    My account value reaches $600,000 for the first time; launching incubator hedge fund

    Go buy undervalued condo or two with half your money and rent them out for 10 years then sell em. Convert your "points" to hard assets. Until then they are just "points" in a game that you may or may not forfeit back to the market. Really Relize your gains if that makes any sense. Also, just...

    Arthur Deco Mentors ET Noobs

    Also have considered entering 5 seconds or so before the close of the signal bar but am reluctant to as I think that I will screw up the forward results by disobeying the system rules. Shit gets expensive testing systems live trying new ideas to try to improve. Especially with trend following...

    Arthur Deco Mentors ET Noobs

    Hey Arthur, I have a few questions if you wouldn't mind. What kind of slippage do you get? I have a few backtested systems that are great on paper but live when I wait for the close and enter on the next bar AFTER the signal is confirmed I always get screwed competing for the price ...

    Silver going to $40-$45 in the next month.

    History shows us that the average life of a fiat currency is 40 years. We're on year 40 since the gold standard was abolished in 1971. If you can print Federqal Reserve notes but you can't print silver, gold, oil, agriculture(wheat, soy, corn) then what will go up in nominal value ,anyone...

    if China one day said, “Hey - we’re going to sell all your bonds,”

    Billy Walters - 60 Minutes Segment

    Thanks for this. I like how he bets on the underdog and then last minute bets more on the favorite just to push the bookies around:D Kind of like the whales messing with the order book.

    Bulls and Bears documentary

    thinking "this time it's different" is a mistake. Computers don't have psychological issues but those that create the programs for the computers sure as hell do. Also, evidently from seeing may 6th , computers sell like it's the end of the world just as traders would do. Anything that is traded...

    "Cut your losses short and let your profits run"

    So whats better? 1. Having an average risk reward of 3 to 1 and having a higher win rate 2. 10 to 1 with a lower win rate 3. trailing every stop at each new higher low as the market moves in your favor (letting the winner run) 4. taking an initial position of say three contracts...
