Since this thread seems to be a little on the silly side, here is what I can offer: Buy Amibroker (search for it on Google...) Then either...
I've already read the replies from many of the guys who were in the business and who have an opinion. Here is a different take from someone who...
Mark, Nice post about your trading style. I mis-spoke when I posted that I am scared of risk... the proper phrase should have been "I am...
Hello Mark, Sage advice about FOTM positions. Most of your posts offer this type of observation about the strategies outlined in posts from...
