Tuesday Notes – My Response to 99% of Blog Questions
Posted by: | CommentsOK, to try to sum this up for a lot of the questions I’ve been receiving (email box backed up quite a bit) with respect to use of complex technical analysis, statistics, use of chatrooms, etc., this video will hopefully complement the famous New York Expo presentation Kindergarten slide to explain my continuing perspective.
Guy with sword: The “trading” approach of statisticians, programmers, accountants, analysts, and chatroom traders who care far more about social needs and backslapping than running a serious and profitable trading business.
Guy with gun: Guess.
K.I.S.S. folks.
That should help further clarify my comments of the last 10 years

The Weekend Trader – TAD Observations
Posted by: | CommentsSome key thoughts and thanks from this end as we continue our transition to using Trading After Dark as our primary microphone and podium going forward.
A reminder that Episode #2 is now live on the TAD site.
“My career as a broker with some of the largest futures brokerages in the world has put me in a unique position to evaluate traders. I’ve been able to observe many of the best futures traders in the industry over the past 20 years. And what I can state with certainty is that Don Miller is one of, if not the, best futures traders I’ve seen. Great traders are able to recognize and adapt to changing market environments. They take their mistakes and use them to become better traders. Great traders possess the unique discipline to manage a losing trade as well as a winning one. These are the qualities I have witnessed Don Miller master. The fact that Don has agreed to share his experiences and insights, make this book an invaluable doctrine to all traders and investors alike.”
