The Weekend Shmooze

As I grow and develop my trading prowess, naturally so does my blog. It is my intention to enhance the benefits of this journal so that I and others can find some meaning, organization and answers to questions that will help map our course during the trading journey. Thus, the creation of "The Weekend Shmooze".

Shmooze (also spelled shoomz) is Yiddish and defined as "to hang out with; to chat; engage in casual talk". So I find the title to this new component of the journal to be apropos in reference to what I want to accomplish...sharing odds & ends of information.

On occasion I'll add some references to this forum via posts which will supplement the many great resources I have listed near the end of this page.

I recently found some great posts within a couple of my favorite blogs that I regularly visit and wanted to share in my forum. The referenced trading blogs are ES specific and the posts I'm sharing were written by "guest" authors.

The first guest blog entry is found in the "Don Miller Trading Journal". This was written by one of his "Jellies" who, if I didn't know better could have been writing by a member within E-Nation (Emini Wizard System). I recognized many common experiences and associations this guest author describes regarding his learning experience.

The second guest post was found in "E-mini Player: Emini S&P 500 Futures Trading Journal". Previous comments I've read by author Ziad, found him to be a very astute trader who shares much wisdom and practical trading advise. In addition, I've seen "E-mini Player" and his blog develop and evolve into a worthy resource for serious ES traders to visit and add to their arsenal of learning.

The aforementioned posts will be a nice introduction to these informative blogs. I would suggest you consider adding these two blogs to your regular reading routine and believe you will definitely find many gold nuggets of useful information within these journals if you decide to visit them regularly.

Trade Well !
