dna, I wouldn't really say that I have a theory on all of this. I'm just curious about the effects of one's past on their trading. It sounds like you weren't spoiled, and are being persistent in trying to achieve your goal. Maybe it's less about who's money your trading with, and more...

I retract my statement about the your "demise." We'll call it a break then. Don't mean to kick you while you are down. Thanks for your contribution, I was curious. Good luck getting back into the game.

I do not trade for a living, but I do trade, and I have funded every penny of it. I have been trading for three years, first stocks(swing and day), then some options, and within the past year, futures(day only). I have managed to keep the account positive and have started to see more...

Not sure if this thread will develop into anything worthwhile, but I’m curious as to what other people think about the following: After reading about the demise of G. Gekko, and reading about the woes of other young traders, it got me thinking about what these particular members childhoods...

Yeah, we're going to take control of Iraq's oil, just like we did to Kuwait's oil after we extinguished the fires Saddam set on his way out. I wish the anit-war crowd would make a more intelligent argument. This "blood for oil" BS is getting really old, and more absurd as time goes on. You...

I have downloaded a raw data file from quotetracker and loaded it into Excel. I want to find a way to create a chart with this data for backtesting, but I have to be able to extract the periodic open, high, low, and close to create the chart. The data I have is time of last sale, price of last...

I have been unable to see any realtime bid/ask data on the Mini Hang Seng. Can anyone tell me what the spread is like on average? I have been trying the free trial at www.futuresource.com(they don't show bid/ask) and have found that the last-price data is very volatile and I don't know if...

Hey Def, Do you know the timeline on the Qcharts integration?

I've had a fair amount of success daytrading(stocks), but I have a full time day job and the time will soon come when I can no longer trade during the day because I will be too busy with my job. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can utilize off market hours(4:00pm EST - 8:30pm EST) to...
