Hi guys, do you think my degree in English will help me to become a profitable trader? (I'm kidding you jackasses)

How about selling naked puts regularly to generate income and build a portfolio or reits? (that is, once you resolve which ones to buy...)

I believe that there is an elf 8 galaxies away who is "God." He is the sole creator of the universe. I take it you don't believe in my elf? According to your logic, you've now created a religion of your own. You have no more evidence that the elf doesn't exist anymore than I do that it...

I have a 17" MAG monitor. The model that I am using stopped working one day about a year after i got it, but Best Buy provided me a new one as per my warranty. I dunno if it broke as a fluke, because MAG's suck or because flat screens just do that.

Less than half that per day and you'd have to get a job? Ummm...250 days a year x $2500 a day = 625K a year! Any less than 625K a year and you'll quit trading and get a job? You must have a very expensive lifestyle and a really good job waiting for you. Am I missing something???

It would be impossible for me to start trading. As I said, I don't have the money, and there's no way I could get the money because I have no income. Second, I'm going to be in Europe for the next year and a half then I'm going to law school for 3 years. There's no time to trade. The best...

Thanks for the reply.

No, I don't actually trade. I don't have nearly enough money and won't for a long time. I'm a po' 21 y/o college student, and daddy ain't giving me a trading stake in this lifetime. Anywho, by the time I actually do put real money down, I'll have "pontificated, analyzed and asked so many...

Dammit you stingy bastards!!!! Answer me!!! I know you know!!!!

No need to go to Asia, just go to Europe. There it's quite common for young girls to marry older, more-established men. Only in America is there the wide-spread phenomenon of young, beautiful girls without a pot to piss in marrying equally young men without a pot to piss in. My uncle, who is...

I'm backtesting a $50,000 acct. on highly liquid stocks like qqq, dell, csco, msft, intc, etc. How much commission do I add to factor in for slippage and commission?

My 2cents: Markets have always trended and they always will. Trend following systems are the most robust and will always work. If, on the other hand, your system exploits some minute, arbitrary, short-term inefficiency, then you can expect it to stop working eventually.

That link on the other thread was to a place which sells systems, not allows you to automate yours...I think. In my cursory research, I've found the best brokerage for lil' FX players is OandA (no minimums/tightest spreads). I'm specifically curious if anyone knows of any system building...

Does anyone know what platforms are available to create a forex system? I know Wealthlab can do FX, but is it compatable with any FX brokers?

Thanks!

1. Too cheap to pay for it. 2. Aren't there securty measures (passwords etc.) in place?

YAY!!!! I'm happier than a school girl in a candy store!!!!

Let's say you're daytrading a stock and it is halted. What can you do to hedge your position? Should you buy a put/call in case it gaps waaay against you?

I somehow managed to buy two computers without Excel, so I'm stuck with Microsoft Spreadsheet. To make matters worse, Stockwatch Pro, which is what I use for backtesting, is severly lacking on system statistics (max dd., sharpe ratio, etc.) So....Does anyone know how to plug in formulas...

Did you continue trading the system???? What ever happened????
