Version, I am from USA. What is your tax liabilty and what country are you from? As this is paper thus far I haven't actually done the tax thing yet. Would be interested in what to expect from IRS. Thanks JIM

Sorry if I got a little preachy there. No offense meant and hopefully none taken. That said I wore out my stupid hat today. Could have played things worse. I churned myself with bad entries and sticking around in trades way to long and giving back profits. #1) + .1 #2) - 1.5 #3)...

I guess even traders need a little of the Jerry Springer thing otherwise I don't think people would heap it on like they do in here. I suspect everybody who posted drivel is just bored and almost definitely could take the other end of that offer anyway. I know I wouldn't come up with the sum. If...

Why would you trade without stops even in paper. Are you planning on just having fun with the paper account, or are you working towards putting up your real money with your systems. I do intend to move to my real account in the future, so I want what I'm doing to carry directly over to my...

Think I'm done for the day. Could be a long setting up but it feels to late. Anyway have stuff to do and a couple of good trades already. #1) +4.0 #2) -1.1 #3) 0 #4) +2.9 -------------------- (+5.8 x100=580) - (4RT x $5.5= $22.00)= $558.00 Exited well on #1. Not so well...

Exactomundo! They don't want to kill the golden goose, but they do want to bleed it just right. JIM

I think it was more like not changing your driving habits and therefore causing you to buy less gas. Kind of the old turn up the heat on the frog till it cooks idea. Could be hogwash. But I know first hand about some cooked frogs. I don't think the gas companies think much more of us. JIM:(

I will be happy to be profitable. I hope to make more after expenses than I would at home depot, walmart, tractor supply, ect. That's about what my prospects amount to in a small town after following my wifes job. That 8 years of college came in handy :D. So in my position becoming profitable at...

I read that they make thier money when the price drops, as they lag behind the price going down. They do that because we are so grateful for any easing. On the way up they don't want to scare, anger, and frustrate the consumer so they take less margin at the pumps. Seemed to make sense with how...

Thanks Bought one today. JIM:)

Thanks, Would having a wireless function put my info in danger or should I keep to the wired routers. JIM

Hello I know this has probably already been covered again and again but I can't find a clean thread discussing routers. I have cable internet. Need to run streaming data and possibly have fire wall. Any suggestions welcome. Thanks JIM

I urge you to look at the history of what you are saying. When people like you say the end is near, our course is chosen and there is nothing left but to dwindle down into the abyss. Things are about to change for the better. Once you have all dumped your money into the next pocket of fear it...

Duck! Duck! Duck! You are going to get slammed. No one on hear gives much advice that will get you profitable. Especially when you ask that way. I've been around hear trying to glean some info for a while. Have gotten some good solid tips on trade management and stops. No trading plans here...

Why lay off the trades I would usually take? I felt the "pressure" of reporting results here, purely self-imposed. What would anyone care if I took ten turns and made/lost money in the end? Performance pressure is a very real part of trading, and it is always self-imposed. Very seldom do I...

Every week there are millions of people blindly dumping money into mutual funds. The stock market has become the place you have to put allor most of your retirement funds. That's where everyone looking to retire soon are trying to make enough money back from the 2000 drop. Market bias up until...

Anybody know how much of a problem batteries are and How expensive? Saw an electric/ hybrid car manufacturer talk about the ability to outfit the nation with batteries for all those cool devices. He said it can't be done in this century even if everyone can, could, or wants to go electric/hybrid...

Good point, When I've been around long enough to learn how to trade one market efficiently I will let myself look into others. Whenever I look at other charts during the day I don't seem to have the same feel for how it acts. I don't know whether it is smart or not to focus on one market to...
