    Why trading communities have a low respect for scalpers?

    I think you should work on your self esteem issues. You are obviously too worried and focused on what others think! I have never found anyone who wasn't interested in hearing more about what I do when I tell them that I trade for a living.

    Why trading communities have a low respect for scalpers?

    Like most newbies, you are completely wrong about everything! Traders provide liquidity to the markets, next time you want to get out, thank a trader, otherwise the spreads you would pay would be much greater then the few cents they are today. And in times of greater mkt volatility, there...

    which broker offers tradeideas free besides scottrade?

    $40 bucks a month in Free stuff is a poor reason to choose a broker! Find a place that gives you the best combination of execution and costs and then get TI on your own!

    Building Wealth

    Trading is a business, and in this business you eat what you kill. Problem is you have been overeating, and that's one reason that you havn't built any wealth. In this business, you are either growing or you are dying, and if you are barely getting by every month and not building any...

    The Hybrid?

    Trading with the specialist was much easier. The market had more depth to it....instead of a couple hundred shares up, there was always several thousand shares available within a few cents of the specialist market. A trader could trade 5k shares much easier and move them on a single print, not...

    Visa IPO...Overhyped?

    Not a great time for credit type players, IMO. The straw that breaks the camels back, IMO, is whether or not they just make fees from transactions, or if they actually have sub prime type exposure.

    This Market Sucks!!!

    I got completely screwed today, was up and fairly happy, then ended up losing 5k! Needless to say, the last half hour was a bit of a shocker. In the end, I survived, and Monday is another day, another opportunity, and I'll make my losses back next week.

    Averaging 5%/month. Compare to you?

    All the traders I know talk in terms of $$ made today. We have found that % returns are just too inflated and not an accurate measure of our success on any given day.

    How long to trade a 100 shares?

    Until you can make consistent profits! 4 out of 5 days profitable, for two weeks straight, then increase size to 200, trade that for a week, then go to 300, trade that for a month or so, and then increase size as you grow more comfortable. Trading is a marathon, not a sprint!
