    Lost half of my years salary in a week!

    Excellent question, may I offer an answer? The TOTALLY RECKLESS, IRRESPONSIBLE kind. Mike, after reading yet even more posts from "your" forum, I really am getting a sense that you have helped a lot of people over there. Kudos to you for that. But I have to ask you again, "WHAT THE...

    Lost half of my years salary in a week!

    LOL Maybe it should be called "Mikey's Hideout". Someone posted on there about this thread, asking if it's true that he blew out someone's account in a week, so far no response.

    Lost half of my years salary in a week!

    MP, the bottom line is that you recklessly traded this guy's account with UNBELIEVABLY BAD money management. If it were me, I'd pay him back COMPLETELY to try and redeem what dignity I had left.

    What ticketwatcher wrote was actually pretty tame. But you're right, there are a lot of ***holes who post on here, but I don't think TW is one of 'em. Don-

    Financial Advisor needing advice for client

    I've heard some good things about coiledmarkets.com. The owner posts on here under his real name, AustinP. ( a real novelty, for sure ). His posts to this board are well thought out and usually make sense, which is more than can be said for many others here. Good luck~

    Download speed

    http://2wire.com/meter/ http://bandwidthplace.com/speedtest/ Couple more places to test your upload and download speed. I was told by my provider that when you pay for a certain amount of speed, that will only happen under optimal conditions, which isn't very often. I'm paying for 1.5...

    Pay services that select your picks.

    Yeah, I thought so at first too, but since he only had 6 posts and he mentioned a search didn't help, I figured he needed to be pointed in the right direction.

    Pay services that select your picks.

    Get on over to thestreet.com and have a look. He hosts a show on CNBC? or one of those channels called "Mad Money". Can't describe the show, you'll have to see it for yourself. Don-

    I learned a VERY important lesson

    What the hell? Does that mean that when you place a protective stop with your broker you're not protected 24/7? That's ridiculous.

    Black Monday, 19 years later

    Exactly 19 years to the day from Black Monday, the Dow closes above 12,000. Coincidence?

    Reading Price Action

    No kidding? Good luck with that. Makes ya wonder why all these people are using charts showing all these different indicators, or why they watch the news, or use backtesting systems, or volume flow. The only way I use my gut feeling to trade is that I never use it. It just gets in the way of...

    Reading Price Action

    Any trade opened and closed during the same session is a day trade. Could be one trade, could be several, all would be day trades. Swing trades remain open for more than one day but not more than a month, or thereabouts. Trading from your gut feeling? At least you figured out how foolish that...

    What would an experience trader do on a situation like this?

    And of course today it broke $69.00 Since you can't see the future( at least most of us can't), in your case you did the right thing. Getting past your losses is one of the hardest things to do. Every successful trader must learn to do that. The value in losses is learning from them. In...

    es profit on 1/4 point can it be done?

    Methinks he's been sitting on his butt so long now that he's gonna have the world's worst case of "Outhouse Polio". Saxon, just throw a couple grand in an account, get a platform that uses bracketing and put on a few trades. That will tell you all you need to know about your idea, good or...

    Funding Question

    Minimum requirements are listed in each broker's website, at least most of them have it listed. Click on the BROKER link at the top of the page and spend some time there. Most are between $3k and $5k. Minimum amount for success? If you have no plan with an edge, you could easily go through...
