I do not know why people would assume that we are safe from another attack. How could they? We hear on the news of arrest, and the thwarting of planned terrorist attacks over sea's, as well as arrest in this country. It is much safer for those in the military during these times. “Be...

I understood that ES futures are $50 per contract, and the NQ futures are $20 per contract. Can you restate, or elaborate, to make it clear to me, please. I had figured that six ES futures contracts would be figured as below: (6 times $50 per contract = $300), for each 1 point move...

It is a human need to understand how things work. Religion provides answers that science cannot. Jeffrey

Thanks Tuna, but didn't spark an interest. I do not need basic knowledge, and would like to see an advanced section. Jeffrey

I am looking into trading the futures market(NQU1 E-Mini Nas) exclusively from currently trading NASDAQ commom stocks. I came across, and skimmed over, this site today .http://dacharts.com/index.htm . It focuses on the NQ's. The founder and his friends post their trades, and share...

Yes, I can only imagine a site with a professional coach as operators for three, or four, small rooms. The team players qualify by providing past year(s) Capital Gains reported to the I.R.S. meeting a minimal R.O.I., and taking a psychological aptitude test. After review of a trader’s...

The statement mentioned earlier, "Teacher's teach, Traders trade" is a general truth. It's like the real world. Look at Colleges, and Universities. Why do professors teach? They have enough knowledge to be millionaires. The answer is that they either could not make it work when they...

I will not give my Mother in Law any advice about the stock market, because she can then sue me for losses. I will, however, give her advice after I acquire a series 7 license. The Series 7 license allows the holder to give advice to others, and/or, hype stocks. Anyway, I am good at...

IRAF: Are you really feeling desperate? If so, don't trade, re-group with papertrading. This last few days have been very choppy. You should have a years living expenses(At least six month's) in your trading plan yeilding you patience at the appropriate times. From several years of...

The author of the previous JNPR strategy does not want it posted. Sorry

No problem with legality. Let your broker know what you want to do, and have them send paperwork. The person you want to trade for will fill this paperwork out authorizing you to trade their account. You will have access to their account number on your direct access platform. If you...

andrasnm: Your posting have been great in that they stimulated lurkers to respond. I understand that your comments apply to better than 90% of wanna-bee traders(I replace rich with successful). If you believe it applies to 100%, that's ok. But, you had to expect some heat on this...

Hitman: I think you are a success just going for it, while you have a chance. "Failure is when you fail to try" I wanted to address the others who have families, etc. Jeffrey

Hitman: You can confirm with my findings, through training with someone else, that in addition, many potential traders come from a successful business background, and are looking for something to do. They also, do not have a lot to lose. I would strongly think about the odds of trading...

I have posted on this thread to share my experiences, and knowledge, which partly has come from experienced traders on this thread. It's not just because I am a real nice generous guy. It helps me more than it helps others. I find that you are forcing me to be very blunt with you. You...

Earlier, I tried to deliver a message through analogies, but failed. I was facetious giving an answer that was wanted. I agree vpiNeo, a thread called "Off Topic" should be started.lol P.S. I think I have a "special gift", and that is the attitude to do what ever it takes to get what I...

TraderX: I use analogies to help grasp a concept. I understood your point about getting rich quick, and anwswered from a psychological point of view to keep emotions at bay.(Money is not the top priority driving force.) So to answer again. Yes, all one needs to do is to play the...

1. We all know the rules of Pro basketball. ANY basketball player can not reproduce the skills, and experience, of a Pro, and one team player can't reproduce the same results as another team player. The Lakers all play by the same rules, yet why do some sit on the bench?(Still successful)...

A system that produced nine losers for every winner is very common, right? Let's assume that we're dealing with typical traders thought process. Well then, being a successful is very easy. You know you have consistency (not random-50/50), so simply sell when you would normally buy on emotional...
