LOL! :p GO inandlong! Take no BS from BS'ers! :cool: ~Scientist

Fundamentally agree with Fast_Trader. Same thing here. Multiple monitors I only use to show off. Looks nice in my office. We are both driving flash silver sports cars, too. I guess we're style-oriented people. I like my office to be stylish. It's also representative for my businesses...

Looks like I gotta put in a hard word here again... Hey Folks, Wake up! So many ppl here with so many monitors... 8, 12, 14...? And less isn't appropriate? :confused: I traded at a different place recently, with CRT's, two one of them burnt, I was left to trade with my old 15"TFT monitor...

... OK. Where shall I start? First, at the risk of being frowned upon, I must again swing the warning finger... 1. Yes, you must be prepared for failure. 2. No, you shouldn't prepare for failure. Does this make any sense? Well, my point is that you should have a backup plan before...

Definitely not eMini's for beginners! I mean at, what? 1,250 times the tick size of stocks??? I would argue with that 100-lot recommendation. With penny-per share pricing as we can get it nowadays, there is no reason whatsoever not to trade 10-lots over small order execution. Once you're...

It's so good to remind us that it's all about "SUPER_EGO-gratification". We so wouldn't have figured that without your hint. Mr. Vagina, if you had any idea how much I wished you didn't have those nine lives... Makes you the stickiest spam-pussy on ET for sure... I sure WON'T TRY any of...

It is usually the same in Australia, around 600-950 ms (probably the same everywhere). It definitely doesn't work for scalping, where ppl say that even a 56k connection is too slow. After all, you need an edge, not a (possible) un-edge. Besides, the upstream / request time tends to be a...

All this, and particularly the $99 a month bit sounds almost like an april fool's joke! Two-way Sat costs a lot more more here in Australia. I mean you can't even get 'decent' broadband for that. And please, folks, don't forget that satellite transmission is not suitable for scalping - Due to...

Dear Fellow Trading Brethren, I wrote a post recently regarding global exchange trading, namely the ES. Ever since, I got many questions on the subject. I thought it would be a good opportunity to start a thread on the subject of GLOBEX trading in today's markets - What it's like, who does...

Yes you can post a direct link no worries :) ~Scientist

If you realized that over 90% of the working population still believe this crap, you wouldn't be laughing so loud :( ~Scientist

Yeah no false modesty here now that would be just inappropriate. Are you considering any mentorship programs? :p ~Scientist

As always, you are damn right indahook... "Illogical Overextension" is actually what I meant. I meant "when it looks logically overextended". But yeah. I meant when it looks overextended for no logical reasons. Or logically. Or logically or not... Umm... :confused: Gee this is a sticky...

I think only professionals are aware that CASH is also the most dangerous position - Since it has the power to jump in from the sidelines anytime to change the flow of the market! Many amateur traders tend to think just in term of buyers and sellers. In reality, they're the least threatening...

Hey Girlpower! As always, you make me envy you deeply... Not only that you know how to scalp with a 90-95% hitrate, but on top of that I'd love to be in your position to just say "I'm bored. Let's create some action spikes!"... :D What RU flippin' doin' it on the ES, Natalie? 250-lots...

DAY TRADING??? You must be mad! That's not a profession, that's just gambling!!! If you even touch the markets, then do it properly, by looking at "investing" in fundamentally valuable growth-stocks that look like they might maybe be worth more in 10 years, plus pay you a juicy 0.0001032%...

IMHO, a trader CANNOT be accomplished until he realizes and understands the fundamental reasons behind this! "Feels like the entire market is watching ..." is in fact precisely what happens! This is caused by pro's that literally create this situation to appeal to your emotions until you...

Gross, but not necessarily net 3pts, my friend :( All figures are, of course, gross and not with commissions. Everything looks a little different then. That's why I'm considering buying a seat on the CME (~350K) so I can get pro rates. However, the benefits of scalping are the extremely...

Go Ramoutar, GO! You're just too damn right. :cool: ~Scientist

Man you're in the emotion-hole. I doesn't matter how good your systems are. You must get back to standard, follow iron discipline and focus on getting rid of your emotions. If emotions are still there, trade less or don't trade at all. Take some time off. Go on a holiday for 3-6 days...
