hi does anyone know where the thread called 'trading naked' is located i'm trying to show it to my brother in law and cant find it. Thank you in advance

Thanks, really interesting point. this is the kind of movement that has me nonplussed at times - good insight into why the market can turn about tail for seemingly no reason.

ok i was rambling a bit lol but i think people got the gist :)

ok thanks i will check it out...was having problems getting the results of the bond auctions in good time last week so this is definitely useful info for me

Thanks...thats given me some food for thought...I will let it sink in for a bit before I come back with any more questions lol. p.s jcali (You obviously are interested in making bets based on news. ) I think that my 'making bets based on the news' is probably not a good thing and I need to stop...

ok, sorry to labour the point but - say the next non farms payroll came out at +750k against an estimate of +150k but the price action on the market afterwards showed you should sell. Would you sell, stay out of the market or put a buy on. What I mean is how far would you let price action...

HI, can anyone tell me what size moving average to use if i am looking at end of day volume for the DJIA. I want to know if the volume is above or below the yearly average. Is the yearly average the best timeframe to use or should i set it for monthly or quarterly...or something else lol. Thanks...

lol didnt trade in the end. just watching out to see if possible to catch a reversal but will probably stay out. The light volume is spooking me ;)

should i trade today when US markets are only open 1/2 day? Will volume be too light and volatility to high. I trade DJIA futures.
