My point (I'm not trolling the TBone) is that it's a cultural addiction, It's not a 'job' or 'business'. It's a wider issue than dopamine and substance addiction. As long as we call it a 'job' and a 'business' it makes it a rational and constructive pursuit, which we all know it's not. It is a...

http://youtu.be/BWIpTdg7tj8 Futures, stocks, FX: it's all the same just like scotch, beer and vodka.

Admitting you have a problem in public is a brave thing to do. You are not alone and the vast majority cannot admit their predicament. The culture we live in demonizes 'failure'. I think the truth is that Financial Gambling, euphemistically called 'Trading', feeds beautifully into this paradigm...

What's the point of this? Could you go and hawk your wares somewhere else please. Thanks.

"If these markets attract people who want to take risks, I am hard-pressed to see how that can be an indictment of our industry," said John Damgard, president of the Futures Industry Assn. "Faulting the derivative-products industry (for fostering compulsive gambling) would be like blaming the...

FX offers many opportunities if you have the right tools (that means a good STP, DMA, NDD broker) know how your chosen pairs are likely...

As I sit typing this, my dog, who has been a constant companion for the last 10 yrs + is lying on her beanbag in front of the heater and snoring heavily. She's doing this because her heart is weakening and fluid is building in her lungs gradually. She also has problems with her back legs now and...

Perhaps the man gets the woman he deserves. Assholes marry assholes etc. Although I do wonder that US has tied itself up in feminism and the ladies have you by the balls.
