damian 0 Posted December 26, 2002 Share Posted December 26, 2002 a discussion board regarding computerised commodity trading, or more particularly the philosophy and psychology behind markets and the speculative techinique (entry, exit and position size) that can be coded into a model to remain emotionally distant from the activity whilst profiting from the weakness of human crowd psychology, being: hope, greed and fear.

snowboard_freak 0 Posted December 27, 2002 Share Posted December 27, 2002 I post on one other forum at the moment, but it's not as frequently as it used to be. It is called RTAW (Reefing the Australian Way). It is a forum for saltwater aquarium hobbiest's. It is a great source of information actually. I used to post on a few more but i got sick of them for various reasons. Link to post Share on other sites
OzOzOz 2 Posted December 27, 2002 Share Posted December 27, 2002 Actually no. They are usually awful and a pain to get to interesting stuff. This one really is great - best one I've seen. It's really come to life since last season. Link to post Share on other sites
damian 0 Posted December 27, 2002 Share Posted December 27, 2002 that other forum I was a regular on was great as it was and still is my only real interest (outside of recreational activities). On the flipside, my over the top participation in this forum is borne from the void that is usually filled when one 'has a life' Oh, and also my job is getting duller by the day and this is a great way to learn about boarding and japan.

enderzero 0 Posted December 28, 2002 Share Posted December 28, 2002 I used to be active in a variety of email list-servs not unlike this, but it has been a long time. I was itching to get on a forum last summer when I stumbled into this. Boy am I glad I did. This is really a classy forum with cool people and no real dumbasses. Had I not got to know some of the people here I may not have decided to come to Japan next month. Thanks everyone. Link to post Share on other sites

Raury 0 Posted December 30, 2002 Share Posted December 30, 2002 Um, I have a confession to make, I am a discussion board junkie I post on the following forums: Sno Info, or properly: ski.com.au Snow Net forums Works Escorts which is about small English Ford cars, before you get the wrong idea. and Austin 1800 forum So it shouldn't be too hard to work out what my 2 "hobbies" are.

damian 0 Posted December 30, 2002 Share Posted December 30, 2002 ok, Mr Raury's two hobbies.... 1. snow, or no doubt powder. 2. escorts (yeah, good one mate. sure you mean the cars). So powder + escorts = whores and coke! Link to post Share on other sites
