I just can't do anything right . My brain's melted like a slice of cheese - I see what I gotta do and still do it wrong, I lose money every day and I don't even care. I've got 300 dollars left till I'll stop trading forever. It's not like I blew all the money I had - I've got enough to live...

I didn't expect so many replyes on my question. Thank you all, gentlemen, I really apreciate your help. So, the day after I opened this thread I think I found the reason why I overtrade. It's not just the luck of discipline, even though it's still the main reason. But, I found out that I trade...

You sure know what you're talking about. I couldn't say it better. I realize that what I'm doing is a madness but can't help it. Even if I get a nice trade - I take the profit just because I want to reenter the trade on a pullback or even take an opposite trade to get those 3-5 cents. I got...

Looks like we're gonna get a nice rally for the next few days. Nasdaq and SP breaking out of downtrend and I think I see a doublebottom on QQQ's chart. Any comments are welcome.

My advice - just go with IB, dude.

It's different, because they don't work for ECNs. It's a propshop This is how it works. These guys who make 10.000 to 100.000 for the firm are robots. They're very patient. All they do is bid and offer. Stocks goes down a penny - they buy mor on the bid. It goes lower - they buy more...

No, you got it wrong. There is a firm that doesn't charge its traders any commissions but pays them 30%. They usually trade 500.000 + shares a day and make somewhat between $10.000 and $100.000 a month (before they get their 30%). It's not a real trading but it pays their bills. They traded...

Good one!:D

Maybe fractions too...
