Point a) you cant be 10 times smarter then me, may be X2 maximum X3 times. Point b) if you are so smart and you are working for $500 a month, that automatically disqalifies you from being smart.

Which good Asian e-mini like Futures are out there? I mean the ones with liquidity, good point daily range and not too heavy of a margin requirement. I find that US and European markets are pretty much dead between when I come from work and go to sleep. I am in New York.

I guess it is luck, because I placed my limit order for 9050 just 20 seconds before the floor fell through to 8474. I got filled at 9050. Is that luck? :cool:

I see the subtle difference. But as long as it is allowed who cares. All I want to do is trade, trade and trade some more.

How can it be? I thought IRA accounts cannot be margin.

Reasons: 1) Good looking and NICE girls 2) Lower cost of living 3) I am Russian and frankly life in America is very booooring, people are superficial and stuck up 4) New York is by far more advanced place in America as far as social life and opportunities go, but still it is not my style of...

The Russians must have seen that you are a foreigner with lots of cash and shook you out hard. You dont even pay this much in US.

I trade futures through mobile trader. Once you click on Bid or Ask price, you get to create order page, you will be presented with a Modify link before Transmit. When you Modify you can change Buy/Sell, Size, Limit Price, Type(LMT/MKT), DAY/GTC. Dont worry. They would not release a system...

Let's see: 1) I'd rather be a rat that has figured out the maze and milks it day in and day out, than the herd of rams that rushes to work every morming and then back home in the afternoon. 2) If financial analysts knew anything they would not be working, but be rich and retired. If a business...

ES used to have much wider ranges as late as march. But now it is has a very timid and unpredictable performance. So I am not making as many points as I used to. The same could be said about other contracts. I can't wait for volatility to increase again.

I am looking to move to Moscow, Russia from New York. Does anyone know of any US firms with offices there hiring IT people? I also want to know if any one is trading from Moscow, Russia. How is internet situation there, how much it costs. I want to work and supplement my salary by trading. I...

So sinking 80K into a bulshit education is valuable and not risky? I mean what do they teach you in Buisness School? Save some money, buy the text books, read them on your own and you will know all about finance and economics they will teach you for 80K. Business School is for connections and...

I personally started out with 1 contract, then got bolder went up to 2. Then when I got a little burned (about 1.5K for 2 trades), I stopped trading and just paper traded, and then resumed with 1 contract. The point I am making, you should trade with as many contracts as you feel comfortable at...

Why do you care, since you will pay this fee whoever you trade through. It is charged when you sell your stock. I believe it is about 1/15000 of the sale amount. Will this stop you from trading? :p

If you can turn the same type of profit, why not start trading for yourself with your real money. This will give you some income, while you are looking for internship, and experience. And by the way, I would not waste money on MBA. You could take the money that you pay for this so called...

Should not be so hard if you are willing to take a risk and enter a position everytime you think you know where the ES will move and have about 100K in your account.

I personally feel addicted to trading. Cant live without watching market action and placing trades. Weekends and holidays depress me.

I papertraded when I was 21 for a year. Then opened an account with 5k. Traded about a half a year, made some profit, but not enough to make a living off of it. Went to work for about 3,5 years. Then opened a new account with lots more cash. Now I am both working and trading. I will continue to...

I am thinking of getting slightly drunk while trading. This way I will be more relaxed and not think that much. My problem is I put in the right orders and then when the price gets close to it, I cancel it because I freak out that market will sharply move past it, etc. The drawback of this...
