I agree with you about watching the loss limit. Just because we can lose up to a thousand doesn't mean we should. Don't fight the price action if wrong. The market is never wrong only traders are. My durations are long because I do alot of overnight trading. One day I took a $500 loss instead of...

oh yeah I hit the profit target final acct bal:$55,312.

Wow! I just made a Combine by the skin of my teeth! I tried TST/Patak a couple of years with the 2 point stop which was a joke but this time with almost four I had a chance. My final Combine stats: Winning Day %50 Max Drawdown -1750 Largest Losing Day-962 Total Win % 47 Avg Win 1697 Avg Loss...

Well folks another combine, another profitable month. I've been profitable 2 of the 3 monthly combines and 1 of the 2 accelerateds. However doing the accelerated made me realize the ridiculousness of the $500 loss limit. If I put out 5 contracts every point and got filled on all 5 I was already...

One good thing about Patak is it has given me a feel for futures trading. Another thing that bothers me is the different loss limits for Combine versus live. What if you learn to trade one way in Combine but find it doesnt work with the tighter stop limit live? As for my uncle now that I've...

I wish had the nerve to ask my multimillionaire uncle but I don't. I will come in to a sizable trust when he sells his bank but that could be tomorrow or ten years from now.

I've tried two Combines with them. In December I had one week of "training". I didn't need it. I made $5000 in 5 days usually getting filled on 3 of 5 lots. The next week (my first week of Combine) I made another $3000 in 3 days doing the same as first week. I got chopped up in the middle of...

I use firefox and I fixed it in one try.

I've looked at the site before. They require a capital contribution from the trader right?

What is their business model? I forgot I applied with them and filled out their questionaire. I have an interview with them as well.

Whats the word on Warrior? I've never heard of them. Are they the ones currently advertising on Monster? http://jobsearch.monster.com/getjob.asp?JobID=49441023&AVSDM=2006%2D10%2D23+15%3A08%3A12&Logo=1&JobTitle=Trader&q=trader&sort=rv&vw=b&cy=US&brd=1,128,1862,1863&JSYESREG=1&dcjvlid=612

I've never heard of wcm. Whats the word on those guys?

Guess I need clarification then. I obtained my Series 7 and Series 66 licenses in 2002. I worked for a broker friend of a friend of the family to get the licenses to open up more opportunities in the field. I was under the impression those licenses were good for two years (i.e. 2004)after...

So whats the verdict since the change? I interviewed with Zone about a year ago. My first interview out of school last August. But when the guy indicated to me that his traders do "hundreds of trades" a day I indicated I wasn't interested in just generating commissions for them. As for Houston...

The CPI advanced 0.4% in March vs. an expected 0.3% rise, but the core number, excluding food and energy, really caught the market's attention. Core inflation increased 0.3% last month vs. expectations for a 0.2% gain, mostly the result of a slowing housing market that boosted rental costs to...

I'm only up $6000 and yet I'm in top 22%. It's kinda sad 78% of players can't make at least $6000 with $1mil.

heard that 70% of trainees are droping out after couple of month. 3. Trader Trainees are required to spend 18 months in Atlanta. according to website
