    Trading on the road from a motorhome?

    I will investigate that set up thanks. How much data do you think would be necessary? Im figuring a budget of $100-150 mth should cover 2-4 hours/day of internet usage along with using wifi available at campgrounds etc.

    Karen the Supertrader - TastyTrade Hybrid Experiment

    I'm new to this journal but not new to selling premium. Can't you just do a diagonal roll up on the calls? Just ratchet up until you catch up with the market or the market corrects itself, especially on the call side. What I've found from experience on the call side as soon as I have a limit...

    Futures up almost 2% - Tuesday looks good

    Nah I think floor traders will catch this low, not the afterhours crowd. Should at least test the low from Monday at 1830 or so beyond that Oct 14' low right around the corner at around 1813 on the ES before this is all over. Too many peeps bot the low this morning claiming victory (me...

    Basic question for experienced options traders

    Not a bad strategy idea long term, problem is that it doesn't take much from a global, macro perspective to control/manipulate the prec metals market. Unfortunately world governments believe that rewarding the sheeple consumers and punishing the frugal people of the world is the way to go! :(...

    Do you even enjoy trading?

    I said 'like' to be done by noon, not 'am' done by noon, in otherwords it part of my daily goal as well. Why do people insist on taking things out of context! wtf?

    Do you even enjoy trading?

    For me when I scale in at a percieved level, Im hoping that my order fills at an exact level then retraces/rebounds, sometimes it is but most times not. Here's an example, if I expect the market to stall during an upmove to say, ES 1320.00 I'll put an order to sell lmt at 1319.75 if it fills...

    Do you even enjoy trading?

    Thanks dolphin. Here is another post I read recently on ET from an experienced trader. It basically reiterates what I just wrote. I'm thinking this is an integral part of the grail that all of us are seeking (maybe its a bigger part of the grail?) That is making it, keeping it and then having...

    Do you even enjoy trading?

    What's not to enjoy about trading. You can make it what you want it to be. Im finding that one of the biggest setups for me is patience and goal setting. Holding off the marginal trades and waiting for the odds to tilt in my favor (or my percieved favor, lol). I don't want to write about my...

    Wall Street II is a Disaster

    Just seen the movie tonight, I was niether disappointed nor impressed. I thought the original Wallstreet was tough if not impossible to overtake as it was a truly iconic movie that no doubt was instrumental in shaping an era. I thought last year when I heard the Shia the beef would be playing...
