    Warning to anyone trading through an LLC

    Your comparing apples to oranges! My so called crazy leveraged trading style doesn't directly or indirectly take advantage of inflict damage to anyone but myself. I am not cursing wall st bankers, in fact I think they should leave Goldman the hell alone to, they have been used as a scapegoat for...

    Warning to anyone trading through an LLC

    I wish the SEC would stay the hell out of everyone's business. All this regulation is killing the average retail traders. I don't appreciate anyone telling me how I can use my own money. The SEC, CFTC, and NFA are a joke! I believe there needs to be regulatory bodies to oversee the financial...

    WSJ today: Democrats Weigh Tax on Financial Transactions

    They tried to do this in the Forex market years ago. I hope for the sake of my family that this does not happen because it would put the retail trader right out of business. God Damn Democrat's.

    Columbian Bank and Trust of Kansas Shut by Regulators

    And yet another one...... Integrity Bank of Alpharetta, GA. The list goes on. That makes 10 bank failures so far this year. There will be more, many more. We are going to see some big names fail in my opinion. I wonder why we don't hear about these bank failures in the mainstream media??? They...

    Barclay's bank says "head for the hills"

    I agree, the Federal Reserve has lost all its credibility, and some. All we hear in the news is that the oil speculators are running the price of oil, its their fault. This is not so, it is the weak dollar, supply/demand, fundamentals, and geo-political issues that have brought oil to the...

    Which Prop requires less than $5,000 deposit?

    I would be leery of this firm. The website is cheesy looking, picture on Home page is not even done right. Not much to the site at all! Just my 2 cents worth, and it's not much, :)

    Proposed NFA Capital Requirement

    Let me ask you something. If you had a business with employees and Workers Compensation required you to put up 50K to protect your employees, are you gonna put up 100k just to prove you will indeed protect them?? I think not! Then why should MBT put up more than what is required to prove a point?

    am I a successful trader or a loser?

    Remember, out of all the people on this forum, roughly 5-10% are actually consistently profitable. It's seems simple to me to click the check spelling tab, but as you can see, not many use it, LOL

    Bollinger Bands

    Sure but can most people handle the 13 month/ 32% drawdown before they throw in the towel and search for another system?:eek: :D

    Calling all Scalpers !

    To your question on where you can find them? Most of your bigger charting packages like Esignal and Tradestation allow you to get the real-time data for the TICK and TRIN. I have never seen a broker who has this on their platform but that doesn't mean there isn't one. A lot of your simulation...

    Which Prop requires less than $5,000 deposit?

    I have heard of a company called cygroup that requires as little as 4k deposit and gives you 20;1 leverage, no license required. They use Laser platform based on their website. Friend of mine got $.01 per share and ECN rebates with only 4k deposit. I myself would be leery of any shop that...

    Currenex, HotSpotFxi, etc. through Globaledgetrading.com

    I am familiar with them. I opened an account with them for futures and closed it after 2 weeks when I found out they were going to charge me for a demo account after 30days even though I had a well-funded account with them. I don't know about the FX side, but make sure of all the fees...

    wrong p&l

    wrong p&l

    May want to wait until it clears. I know with GFT they have a funny way of converting the currency over to USD from YEN. Did you check your actual account balance? Did it take that amount out of your total account balance? IF so, I would be on the phone till somebody answered! Good luck, let me...

    fibo experts — which fibo ?

    Wallace, You are correct in your assumption. I trade the Gartley patterns and have come up with a methodology that works for me. I use fibonacci retracements and extensions. The great thing about these is you know you entry and exits well before the pattern actually completes. I don't know...
