    Becoming the Top Trader

    My Goal for 2007: Break-Even

    I am also trading from home and not in the US, which makes it extremely lonely. Even more important that you follow your rules then, otherwise it might get out on your wife, kids, job etc. I am much better trading alone now than before, and much better not beating me down when doing...

    "My greatest fear is that one day I will have to support my parents"

    Now, I am not into the hospital care in the US, but have all elderly people access to free hospital care?

    "My greatest fear is that one day I will have to support my parents"

    No, no restriction of benefits to elderly. Imagine if your kids earn a lot of money and they do not take care of you. That is the main reason. All elderly have the same right to use the elderly benefits. However, restrictions like discounts on medicine, hopital care etc are reduced the more...

    Becoming the Top Trader

    I have gone though like 500 different systems. Of course I know now the basics and how price reacts to volume etc. My main problem was to try to avoid DEALING WITH RISK by looking for the Holy Grail. I was tied up in that search until late september. As a beginner I believe many do that...
