Sorry, I used 100k as my base (what I would trade with) not 10 and then used 10 (a number I see used a lot) as my example, thanks for fixing that! Bearbelly - thank you!! Kiwi_Trader - I think you're totally misreading me. You're reading exhaustion as cynicism. I've come to these forums...

The more I think about this (speaking of the emini's which I don't know well), the more I realize that if all the courses and books are "scams" - and no one who is successful will reveal how they "do it." Is every single successful trader who boasts over 20% per month profit here completely...

It's a good thing to mention and it's something I'm coming to realize. It's a strange industry - there is so much noise. It's hard to decipher what is real information and what is a salespitch. Everyone tends to agree on the principles, but the implementations are secrets and those that...

Thank you, that was really helpful. Am I right to assume that pretty much any system for sale online is going to be either a scam or just a mediocre notion? I guess I'm also looking for VALID educational materials to take me to the next level. For emini's especially I'm new to the game...

I am wondering if someone can't point me to a group or individual publicly known strategies so that I can see the kinds of structures of these strategies and use them as a foundation for building my own. Obviously there are hundreds of people who want to sell me a strategy that works 80% of...

During the webinar, is there supposed to be any audio other than signal sounds?

Thanks for that. This article is a perfect extension to my question Here is a perfect example of a "gutt feeling" - but could these factors not be programmed into a system? There was a stimulus which triggered this response. and an even more ambigious yet perfect example If you accept...

I just spent until 5:50 am reading this thread and learning a tremendous amount from everyone, thank you. While I'm a newbie trader by any starndard (a student really) - I've done well in business management and from that perspective I was compelled to echo some other people's mentioning that...

dcraig, you're absolutely right, that wasn't really smart of me to defend my first statement with essentially a similar statement. I apologize. I'm also aware that quite often software's biggest fans are ALSO their biggest critics and I should remember that here. For the most part, I'm...

Thanks to everyone for the discussion. I understood both perspectives, thanks for the clarification.

I'm seriously here to find out this stuff - not promoting or bashing anything. I would reference where I read this stuff, but then it might seem like I'm saying I believe it. People trash all knds of stuff and it's hard coming from the outside to know what to believe. But, honestly, even in...

I've been reading a lot of forums about different brokers and it seems like Interactive Brokers and Tradestation and the two most widely used systems. At the same time, I hear in forums about 50% complaints. They aren't working, inconsistent, sloppy implementation. I've even heard that...

New here, so sorry if you've covered this in past posts, but 80% profitable trade rate seems high - are you trading on your own private system or something that you can share?
