    Futures: Most margin & Commission

    Yea, their "free" X-Trader is only one exchange at a time. You can get all the exchanges, but it will cost you a good chunk of change that smaller traders can't justify.

    Futures: Most margin & Commission

    Velocity gives cheap commissions. They also allow you to chart your P&L, let you know P&L per hour, W/L ratio, and some other stuff. If you don't care for that stuff, take a look a deep discount trading. The guy running it, Howard Lender, is very quick to respond to emails and any problems you...

    We Have Topped

    We agree that was one of those obvious resistance lines, but I don't believe you were saying that 1370 would be THE top that one could ride for a very nice move. If I'm mistaken on that, you can correct me. I personally think the ES still has room to move on the upside. These moves remind me of...

    We Have Topped

    We are down 2 handles atm. A far cry from a pullback. You started this thread at 1,322. Is there a point when you say you are wrong or do you just repeat yourself about the ES being overextended over and over again? Oh wait, I already know the answer to that question. Long term technical...

    Why do 5% of Traders Win?

    I wasn't really pointing my statement at you. Seems to me many people here do believe automation would make many people profitable, which I believe to be untrue. Looking at the filled in charts and can see patterns clearly. In my opinion, it is totally different when trying to do it in real...

    Why do 5% of Traders Win?

    Emotions aren't the problem by itself. Uncontrolled emotions are the problem. You can't make decisions without bringing emotions into it. Humans are not robots and will never be robots. Even traders that automate their strategies have to deal emotions. Can they handle it when their system goes...

    He is not saying you get a salary of $10,000 a year. He is saying the point of the project is to get them to make about $10,000 a year instead of the $3,500.

    Why do 95 % of traders lose ?

    Edge is an ambiguous term on purpose. Everyone has a different edge (something that makes them profitable). It can be something singular or multiple things put together. How a person sets up their chart can be an edge. Maybe it is his psychology that is his edge, more important for discretionary...

    Why do 95 % of traders lose ?

    I'd say most traders lose because of reasons #3-5 of what King said. Most people give up after there first blown up account, and it was probably a small account to begin with. People have unrealistic ideas about how easy trading is and the amount of time it takes you to become profitable. Add...

    Really need some advice on career change...

    I'm not sure of how to get a salaried trading job, but just remember that even getting an MBA is not a sure thing, and you could still get stuck with something you don't like. There is a bunch of information that we don't know about you that is necessary to make a good decision. How old are...
