    Traders of today...

    Ain't it amazin' how technology changes one's view? Just a few short 100 years ago, most folks were sitting in the dark without electricity and now we "almost demand" it to work and feel entitled to it! Point is, things change- move on, adapt and get better! Just a few hundred years...

    Margin Debt Avalanche

    some SEC people should go to jail for PDT (i'm only half joking)

    IB was very flexible on the PDT. I have in many occasions entered two positions with only one day trade left and stopped out but did not have my account frozen. Instead, I only waited five days until a three new trades were available. I have not traded stocks for about six months now, only...

    I suppose it would have been better not to offer any assitance on your journey! May you trade well.

    I trade 1 ES

    My point is trade what the market is giving you and not what you think it should do!

    I trade 1 ES

    I quit reading after about 50 posts or so and I do not know if anyone has said this, but it is one thing I learned ealry: NEVER TRADE WITH A BIAS. I wish you the best.

    prospect theory

    I am very simple guy with simple thoughts when it pertains to trading (at least try to be.) I have been studying and courting trading since 1999, so still very new to the markets. Since the beginning of my study, I have been told emotions are four letter words in trading and after seeing this...

    Teaching a teenager to trade

    Teaching a teenager to trade

    My four year old will get on my lap in the morning at the open and watch a few charts with me. I ask him what he thinks one will do- will it go up or will it go down? He is batting about .600.
