    My Plan for $10k

    Hey, UP YOURS uptik. :) Of course it's terrible advice. I said If he doesn't care about 10k, then he should put it all in Goog. I also said If he does care, then he should diversify and nurture it. Don't skew my post next time. Oh by the way, Goog was $364 on 3/2. It opened at $408 today...

    Paper Trading Vs The Real Deal

    I'm not saying paper trading is a complete waste of time. Most traders, at some point, will use it and for some of them there are very good uses for it. Like: learning a new platform, testing unorthodox trading styles, automation. (I know, I'm turning into a broken record) Beginners who are...

    Paper Trading Vs The Real Deal

    HELLO. I THINK I NEED TO CLARIFY MYSELF. Beginners. Learn the basics of trading. Formulate multiple possible trading strategies. Open an account. Learn the platform INTIMATELY. Trade a small portion of your capital. Evaluate whether it's a viable strategy or not. If you undertake this type...

    Robert Dornhelm's The Ten Commandments (2006)

    the parting of the sea was fairly good for a TV movie, but the burning bush, plagues, and branding of the tablets was terrible for today's special effects. You're right though, Ramses was terribly portrayed. Come to think of it, when did the Egyptians ever instate an English pharaoh? or...

    Paper Trading Vs The Real Deal

    one more take: Ever played online poker? (I'm not relating trading to poker, that's a whole other forum) Well, I have played three types of online poker; free simulated money no-limit & limit, very small limit, and high stakes no-limit. I'm sure a lot of people on ET have played all three...

    I guess if I kept just one person from seeing this film, then I have served my purpose. Unless you weren't going to watch it anyway...

    Paper Trading Vs The Real Deal

    I'm a trader and investor. I have multiple accounts, each with its own purpose. I'd say my range is anywhere from 5 minutes to 5 weeks. Sometimes it's 5 seconds (ever traded Goog with too tight of a stop?) Sometimes it's 5 months. Look, what I've been trying to get at is this: It doesn't...

    Paper Trading Vs The Real Deal

    If you are planning to trade live, then trade small with real money. Short story. I trade for a living. It's what I do. This is my job, this is my paycheck. When I enter an order into the market, I know that that trade is the reason why I'm either eating an 18 oz Prime Rib at an upscale...

    Robert Dornhelm's The Ten Commandments (2006)

    whoa!!! Don't everyone reply at once! Was this movie so terrible as to make no one want to so much as even mention it? You won't go to hell for complaining about a bad movie on a message board (well, depending on your what religion you are). Maybe I'm just way off base and this movie...

    Paper Trading Vs The Real Deal

    I'd liken it to reading a military field manual before leaving for war, then arriving in the actual war zone. Mentally preparing for war by reading a field manual, while sitting in your favorite recliner drinker a beer and grilling brawts, is still probably closer to reality than paper...

    Robert Dornhelm's The Ten Commandments (2006)

    Is it just me or was this movie terrible? Don't get me wrong, Dougray Scott as Moses was fairly convincing (no where near as moving as Charlton Heston's performance) but the second half of this movie was terribly written, and even more terribly directed. It seemed to me as though the...

    trading strategy for sale

    Are you kidding? NOTHING is better than Wizetrade! I just love the steak knives that came with it! After I found out how much of a rip-off Wizetrade was, I tried using the knives to slit my wrists, but they were too damn dull to cut skin! AHHHHHH!!!

    Reverse Psychology/Trading

    Oh my GOD. [awe struck, jaw dropping] Do you really think most new traders lose money because they are consistently on the wrong side of the trade, and not because they have too wide or narrow of stops in place, trade too often and generate excessive fees, and have little to no knowledge of...

    Just realized we wasted money fighting cold war

    Are you suggesting that this is likely to happen? Or that it is simply just within the realm of possibilities? It sounds to me as if you've already convinced yourself that this is a likely or probable outcome. How many nations have access to nuclear technologies? Is the UAE one of them? Do...

    My Plan for $10k

    go to a broker. you should ask an investment adviser what he/she thinks. keep in mind what your risk tolerances are, and also that most advisers don't care about you unless you have a six figure account and allow them to buy and sell at will or do it often yourself. Seriously, if you have...

    Just realized we wasted money fighting cold war

    As in the efficiency of these ports before the takeover and after. Was there a danger before? Will that danger be directly increased by the UAE takeover? Not political OPINIONATED retorts unrelated to the subject matter at hand. I was not taking a side, I was simply suggesting that it is in the...

    This is the forum for Economics, right? I will not condemn either side of this argument, I will only ask for you to step back and think about these questions as they relate to business: ____________________________________________________________________________________________ Will the...
