C'mon, I'm 18 and I act more mature than some older fellas on this board. If you feel the need to bother someone, go bug the 10 year olds as you are acting like one.

Here from newbie to newbie. Let me give you how it has gone for me, maybe it will help you, maybe I'm wasting your time, but I suggest you read anyways. I have been trying to trade equties for the whole summer. I'm telling you right now, you will NOT be successful in an attempt at...

I agree with Volente. I was actually looking at the YM today, I saw a lot of support and resistance areas. I estimated with one contract if you are a pretty good trader, you could have made 800 to 1,000 *multiply however many contracts you trade*. I don't think I could have made that...

Thanks for the help, I have thought about reading those books, as I have been trading I have been understand how much more of a mental process it has been, so I'll definately invest in those books when I can. About demo account, I'm going to have to use it for the next 2 or 3 weeks until I...

Thanks, It's been tough, I was very close with my father, and losing him at age 13 was tough, my mom isn't really that "motherly" as I'd like to say since we barely even speak to each other, but I know I am fortunate to have what I have. So many people around here just seem like they will...

Get a mentor, and learn how to trade your own self, if you are using someone else's system without knowing how it works your own, and can't modify it to fit your needs, then you are not a trader IMO, you are just a person who wanted to take the easy route to make money, and I don't have any...

Thanks, but as I have said, I have a mentor that is helping me, he trades YM for a living, and he knows what he is talking about, I have traded equities before, and know what it is I am doing. I fully understand risk vs. reward and have been looking forward to trading futures. I have been...

If I could ask without sounding too intrusive, what everyone averages in points gained *hopefully not lost* trading YM on a day to day basis, or at least a good honest estimate and how long you have traded futures? I have yet to start trading YM, still setting up my futures account, but I...

+80 here from playing FNSR. -5 from EUR/USD in Forex So around 75+ total day here, which I'd definately take any day to be in the black. I'm slowly getting out of Forex, I know when I can't win, and I'm just not ready for Forex as of yet, I'm just messing around with what little I have...

Even though you might take that as a stupid response. I have been looking up things on moving to other countries, and that response is more true than you'd believe.

Thanks for the links :)

Thanks for the link I saw someone say they had gainskeeper, I have ameritrade APEX as well. But does it get complicated if you have multiple brokers. I also had an account at ETrade but they screwed me out of around 700 dollars with an incident and my information is all gone *those...

Is there a very good website for new traders to look up information about taxes for traders? I don't want a government website that has extremely complicated stuff and flat out boring (at least if possible), just a down to earth website that highlights how it all works and maybe goes into...

Dang, can I come in second? :p

Up around $70 on Forex, bringing me back in the black on from my initial investment into my mini account.

Hehe, 1987... don't really remember much about that, I was only 8 months old then. As for 5 minutes, I have been trying quick trading, not scalping, well, maybe it is, but going for 1 or 2 pips from finding short term support and resistance. Lots of times it fails, that is why I'm testing...

I recently purchased Quicken 2006... more suited for Investors, not traders, but it downloads the data from Ameritrade which is the broker I use, but my personal bank doesn't have online banking, so I'm screwed there. I have yet to find a solution for traders. But I am yet to be...

I'm having trouble with FXCM, it really does suck, not to bash on them, but, not looking good. Metatrader, the only problem I'm having with them is I'm having many gaps in data feeds with the 1 and 5 minute charts. I don't know if it is because of demo, but it looks like little blips going...

www.thisweekintech.com Check out episode 19. Talking about Windows Vista and how horrible it really is. Patrick Norton works for PC World and gives insight to the review of the beta next week in PC World. Windows is really done for people, if google comes out with an OS within the next...

Lets get one thing straight. It isn't Windows Longhorn. It is Windows Vista. It looks and sounds like a smell. I say that smell is BS. Google is making their own Operating System anyways. They won't admit it, but they certainly haven't denied it. Microsoft is going down my...
