    The bitter truth about Patak Trading

    Ok, last rant, i promise. What kind of firm treats profitable months as a losing endeavor? TST! Say you are up 8k on the 50k combine. Tough Sneakers! Do not pass Go and try again! For free this time. Because you know, time is free. Instead of looking for handouts and schemes...

    The bitter truth about Patak Trading

    What he said! haha. There are some days that if you catch a good pivot bounce or a nice low or high to trade, your risk reward is awesome simply because when crude moves, IT MOVES! 11 am to 2pm are the optimal times to trade it. 8 am to 9 am is tricky, especially at the 8 30. You can be...

    The bitter truth about Patak Trading

    Or, perhaps, like many American business models, they are looking for delusional idiots. BTW, I was once one of these idiots until I saw that I traded better on my own, with no time restrictions and tight stops. See: Real Estate Market, Retail Traders and the Entire College Market Model...

    The bitter truth about Patak Trading

    Lets go over the details. - Hit 10% returns on a sliding time scale. Time is your enemy, as your time shortens up, you start to lose your 200 deposit combine fee. Soon, you will develop horrible trading habits in order to hit these ridiculous parameters. - You are paying for a test...

    Facebook IPO

    Nailed it. I think you are wrong about google though. That company is still growing. Think of what they have done in cellphone space, also, wait till they make more hardware or a low priced pc. Google is the next microsoft or has already surpassed them. FB is not high on my list of...

    Is Alex Gerchik is a super famous trades on NYSE?

    btw. teaching others how to trade is not always a bad thing. its a great secondary or even primary income. what i dont understand is why its ok to pay colleges 30k to learn NOTHING but its bad to charge a couple of grand to teach people how to fish. some guys are snake oil salesmen, thats...

    Is Alex Gerchik is a super famous trades on NYSE?

    I think Anaconda is either some kind of spook or govt. The negativity, the arrogance lead me to think of the irony of his nickname. Stay away from that guy. Loco en la cabeza. I have him blocked and suggest you do the same.

    The case against college.

    BTW, at 8.4 posts a day you sound like a real winner. You must be a real busy guy, and as far as an inferiority complex, maybe a superiority complex next to bitter old men like you. Enjoy the future you and your shitty generation have created for your Amebic Dysentary grandchildren, you...

    A mini ES scalper's journal

    I suggest you try the Dow Futures or Forex or maybe Options. I hate the ratios on the emini ES, i use it as an indicator of sorts. The Dow rolls along alot nicer and the stop points are cheaper depending on your capital and strategy. I recommend Forex because its cheaper on your margin...

    The case against college.

    The laughter ensues when one thinks about what constitutes a college degree. Half of your credits are CORE classes which are a repetition of High School. I repeat, HALF OF YOUR CREDITS ARE A REPETITION OF HIGH SCHOOL. Your major credits are 25% of what you pay for. College is a...

    The case against college.

    What I don't understand is, if College degrees are the greatest thing since sliced bread, why did none of the eggheads foresee any of the problems in 05/06 up until now? (with the exception of Nouriel). College is a business model that will quickly fail with the growing expansion of...
