    How to convince wife to let me trade full time?

    +1 That is so true-the 25k you were pulling your emotions were different cause you probably didnt really need it--if you made it fine if you didnt you still had food on the table. When you start the day thinking you HAVE to make $300 you ll be a different puppy-take taht into consideration

    Trading breakouts

    just a hint here cause i don't like to divulge specifics of a strategy--go back and check breakouts and see how many went below the breakout day's lowprice once they brokeout ? Case in point BDK see if it goes below 72

    Trading breakouts

    to OP good strategy is to take overall market into consideration, even though Breakouts are occuring now-look at BIDU PSA BDK and some on charts I posted, this is after the overall market has run up quite a bit so increased chance of false breakout or breakout failure. Sometimes it might seem...

    rimm active pre-market

    It's all random but regular hours trading with more participants is a "truer " reflection than Pre market or after market. But Makring premarket highs or lows is very useful when the market opens up

    Average daily profit with $50K account?

    Well put -I think undercapitalization is a great part in trading failure--once your account is over 150,000 and you been consistent to some degree its much easier to extract your living expenses and put some towards growth. But making a 50,000 account grow is much harder if you are taking out...

    I didnt want to berate you but like i said earlier shorting 20 day breakout is inviting trouble-sure you can make money shorting for .20 contra trend moves (I did the same earlier in my career) but develop a methodology to catch the trend --you'll make money easily and more of it. It's your...
