It is working so far. It would be great to have a 10 year run with this.

[sammy1024]

money money money. never has been this easy to make.

drink here for steve........

[sammy1024]

same thing. up 31 percent since nov, nice gain in this market.

[FreeMarkets]

Not sure. Maybe some but not the full boat. You?

[sammy1024]

you going to go without margin on the next buy signal? it will be hard to stomach a 28 percent drawdown.

[sammy1024]

from what i have seen from search engines. they are all in pretty high demand.

[FreeMarkets]

OT: What makes you think basis? Just wondering how much research you have done.

[sammy1024]

hi
still looking. i took an insurance class and am going to join metlife to see how that goes. i think basis is a good one to koin these days.

[FreeMarkets]

OT: How is your SAP job search going? What area is the most lucrative these days? I think it used to be HR, but I have no idea now.

[FreeMarkets]

Right, I wish. Hopefully 1) he won't get bought out by some hedge fund 2) it will keep working and 3) it won't become really expensive.

[sammy1024]

Hi sammy
Things are ok. I am still trading NERS. I have been tracking $TRIN and Vol. on the 5 min. Seems to help but a work in progress. I notice over time SET up is the most important aspect in my eye. Along with set ups the stop has to be un ? able. Other wise trading is trading. Sometimes goes well and other times choppy. Everybody gets what they want but not always when they want it.
HOw is MVP doin for ya? Steve seems like a good man.

[sammy1024]

hi sbird. i am trading mvp's system these days. we will see how it goes. how about u? how is ners?

[FreeMarkets]

That's a good idea. I am short MZZ in my IB account. It was easy to pick up shares at the price posted.

[sammy1024]

gonna do the piggybacks from now on without margin with mzz for shorts and longs since it has good volume. might want to look into it since piggybacks add alot of gains. steve for president. sure looks like that.

[FreeMarkets]

I was looking at tc (20 days delayed) and it was still long. What do you want to bet they were whipsawed again? LOL. I hope they were. Those guys are a dishonest bunch.

[FreeMarkets]

Hopefully it will continue to perform.

[sammy1024]

same thing with mvv. i am gonna follow all the signals now, but without margin at first. he has a nice system. we can retire soon.

[FreeMarkets]

I didn't do the piggyback. I am up between 7% and 9% depending on which account I used (I got different prices). Interesting that eem is up more than vwo.

How about you?

[sammy1024]

what percent are u up since u bought vwo? did u do a piggyback buy too?

[FreeMarkets]

OK, good luck. I am partial to certifications. I have certifications from IBM (DB2), Oracle, Teradata and Microsoft. I am a pretty good test taker though.

I haven't taken many tests at brainbench.com, but they are also pretty good because they are open book. In real life, you can look up something when you have a question. You are not forced to memorize the answer to every piece of trivia before starting your work day. On the other hand, brainbench may not be as respected. I think they have an ABAP exam out there you can take.

As an aside, people have asked me which test was the hardest of all tests I have taken. Some guess the Mensa exam but actually that was pretty easy (they get you with the number of questions, not the complexity). The hardest exam I have ever taken was the bar exam. There were two right answers for every question. LOL. Luckily, I passed. That was 15 years ago.

No test can replicate real life, but if you have no or little experience and you want to compete with others, it could be a factor.

From yesterday "
On the daily the swing IWM continue short would have been 76.15 ??? I am presently not taking this trade."

[sammy1024]

thanks for the suggstions, i will look into them.

...by the way, there are a few great places to volunteer:

1. Churches. They are always looking for help, especially the big ones that may be running SQL Server or other databases and applications.

2. At your current company. Step out and volunteer on the side to do something technical for guys in the office. That's how my brother broke into IT.

3. Check out craiglist and other job sites for companies looking for developers who want to take an equity stake instead of getting paid. If all else fails, you have something real to put on your resume.

You may already be in IT though, so this may not matter.

[FreeMarkets]

Sorry, I don't. Did you get certified? There are a few good ways to break into IT (it may not be relevant with sap, but here goes):

1. Use your other skils to get into a company that is using the technicology that you want to break into. For example, I wanted to be a DBA years ago when I was a developer. A small company wanted a developer and I told them I would do it if I could be their DBA as well. If I wanted to get into SAP right now, I would leverage my DB2 expertise to get into a company using SAP and I would make that a condition of employment.
2. Volunteer. I know of several people who got jobs by offering to do work for free at first. Like a drug addict, they always come back for more if it is good. LOL
3. Find a company that sends in a team of people. That way, the client has hired the company, not you individually. These may be hard to find -- they are more common with gov't contracts.
4. Get certified (not as prevelant anymore). When IT was really hot in the late 90's, getting certified was a good path. Now everyone is certified, so it may not be as easy.

Just some thoughts.

[CITYHAWK]

I do a little teaching here and there. Music, sanskrit and yoga postures & relaxation are the topics. I can say I rely on it for $$$. I am working on the classic "Learning to trade for a living"
How about you amigo Sammy?
