Warren Buffet is a genious, one does not get to be one of the best invesors of all times only by luck. However the fact that he is still holding on it is something that might work for him, you can do what he does yet get very different results.

You got to love it. They always print articles about the guy who makes a killing.

Not sure why but the way that woman talks annoys me. She takes forever before she answers, why so many pauses ? Anyways, people should take their responsabilities, again it is all about greed. Imagine you invest in a found and when you ask them how their make their money so that you...

No need to take ( the op ) Port 1385 seriously. He is one of the biggest troll on elite trader with an average of more than 5 posts per day.

10% - 25% x month sounds good. http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=148841&perpage=6&pagenumber=1 I want to buy your trading system.

May I ask you what trade did you place specifically ? Was it futures ? I can not think of any stock options with such leverage.

Good traders make money in up and down markets. Some people made a lot of money last year and the year before. Are they gamblers too ?

The question of the OP is Do You Think Trading is Gambling? I explained why I feel that trading is not gambling, similarities ? Yes. You seem to agree.

You might have some names, but there are by far many more names in the trading world. I am pretty sure you don't have any name for " online gaming" . I agree that there are some similarities between trading and gambling, but to go as far as say that it is the very same thing...no. In trading the...

and again I strongly diagree, my opinion is that professional trading is not gambling in any way shape or form. Who has been making money in online gaming and casinos for 10+ years ? I am waiting for the names. Do you know who really made money ? The casino ! On the other hand there is a...

To the readers who believe that trading is gambling I write this: There is nothing wrong with losing trades as they are to be expected. Being wrong in the markets is part of trading, but how you can destroy yourself in trading is STAYING WRONG. The major difference between amateur investors...

It is tricky. I met someone who failed at trading for 10 years and in the last 3 he figured it out. Now he manages a small hedge fund with a capital of 1.5 M. However I do know many more people that failed, keep failing and will be a failure at trading no matter what.

Never said my edge is realizing that I am not a gambler. I said that if you have and can use an edge you are not gambling. My edge is that as soon as I place a trade my probability to make money is more than 60%. The probabilities keep changing as the price changes. At times I lose money...

Do you really think you are some sort of ET celebrity and people like me can't wait for your posts and follow you or wish to have your autograph or pick up from your brain ? Don't flatter yourself. This thread proves the kind of impression you made on most Elite Trader readers. Over 1400...

Many "investors" are in it for thrills and deny it is gambling. If you do not have an edge (and 90% of stock investors do not) you are a gambler- not an investor/trader. Most stock investors are compulsive gamblers, but would deny it if you asked them.

Wow ! I always knew that I am not only one aware that Port can't even trade marbles in a kindergarden full of kids. http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=148841 and http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=148685 Port1385 is a certified ELITE TROLL...

I agree with the other poster who says...who cares what other think ? You can tell them that you commute everyday from your bedroom to your living room and trade stocks. Most people don't know anything more than stocks, there is no point in giving details if they can not understand or...

It was a rocky start for most people. You did something truly amazing last year I believe you will do it again.

I have been trading for 3 years and I have been making money in every year 2008 included + 30%. Everything about finance/stocks/trading etc has been already written in books. No book will tell you specifically how to make money consitently on Wall Street. I paid a mentor who pointed out the...

I don't agree WSW showed some pros that made money in different ways. Some people on WSW would take weeks or months to make money, but they made money. This show is about new people who want to be daytraders. Daytrading is the hardest way to make money, but it is also the most exciting...
