For $595 the win/loss goes from 80/20 to 90/10....and includes a buzzer to go along with the green light, in case you fall asleep at the keyboard.

Correct, the power establishment has chosen Hillary. The deals have been cut and the turf carved up.

They blew the 2008 call but I wouldn't be surprised if they weren't coerced by Wall Street, Washington or both to stand aside while a solution was found. Anybody with any brains knew full well that there was a mountain of toxic, non-performing paper and the problem was huge. Making the agencies...

I have as much contempt for the GOP as I have for the Dem's but I reserve the greatest contempt for the tools of either.

The system is corrupt and you have to learn how to fend for yourself. That's the beauty of trading, you can do it from anywhere and the politicians be damned.

Dead people and illegals,

Also responsible for the tech REVOLUTION. The great recession was caused by politicians demanding the lowering of requirements for home ownership, leading to shit paper aka non-performing loans. Wall Street was handed the steaming mess and told to make chicken salad out of chicken shit......not...

I prefer to give someone the benefit of the doubt before writing them off as a dogmatic fool.

You are likely too young to know this but when the tax table was that high, there were a multitude of deductions and exclusions which have since been eliminated. No one paid that kind of tax.

It is the height of naivete to believe that extracting more money from the affluent and giving it to the government will solve your problems. The politicians do however count on that kind of simple "thinking".

wrbtrader and Xela are both correct, The YM and the NQ are better instruments for the beginner but given the questions you ask, you are not nearly ready to trade. That $3000 will disappear like a fart in a hurricane.

There is little to be gained by engaging in dialogues with fools. One would hope that the aspiring trader can judge between the traders and the trolls. Lacking such judgement renders success iffy anyway.

That's credible as you appear to be an expert at self delusion.

Take those ideas which resonate with you. If Al's ideas make sense, use them but you will never trade like Al. Not because you are lesser than him but because you are not him. There are as many trade plans as there are profitable traders. Early on I studied Pesevento, Ross, Raschke, Sperendeo...

Now, you're on the right track Q3D, so stop worrying about guru's and get to work.

And forget such as "beating the market" or "outsmarting the market". The market has no IQ and doesn't know you exist, one is either in synch with the market or not. We make money by understanding what the market is saying and agreeing with it.

Antonis, trading is a profession which requires highly developed skill sets both technical and behavioral. Think of it as having to get a degree in a demanding field and then getting experience in that field. It takes time. People come into it and lose because they are not ready. You will hear...

You don't have to know the future, you just have to know what is more likely to happen and build a system and rules around that expectancy. If automation is the qualifier, then I know only discretionary traders but all of us have clearly defined entry signals and trade management rules......and...

These threads often take the aspect of a room full of stoned theologians arguing about how many angels can fit on the head of a pin.

Most traders unless they are in or want to get into the guru business or want to massage their ego (not a good thing) are not going to tell you what they make. If your question is can a trader average hundreds a day, the answer is yes. If your question is can a trader make thousands a day, the...
