    How can i raise money?

    Only with the statement that you have actually forward tested you completely lose credibility in case there ever was any. You gotta prove first that you can make a living from trading before asking for others' saving. No hard feeling but I strongly assume that you are facing a mindstage of...

    How can i raise money?

    Just one point: since when is the strategy working and how did it before? As it comes so it goes. If you were fully convinced of a timely proven method there would be no question how to raise money.

    Taking 103K to 1.2million by Year End 2008

    I differ here strongly. When you trade options and you know how to you will not increase your results by chosing other instruments offering higher leverage (prop on stocks). Psychologically everytime you enter an option trade you do it in a convinced mindstage as the full and maximum risk is...

    I quit my job and skipped education to pursue Forex fulltime!:) What now?

    I do very much agree here. Learn about orders and their properties, some money management rules and then open the door. Stategies from books don't work from alone until you learn to filter them through your own window of personal experience. Start small but real! Reading is a waste of time...

    Trading IS Gambling for nerds

    Every newbie should start with the believe trading is gambling and try to win the game and not the money. This way there would grow many more winners as it would eliminate the hope symptom. The game gets boring as soon you make money but still you would play because finally you will see the...

    serious psychological issue

    Let me tell you what I think about what you describe and please don't feel offended as that is not my intention. I think your problem is that first you talk too much and the second is I assume that you lie and pretend. You might talk the truth now and here but it did take you long before you...

    I blew out my account

    I know only 2 traders (personal friends) who did never blow out. They are about 10 years in the game now but guess what, they also didnt make any money during such a long time. Ups and downs and the whole again. They are not traders but the real gamblers wasting such an ammount of time and...

    money doesn't make me happy, (nor anything else)

    seconded. You'll get so many hookers and other chicks to screw there you'll not recognize if it makes you happy before you are old. The drug part there I would skip though.

    Trading better when youre down

    I think there is indeed something to it. When looking back I usually had best results when the very first trade of the day was a loser. Not to the extreme of your example but when I lost some it inspired to more focus and ambition. Additionally remarked I always switched to another market...

    The Surf Report

    you are wrong here buddy and luckily for your case we maintain in congestion during a downside bias. Get out as long as you can, this is not a V-bottom like you probably expect or wish for. Any further upmove towards 9.5 is a good exit point for you. Hasta luego.

    The Surf Report

    sorry I just flew through the past few pages here, dont really know much what you are doing. I agree on your gold call though I think it to go seriously lower than 600. Do I understand this right that you blow up if Dow goes below 7777 and if why would you let this happen?

    Advice for someone who wants to learn trading

    I am sure I could learn from you as from anybody else. Thingy is that the OP cannot learn anything from you. You say with 50 one is to old to learn trading contradicting yourself when claiming that your superior intellect enables yourself to trade R/S levels when you are drunk. A sign of...

    Advice for someone who wants to learn trading

    What's nonsense? I believe you straight away that you have lost your mind, what I am not so sure about is whether you ever found it again. No need to offense if you can just see your own hard way of walking. If you started with 23 you sound like 25 now.:)

    Advice for someone who wants to learn trading

    I agree that the brightest minds get the best results but that doesnt mean they are the ones working the hardest. Considering that best results doesn't necessarily mean the most money. You will never be able to master the markets if you dont arrive at the standpoint that money is not more than a...

    Bangkok/Phuket

    Hi Larry, I was in Singapore a couple of times and honestly said I dont like it much. Regarding client potential I dont think that location is an issue as people will come to where they get quality provided and for the thing I want to do there is no need of attracting hundreds or thousands of...

    Bangkok/Phuket

    Good internet connection in bkk is not a problem while for Phuket it sometimes is. For somebody who daytrades many roundturns a day it is probably not reliable enough unless using bracket orders. I have been using ADSL and Broadband provided in Phuket and most of the time it is good enough to...
