    Is Trading Right for Me or Should I Stick with Poker?

    Obviously a level. No one who is smart enough or lucky enough to make 6 figures a year playing poker would be dumb enough to ask this question on an open forum at site where 95% of the people who post are "wanna be" traders. Do you really think that any response would be anything more...

    CNBC making me sick today

    Maybe a better question would be Why do you care? While you're answering that, I'll ask myself Why did I respond to this stupid thread?

    shocking IB Wire incident

    I'm short a 10 lot from the break of today's PP, with my stop to lock-in 20 handles. I don't care whether I pay $50.00 total or $40.00 total, I've locked up $10,000. The difference on a 10 lot is maybe a tick.

    shocking IB Wire incident

    I think you're statement should read: "As a side note, I don't know why anyone<b>,who is under capitalized,</b> would want to trade futures with them. " "Their intra-day margin requirements are ridiculous." btw: That's exactly why I do trade futures with them.

    Daytrade Futures C2 system

    If my Dad gave money to someone who just started trading a system the first week of October, I'd be cleaning up the spare room in my house, as he will be living in it very soon.

    tightest trading range today in how many months?

    The last time the ranges contracted under 20 for the es, was around the labor day holiday. The high range expansion started in September. This has been the easiest day to day trade in awhile. Keying off of the PP has been great (as it usually is).

    Navellier Sees Stocks `At Least 30% Higher' in a Year

    What would you expect people to say who make a living prospecting for equity money? If any money manager ever tells their clients or prospects that the asset class that they manage money in will be "dead money" for x period of time, then they might as well close their business.

    prop firm for futures

    You won't find any. No need for a "prop" firm to give retail traders more rope to hang themselves. Margins on almost all futures contracts are about 10% of the underlying and intra-day is about 5%. If you aren't making good money with that kind of leverage, then you probably need to go...

    A good time to loan (mortgage a home you own) and invest in the stock market?

    Since you can see the future, could you give me a 5 team parlay for this weekend?

    Post-mortem: Was it wrong to get out at exact low?

    you've already received some pretty good advice. something i learned a long time ago: if a stock is trading below its 200 day ema and that 200 day ema is moving down, you will on average, lose money by being long that issue. take a look at your entry date: 1) was c above or below its...

    Congress just doesn't get it

    I agree, all this plan will do is slow down the collapse. It won't change the inevitable ending, it will just change how we get there.

    Congress just doesn't get it

    If they don't pass this 700 billion dollar allowance, Hank Paulson and all of his friends at GS are in trouble. Hanky says "you gotta do it" cause otherwise, he and his friends net worth will be destroyed.

    Opening Orders - 2008

    Nope, the SKF is out of whack and broken due to them not being able to short many of the issues that comprise the index. You're better off shorting the XLF.

    Opening Orders - 2008

    opening order strategy....badly crippled. pairs trading.....badly crippled. using an option strategy that "might" require you to be short the issue on assignment...badly crippled. looks like a viable alternative is to go long the strongest issue in an etf and short the etf (although...

    Opening Orders - 2008

    Sadly, there will be some traders and their families financially destroyed by this over at the CBOE. Think of the thousands of short call positions that were not trading yesterday, as premium was zero, and they open up at $5-$10 dollars. I guess these people just weren't "big enough" to save.

    Trading For Living - S&P 500 Market.

    35 points on the pivot point trade today, although my stop at this point is 1158, so I might net out 25. I'll take it any day (any week, too). It's been a great week so far. Let's hope it continues. <b> now over 40 points, stop at 1151 to lock in 31 points</b>

    Trading For Living - S&P 500 Market.

    Thank you, lol Your postings on here of your "strategy" are very inconsistant, while it is obvious that you have no idea what your indicators are. The bottom line is Becky Biggs is just another troll / fraud looking for gullible newbies to pay him / her to "teach them to trade" the S&P 500...
