P/L That's the bottom line.

Is it that hard to rent another space and plug a computer in?

I would stick with your job if you have only part time trading and rollercoaster results. Develop a good strategy in your free time, and only when you are happy with the results, then go for it. But not a second before. And being profitable in the market has very little to do with...

Isn't that what accoutants are for? Why would anyone making money try to do their own taxes...especially if their accountants or tax lawyers know all the loopholes and tax breaks?

I guess they weren't that good of friends. Which is perfectly understandable, it's your living we are talking about here. But if the friend is like a brother to me, it'll be hard for me to watch him fail without showing them a few tricks to stay float.

That's a fast setup, probably one of the better ones. The only concern is if Vista is compatible with all of your software. Besides that, it looks good. If that was my setup, I would have a total of 4Gb high quality ram (matched pairs 2x2). Also, I would use a Raid1 hard drive setup...

Good luck with your search. For the amount of time you are requesting, it figures to be less than $8/hr. Lurk for 1 week (40 hrs) Support for 2 weeks (80 hrs) And it keeps going down as you figure you probably demand more than 3 weeks of mentorship. You wouldn't even take that offer...

Well, my house is paid off. Small place. Just sitting on cash now, waiting for the foreclosures to hit the tape. Then we'll start seeing the fire sales when the banks are forced to unload. The US governement is trying its hardest to slash rates and give out rebates to stop the...

Just go to China or HK, it's only a flight away.

Ummm...if it ain't broke, why fix it? You obviously have a gift in scalping. The hours suck, but you should just double your lot size, and work half the time. That sounds more logical to me. Hehe, perhaps, you should teach me this scalping technique. If I can scalp with profits, I would.

He was a junior trader. Supposedly, he knew the backbone of the system that checks on the trader's positions, so he override all the checks through the backdoor.

When it's your only income, you better be on top of your game, or the demons start coming out to play with your mind. Also, have you traded alone for a long period of time (like in your 2 week vacation?), some people are not prepared for the long grind in front of the monitor by themselves either.

I've been very slow. But I would like to review the ES and YM from last year, so I can coordinate with the previous thread and already posted comments. I have a folder filled with last year's notes. I'm currently using IB with Amibroker, which can do playback. Does anyone have some sort...

Previously employer HR should only let them know that you work there from date to date. Maybe a salary range. But that is all they are legally allowed to say. So don't put references in with your previous employer, they can talk to your references. But if they call the employer directly...

Ride that Bronco!

What?? WHHAT? Iran has a navy? :D

I would say Puerto Rico.

RIP Big Cheese. Still the funniest thread on ET.

Hookers and blow. :D

Sounds like a place where a hacker would be interested in, high class law firm, lots of goodies there. And he doesn't even have to be in the building, it could be the next building over.
