California: A Model for the Rest of the Country, Part 2

Part 1 here . On Leaving the Golden State Guest Post by NicklethroweR . Posted on the Burning Platform. The fabled Ventura Highway is all that separates my artist loft from the beach where surfing first came to the United States. Both my balcony and front patio face the freeway at about eye level and I could easily smack a tennis ball right on to the ever busy 101. Access to the beach and boardwalk is very important to a Tourist Town such as mine and I can see one underpass from my balcony and another underpass from the patio. Further up the street are two pedestrian bridges. Both have been recently remodeled so that people can not use it to kill themselves by leaping down into traffic. The traffic, just like the spice, must flow and the elites that live here do not like to be inconvenienced as they dart about between Malibu and Santa Barbara. Another feature of living where I live would have to be the homeless, the insane and the drug addicts that wander this particular...

Proper way to calculate CAGR using T-Sql for SQL Server

After reading (and attempting the solutions offered in some) several articles about SQL and CAGR,  I have reached the conclusion that none of them would stand testing in a real-world environment.

Trading / Investing Tips

Fundamentals tell you what to buy. Technicals tell you when to buy. Stick to your system of entry and stops religiously. Use stops and stick to them. When euphoria kicks in, that’s usually a local top. Much of the trading-related news & social media troll boxes are noise. Ignore them. Trades should end in 3 ways: Big Win, Small Win, Small Loss Repeat after me. “The trend is my friend.” Don’t scalp the counter-trend. Keep a trading journal. Determine flaws. Eliminate them. If you open a trade based on a high time-frame signal, don’t self-sabotage and close that trade based on a much lower time-frame signal. Good sleep, proper diet & exercise are just as important for trading as they are for most things in life. Don’t get chopped up trying to trade/scalp sideways price. Expect consolidation after large price movements, not continued volatility. All indicators are using the left side of the chart to try and predict the right side of the chart. Chart the exchange wit...
