    Is this the start of World War III?

    Right on Buddy! Go to downtown Kabul and ask the man on the street if he prefers the Taliban defining his freedom. Everywhere I've been in the world (and I would venture that I've traveled in more countries / places than you have! :p ) people desire freedom. Admittedly, American...

    Is this the start of World War III?

    No, as I remember Gulf War I was the beginning of WWIII. The Russians were going to invade the Middle East, Iraq had one of the biggest and baddest armies in the world, George Bush had announced the "New World Order" and on and on... Cheer, kp

    Very good. I presume then you are taking it in person and not over the phone. After my training I signed up for the PFG simulator and opened an account with Global. I still use the PFG simulator, and I am still at Global. I use the simulator to try out ideas and try to hone my skills...

    Optionetics

    If you are willing to pay $$$ to shorten the learning curve, then post an ad in the Classifieds forum. For half the money you could get a personal tutor who would teach you much more than the 'basic' and 'advanced' courses! My only regret is that I didn't read a thread like this one before I...

    How much are you paying per round trip?

    Let's see how long this list will stay 'virgin' without any of the broker-posters jumping in to tout their rates / service / etc. :-D kp

    Welcome to the fold. :-D I don't want to say anything to dampen your ardor, but there are enough subjective elements in the TI system that things are not as straightforward as they first seem. The reak 'trick' is to know when to take signals and let them pass. That is why I am interested...

    POLL: Should US POWs be treated the same way that the Guantanemo prisoners are?

    If the Iraqis treated American POW's the same as the US treats monkeys down in Cuba, it would be a vast improvement from their current conditions, so I say yes! kp

    J-Trader and TradeStation comparison

    I need some help comparing TradeStation brokerage and J-Trader. I'd like to hear from someone using TradeStation brokerage to trade the e-minis. My experience has been with J-Trader. I found execution to be very fast (.5-2 seconds) with a market order. What type of execution speed might I...

    Papertrading, simulation, education, and progress. (Also, an introduction)

    Yes, obviously one must look at vendors who promise the world with skepticism. I am certain that if I had attended one of these shows early in my trading career, I would have made much better choices in the types of education I chose to invest in. Until I attended the Online Trading Expo, I...

    Emini's for $500 margin?

    When the account falls below $1,000 it is frozen until the balance is brought up to $2,000. I know this for a fact, since once upon a time I had just that sort of thing happen to me! :D Cheer, kp

    Papertrading, simulation, education, and progress. (Also, an introduction)

    Take a serious look at the e-mini futures. You will be analyzing one chart and there is plenty of action for all your needs. Once you are ready to start trading, you will only need $2,000 to open an account. Obviously there are serious risks involved, and make sure you understand them before...

    Hedge 'n Hold

    Yum! :D Now that I think about it, I do remember seeing your post about the ELX chairman. I must confess I don't pay any attention to news. I just assume the market will have already digested the news by the time I hear it, so why worry about it? My only reason for being bullish on ELX...

    Hedge 'n Hold

    My strategy is to hold the stock and puts through to expiration. If, in the meantime, we get a HUGE drop in ELX (like down to around $10), then I would sell the puts, buy more stock and buy the 7.50 puts. On the other hand, if we continue this current uptrend, I will re-hedge (like I did...
