Does this crap remind anyone of the Saturday Night Live skit where the guy pulls out a mirror and says to himself, "I'm good enough, I'm smart enough, and gosh darn it, people like me." :D Like I said before, put the mirror down and go get a job. You just wasting your time doing all...

So Frost, which one is you in the competition? :eek:

Like I said before, there is too much money at stake, and you are all just playing with play money. Crank up the risk and play to win. I expect even higher % returns if they are any good.

Looks like I will not be upgrading to Vista, instead I will probably put that money into the new Intel chip coming out later this year.

May install it on the play computer to check it out. But I'll be waiting for the pioneers to battle test it first.

The funniest post on this thread is definitely Mr. Papertrade. LOL. Until your ass is on the line and you are trading for a living (as your only income), you don't know what it is like to trade. Every trader in here is chuckling at that one, I'm for sure. It's not until you are using...

Hi Lar, That is great you want to do this. It is very easy to do. And in this day and age, your world will be expanded just to go on the internet and see how fast information is being passed. It is a new world. You can go ahead and PM (that means Private Message me, if you don't know...

It's too bad the competition is only open to students. Or else, the % would be much higher. I say a minimum of 500+ % returns for that kind of reward being offered. That is very easy with high leverage with forex. And this being a funny money account, who cares? You have no chance if you...

Somehow this sounds like a beer.

since you have been servicing and providing IT consulting to small businesses in the past 4 years, that would definitely be the road to take. you won't be lying or telling the whole truth. tell them that you lost some clients and need to get back to working for an employer for the $$$...

this had me chuckling.

Whenever I hear someone tell me that they have figured out the markets, that's when I completely tune them out. Almost all profitable traders never even understand the market, they have figured out some little trick that they can use repeatedly to get some $$$ off the market. Let me make a...

I wouldn't read too many trading books either. Most of them are full of hot air and fluff. If you really want to be good at something you can control, start learning how to program.

Every good trader knows this because we are in the game of numbers. Simply put, You gotta know when to cut your losses. It doesn't mean to give up completely, but don't hold on to that loser just because you want to be proven right. You gotta go get a job! What is the big deal? You...

Well, first of all, look for a track record. Get 1 year performance on a LIVE account. I don't know how many clowns show a demo account statement or some backtest statement. Get drawdown and risk information like the number of lots traded vs. account size. Ask them about money management as...

I never asked who the oil belongs to. Try reading comprehension. So like I said before, I hope Chavez turns out to be the revolutionary figure you guys make him out to be. But if it wasn't in Venezuela, you agree to a bad deal, you eat it. And if it was corruption, then prove it and take...

To make 5% every month. To eliminate as many failure modes to my trading platform and strategy as possible. To not fuss over every little trade every second of the day. Relax.

Let's say a local man owns a piece of empty land, it is a valuable site because it has great scenary, but he is not making any money on it. A business person comes to him, and gives him a proposition, the business man wants to build a 1st class resort on the local man's property and give him a...

Who sold the oil to the oil companies?
