    Do you stick to your plan ?

    It's funny you should start this thread......I am a newbie day trader with some position trading exp. previous and I am having a reall challenge following my plan when things are boring, no set ups. In fact, yesterday I was so bored, surfing ET and watching Fox News I missed one of my 90%...

    Repetitive conversation!

    A sincere thanks for the reminder for Livermore of one's own self destructive tendencies. I am struggling with that now. I should have been up 3pts in the ES today. Instead I had to fight my way back because I took a couple of I am bored flyer trades and guess what......they were losers! I...

    The reality - from Assistant Secretary of the Treasury in the Reagan administration

    I agree with your post in theory. Think about why that is? Many visa holder IMO come from what Americans would consider third world countries. Now compare the avg American worker to say a Socialist European.....we bust our asses compared to most of them. Germany, Sweden, Finland, etc...

    The best investor of his generation

    Vhehn, Isn't that the way Livermore did things? Sell Strength and Buy Weakness? I wish I would have been at the Vegas expo to meet Franz with his audited statement in hand. My trading buddy said he was the only real deal there. I have actually thought about taking TI's course, but if I...

    Silly question I know but here goes..........I had/have a Dual Head GE Force 6600, but when I went to go to 3-4 monitors I pulled it, and bought a used Matrox 200 4 Head from E bay. Could I have just added another GE Force card? How would I get the pointer/cursor to move accross all 4...

    Dax data / eSignal Data

    You could also use IB's data feed into into say Med Ved Quote tracker or Sierra Charts. I am considering this as E signal is overpriced for what it is IMO. Anyone trying IB's data feed? I am just concerned about using them as a broker. High margin requirements are keeping me on the fence.

    Would the public be warned of Impending Crash in Big Brokers and Banks or just the in

    It is funny you should mention Refco. I was meeting with my broker in Chicago a few weeks back and he said everybody knew Refco was going to implode. Another long time trader in the business told me that you should never trade through a firm that is self clearing, apparently Refco was? I am...

    Best firm for X_Trader

    Have you gone to TT's website and reviewed the list of brokers using X Trader on their website. I don't know if he would tell you, no offense, but Franz Shoar of Traders International uses X Trader and he trades 500 plus contracts per day or so I have been told. Maybe if you ask nice he will...
