    poker player tries his hand at futures trading

    Tradestation should be embarrassed that this product, which has been in development for over ten years and is on the umpteenth revision or release, is so innefficient and lacks so much. Heck, you've only been using it a few days and you can already see its shortcomings. Don't waste any time...

    Starting an LLC - nonresident and income tax

    There is no semantics game. I thought the subject here is tax on income, not filing fees or other costs of doing business. There are tons of taxes on everything a person or an entity does - sales taxes, utility taxes, telephone taxes, fuel taxes etc etc etc.

    Starting an LLC - nonresident and income tax

    It is correct that an LLC itself pays no income taxes. It is a pass through entity much like a partnership in that respect.

    Worldco Llc - Walter Bruan Scott Comes Out Of Hiding..

    For sure there was more money in nasd stocks in those years you mentioned, because the ranges were incredible. Stocks had 20-30 point ranges as you said, but the fact that traders had the ability to put limits in at 1/64 increments didn't mean much because of the huge ranges, high volatility...

    Worldco Llc - Walter Bruan Scott Comes Out Of Hiding..

    reardon, I respectfully disagree with your statement that penny spreads have nothing to do with the more difficult trading environment now. You sound like an intelligent and experienced trader (as I consider myself), but my perspective, based on my own evidence and experience, is that there is...

    Worldco Llc - Walter Bruan Scott Comes Out Of Hiding..

    What really killed trading was decimilation, the proliferation of boxes, and NX, which made the art of tape-reading much harder. If the up-tick rule goes away completely that is another lost edge (for those who use conversions). None of those things will be reversed, so I don't think we will...

    ET could have saved this guy $15

    http://answers.google.com/answers/threadview?id=593024 Yep, he paid $15 to Google to get the answer to the type of question that gets asked and answered here many times a day. I'd say Google is undervalued if they can make money like that!

    Backtesting vs Simulation vs Actual Trading

    Those real profits look pretty good (they are real?) No reason to be unhappy with that. EDIT: I did not see the real money post before my above post... now I can see that you added it in there and are doing 25% of the sim in real money. I still think it's not bad and can probably be improved.

    Truly automated trading

    Yes I sometimes let others know about a good thing if I see it, but more importantly I let them know If I see something that I think is bad. That is exactly why I made the comment. In my opinion, when a company relies on disguised spam to advertise it's products, that is potentially a bad...
