    I made $7 million USD in 2008

    First of all, I do not understand why you would tell this in a public form... But here is what I found out: The moment that you have 'figured' it out, so to speak, in regards of making money, that's the moment you will acknowledge that it was not making the money that was the journey, but the...

    How I saved $10,000, sorry Gurus

    Okay, I understand what you mean. But let's go a little further then what most people think what you need for being a 'good' trader. Most people think in "tell me what to do, show me how it is done, and I know I will do it in the same way and have succes" but reality is that 'learning' to be a...

    How I saved $10,000, sorry Gurus

    No, it does not make sense that they are actually being good in making money. It make more sense if they(the teachers) can 'teach' somebody else to make money in the markets... References means everything, but you must ask the right questions... And a question like 'how much money do you make...

    How I saved $10,000, sorry Gurus

    What I mean as a professional in there field is that they are 'good' in what they do, for example teaching and modeling future traders into succesfull traders... It does not mean that they have to be a trader to do just that....

    How I saved $10,000, sorry Gurus

    Hmmm, I do not agree that a 'mentor' has to have a track record or even must 'trade'. The best coaches are people that are professionals in there field. You need somebody with 'insight' and outside perspective to make you a 'great' trader and developing others in to great traders are other...

    Passive or Supplemental Income

    This statement is ridicoules... I don't know Melaluca but I do know Amway because I have an Amway business since 1997. There are many parallels between a trading business and having an mlm business, especially the psychology that you need to excel in both businesses is very much the same...

    Free charting software..

    Euhmm... Yahoo quotes or msn quotes are not realy that good. It depends what you use, if you for example have an need for a closing price that is correct, then I urge you to compare with a good qoute provider and they do not come free or cheap. Do some research in the quality of the data that...

    Trading seminar Garuanteed profit

    The whole purpose of a seminar is teaching somebody your knowledge or methodolgy. If your only reason to give seminars is money, then don't do it. Giving an garantee that the teacher will make money is worthless. From my own experience giving seminars , the best salespitch is a garantee that the...

    I need a Successfull Seasoned Trading Mentor and will work for free to learn

    I think it depends on your trading methodology. If he or she was in my country I would take the offer. It is not so bad to have someone do all the preparation on your trading instruments.(Selections, printing charts, updating tradelogs, capturing news items on stocks or futures and so on.) It...

    What;s a good monthly % return for day traders?

    Maybe you're asking the wrong question? No 'pro' would look at his/her performance in the terms of 'how much % of capital did I make this month'. It is maybe an end result for the massa to compare, but does this mean that a person with more money and a lesser return in % have done a lesser...
