I did the stats some time ago and posted them on here, TST have 90% failure rate for sonething like $2k in fees per trader. Look, remote doesn't work, we were considering setting up a training academy. The top prop firms are more like institutions, the entry process is no different, if it's...

You mean like 100ms charts, hedge funds only I'm afraid. You can try Tradestation and CQG which go down to 1sc.

I came by to pick up https://www.elitetrader.com/et/threads/who-should-i-ignore.320577/page-4#post-4645818 and https://www.elitetrader.com/et/threads/trading-experience.320574/page-4#post-4646658 nice to see things haven't changed. Everyone still trying to generate wealth by using their income...

They have patience, they have capital, they have an infrastructure, all the things retail don't have. The patience is there as the number of viable trades is much lower than retail understand, the capital is there to leverage when a viable trade comes online, the infrastructure is there to make...

Of course it's horribly complicated, countertrend is like leverage on leverage, one mistake and you lose your capital. Yes it's true everything is correlated these days, but they don't normally all go down at once. The chance of you timing a countertrend is near zero, but if you do you can...

Not exactly what was being asked, instead of trading what about investing.

If you have an amount, any amount, $1,000, $1,000,000, to invest in stocks, bonds, futures, forex, crypto, via managed, index etf, daytrading, what return do you expect per year on the capital?

I can't resist, trend trading is 10x more efficient than daytrading, and countertrend is 10x more efficient than trend trading, countertrend netting 100x profit to effort over daytrading. So why the stress, because if you miss even one anomaly you will evaporate your capital, countertrend is...

You mean something like crypto or forex

Look, I've just come back from being invited for a couple of bottles of wine at what I would presume is a famous writer, given the stories told. Your issue is incredibly simple, either an event has occurred or you suspect will occur that will reduce your algo profitability. What you are...

I agree with absolutely everything you've said, but if I have an opportunity to stick to the governments I will take it, and I have a feeling this is the general concept of all Tesla owners, even if it means a capital loss.

Be a little more respectful, you obviously don't know where the circuit breakers and limits are so I will put it in more "simplistic" terms, if there is a flash crash can they delete trades causing you a capital loss, yes, can they delete stop orders causing you a capital loss, yes, can they...

You mean having experience of brokers doing exactly what you are asking about is not useful, fair enough, will leave it to the theorists.
