    What would be a good filter for a Mean-Reverting system?

    You could try the most simple filter for a mean reversion system: 200 MA. It works well, at least for US stock market, with these systems.

    Day trading through a wi-fi connection at home?

    I like to quote myself ;) Very few of us day trade or scalp.... and actually make money from it, obviously. OP, if you discretionary trade like me and your orders are anything else than limit, they are impacted by the time you see something and the time your order is executed. During that...

    Day trading through a wi-fi connection at home?

    I discretionary day / scalp trade the NQ. Few months ago, I went back on all my trades to check precisely how efficient were my entry and exit times. I also did a MAE MFE analysis for this period of time. I use Journalytix and that helps a lot. After I upgraded my internet router and went...

    The main reason why doing business with these get-funded programs is a bad idea...

    There's none so deaf as those who will not hear :sneaky: Like the entire industry, (most of?) these companies are selling.. A dream: The dream that a trader will not be alone, a trader will be better with them, a trader will be successful, a trader will make money thanks to his talent, a trader...

    Explanation for common types of trades for day traders

    Looking for experienced traders on profit sharing

    OP, your idea is not bad, but if you want to attract experienced and even successful traders, you would have to give way more incentive than an account of 10K +50/50 split of profit. Also, communication and marketing are part of this kind of business... Trading and Money Management are...

    Educators who Have Zero proof they even trade (99%) - wtf?

    For compliance, as you are not an Advisor and you are an educator, you know you can show your own trading details and results. You would then write down the usual "My own broker statement are shown for entertaining only. There are no guarantee that my teaching, my course, etc.... will make...

    Educators who Have Zero proof they even trade (99%) - wtf?

    Well, if they can't prove they constancy make money, it is just charade. But hey, if they really make money and not just pocket money, why do they try so hard to make a living from teaching? I also think you mean well Ken and I agree with Robert on this one: Teaching a process is definitely a...

    The main reason why doing business with these get-funded programs is a bad idea...

    I agree with you all. As a business owner, would you "fund" a trader that you know nothing about? Seriously, who will give real money to anyone who pass a 15 days test? Not me for sure. A way more serious test would be to check at least 6 to 12 months of intra day trading record (audited and...
