Of course! But how much can YOU make with that amount to start with? How much, consistently and safely can YOU make, without it turning into a crap shoot?

Finally someone addresses, imo, the OP's question. I don't think the question is how much the OP can make, it's how much someone with experience could make with that amount. I'd like to hear more about what the experienced believe they can make with that much of a start ($2500) in Forex.

Thanks again for the suggestions. I'm adding them to a Yahoo portfolio as fast as they can be suggested. In a couple of days, the portfolio is down -2.63% that past two trading days. MCD held up the first day and is down the least. I'm not disparaging the suggestions. I've just noticed...

I've gone ahead and added all the symbols so far recommended to a Yahoo portfolio. I'm turning them over to my friend as i check them out briefly if they look ok. We'll see what my friend does with the information and compare that with my Yahoo "Elite BuyHold" portfolio over time. Thanks...

Very nice! Warren Buffet move over!

Very interesting. Thanks very much!

I have a friend with a buy and hold mentality who is looking for undervalued stocks. For example, BAC looks undervalued to him, compared to other bank stocks etc. So this is not exactly the Darvas mentality that looks to buy the hottest stock in the hottest sector at it's high. On the other...

No! We have to make it better. I can supply photos of females from the planet Xenon (two galaxies from here), from 100 years into the future...which are way better than rcg girls collection! However, people have to decide, up front, who ya'll want to post pictures here, me or rcg girl...so...

Shouldn't this thread be in the Psychology forum? ;]

Either that or everything is a symbol. If everything (ie. "physical", metaphysical) is a symbol of what a mind is thinking, a good psychologist might be able to find the symptoms of observed phenomena, and draw up some parables to explain the psychosis.

In 2006 i had back-tested a system that bought the Russell 2000 stock index on a down day and sold the next open. If i recall, it had a profit factor of near 2.0 for a long time. There was a thread here on ET devoted to the phenomenon. Since then, i have no data. Someone ran it on some of...

So there's different ways of interpreting this scientific research. I'm not sure what the OP is saying exactly. But to me, the lesson seems clear enough: Minds (monkeys) have been trained (have learned) to think of what's normal, natural and good (the banana) as bad, insomuch as trying to...

Actually its the other way around. Egotistical self importance is what leads an otherwise humble, but very powerful being, down a ladder in the first place. You can see the effects of egotistical self importance everywhere in the monkey cage. For example, everyone is different, and wants to...

Generally speaking, what you consider to be natural and normal, such as stars and planets, are the result of something like an acid trip, except on a much larger scale, inside a much more powerful mind. So it could be said that everyone who thinks they are normal, are actually high and...

If you let climbing the ladder symbolize ascendance/transcendence to a True Self, then it may be possible also to understand the behavior of atheists also. The realm of imagination is as mischievous as the scientist(s) in this experiment. Mind's have been conditioned to put others down...

I like what RG said. I'd add, since when is a $1K or a $4K account so small it must blow? If you are trading coffee futures then yah, maybe. What are you trading (planning to trade)? There's this thing we could call granularity. It's about the smallest risk you can take per deal, without...
