JPY was weak this morning, but seems to made a bottom around 9:45 while the market keeps rallying

I'm short this move. It's definitely an interesting day. We've formed a couple of descending triangles in the spy, and when it looks like we're going lower, we just scream higher. The volume is pretty light as well. And I'm watching the 10-year and the yen, because neither are...

It depends on the person, but there is usually a huge difference between trading paper and trading money. So after you have a strategy and discipline with paper trading you need to start very small with real money. Also, why YM? It seems like you have a very limited window to trade in...

I'm sure Brian Hunter could give you some help

Here's the little comment that sticks out No uptick rule wasn't the reason google got sold off so badly. The reason, as you said, was because there was a lot of potential to drive it down. Between 8/16 and 11/6 the stock went up nearly 50%. This is just my guess, but I think it sold...

Just some thoughts. WAG would have to break it jan lows for you to make money on the downside. And for the past couple of months there has been support/resistance around (roughly) 37.50. So it might have trouble getting through that.

Thanks for the input so far, I really appreciate it. Right now I'm swing trading so my classes don't interfere with trading. What I'm thinking of doing is working over the summer so I have more capital and swing trading when I'm back at school (with a different major). Right now I'm...

I'm a freshman finance major at a private university. I thought finance would be a good choice however I absolutely hate it. It seems like most of my time is filled with classes about calculus, "network building", and "taking on leadership roles". My plan initially was to get my degree and...

I'm getting out the vodka

Well most places have some variation on "best execution" but that doesn't necessarily mean much. "Best execution" with TD is going to be slower than a lot of firms. Most of the TD clients don't care about options, order execution, order routing or fill prices so they don't have much of a need...

I don't know if they will pay you, my guess would be not. If you threaten to take business elsewhere they might give you some free trades. Also consider going someplace else for a broker. I used to be TD and went to one of their options seminars where they basically explained what puts and...

It's nice to see other traders with similar problems. My girlfriend hates when I trade and tells me to make a long-term portfolio and check on it quarterly :)

This is my dorm room setup. I have TOS charts on my desktop computer, and a prophet chart of SPY on my laptop.

Hi, I've been reading threads here for a while and I'm looking for a little advice. I'm a 19 year old freshman finance major. I started traded about 2 years ago. Since then I owned Apple, Google, Deere, and Raytheon and was making a small profit. But I didn't know what I was doing and sold...
