Weekend
Well the market is closed, bummer. I go into withdrawl after every Friday. Well with no trading today there will be no trading news obviously. Did some more research on Ruby though. Came across a great video on how to build a blogging engine through Ruby. How ironic. Maybe I'll have to ditch Blogspot eventually. Here's the link to the video. Very cool.
Still hammering away at the books. Currently reading "Trade Your Way to Financial Freedom" by Van Tharpe. Excellent book so far. You never really consider the psychological aspects of trading until you put your own money on the line. You have to experience those emotions of fear and greed for yourself. Also, I'm looking into purchasing "The Logical Trader" by Mark Fisher. Has anyone read this? I'd like to get familiar with the ACD Method and I guess this book will be the required reading for that. Anyways I'm curious if this book is worth the money. Oh and here's a link for a free 1 year subscription to Futures Magazine. Oy! Time to go get some grub.

Hi Jeremy
I can recommend Mark Fisher's ACD, its by no means a mechanical system but it gives you a framework in which to view the markets that I personally have found quite helpful. Whist your waiting for the book to arrive check out these video's from a Mark Fisher seminar on ACD. Quality's not great but they're entertaining and educational.
