    Time for 2 monitors

    You know I was looking at LCD's at CompUSA last week and wanted to check on the Viewsonic VA1912wb which had really good reviews here http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=1785939&Sku=V18-1960 and is very reasonable. But in person it didn't seem that...

    Worth switching from IB to Tradestation for the platform?

    Yes with Tradestation you need separate accounts if you want to trade Equities, Options, and Futures. Equities and Options from one account and Futures from the other. $5k min for both.

    Continuing: That night he called his mother, which was the hardest phone call he ever had to make. He felt like a complete failure. He felt like he should be put in shackles and hauled away. "Mom," I said, "I need to talk to you." "What is it?" she asked "I think you need to come over to the...

    Stock Market Wizard, Mark Cook was using the trading strategy early in his career of selling options and making good money doing it. He was doing so well with his trading that he started trading for some family members. He had a system worked out that he thought he'd "perfected" that was...

    i've lost 400k the last 2 months i'm quitting

    This is very good advice. And following this is a post I made 3 years ago about Mark Cook who also blew out his account, but eventually came back. Sorry to hear about your losses and thanks for having the integrity to post what happened. That shows a lot. Let us know how things go. Best wishes...

    Disheartened.

    Agree with most of what's being said here in response to your post. Maybe scalping's not your gig. Everyone's different and not everyone's cut out to be a great scalper. Why fight that? If you're good trading futures (although there seemed to be a bit of lack of certainty in the way you said it)...

    Great movie. :) Memorable Quotes from Giant (1956) Jett Rink: You do look pretty, Miss Leslie, near good enough to eat! Leslie Benedict: Money isn't everything, Jett. Jett Rink: Not when you've got it. Uncle Bawley: Bick, you shoulda shot that fella a long time ago. Now he's too rich to...

    We'll tryied shorting YM in the last few minutes looking for a minipullback EOD. Naturally it didn't. :D Should have read my own thread title. LOL :D But it did pullback just now and I covered for a $10 loss. :) Guess I'll have to skip dinner. :) Should have taken my own advice and went long...

    Never Short a Dull Market?

    But the market was far from "dull" in 2000 and 2001. Now 2002 was another story. Ha :D Hardest year to trade I can remember. Market's trying to rally here but no volume. I may try a short in a minute. :)

    Never Short a Dull Market?

    Boring day. :) And dull, dull, dull. :) Is this one of those "Never short a dull market" days? Or maybe it's a "take the afternoon off" day. :D Made my little chump change trades this AM. :) Tempted to short the little bugger anyway. Of course as soon as I do they'll off Bin Laden. :D

    Futures at their lowest level of predictability

    Sorry, couldn't help but chuckle :D Whatever do they mean by that? :D Who really knows where the market's headed beforehand even though some pretend to? :D We all have our reads maybe, but there are so many variables. And right now after the market sold off so much and was maybe "oversold"...
