    The ACD Method

    The time period between Thanksgiving and New Years is the most consistently bullish time of the year. I would not want to be fading this. Not to mention my number lines are really starting to firm up on the upside.

    Has this place died?

    This comes back to intellect though. I've never practiced medicine a day in my life but I know it's not easy becoming a doctor. Intelligent people understand that you can't become a millionaire or billionaire easily doing anything. Nor do they ever expect. But the children who are...

    The ACD Method

    The cracks are holding up OK. The heating oil crack is faring better then rbob. The refinery margins are still very robust. Especially considering that most of the gulf is refining heavy oil that is trading at a $15 discount to WTI.

    Has this place died?

    Absolutely. ET's greatest asset is probably it's archives. For the initiated, there is a priceless amount of good info tucked away in the archives. But very few newbies these days really come here to learn. I think the culture has changed there as well.

    Has this place died?

    No, not BigMikes and not T2W. I'm sorry, I don't want to share them because honestly, I don't want the posters here to infect other higher quality sites with their BS. If you are in the business and take this stuff seriously you either know about them already or have the means to find them...

    Breaking in the business

    To be honest, your story is pretty common. I know several people that have done the same and actually in your boat. This business is very very structured, for better or for worse. Outside of starting your own company, if you want to play, you have to follow the proper orthodoxy. The last 5...

    Do i qualify to be a prop trader?

    No dude, see this is what I'm talking about on this website. There is such a fundamental void of mathematical understanding or quite frankly, just plain accounting 101. The amount of notional a firm turns over in a day has to do with frequency, not capital backstop. I use to trade for one of...

    Futures trading for a prop firm

    This is what you said. Yes, they make you show them you have some minimal ability, and by minimal, I mean minimal. I got news for ya capadre, EVERY prop firm in the world is going to make you show them you have some extraordinary skill, whether it be your pedigree, your track record or...

    Has this place died?

    I know I'm going to get shit for this, but having been on other trading forums where the avg poster has a higher level of education, there tends to be a lot more civility. I just think ET targets the bottom of the barrel so to speak. There are some really high quality forums out there with a...

    Do i qualify to be a prop trader?

    This is so far from reality it's almost comical. The avg "true" prop firm in Chicago has about 3 to 5 private partners with on avg 5 to 10 million in partner equity. That's it. All these firms are one bad year from insolvency. I honestly think that most the guys on here that lecture others...

    The ACD Method

    It's going to be extremely difficult to get gold and silver to rally with the Dollar as strong as it is. This dollar move is epic.

    Bill Cosby: Don't Bring Race Into Discussions About George Zimmerman and Trayvon

    No dude, "you" convicted him. The "women" accused him you ignorant fuck. You can't accuse him as a third person as the act wasn't done to you. Learn the fucking difference.
