    A list of all scam unregulated 3rd party educational vendors

    I find it strange that a forum would be listed as a scam. There is a lot of good info at Big Mike's. I especially enjoy the section on Trader Psychology. The only thing Mike charges for is $100 to become an Elite Member. But again there is plenty of good stuff in the free section (which is...

    Scott Kaminski

    Same thing happened to me a few years ago. Paired with another person and spent the whole time reading/discussing notes. Bummer.

    SPX Credit Spread Trader

    I'm sorry, but what is a CTM spread? You probably defined it earlier in the thread, but I am not familiar with your vernacular. Thanks!

    Why do I do what I know I shouldn't be

    Hey Steve, I agree with you. Mark gave a very thoughtful reply that had me thinking about how I can improve my trading :)

    DSL or Cable for fast Trading?

    Are you saying that your DSL is marginally faster than your cable connection now? I just went to the San Diego Fair yesterday, and was checking out AT&T DSL which had a booth. By the way, is it easy to configure your dual WAN router, or do you have to be a computer geek to do it? Thanks!

    That's what I thought too. I was thinking about how to get both - DSL for a backup....

    DSL or Cable for fast Trading?

    Hi, I currently have Adelphia cable and am paying around $60 per month. I am annoyed that the cable goes out at least once per month during trading hours and am considering switching to DSL. I hear cable is faster and am wondering if DSL is fast enough for trading (scalping)? Do any of...

    Tight Stops

    ttw144, Why don't you just ignore Steve46 and Cheese and go back to discussing your charts. Arguing with them is stupid and a waste of a thread, IMO.

    Wash Sales Rules

    Well, I have both wins and losses in the same stocks - the same day, or certainly within 30 days. Does this mean I can't reduce my gains by my losses? Thank you

    Wash Sales Rules

    Hi, I am a part-time daytrader (scalper) and trade the same securities day after day before I go to work (I live in California). How do the wash sales rules affect me? Is there somewhere I can go to look that information up and/or any advice for someone in my situation? Thank you in...

    Why is the Futures market supposedly more difficult?

    Are the net profits after commissions? I am interested in hearing more about your system. You can PM if you like. Trader2Be

    Are some markets more profitable (or less risky) to trade than others?

    I really enjoy living in the San Diego area. I can trade in the morning before work (6:30 to 8:15am) and catch the last hour of the trading day during my lunch. If I was a full-time trader, I could go to the beach every afternoon :D T2B
