I keep shutting off subscribing to this thread because my email inbox is flooded with notices of new posts (trades).

So then when fundamental info/analysis is posted I miss it. I don't have time to wade through posts that aren't useful to my trading. But I do need to know new fundamental analysis information.

No need to keep getting your email flooded with junk. Start a journal and other fundamentals traders will post there. It only take 1 second to start one. You will have everything the way you want it. When i wanted things the way i wanted , i had a journal. It ONLY had 609,000 views and was full of junk. But that's the junk i wanted.

OP's statement above. I really can't understand the discussion on fundamentals. It is what it is. We are here to trade and make money. News is for CNBC armchair QB's like Gartman who was bullish on CL but didn't have a position couple of days ago. By the time CL goes to $30 or to $90(-if it goes) it would've traded in probably $100's of zig zag patterns. Just this week alone we went from 50 to 54 and back to almost $50 for an $8 round trip. How much did you profit from it ?



You must have missed SMCJB's post were he explained that your time frame and other's time frame are different.

As long as they are trades I don't have an issue but posting opinions and gibberish doesnt really help anyone. Post away gibbersih too for all I care it's not "my" thread. The value of any thread is always in the quality of it's posters

~Fundamentals are generally longer term, but can also be short term eg trading figures. Used by producers, institutions, hedge funds, retail etc; volume is in spot, fwds, and occasionally futures.

~Technicals are often used by shorter term traders, generally in futures....who may also use fundamentals........for context, confluence etc.

Theres an overlap, there always will be (in most markets).

Always good to have context, no matter if you agree with the reasoning.

So why split the thread?

I agree, it all matters, posting fundamentals, technicals, journals… so no need to split the thread.

@Big Mike

When someone subscribe to a thread while some posters are on your ignored list do we get a notice when those ignored on your list post a comment?

I believe the answer is no.
