    Day 63.....

    Looking at your thread, I now see I was right. Congrats Funky. You are now starting to realize, that you must BE A MACHINE CONNECTED TO A MACHINE. I've always said that if Mr.Spock were real, he would be the richest trader in the world. Why? No EMOTION. Believe me, I am the furthest thing from a...

    Early exits are killing me.

    When I first started I trading, I blamed my losses and early exits (which I also saw as losses) on the "conspiracy theory". The moment I got in, it stopped moving. The stock would move against me, then I would get out for a loss or exit early, and the moment I got out they ran the stock higher...

    Pampered or humble beginnings

    I put in more hours before I got my working papers than most college grads put in within the first few years of attaining their degree. I don't know about child labor laws, but I do know I had to provide for my family, regardless of my age. Funny... I didn't mention my coaching, or what the fee...

    Firewall

    Some routers have a built-in "hardware firewall". You should have two firewalls, one software and one hardware. I'm not a techie, but I have been burned a couple of times.

    Windows 2000 Pro vs. XP

    I am not a tech person, but have much "trial by fire" experience. Dual boot in some cases causes conflicts in the "registry". No matter how many times you edit ("REGEDIT") in the command prompt, the propensity for the problem is still there. From what I understand, WIN 2K is nothing more Win...

    fake linearity of life and complacency of people

    "Subscribers here by thousands float, and jostle one another down, Each paddling in his leaky boat, and here they fish for gold and drown. Now buried in the depths below. New mounted up to heaven again, they reel and stagger to and fro, At their wits' end. like drunken men. Meantime, secure on...

    Pampered or humble beginnings

    Great thread: I began working at 10 y/o, became a manager of a local bagel store when I was 12. I wrote out checks, kept inventories, ordered merchandise, and fired people twice to three times my age. In a broken family, I worked 18 hour days in the summer, and 8 hour days during school...

    A day trading system

    a34567: It's very easy to complicate the right algorythm for successful trades. Josh Levine (creator / programmer) of ISLD, and some other guys spent alot of $$ and time trying to build a similar system, which was automated around 1997. The system FAILED, there were so many market variables...

    CORRECTION..... 3) There have been major NASD reforms, pushed by the SEC. Therefore, you may not be able to register with a firm (which you need to do to take the exams and keep the licenses) and not work their full-time . Unless you know a B/D owner and their compliance officer (24). The...

    You may have already done this, but be sure that you're sharing the files on each machine. If you did, you may have shared the files and required a password to view.

    Trading is best done without being influenced by outside opinions?

    Now I just need to keep in mind that your question is about "market opinion". While that could be a number of things, I'll assume that your talking about "what to do next". With that... I look to no one other than the market. Yes, I do have a few friends and associates that are great traders...

    Awesome uptik, congratulations. I remember that feeling. Great to see you went with the Netgear. Here's what I recommend you do: 1) Make sure you change the SSID (at minimum) by default it's "Wireless", or have WEP enabled, select 128bit, and then put together a 26 character alphanumeric...
