    Quitting Trading

    I really think you should stop trading. You've traded for 8 years and have not had a profitable year, you simple aren't cut out for trading. It is nothing to be ashamed of, this is a very specific career which is great for some but not meant for everyone. Someone suggested not to stop...

    How you manage getting stuck in a halt

    I was in CTB not that long ago when it was halted....i just sat on my hands and waited for it to resume trading. I trade pairs and can hold some positions for a long duration, before you get into trading you have to quantify the risk to potential risk if you're in x amount of shares and it...

    Tips to pass the series 7 with minimal effort

    Anyone that benefited from having information that isn't available to the public is against the law. You don't have to be an insider to be convicted of using insider information.

    Looking for Career change (Canadian)

    Passion does not equal talent nor profitability but it does give perseverance. Once you begin trading you have to make the decision whether or not you're in it for the long haul, expect it to take 3-5 years to be consistently profitable (in other words trading becomes your primary source of...

    Swifttrade Interview

    From what you're telling us it seems your model is far more advanced than the complex and sophisticated strategies you'll find at swift...'if it goes 3 cents against you get out'. I'm sure you can find a decent platform to link to your excel and other programs and keep 100% of the profits...

    We'll see if there's any continuation with it after today, MOS is the most over-valued of the fertilizers.

    Maybe you should tone down the size a bit, that's a good size position to be caught in if it starts moving against you fast. Do you have the experience and edge to trade with big size in case something happens?

    Bright trading and any thoughts

    Nowhere in this maze of run on sentences did you state your trading period with Bright - a criteria the OP put forth. Perhaps you're a disgruntled ex trader, but i could go around slinging mud at every other firm out there for no constructive purpose.

    Pairs Trading Software

    I've had one negative week out of the last 12 trading pairs, only because i took heat on BSC/MS. And the amount i lost in that blowup was less than the previous week's net profit. I was actually short the spread for awhile, it was stupid for me to take real heat on it because the writing was...

    Bright trading and any thoughts

    I trade remote with Bright and very satisfied (have been with a few different firms). I trade with a group of traders each day (you can request to be placed in a mentorship program depending on your style, which is a great way of helping new traders succeed) and we discuss different...

    pro's and con's of series 7

    I want to re-iterate that the preparation of taking it can put you in a mindset that's conducive to trading. The series 7 has little value in making you a sucessful trader. I just like that the formality of taking this test is a partial screen for those impatient traders that can't wait to...
