Yeah, but these results are almost worthless. How do we know that the people that took awhile to learn are those that had jobs and were learning trading while on the job, vs. someone who went proprietary right off the bat and started out of college or HS. I took about a year. But if I had...

I don't have any comment on all the extra debate. But with the article, I agree. I really do think fear of success is what was holding me back when I first started, and some days it comes back to haunt me, but, I feel like I'm going to be pulling in huge profits like Reardon Metal &...

... huh??? :confused: Well I'm obviously confused, but I'm 19, I'm able to be confused sometimes....

Greenstreet and other IB's of Alaron Trading. They have CQGTrader, which in my opinion, is similar to X_Trader, and it worked fine for me when using it and not a single problem, plus they recently upgraded the interface and everything, so maybe look out for that.

I have HEARD of people on ET intending on leaving Ameritrade, and then Ameritrade offers them a better deal to try to keep them. I'd ask for them to give you an offer better than MBTrading or somewhere around IB. Apparently, if what I read is true about how much brokers pay per share...

1 Minute Timeframe Now 20, 50, and 200 MA's: 20 determines extremly strong trends, usually in the morning or during big breakouts, 50 determines medium trends, intraday trends usefull around lunch to determine possible reversals and such, and the 200, well that's just my speciality because...

Seeing as I'm 19, and most of my friends are not in my position. I told one of my friends I was a trader, trading stocks, kinda like on Wall St. and stuff. Then that person immediately thought I was rich and I could tell he was jealous and pissed. So now I just tell my friends around my age...

Funny story, when I was really young, just starting to play baseball when we actually had a pitcher on the other team. I was always scared of getting hit by the ball, and because of this, I never swung properly, and I was always afraid, and was one of the worst hitters on our team, until I...

I've noticed a few things on T&S to indicate fairly dramatic moves that are about to happen. I still can't use T&S or Level 2 very often, because the stocks just move far too fast that I trade, but I try to implement it in my trading when I can, I am still just a pure chartist though.

I was hoping Truth would change, but he just keeps pushing harder and harder, already up to 7 lots, he is money hungry, and he is trying so hard to make his money goals. What happens when he doesn't hit his goal one month, does he add another lot to the mix, or what happens when his account...

trailing stop market = market order trailing stop limit = limit order Some applications have it worded differently, but should be able to figure it out, or at least ask the developer of the software.

If you want to be successful at this business, treat it like a business, and all businesses have expenses, and your education needs the best materials you can get. I strongly suggest picking up Trading in the Zone by Mark Douglas on Amazon, it's less than 20 dollars now I think when I last...

Part of me wants to applaud the fact that some mods have a sense of humor, but another wants me to say that it didn't have any effect in improving ET whatsoever and somewhat lowers the standard. We all know mod's have lives as well, maybe one sentence or two for a joke, but to write a whole...

I'm confused. If I sign up to a retail broker today, when this whole deal right here affect my trading at the retail broker in any way, and if so, in what ways are most possible? Also, can we have a straight up answer, will someone like me, who just wants to make a few trades, but not...

Agreed, definitely nice to see someone grow right in front of our eyes (that didn't sound right) Very good indeed.

Woohoo!? I wonder who will take over the USA job, haven't heard anything about it yet, but hope to get the coach from Germany, as I believe he can bring new ideas to our team and bring some of that European excellence to our game. BTW, isn't it now time for World Cup 2010 thread? hehe

Trading in the Zone by Mark Douglas, it changed me, and if there is something that I can contribute to my still being here on ET right now and still trading, it definitely has to be that book, along with experience.

Optioncoach pretty much hit the nail on the head.

Once you show off the lambo or mansion (if you ever get that good), then I think they can respect it. I certainly hope I get that good, although don't know if I'll need the lambo or the mansion. lol Just like professional poker players talk about. Seems like most wouldn't be getting support...

I like chicken. ..... Oh and trading as well.
