. until we got tired of doing that. All I do now is just sit here all day and make money. As Donald would tweet....Sad. Gatlin  posted on  2018-02-07   15:56:18 ET  Reply   Trace   Private Reply   #87.

Yes, Team USA subsidizes my daughter, a PITTANCE, not even a percentage of what it costs to do the sport. So, as with all things, it is a matter of degree. Internet trolls such as yourself get energy out of calling names, etc. People yell at you, and you like that. I'm past it. You just can't be taken seriously.

If we lived in France, we would. But we live in America, so we go win medals for America. I DO love France, that's true. I also love Michigan, New England, San Diego - quite a few places. You don't love anything, because you're a twisted, bitter person whose energy is devoted to raging at strangers on the Internet. I pity you. As far as Surrender Monkey's go, we all think the tax system is unfair, and we all pay our taxes anyway out of fear of the IRS and its enforcement, so we've all surrendered to the reality of power in this world. You, me, everybody else here. Vicomte13  posted on  2018-02-07   16:56:35 ET  Reply   Trace   Private Reply   #95. To: Vicomte13 (#92) You're still a pussy who can't change a sparkplug.

Well, VxH, truth is, I'm a pretty impressive guy, with a pretty impressive resume, military career, and legal career. And I've got a beautiful family, and a nice house. I get paid to give advice to people, and the advice I give is good. You, on the other hand, are just a yapping mouth on the Internet. You point to the most petty of things as though you are making an effective indictment of my character. It's silly. Truth is, anybody who listened to and took the advice I've given so far on this thread would be the better for it, and I intend to go on giving similar advice. I am sure you will keep yapping your shit-trap at me, and I'm sure you will continue to think that you are scoring "points" in some invisible game. I'm equally sure that you've made clear to everybody else (except the other guy who hates me) that you're a disruptive troll. YOU haven't offered any advice at all, other than "Don't listen to HIM!" while pointing at me. It's a strange place, the Internet, populated by all sorts of kookburgers like you. But I guess I post here, in a very open and only lightly- moderated form, so having to deal with the likes of you is just one of the crosses I'll have to bear. It's a light one. I don't take you seriously. I doubt anyone else does. I am giving serious, thoughtful advice on this particular thread. And as I return to this subject matter, after this walk through the wilderness of kookburgerville with you (which I sincerely hope that A K A Stone will delete in its entirety, because it's all utterly off topic, and completely useless to this thread), I'll just wish you a good night. Now back to our regular programming. Vicomte13  posted on  2018-02-07   17:24:03 ET  Reply   Trace   Private Reply   #99. To: VxH (#97) Uhuh.

To: Gatlin (#86) (Edited) Ok, so this time I'll quote Buffett WITH ATTRIBUTION. I don't find everything that Warren Buffett says to be particularly profound, but each of these particular nuggets of his wisdom I agree with completely. It isn't that he taught me, or you, these things. A lot of us learned these lessons from life. It's that he has a particularly pithy way of putting them such that they are memorable. We all had to reinvent the wheel getting the wisdom to recognize that he's right, but we don't have to all make our own maxims. Buffett's already given us some goodies. Here are the ones that reflect my own view of the economic world: (1) Don't invest in what you don't understand. (2) Risk comes from not knowing what you are doing. (3) It takes 20 years to build a reputation and five minutes to ruin it. If you think about that, you'll do things differently. (4) Our favorite holding period is forever. (5) Only buy something you'd be perfectly happy to hold if the market shut down for 10 years. (6) If you aren't thinking about owning a stock for 10 years, don't even think about owning it for 10 minutes. (7) Diversification is protection against ignorance. It makes little sense if you know what you're doing. (8) What we learn from history is that people don't learn from history. (9) Successful investing takes time, discipline and patience. No matter how great the talent or effort, some things just take time: You can't produce a baby in one month by getting nine women pregnant. And now one more quote, from Benjamin Franklin: "Put thy purse into thy head." That's what I have learned about life from living it, and living life means dealing with money, since it's the medium of exchange. Buffett puts those ideas so nicely. So, while others here have expertise in stock trading and currency markets, I think the real place to start is with life itself, because that's what we're investing FOR, and that's also what we each KNOW. "Buy what you know" is a maxim similar to the first Buffett quote. Maybe, with sufficient resources, a man does get around to buying stocks or bonds. But before that, he grows up, gets educated, and has to figure out how to house, feed and clothe himself and, if he marries, to take care of his wife, and then a family. And it may well be that the cost of doing those things devours his capital such that he can't seriously dabble in the stock or bond market. The first economic lessons are down there in housing and medicine, food and drink, and clothing, and education. So that's where I'm going to spend the second portion of my own thoughts on this. (Way, way up thread I listed all of the innate advantage of being what I presume we all are: White, North American men of at least middle-of- the- middle class status.)
