    You can't handle the truth!!!

    look, Bin Laden is still loose, and now Sadam is on the run with $2Billion and probably a bit of small pox, anthrax, shoulder launched anti-aircraft missiles, etc. Now is not the time to spill the beans for short term politicial gain.

    swing trading vs day trading

    In my personal experience, it is very difficult to mix time frames, I've never been able to do it successfully. Trader Vic warns against it.

    You can't handle the truth!!!

    remember that Tony Blair is LABOR PARTY, he is not in the "right wing conspiracy". He had absolutely no selfish reason to go along with it, he just thought it was necessary. why would he think that ? Maybe he KNOWS something, just like the CIA and Bush knew something. In fact, there was A LOT...

    You can't handle the truth!!!

    I would also like to remind you that we hit Afghanistan first for obvious reasons, and we only hit Iraq after a lot more intelligence gathering was done. You can't say Bush is a liar and still be intellectually honest yourself. You don't know the truth, you don't have the info you need to...

    You can't handle the truth!!!

    The Real World between countries is dirty with no rules. This is hard for many people to accept , because we don't live our lives that way, but that doesn't mean it isn't true. I would remind you that Clinton carpet bombed Serbia with B52's and unguided bombs simply to prove a point. Bush...

    You can't handle the truth!!!

    The people that are upset now are the same ones that were upset before the war, which are the same ones that simply hate Bush. Did Bush lie about WMD ? I honestly don't know because I'm not in the CIA and neither are any of you. Try to imagine what it would have been like with Gore as...

    Why do traders blame their firms for not succeeding?

    I know that discussing this isn't going to change anything, because if the people running the firms gave a shit, they would have setup their businesses differently to begin with. this thread is strictly for the more naive among us. All the valid points have been laid out, if a person reads...

    Why do traders blame their firms for not succeeding?

    you are correct, there are a lot of scams out there, but that doesn't mean that they are no longer to be viewed as bad, or that the perpetrators are innocent. If somebody scams you , do you say "oh good show mate ! you sure got me !"...I seriously doubt it.

    Why do traders blame their firms for not succeeding?

    here's some scenarios -your 21 year old brother goes to Ameritrade and churns his 5k account down to nothing. -your 21 year old brother goes to a prop firm, where the owner says he will teach him how to trade with a very high success rate. The kid churns himself to zero following the...

    Why do traders blame their firms for not succeeding?

    you intentionally took me out of context. This idea that the prop firms bear no responsibility for what goes on in their shops is 100% horse manure, and if you talk to the regulators they will tell you the same thing. If a trader does well they take LOTS of responsibility don't they ! "Oh...

    Why do traders blame their firms for not succeeding?

    I would never blame a regular discount retail firm for losing money, But that isn't what we are talking about here, these are essentially "full service" firms, since they sell advice and trading methods and solicit people to follow their advice. if I 100% followed the advice of a full...

    Why do traders blame their firms for not succeeding?

    lets say there was a local business that was legal, profitable, but 50% of its customers had a strong negative experience when dealing with them and felt they were unethical in their sales practices. Is that a good company ? Would you tell somebody to use that company ? Would you...

    Institutional Trading Jobs

    I read liars poker, and it was a great book, but I would think long and hard about that really being the way you want to live. 99% of humans are not cut out for that kind of environment, and that is probably a good thing.

    Why do traders blame their firms for not succeeding?

    you don't like the fact that you fell for a naive con game ? Walk away and leave them with your hard earned money without even saying anything ! yeah, thats the ticket ! really if you fall for this you should see a lawyer and see if you can at least get some of your money back.

    CNBC on Daytraders 6/17/03

    Bloomberg could be usefull if you need background noise, I prefer music or talk radio. CNBC is very bad for you , I stopped watching it about 2 years ago and haven't missed a thing. as for news, you can get anything you want from the internet, you don't even need a TV or a newspaper...

    After finding which penny stock you want, find out who makes a market in it, and then see if they have a retail brokerage operation. Then call that firm and tell them what you are interested in. If your trades are large enough they can get you in and out without commission ( they make the...
