how's the volume on major pairs? whats the max realistic lot size you can daytrade on fx futures?

the chances of a big prime broker like Goldman, Bear Stearns, Merrill, Morgan Stanley, going broke is slim to none.

I'm thinking about trading forex in addition to index futures and energy futures. Any sugestions on the pros/cons of spot forex vs currency futures?

I believe the biggest are pershing, national financial, and Bear Stearns. Most mega funds (500m+) use Bear

my rig cost about 2100$$ not including monitors, I like good reliable hardware. got 8 monitors :). I monitor alot of markets.

2D cards like the NVS are specifically designed with lower clock speeds and voltage, gaming cards pump the highest voltage and clock speed they can get. as for the monitors, I havnt tried using 4 1920x1200 monitors so I cant answer that for you, sorry.

1) Although this is not proven by any professional testing group, I've been using seagate drives for over a decade for my personal computers, and for clients that I built pc's for, and they are very very very reliable. 2) a NVS440 costs around 400 if you search on pricegrabber. Altho you can...

I've built pc's for over 10 years. All I can say is, that system is a complete over kill. Another thing is, don't trade n game on one machine, gaming always likes new drivers, software, which can be unstable and mess up ur trading systems. Here's what I recommend. Core 2 Duo E6600 2.4Ghz...

With a giant axe!

asking this very question makes you a dumb ass, so as you see your're not that intelligent.

Cough... that yacht belongs to Russian billionaire Roman Abromovitch, it's called the Lurssen Pelorus. Paul Allen owns the Lurssen Octopus.

Hey no need to insult him. He's clearly a beginner at this, my advice is to keep doing what you do without adding more money in yet, when you turn a 25% return on your portfolio, match that with funds from your nest, and keep shifting more assets on a result oriented basis. You shouldn't be...

If your systems works for you and consistantly makes profits, than congrats. But personally I prefer to take alot less risk per trade and quantify through higher # of trades. In the end, consistant profits is what matters.

A nice bonus 4 us!

is net profit required to be distributed to shareholders? or can profits stay with the LLC and continue to compound without taxes as long as no distribution is made?

is this some kinda BS? paper or not, turning 100,000 into 3 million in a month is ....... unreal. I've seen super successful futures pit traders turn 100,000 to 1.7million and even they took 3 month!.

Lets assume your risk in that position is 10% for a gain of 20%, 10% would be 1R for a gain of 2R. at 50/50 chance of either, expectancy comes out to 0.5R (2R/2 - 1R/2 = 1/2R). Like I mentioned in the earlier post, I would not risk more than 1.25% of my total portfolio value of this trade, 50%...

I'd take the trade if it was a day trade, if it was month long hold I'd say no thanks. +20 or -10 at 50/50 chance is something I'm willing to bet at, but only with 12.5% of my account for that position, at 10% loss, it translates to 1.25% of my whole account. so 50% chance of going down 1.25%...

Ahem.... I've traded for over a decade and consistantly make high 6 figure a year..... I think you need to brush up on ur glossary for *risk management*
