Umm, if you look for a mentor, 99% of the people who accept your offer probably don't know how to trade. Be very very very careful. If they offer to coach you free or for a low price (couple of hundred) and show you some pointers, that is probably OK. But do some looking at their...

IBs does not mean Interactive Brokers. It means investment banks. Insurance companies: Bonds, currencies and other financials. Bloomberg terminal based.

Which part of "work on trading floors" did your brain not understand? T R A D I N G .... F L O O R The same brain that uses disproven methods to "make a ton of money????" Or the same brain that counters evidence with a few examples and thinks that is statistically meaningful...

Quote from Martinghoul: Incorrect and I completely disagree with a whole number of points. Firstly, the fact that there's an institutional study out there that argues a specific point is irrelevant. I can point you to a whole bunch of rigorous academic research out there that is either...

I work in the financial industry, including IBs, electronic trading floor and the trading arm of insurance companies. Stuff like Amy's voodoo levels is roundly chuckled. Well it doesn't work. But she believes in it. So therefore, it must have value. Um, year right.

Quote from amytrade: And yet YOU are still reading and posting your garbage. That seals the deal, if it looks like an idiot, sounds like an idiot, SMELLS like an idiot, YOU must be an idiot! Garbage is your dept. I appeal to solid evidence and you appeal to vapors. If it looks like a...

The point is, they DON'T work. I posted a serious institutional study a couple pages back that strongly proves they are no more useful than any other level. Speculating on the reasons they do is a cosmic waste of time. Beliefs and opinions mean nothing. Evidence and proof mean everything...

It works for Amy? Where is the evidence for this? She claimed in another thread that she makes "a ton of money" from this stuff. I asked for statements to prove this claim and she went quiet. The truth is more likely that she is a mathematical maladroit and a papertrading pauper. I have...

during the great depression, most the commodities absolutely collapsed. this choice is unreasonable in a terrible economy.

[Quote from JB3: Perhaps even offer something of value in return for this knowledge. waiting for the "this knowledge." Hell, I think we all would love to learn the secret to Amy's system, you must be joking. You see account statements anywhere? but we also have to understand...

what was the value of this again??? Ooo, ooo, I wanna be invited to a select group of traders who will be bobbing for french fries in boiling oil? Whn you have 10 economists, you usually have at least 11 opinions. 12 months later, they all have to back-adjust their prognostications...

Even an unincorporated person can put away into an IRA. And if married, can double it. And if kids, can do other types of IRA, including Educational.

FIRST: In an S-corporation, the employee-owner is subject to DOUBLE FICA tax. 14-15% rather than nothing when just putting as unemployed and putting your gains as your cap gains. This dboule FICA, in addition to the fed/state/other taxes alone wipes out most of the clever benefit to all the...
