Thats like asking is enough to be a decent golfer or do I need to be a Tiger Woods. To be a master you can't JUST be profitable. "Profitable" is such an arbitrary term. If someone nets a buck a day technically they are profitable but come on, no one would call that masterful.

a steal..at only 25k :D

They say true mastery can only be achieved after ~10 yrs

Arthur is right, I saw a Jack Hershey post yesterday (didn't read it, it was so friggin long) and then I saw he had deleted it. What's up with this game he's playing, pretty lame.

what do you care, you work at a chop shop and sell dogshit stock to unsuspecting people...and you drive a ferrari :p

He's a kid in school and he is a hobbyist trader so its clear he doesn't have a lot of money riding on what happens. Youth and inexperience will lead to bold and, well, not so bright decision making. But he'll learn (hopefully) P.S He never goes short, you know that right?

You have to also keep in mind that stock_trad3r is a college student so he doesn't have much life experience and even less market experience so he doesn't fully understand all the angles. We should cut him a little slack.

What do you think "we" should do?

I made the blumpkin offer to my wife (as a joke) and she wasn't feeling it. I said "Honey, our vows did say for better or for WORSE"...and a blumpkin for her would definitely fall into the latter category. We had a good laugh and she can't believe some poor girl out there has ever had to...

Sorry friend, but you haven't reached the level where your trading is a reflex to the markets actions. I trade off the 5 and 1 min charts and many times my setups come and go in the blink of an eye. One moment, I'm buying 40 lots, less then 3 seconds later I'm unloading half 2 ticks higher and...

Lol, good one! :p All you DO is cry about the moderation around here. Confront..hahaha, yeah you are a tough guy there Tranny666 :cool:

Can't say I know anyone who ever got one but there is a word for it so I'm assuming someone did :D http://www.collegestories.com/storyview.aspx?sid=3905

Tranny666, don't you have some crying to do about the moderation on these boards? :cool:

:D Thank you Mandeltroll for providing great comedy relief. According to your post you currently follow the interish*t refinement thread trying to learn! And yet all this time you make it out like anyone who reads that crap is a loser. I always knew you were but thank you for verifying...

I trade discretionarily so I understand that, ok this one was more by feel then

I believe you, no pic necessary. I just don't understand why you would have an order in if the mkt hadn't touched the 820 area again? I assumed your system said "if and only if" 820 is touched or breached would an order be entered to cover some of the long position. am I mistaken?

You mention taking some off it it hits 20, then it didn't but you still took some off at 19.25. Doesnt this go against your plan? How did you decide on 19.25?

yeah, but your suggesting stupid risk (like loaning to people who probably won't be able to pay it back). Bad loans are like dominos, the chain reaction of bad loans imploding is what caused the lending to freeze up in the first place. There is a huge difference between calculated risk and...

what you're suggesting can only, eventually, make the markets crash even harder! I thought you were a Bull?

The infamous "Blumpkin" :D
