Open an account with IB take advantage of their trading simulator ONLY. btw it is not limited to a 3 month trial as most other brokers do (from my experience). That will be your best trainer. it will tie up $2000 and cost $10/month. Leave the initial opening funds to draw interest...

I'm not an expert on jesse but what I do know was that I liked him. He was and is the world's greatest trader in my view. However the greeks would have called him a tragic hero, perfection tainted by human nature. I respect him but I sure as heck would not want to emulate him, it's just...

That's a nice post but you had to ignore my last line in order to make your point. my comments were directed towards what is often called "the wealth effect".

So what! just chalk it up as a big liberal anti-poverty handout program to the middle east.

LOL, yeah right!

No offense,but I find it amusing that the general public perceives it as in an obvious uptrend. btw when did gold ever reach 4 digit prices in dollars?

Well not with a straight face. Yes the deflation of computer and consumer electronics prices has been devastating . Boy I sure lament deciding not to buy the $700 dvd player and getting the 35$ one last year. Think about it a little. As long as money is printed on paper the only things...

I don't get the recent popularity/hype of gold. Unless one has completed his wealth accumulation phase and is attempting to hedge the preservation of that wealth I think most purchasers of gold the next 3-4 yrs will be big losers. Once the hype reaches a frenzied pace the inevitable...
