I just have to figure out how to get it onto my trading comp, if I don't buy it. My trading computer isn't connected to the internet but to a direct line to the exchange.

Great replies, thank you. Here's the comp I'll probably be running it on....my system info says: Intel core2 quad CPU...2.66GHz 3.25 GB of RAM Runs on XP professional. With this I'd like to record roughly 6-8 hours of market action and my trading per day.....audio not...

any preference between the two ???

Hello, anyone have expirience using camtasia? I would like to use a product to record some of my trading to review later for educational purposes. My drawback to camtasia is there are some reports its a bit resource intensive when using it, and I don't want to bog down my trading computer...

Out of curiosity, what would lead you to assume I don't keep that information about my own trading?

You're hitting on something there. Looking more at what general area's are "buys" vs. "sales" ...as rudimentary as it sounds is a better way to think when your scalping. It helps you decide when its worth it to take heat or not.

It was never really there. The numbers were lies and the returns paid out was just the principal of the new investors.

Thanks for the words of caution but I've been doing this for awhile, I think I'll be ok. :) btw, I didn't ask for help, I wanted to create a dialogue with others like myself. Scalping in this fashion is very different than how most ET'ers trade, there aren't a lot that do it anywhere, and...

I appreciate giving me your number, but I'm curious as to what you'd want to discuss? Do you trade in this fashion as well? You didn't say much about yourself other than to call?

Scaling out is probably the best approach, however in practice it's sometimes more difficult than you'd think. Here's why: moving size like 100 lots is tricky. You need liquidity for a fill, and often you're risking losing a winner if you don't get out when the liquidity lets you. If I'm...

I'll reply in just a bit after the Fed release or the close. Thanks for all the replies. Good luck if anyone else is trading the release, cheers.

I think there are a few others here. I trade futures, often up to 2500 rt's or more, usually looking for small scalping opportunities. I'd like to improve my trading such that I'm not only scalping for small winners but also building a position for a larger (several tick) move. I tend to...

Yeah I know, did he just get a dvd player? Or just get the money to buy 50 dvd's a month? Makes ya wonder. Alternatively, if he's willing to spend money and wants to build a library of movies, why not blue ray? I don't think an intelligent argument exists for the reasoning behind...

Sorry to start a thread over this but I can never figure out the symbol directory or any of that.

Well put. I think Pabst, myself, and whoever he quoted might look at the 'biz a little differently. When you clerk on the floor for locals and get to know that culture, its just different. I don't know how to explain it otherwise. But as mentioned above, it becomes your identity, who you...

THanks. great trading as well. Gotta run I'll post more this evening bernanke in a few. Good luck all.

In sept. I made 54k. Last week (a pretty good week) I made 22k. I scalp futures professionally, I've been doing so for 2 years. I trade in an office on a dedicated line. I am backed trader which means part of those profits go to my backers...former floor traders who made the transition to...

merc's not busting anything either. That was insanity. Pure insanity. Def. some people blew out...I was a heartbeat away from being one of them.

I trade ED's. I was fucking long 80 cars when that happened and made the best sale of my life to only lose 5 gs. I'm still shaking now.

Seriously, anyone thought of this? Where would be a good place to trade if the US goes to such shit we want out. I like to be prepared for all circumstances. Wasn't it Buzzy Schwartz that kept gold bars in a safe in his apartment?
