From $100,000 to $111,000 in one day!!! Basically no losers!!! Wow, I can't wait till I get a real account and make billions!! This is why SIM is almost utterly worthless. Use SIM to get used to hitting the buttons, that is about it. Just something to think about. If you lose...

The "E" in ET is Entertainment. First, if the trading group isn't profitable, then maybe only give bonuses to the top 1-2 guys. that's how it works on some real trading desks. it's all group. say the group makes 200k....then it's all about who might leave, who you like, who really...

This is the new America. IF you don't have money, get mad at those that do. It's easier to try to bring them down, then bring yourself up. Infringe their freedom for medical expenses, well, until you get sick and need a transplant or something. Then you will like others more...

gotcha, thanks

but wasn't MF and PFG pretty legit before they went under? Wasn't JPM pretty profitable after reporting some irregularities? I think even Enron was raking in the cash for awhile..... Just do the proper research and then go with your gut. best you can do. and if they all turn into...

I will let you trade with MY funds. First, you MUST be educated "properly". This can be done in 5 small easy payments of 2,000 each. That is nothing. Then, once you passed the SIM master challenge for 2 months, and provided you paid for all small expenses, you can trade a 5k account...

I have to imagine no firm is safe. pretty scary stuff. I wouldn't be surprised if any firm closes. Luckily, I have my money with a Nigerian representative who only needed 100,000 before he gives me lottery proceeds of over 15 million. Is this a great world or what?

I think this is great. Once massively burdened with debt, you will likely become a pacifist. Same with having kids, getting married, buying house, etc... The last thing a gov't needs is civilians who are ready to revolt, and I would guess the critical mass of student loans isn't enough...

http://www.cnn.com/2012/07/08/us/georgia-wire-fraud/index.html?hpt=hp_t2 Price disappeared about two weeks ago after telling his friends he had lost "a large sum of money through his trading activities" -------------------- I think Price used one of the online guru's strategies....haha...

I thought I heard that an LLC is pretty much the same as a sole proprietor, practically speaking. If you are broke from trading and declare bankruptcy for whatever reason, I'm pretty sure it will follow you personally. So maybe you are leaving out some specifics, which is fine. If you...

So it's a pay cut, but I'm guessing the gov't sponsored insurance would save him money. Probably save him more than if he took the raise and forked over the money via health insurance through work. I say fire him immediately. And fire everyone who ever talked to him!!! Be right back...

Do you use the expression "5-8 fresh newbies from college" as if they are not that bright and will take a very low salary because they are hungry to learn how to trade? This makes me seem like you are not willing to pay the right amount, and why not hire a monkey and sell the normal crap about...

Three more rules: 1. NEVER follow rules until you are sure that this is a rule that must be a rule to never be broken. 2. The inefficiencies in the market are not that large, so trade large size relative to your account and never more than 2 RT's a day. 3. Nobody has ever proven...

I agree that a TOP SCHOOL is very, very important. I have an MBA, not from a top school, and it cost me about 30k after interest. honestly, maybe less than that. I know, I really should know. Maybe it was 20k total. anyhow, my point is that it was a waste but a good investment. It was a 13...

This is another plan to pacify the masses!!! lol If you own your house, you have freedom. If you rent, you are a slave forever. Worried that you are not sheep enough for your boss and you might get fired. The "American Dream" was made up to get you into massive debt, and it worked...

The trend has been higher!!! buy low and sell high!!! go to a one-minute chart, when you get a higher high and higher low then buy and make bank!! i also can pick tops....but i call that trend trading as well i just get in at the very beginning. so longs....tighten stops and protect...

I just like how the salespeople try to justify the 10,000 dollars. "ignorance is more expensive" "90% of traders lose, you can't afford to try this without education." "they don't teach this at Harvard, and we teach things never found in books." "you get hands-on education by a true...

Don't sign!!! Of course they are controlling you like mindless sheep!!! Wake up and do your own thing. It will be hard in the short-run, but then the NDA won't control you. Your gut knows this is simply a way to own everything you do.....have you sign your life way!!! run!!! it's...

LOL. I have a graduate degree and series 7, therefore I am in the top 0.0000001% of all people on elitetrader. To the OP, go to school and expand your mind. That is the key to the universe. Forget trying to trade, your mind right now is weak. School will give you the tools to become a legend.

my favorite are the people who immediately post : "RIP. My thoughts and prayers to you and your family. May he rest in peace." As if they are some saint and want to see other comments praising them for such kindness. These are the same people who scream at the guy at counter for not...
