    ...having said that, Marty, says day trading the ES is the most challenging thing on earth, in short he doesn't recommend it. This comes from perhaps the best intraday s&p futures trader ever.

    UK taxation for futures and options trading

    Imho, yes. My accountant (many years ago now), told me to do some taxable income work rather than just trading, said the gains/losses from trading would then almost certainly be viewed as capital gains/losses for the purposes of tax i.e. cgt would apply and not income taxes.

    Goal in 2015: $92k to $150k

    Your numbers are very good. Keep it up and you'll be into millions. From the point of investors, they'll be looking at performance with at least 100k. The current investor mentality, however, is to run when they see a monthly drawdown of more than a few percent, so those occasional 9% monthly...

    What is the fastest time you attained your diploma?

    Yes, this is correct, it's important to realise the benefits of trading for yourself such as being able to have more leisure time in which to live life. I'm doing ok, slight drawdown at present, trying for the next step of making 10x of what i have now within 5-10 years.
