Do what you love to do. If you love being an employee and having bosses, then do it. Don't become a professional, independent trader. If you hate being an employee and hate having bosses telling you what you should do with your time, then become a professional trader, your style, day or swing...

Yikes... European, eh? Really? This stuff is gross and has zero class. I say it's US made. I do very much prefer Louboutin indeed. Personal choice, of course...

No idea. The psychological study of crypto traders is not my field of expertise, actually. I was talking about volatility. Not P&L. And the volatility of the SP500 has lots of inertia, just like an hippopotamus slowly walking its way to take a dive into some muddy river in the great plains of...

Hmm... Yes but you seem to conveniently forget that it took 928 days for the SP500 to rise by 50%. A mere day in the life of a Crypto. Have fun with your turtle ride! :-)

I am not assuming anything, Sig, and I think you seem educated enough to guess it. I was speaking in general. And it is common perception everywhere in the world that the US is not ruled by an intellectual elite, but rather by a rich and powerful one, grossly manipulating its crassly ignorant...

Europe's education system, just like Canada's, is a meritocracy, while the US one is a plutocracy. Hence the relevance of one's country of education.

Ditto Tom :cool:

Hmm... That's probably because I work with educated people most of the time. For them, their country of education is more important than their country of citizenship or their birthplace. If you talk to your local farmer, bus driver, police officer or shopkeeper though, he's gonna ask you where...

Seems it has gotten worse, ultimately, as per the comments I see on forexpeacearmy.com.

I'm just curious why do you assume I'm looking for a pattern? :cool:

I'm just curious why do you assume I'm focused on the country the CEOs of these firms were educated? I just mentionned it, and it is as relevant as their names, their wealth or their age. Well, perhaps I struck an irrational, emotional chord there!

Hmm... I am actually thinking about leaving Canada soon for Gibraltar or Malta (not quite decided between the two yet). I'm tired of big ugly nose governments constently sniffing your bank account to suck up as much tax money as they can. I have my eyes on Lichenstein, Monaco and Andorra, but...

IB, Interactive Brokers? I heard about them too. I will give them a try. My biggest problem with regulation is Canada's IIROC, actually. Best,

I swing trade pretty much anything I can put my eyes on (except futures), unless the minimum lot size or the volatility are too big for me to ride with the capital I have, from physical metals to crypto currencies. I am also doing business with a bunch of brokers (kitco, avatrade, SwissQuote...

Hi everyone, As traders, we take lots of risk with our own capital. That is normal. But what shouldn't be normal is having to deal with a business infested with crooks, hypocrites and deceitful liars. My trading career has been marked by these experiences (amongst others): 1) RefcoFX (USA)...

Hi Pipeguy, I have the same question actually. But I can tell you one thing. Don't go with AvaTrade. I was trading ripple with them on the AvatradeAct platform, and they suddenly removed all cryptos from the platform. Then I wired funds to my MT4 account (which still offers the cryptos) on Dec...

There is really only two trading strategies in any market. Trend Following and Mean Reversal. You either buy a falling market (Mean Reversal) or sell it (Trend Following). There is no best way. Just two strategies, and once a position is taken, if you change the strategy, you lose money. It's as...
