    PropTrader - Daily exploits

    Yeah maybe more opportunities to short the pop but the thing is ... the move is ALWAYS better with no pop... no opportunity for longs to get out or shorts to be squeezed... That's been my experience anyway. The bounce at the end is then big but the ride down is fun. Whats happenings the next...

    PropTrader - Daily exploits

    Looks like I encountered the new "alternative up-tick rule" yesterday. As I said in my journal I shorted YRCW on the open after the halt. I tried to add to my position but every time I tried to hit it wouldn't let me and just re-posted my order 1c above. I thought at the time that it must have...

    PropTrader - Daily exploits

    Very good today. Just didn't capitalize as much as I wanted to. I really have to increase my size but I'm still not comfortable to do it in the market at the moment. This is a time to capitalize as we all know volume and movement will die off in summer months. I'm sorry but I don't really...

    Thoughts on YRCW?

    I shorted $3.10 right after the halt, if I did overnights I would have been holding! Current equity holders are now even more stuffed then before. However I can't think of a reason why anyone was long in this stock in the first place...

    Another WTS Prop Thread...

    It doesn't surprise me that not many made $$ there. It's exactly what I alluded to in my earlier post... it's a legit firm but ripes off its trader on the fee side of things... this is what I have heard first hand from traders there (ex & current) Do what you will with this info

    PropTrader - Daily exploits

    Not sure if any of you have checked out SteveGomez's channel on youtube. He is part of a website called today trader. I have no association at all and I don't pay for any of their stuff but he has a free youtube channel and posts videos every week or 2. Although his style of trading is...

    PropTrader - Daily exploits

    Finished the month in the green. Always hate finishing down on the last day and I avoided that today. Traded 3 stocks in the morning... only 1 prior to 10:30 as per my rules at the moment. The stock I traded prior to 10:30 was DPTR. It had done about 1m in volume and the chart looked awesome...

    Why do people pay for trading courses/training?

    Thanks for your input, I'm basically of the same opinion about these paid courses teaching trading. As I stated in my last posts I'm more interested in the "improving me" rather then "improving or learning a system"

    Why do people pay for trading courses/training?

    I actually started a journal here on ET about 2-3 months ago. I think this has helped me be more accountable and understand my current thinking. It notes my trades but I'm always talking about how I'm feeling and what I was thinking during the day. I have found it good to get my frustration...

    Why do people pay for trading courses/training?

    Yeah I really should have phrased the question differently. I have no desire to pay someone to learn an edge or a system. I was curious about the "noggin" stuff and whether experienced profitable traders have used it. In the future I will be way more specific with my question Thanks for...

    seeking prop firm 2k-3k deposit

    This is an example of a gimmick... These opening & closing auctions were great a couple of years ago. I made a decent chunk from them and I know other people who made millions from them. These same people don't even do them any more as the opportunity is gone or greatly reduced that the risk...

    Why do people pay for trading courses/training?

    No I haven't heard of those courses, but I guess these types of courses would be something I would be much more interested in. Have you taken any of these courses? ------------ I have definitely noticed that the rest of your life plays a heavy role in your trading... Its difficult to...

    Why do people pay for trading courses/training?

    Yeah like I said in my post I learned through trial and error and then reading books. I have never really read about actual technical trading theory (ie looking for a method)... but more focused on the psychological aspects of trading. Are you actively trading? and have you ever taken a course?

    Why do people pay for trading courses/training?

    ...and in practice your a douche Firstly) Who said anything about me wanting credibility... I see you still suffer from ego problems after 27 years of trading. Get off your high horse for a couple of minutes Secondly) I wasn't talking about the merits of any particular training. With...

    Why do people pay for trading courses/training?

    Maybe I wasn't clear when I asked the question. I'm not talking about some b.s. where a douche bag tries to sell me a fool proof system that just prints money. I think the argument of someone selling you a golden egg laying goose vs trading it themselves has always been clear for me and I hope...
