that was not my intent. I am looking for clarity, which to this day has ever been something ET could offer. I don't know why I would have thought it would have changed.............

FYI: I started with 4,200 in 1998. When I ended trading I had close to $16 million in profit. $16 MILLION. I never once reloaded, never ever reloaded. Let me say that again. I NEVER ONCE RELOADED! I had a million 2 years into trading. I excelled through 2003 -2011 when I quit. I made more...

good wisdom volente!

thanks friend! Szeven, are opening and closing imbalances still a game?

I traded from Jan 1998 to Sept 2011. I quit, retired, whatever you want to call it at that point. I made a go at changing careers over the last year and for a multitude of reasons can no longer continue in that. So now I am sitting here with some money, time, and energy and wondering what is...

anyone else chime in on this: I am looking for opinions. I am leaning towards starting again next month.

I have been doing ministry and managing my properties and chilling with the wife and kids every day. I have enough income monthly to live comfortably for the rest of our lives and own everything debt free. I'm 35 now and wondering if I have a few more years left in me.

Also, Szeven, MNX, Lescor, Dustin, you guys know my style is big blocks, high % of the total volume of one stock, trading for pennies or even fractions there of. Since I have not been "in" the market and only really hearing things here and there I have no idea where the tempo is right now.

I retired because I had hit many financial goals of mine and my kids were becoming more active growing out of the toddler phases. I wanted to spend more time with them. I had invested in real estate paying cash for properties over the years and had just been managing those. Recently, after...

None of the old school traders around anymore? Dustin, Szeven, Redink, EricP, Lescor anyone?????

Hey fellas After "retiring" in Sep 2011 I am thinking of once again coming back into the market at the ripe old age of 35. My question is to all the veterans on the board. Is the market still playable for a big position trader who is nimble and likes to control stocks? I have not even...

EOQ selling is what we saw. On Monday I am going out on a limb and saying we open +150 with fundies putting new money to work. I am long 300 116 spy calls that expire next Friday with that being said. I will play my chances for the pop.

Thank you BAC....

I would continue to post if I would not get bombarded with hate mail afterwards. Then there is the troll who asks for money, or asks for your "secret" because he can't get a break. I always enjoyed this thread and it pushed me to be a more focused trader. It is a shame it went downhill......

so how far in the money is this trade going to be now......

The list has of course the names symbols sectors of those companies being added and deleted. What is more important than that is on these lists they include the number of calculated shares that need to be bought or sold/ % of weighting in the index/ amount of $ of deletion or addition that will...

Does anyone have one of those handy russell rebalance xcel sheets that the pros toss around from desk to desk? For the last 10 years I have been able to get one but this year it seems they are tight lipped about this one for whatever reason. If you have one please let me know if you are...

Is it coming? Perhaps this is another buying opportunity into a massive inflationary environment coming. Perhaps its the small smoke signal of a bigger fire to come. What do you think?

It worked just like I had planned. This is the reason I stopped posting on the boards here. It was a constructive trade with no ill harmed intended and I still get all the nastiness from others. This is the same reason I stopped posting on the PnL boards. There are always those that feel...

I played the June calls to assume a little less risk but still be exposed to the set up I thought would happen. I exited the position on 2 trades as well as entered the position on 2 trades. Total profit was about 32%. One reason I exited the trade because the bounce happened just like I had...
