I looked and voted, though I wasn't actually <i>in</i> the service myself, my Dad was. The family kind of serves too. Dad was West Point, but went Air Force (no Air Academy yet). He served in Viet Nam when I and my brother were young. I was the first male in my immediate family not to go...

I've been working from home for ten years now. You do need a separate place. Close the door, if necessary. Mine is now upstairs. I will have a place eventually above the garage we're rebuilding. That will be nice. We only have one kid and she's now 4, which is old enough to recognize...

<i>Why teach kids trading in the first place? Let them engage the cruelty of the society as early as possible?? Cheating, dishonesty, and manipulation. You name it. Or it is to offer more minors to the labor market?There are millions of better potential opportunity to do thing other than...

<i>Don't be afraid to hold overnight. Daytrading is fine but much profit is hidden between the cracks overnight.</i> That's my angle, currently. André

I have to admit, I was a little disappointed in the questions. Beforehand, Don and I discussed we would make it an Inside the Industry type of chat. However, many people brought some very basic questions on trading and platforms. What do you do but answer them? We had 75-78 people in there...

Just bumping this up to the top. Our chat with Don Bright will be starting in about 15 minutes, please join us. André

I wonder how they do that? I'm subscribing to the WJS currently, and they use that effect for all their mug shots. They can't be drawing them each time. There must be a program that makes them black and white, and then just a bit grainy, using dots instead of solid lines. It's very...

Rowerman, This screen - http://www.elitetrader.com/ch/enter.cfm - contains a Java applet that should open the chat screen. Sometimes it takes a minute or so. However, if you close that window at any time, it will kick you out of the room-closing both screens. It sounds like you might not...

Maybe my typo has inadvertently created a new acronym? prople=prop people It does seem a different type of trader. Oy. I coulda swore I spell checked that. I did fix it. André

Hey folks, This Thursday, March 13th at 4:30pm Eastern we will welcome Don Bright to the Elite Trader chat room for a discussion on the state of our industry-trading. Fresh from the Online Trading Expo, and meetings with people from all levels of trading, from Wall Street to individual...

I don't feel that I am fooling myself because... That's why I asked the question, I don't want to fool myself. I agree. The number of wins vs. losses is irrelevant. It is possible to have a win/loss ratio of 10 and still lose money over the long haul. Of course. I don't place the...

Andre, I'm always wondering... What do you do in ET Chat? You don't seem to be moderating at all other than chatting amongst the ET Chatters during slow markets... Perhaps moderating isnt' he best word. Certainly during the informal market hours chats. We don't need a moderator for that...

Ok, maybe this is splitting hairs, but I'm curious how people calculate a position in the win and loss columns if you either: buy several individual positions (one company) and sell them together or you buy a bunch (again one company), and sell it in several batches. For instance, I've been...

...the Elite Trader chat room? Opps, damn... I spamed. André

AdvancedGET is now owned by eSignal, actually. You might have to use eSignal data (not certain). Did you buy the program from your pal or copy it? I ask because I believe that even when you buy a copy from someone else 2nd hand, you have to re-register it with the company to use the data...

Yep, chat logs are usually loaded within a half hour after the end of the event. You can find a current list of our past chat logs here: http://www.elitetrader.com/ch/. The TFMS log will be found there as well. André

Also, folks... Brandon will be joining us in the Elite Trader Chat Room this Thursday, March 6th at 4:30pm. Using Multiple Time Frames: Most traders are so busy looking at their 1 minute and 5 minute charts that they neglect the big picture. Even those that do look at bigger timeframes...

how can you even consider scalping through a per share broker such as IB? If you scalp for pennies, that would be 1/2 of your total profit right there! Talk about cutting overhead... What I've been doing ammounts to scalping. I'm not doing any kind of scale yet, and may never. If I just...
