U.S. stock market — caught between a rock and a hard place

October 26, 2011/by Peter Brandt

Don’t expect a follow through trend anytime soon in U.S. stocks. This market is about to get volatile in a relatively tight range. At least, that is what the chart is telling me. The chart of the nearby S&P futures contract shows that the market is between a rock and a hard place. Above the […]

What is the %win vs. %loss ratio of your present trading scheme?

October 25, 2011/by Peter Brandt

I am gathering data sets for posts I will eventually write on risk management based on probability theory. You will all be shocked with the results of the modeling.

New poll: As a percent of trading capital, what is your average risk per trading event?

October 18, 2011/by Peter Brandt

Please answer this poll. Be honest — I have no way of knowing who participated or who answered what. I plan to convert the results into a data set, that when combined with the data from a couple of future polls, will allow me to do some posts on risk management and probability theory. [poll […]
