    Please criticize my Stock swing strategy

    Indeed you can. I have looked at 'pairtrader' in the past, rubbish. Never read it. Pair trading is ok. It is not risk free, it is not truly market neutral. You can lose on both legs of the trade. It does however throw up interesting trades from time-to-time, or even day trades to scalp. The...

    Please criticize my Stock swing strategy

    Clearly he is not trading a 'pairs' strategy. Just as clearly he is not trading any form of arb, and just as clearly that is what I said. What he is doing is, intuitively, he is trying to create a market neutral strategy. While a pairs strategy is not market neutral, it is a step in the right...

    Please criticize my Stock swing strategy

    You are essentially trading a pairs strategy, without any implicit or explicit correlations. It is the correlations that provide the 'edge' in a pairs strategy. Usually a pairs strategy requires a longer time frame than 1 week, although you can scalp them on a day trader basis. Some examples of...

    Legal advice needed URGENTLY!

    The contract is stating far more than that. The construction implies that the intellectual property and provision of services are contingent upon each other. This could be read, and probably should be read, that any IP created while under contract to the Company, those rights vest in the...

    Can you be long and short at same time?

    The answer to the question is yes you can. The more pertinent question is why you you would want to. Only in a pure arbitrage is the position risk free, and then it is highly unlikely that you are trading the same market: viz, buy gold in London, sell gold in Hong Kong. Therefore unless the...

    How would you interpret this chart?

    The chart is bullish by definition. In any individual case that means nothing. In a sample of 1000 or more, statistically you would expect to make money going long.

    Best Thread Keynes Vs. Hayek

    Taking the NHS example: The government places a maximum price [ceiling] on the NHS. This is done via a maximum expenditure allocated. If the price ceiling is lower than the market price, shortages will appear, as, more is demanded than supplied at that ceiling price. That is the theory. The...
