    How much should a "good" trader earn?

    OK will admit i did not write it clearly as I would have liked. I am saying that after taxes and retirement saving eat up 50-60% of your gross there are other things we have as traders that many dont have as wage earners. Wage earners are not growing a business for the most part. I try to...

    How much should a "good" trader earn?

    If you make your living as a trader you will typically find that at least 50-60% is eaten up by taxes and ideally, retirement savings. Another 20% would be nice to grow your account with leaving maybe 20-30% to live on. So even if you are making possibly 250k a year trading you are living...

    to those that bought the spike today

    I attempted to get long at 1230 on the NQ on the second move to 1229 but before my order was even in the price had jumped back over 1232. That was one wild minute. I used a limit order instead of my usual stop market which I think was appropriate at the time. What I wanted was to use 1223.50...
