    They are no different... Limit order = my price OR BETTER right now; STOP limit order = "support broken" ---> "my price or better"; Don't blame them...

    Is fully automated trading a fantasy? Your opinions here

    booking, I don't need to back anything up to you. This thread is a question of whether it's possible or not. It's not a primer on proper system development. Personally, I couldn't care less if any of your banks use automation for speculative trading. That is meaningless. Many professional and...

    Is fully automated trading a fantasy? Your opinions here

    Many people hate the idea of automation working at all. "My mentor told me it doesn't work" is such a waste of time. People that spout nonsense like this because it fits their agenda should not be trusted. I'll say it again, there are many successful traders and managers using fully...

    Is fully automated trading a fantasy? Your opinions here

    It is not necessary to scale into infinity. One need only add markets and new systems to trade more money. It is certainly possible to trade fully automated over many markets and systems and earn fantastic returns, better than Wall Street. 20% plus per month? As was mentioned above, people...

    It is quite possible to earn a substantial living trading automated systems. That is not to say there are great ones for sale. However, I have seen publicly available systems that make money in real-time. Assuming it's impossible is simply naive. Some system developers do not have the capital...

    Tradestation

    Tradestation provides forex trading just not automated forex trading... Also, please do not leave for the day and leave your strategies running unsupervised. I have seen no more rapid way to pain, aggravation, and losses in the world. DO NOT DO THIS. It's okay as a brokerage, not great...

    What to tell my neighbors about my trading career.

    Why is everyone so embarassed about making a great living trading? That is something to be proud of! They will only be jealous that you are able to take money out of the markets and they are not. If someone has a problem with trading for a living, then it's their problem. And if they want you...

    Taking 76K to 500K by Year End

    Best of luck to you, and I assume the 76k is peanuts to you based on the amount of risk you're taking. I look forward to following your journal!

    Since When Is a 11.5% Drop in Profits Good News?

    It has nothing to do with the actual number, it's numbers vs. forecasts and then guidance.
