    Ultimate Trading Contest: Mark Brown vs Jack Hershey/spydertrader

    I would jump, absoulutely, if someone made this offer to me. I'd do it even if I could only keep a portion of the profits. I can't come up with a single excuse not to.

    WTF is going on here with people logging into the site with the wrong handle on it? It hasn't happened to me, but this isn't the first I've heard of it. I've noticed the site acting funky lately, even the URL i used to bookmark the forums is changed. Last night I kept getting that database...

    Ultimate Trading Contest: Mark Brown vs Jack Hershey/spydertrader

    Wow. A funded account to trade with. I can not come up with an excuse why someone would not do it, so I can't wait to see what the excuse is. It will probably be something as simple as, "I don't want to". "I don't have to prove anything to anybody" is the old reliable standby too.

    How to close

    No shit, I just spent some time in google looking for broker jobs. I was wondering, are there anymore of these penny stock boiler rooms around anymore? I bet there aren't.

    How to close

    Holy fuck, watching all these clips are bringing back memories. After I washed out of the brokerage biz, I tried telemarketing selling little trinkets business to business. I hardly made a dime at it, but honest to god, there were people making 6 figures at it. There were a few sales...

    How to close

    Once when I googled IBD meetups in San Diego I saw that my ex branch manager is going to those things. I guess that's how he's closing now.

    How to close

    Holy shit, I just watched that clip. That is exactly spot on how boiler rooms run. I have been in that exact same meeting a few times. That part where he told the guy to think about a career somewhere else? I was told that myself.

    How to close

    Bud Fox was a telelmarketer for Jackson, Steinham, and Jackson, Steinham was a boler room. BTW, I worked in a true boiler room back in the early 90's, two of them actually. First Struart James, and then later Thomas James. I never opened a single account either time, I was the worst broker...

    Tuco trading in San Diego, CA

    OK, that's good to know. I'm not thinking about joining a prop, but it's just something that's been in the back of my mind from time to time. Bright used to have an office out here a long time ago. If I ever think about it more seriously maybe I'll shoot you guys a PM.

    Tuco trading in San Diego, CA

    A few times they have placed ads on Craig's List that were "help wanted" type ads and they ended up being taken down by Craig's List. If they are placing help wanted type ads that are being yanked I guess it's because they must be demanding deposits up front? Sounds pretty shady for day trading...

    "Why Technical Analysis is Nonsense"; Views?

    Yes, he's very misinformed as evidenced by those traders you mentioned. Let him stay misinformed. The more people using fundamentals and PE's, the better.

    2008 Portfolio-Stoney Style*

    stoney, what do you mean by lining up Needham buys? Do you work at Needham and Company? I've had my eye on CRDC since December 10, I'm nearly ready to pull the trigger now. The whole med instruments area looks nice right now, they are all resisting the sellof in the broader market, i.e. BMTI...

    STOP blaming your losses on Manipulation

    In the eyes of crashistas and permabears, the market is always manipulated. It's easier than admitting you're wrong all the time.

    majority traders really lose money??

    The people who make the blanket statement that "XX% of traders fail" are full of shit. There's no way to know how many traders fail. I blew out my account after my first 8 months and had to stop. So does that mean I failed? No, I was back at it a few months later. So does that mean I'm in that...

    Solar stocks

    Comparing solar stocks to ethanol and fuel cell stocks shows that solar is doing much better as a group. If I have to listen to ex-politicians and celebrities scream about global warming all the friggin' time, I'm going to make money from it. Solar stocks look like the best way to get revenge.

    Solar stocks

    Most databases don't have a solar sector for stocks, they seem to have most of them classified under electronics and semiconductors. I'm creating my own solar sector, so far I've found ten stocks I think should be in it: SPWR FSLR ESLR JASO YGE CSUN SOLF CSIQ AKNS DSTI Looking for...

    Ron Paul, where'd you go?

    I'd like to hear, or make that see since RP supporters seem to exist on the internet, an explanation why people who know that the elections are rigged donated record amounts of money to a campaign in said election?
