    If you were assembling a trading room and you only could choose from ET's illustrious

    Just from those that I know: Red_Ink_inc., for his equities and consistency and has proven himself many times in the P&L thread for a long time now, and I have learned a lot from him and respect him, he and I both have very similar ways of trading, I just tackle the bigger & faster equities...

    Help with this Unsettled Funds message.

    First mistake, you are trying to daytrade with scottrade, sure fire way to direct failure at those prices. I'm going to assume you are trading the pennies, another way most people fail a this game. Search ET about prop firms and join one. Simple eh? :D

    Do Et people play music while trading?

    I'm the young hip-hop, trance, club variety. Also like to throw some classic rock sometimes. Kinda reflects my trading style.

    I can't get used to Candlesticks-is that bad?

    I'm a non candlestick user on my day-trading with equities. When I view daily charts (rarely) I do use candlesticks. I DO use Candlesticks when trading demo on Forex. But I overall like OHLC bars the best. My trading is more dependent on the location of top and bottom of the bar...

    Start of year to current date...... are you profitable?

    Hehe, I didn't believe the polls would trigger the "big dogs" replies :p I don't believe I'm mentally ready to increase my size to handle positions that are thousands of shares yet. Good to know a lot of ET'ers are brining in more than 25k though, I just wasn't expecting the polls to...

    Practice daytrading account?

    lol... are you saying the right things to them? At least act like you might be interested in setting up an account later on after you try the software. Call any of these companies up on the phone? Don't be afraid to talk to someone. :)

    letter from Ebay - what's happening with Internet?

    Agreed, sounds like a a war between people that want freedom and privacy, vs. those that want control and safety. Recipe for disaster. In Europe they have very fast connections that are in some places cheaper than here in the USA. Increasing pricing for better internet? How about they...

    What is the best software to use?

    Well, considering most brokers have demo's, it should really be no question. I've demo'd at least 20 equity trading platforms, and at least 10 forex trading platforms. It needs to feel right, and then if you like it, it's time to do research on ET and other resources to check with that...

    What is the best software to use?

    www.strategybuilderfx.com Download their demo of Metatrader, you can use it for as long as you are active with it. I recently opened an account and am still using it, plus it is a great charting package. I'm not affiliated with them in anyway. I just like demo'ing on the Metatrader...

    Scalping.

    Hehe, I know I didn't shave in the fractional years.... in all honesty, I probably knew very little to nothing about the markets back then. I just like asking the better traders on ET about when they were trading in fractions, definately some crazy stories some of the great traders on ET have...

    JMOWERY1987 and understanding credibility on ET.

    Thanks for the advice, I am just going to stop posting as often as I do on ET, that is the best way to solve all the harassment issues.

    JMOWERY1987 and understanding credibility on ET.

    I will admit, I am obsessed with trading, it's the one thing in my life that I love to do, and was lost before I started trading. I've actually been spending less and less time with ET because of recent developments of harassment, but I still post when I can, still like to talk to my friends...

    Scalping.

    Scalping for pennies is very random and complicated, therefore you must have a simple strategy to capitalize on very fast and quick movements. Commissions must be as low as possible. Tape reading, I don't personally use, but others have told me it could help determine entries. Also...

    JMOWERY1987 and understanding credibility on ET.

    hehe, you should see the countless number of posts I've had from Max401, Nana Trader, and the OP talked about and discussed. Oh and harassment issues as well, PM's, instant messages, e-mails of harassment, ever have anyone claim they will kill you before from a poster on ET? Now that was a...

    Sweet, I just noticed this thread! I love it, it's so funny!!! Owell, I guess if I gotta be 19 and have no credibility *or financial credit as well :p* , I might as well have a loser like the OP tell me about it. :D Thanks everyone, I love Elitetrader and I love trading!!! Edit...
