Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single
She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.
You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.
The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
Hey mate,Celadus said:
Yeh, personally, think IB is fantastic.
The execution, data feed and commissions are as cheap as hell and very reliable (not many bad ticks) and quick.
All securities, futures, stocks, options, forex, bonds, worldwide, 70 different countries I beleive (though I don't trade in nearly that many).
No monthly fee (so not like Trade Station), only data feed (so exchange fees), which is also very cheap in comparison to other platforms.
Charting sucks, so you will need to hook Amibroker or Metastock up for this.
Easy to use and all types of orders.
Only thing I miss (but don't use much now as I look for swings, don't trade intraday often), are the market internals I used while with Trade Station.
Gaucho.....do u normally trade CL ? Thats quite a bit of contracts to buy and hold overnight on CL. How the hell do u sleep at night carrying almost a half a million worth of crude ?
Na, I normally trade the QM, but then again, RARELY will buy the underlying itself, normally stick with the equities. That being said, I use the ASX and WPL as the US does not have many oil producers per se, more simply oil services. I also check whether the stock moves in correlation with the underlying, as some do not.Wiesman44 said:
The reason I will buy CL is for one reason only, IF I am going to hold out of regular hours, as liquidity is greater. That being said, I DO NOT SLEEP if I have a few contracts open, like to watch the patters and momentum. If worse comes to worse, I will just place my stop and sleep in cash hours when liquidity is high and I don't have to worry about too much slippage if my stop is triggered.
Good few nights? This is absolute chop chop chop! Not good days for a swing trader such as myself, barely a swing to catch! Trying my best with mainly shorts open at the moment, 8 shorts and 3 longs infact open for now, but nothing is doing much.
I'm looking for a breakdown of the indices over the rest of the week, but this resilience is starting to get me edgy. Oil is cooling off again now, perhaps I can catch it's next run, if it comes to fruition. When it does, I expect gold to really explode this time around.
Now lets see if this lasts. Could very well find new lows by end of day, but it looks less and less likely
edit: Market most likely hit a bottom here. Buy @12122 and make some bank.
"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
Looks to me like the indices are forming a high tight, downward flag, ready to break. Any movement below the low point of tonight on high volume and I will short the YM.
Oil doing well, and the indices seem to have correlated themselves to this, so all the better, for now............
Been good to me lately, found a few runners!
A short on SMG has been fantastic! Check out GW, looks like it may be ready to breakout again soon! Got in just before it's recent breakout and have a buy order for a second portion set at 9.49. See how we go.
