    Sweden

    I'm so tired of all the people on here downplaying this. Yes, we all know that most people will not die from this virus. But lets look at this from another angle, a trading angle as you say. Back during the 2008 crisis, with those Mortgage Backed Securities, wasn't it something like only 7%...

    I m looking for a mentor

    This is just plain wrong. The R:R is no different on a day trade than on a long term swing. If you put $2000 into AMZN and plan to make 25%, so you hold till $2500, no matter how long it takes, and take a loss at $1500, so you risk $500, this is no different than buying 1 ES contract and...

    What are the repercussions of unlimited printing?

    Oh yes, Brent Johnson from Santiago talks every now and then with George. I think George does a good job of bringing on lots of people and getting a nice varied opinion. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCpvyOqtEc86X8w8_Se0t4-w/videos

    What are the repercussions of unlimited printing?

    You must also watch George Gamon? Along with what you said, its also important to point out that the Fed only really has control over the short end of the yield curve. Business sets much of the rest of the interest rates. And although the Fed can control the supply and demand for treasuries...

    $2,000 to $200,000 in 2020 at 2.00% per day.

    It is interesting what you say. I think maybe going to 1 ES is a big jump, but there is no reason why he shouldn't be able to do 2 or 3 micro ES. Looking at the stats he shares, most trades are in the green. With 2 micro ES, the profits would simply be double. There is so much data from his...

    Trading room on Zoom.

    Sorry, but once I read this, I know you're full of shit. But just in case you aren't, why don't you just spell out here what your average daily income is from trading, and what you expect to charge/make from the subscription. If you're pulling in $10,000 per day from trading, there would be no...

    Is the economic damage worth it?

    If nothing was done and this was allowed to play out, I think citizens themselves would have gone into self imposed isolation (best case scenario). The Americans would of course shoot anyone who got within 50 feet of their house, and I bet that in the end, more people would have died from...

    Iceland study suggests half of COVID carriers asymptomatic yet infectious

    You should go visit New York. I hear its lovely in spring time.

    This is the end. We are witnessing collapse of the global economy

    There, I fixed it for you. Seriously though, I'm not saying that too much government isn't a bad thing, but the last thing I want to do is leave a crony capitalist in charge of my well being. Look at it this way, if the markets were just self regulating, all of us retail traders would get...

    IB is not for new future traders

    With regards to point 1, I think the high initial margin is offset by the high maintenance margin. Right now for MES, the initial is 3.6k, and the maintenance is 2.9k. This should mean that you're automatically liquidated if you drop below this 2.9k of funds in your account if you're in an MES...

    ES Journal - 2019/2020

    As much as I do believe this, because once the virus scare goes away, the true extent of the damage to the economy will be apparent, I do think that when its obvious that the US dollar doesn't mean as much anymore, people will start moving to assets. This may mean that the stock market will...

    This is the end. We are witnessing collapse of the global economy

    I agree, just take it like a man and if you die, you die. If you think 30% have it, then you are saying that over 100 million have it. Seems like you don't understand this either. Its been shown that maybe about 10% of the cases need a hospital visit. If 100 million had it, I think there...

    Virus .....read this

    I generally like the message, but disagree with the conclusion. The Chinese would be just as fucked to own US debt as the US will be issuing it all. The two countries are far too intertwined for any to escape as victorious. Going forward, this globalization will maybe start to unwind and in...

    This is the end. We are witnessing collapse of the global economy

    I will say this one more time. Throwing the old people off the bus is fine if this is what you want to do, but realize that with the health care system crippled, you aren't getting any health care either for months. As a young person, you might not be too worried about this virus, but over the...

    Mark Cuban calling Boeing’s Bluff

    Someone correct me if I am wrong, but in a bankruptcy proceeding, wouldn't the assets of Boeing be sold off to the highest bidder? In this care, the core of Boeing can still continue. The new owners would more than likely find a way to make the selling of parts profitable, and perhaps continue...

    6 months TopStep 50K Net Profits

    I gotta say. Its a bit confusing to see this along with such a nice PnL chart. It just doesn't make sense to be so consistent with making money, but then have to go to square one. If you didn't have a daily loss limit, do you think you'd be doing much better? If you were trading your own...

    There are at least 30,000 confirmed cases. Only 389 deaths. Only about a 1% mortality rate

    You know what's a good analogy? Trading with delayed data. Imagine looking at your charts, see a long setup- but you know your data is 15 minutes delayed. When you enter a long at the market, you have no idea where its gonna fill. Any new cases discovered today started 1 to 2 weeks ago. You...

    There are at least 30,000 confirmed cases. Only 389 deaths. Only about a 1% mortality rate

    There is no way to control it if you have people mingling. Don't you get it? By the time you feel like you have some symptoms, you've already passed it to a bunch of people. Then you all go rushing for testing at the same time, and some might even need a hospital visit. When you see a spike...

    There are at least 30,000 confirmed cases. Only 389 deaths. Only about a 1% mortality rate

    Imagine this in your hometown. There was another video where the operating rooms were not set up as an ICU because the actual ICU was overflowing. Now imagine your wife is pregnant and due to deliver in 2 weeks. Do you think she will get the quality of care necessary? Imagine you need to...
