    Age and trading

    Reading,from the first post to the last above, I was struck by the pick up in fervour as the discussion moved from "age and trading" to the discussion of "God, The Universe, and Everything." Perhaps this is an indication that deep down, once man has satisfied his need for food and shelter, he...

    Age and trading

    I have just looked at this thread. Its' title caught my attention. As a 53 year old I am qualified to comment :-) The market in the UK had interested me for years but it wasn't until I took early retirement and moved out of the city that I actually bought shares. My first foray into...

    Dark Horse sums it up well. You can read a book on swimming etc, but one day you have to enter the water and swim. So get off your butt and get to it. Toby

    Barrons 7/2/01: Direct Access Showdown

    As a reader from the UK I am amazed that a publication like Barrons was allowed to print inaccurate and misleading information, and then to skulk behind "It's only aimed at high net worth clients." Further proof of lazy reporting is evidenced by the later inclusion of the likes of IB after a...

    Using Omnitrader

    Opinion seems to be that Omnitrader is a waste of money. The below link was found by using the "search" facility on Elite trader. So if you want further opinion on that or any other software or subject, then I urge you to use the Elite Trader "Search" facility. It saves time. it saves...

    These sites started out as free and informative until they discovered that Fools, or the purely bone idle, or greedy, can easily be parted from their money. So now they simply peddle information to the intellectually idle knowing that few would ask the question, "If he/she is so good at...

    www.methodtrading.com

    Agreed AAA, isn't it a part of "thestreet.com" ? What was an informative site with contributions from Gary Smith etc has now degenerated into a repository for mammon and snake oil. Toby UK

    IB trading platform (E-Minis)

    I don't like vendors who supposedly give opinions on trading which generally are completed with a "For more information see my site" or simply plug some site that exists to part fools from their money. However, Def sells nothing albeit he represents a broker, as does Don and others. We ask...

    a shout out to the seasoned veterans

    We have SSF's in the UK, traded on LIFFE; albeit volume is increasing, comment has been made on the wide spreads (rather like UK spread betting firms) and the opinion that straight FTSE, SP500 etc Futures and emini's are better trading vehicles because of lower spreads and broker commissions (IB...

    Advice needed about top traders!

    Well I live in the UK and know of traders who make money without working for banks. Secondly, if you attack people like Don Bright with such juvenile language I trust you can provide evidence to prove such attacks, since logic would decree that a percentage of Don Brights traders are more...

    90% of traders loose. Trade against yourself !

    My correction of the useof the word, "Loose," was light hearted and by no means a censure on your general English. I and many others would be very happy to speak a foreign language to the standard of your English. happy trading. Toby
