On the NQ, 6 week moving average is 47%wins, 45% losses and 8% scratch.

I've yet to hit 7 figures which I believe is doable with the ES but not with the NQ as it will not accommodate enough size to avoid getting slugged on slippage. My R/R was more modest on the ES but the win/loss percentage was better....until July of 2016. There are many traders who make more...

I think he is pretty good at ferreting out the charlatans but doesn't understand the nature of day trading.

Averaging around 10, which is more than the average 6 signals on the ES. But the ES got thin on the bone for the latter half of 2016.

A round trip of $8 is way too much, a futures commission should be under $4. Currently I am trading the NQ, average win is 19 ticks and average loss is 10 ticks, my commission costs amount to a tick and a half per pair of trades. We day traders don't concern ourselves with such as % per year or...

Talking shop and lending direction and advise to noobs, although I often question my presence here. :D For years, a group of us had a private chat room but we broke it up as it cost entries. In ET, there are no social obligations...just come and go as well as participate in discussions at will.

I doubt it but it works for me...do what works for you. I don't encourage people to get into day trading as it is tough to master but I also don't want to discourage those who have the drive and work ethic. And there is no lack of negativity and discouragement on ET.

I pay $3.63 round trip per contract. As that is the only material business expense for most of us, it works just fine IF one has developed the skills and disciplines necessary...and while most fall by the wayside, many do ultimately succeed. It just ain't an easy journey.

It's not 500% on leveraged capital, only cash on cash. You can't use the same metrics for a retail trader that you do for portfolio management....entirely different universe.

Retail works just fine...just not at his numbers.

Breath work has always been a large part of Asian health practices. You don't need to get esoteric about, simply taking deep, slow breaths for short periods is good for you.

Without Dodd and Franks, the movie is just a side bar.

I had to take sabbaticals until I discovered that one could "ignore" Surf and his pathetic hydra-headed sock puppet.

:D

Would an Arturo Fuentes Gran Reserva qualify as a super food?

Despite sounding far fetched, I like the way that flowed.

Had to take a couple of pics until ET would upload...cropped etc.

It's an oblong medallion, about 1 1/4 by 3/4 inch.
