    Is it possible to reduce risk to zero?

    the problem with your question is that you are assuming that: 1. after you get into the trade the price will move in your favor 2. even if it does, that you will get a good fill on your stop-loss so my answer to your question is NO based on your assumptions.

    Why you should not listen to NEWS

    I'm not an analyst, I'm a trader. I read the tape and look at market action to tell me what's going on.

    NYSE or NASDAQ?

    NYSE only. I think there are more inefficiencies with the specialists system. I'm a tape reader, it's a heck or a lot easier to figure out what is going on with 1 specialist than 20 market makers and black box programs. Just my thought. rjv

    Market vs. Limit Orders on Stocks

    I use either NX to get in or market. There are many reasons why you would use a mkt order. To list a few: 1. when you are trading more than a 1000 shs and there is a bid/offer to hit i nx 1000 and go mkt 1000 or 2000 shs. 2. mkt orders have priority over limit orders, this is huge. 3...

    TheOpenFund L.P - Anyone ever heard of them?

    my main problem with this ad is after they train you and you are making sick cash they don't care if you leave. "After that, you decide to trade your funds with our accounts or go on your own"

    NYSE rates rising on 8/1/2006?

    "Transaction fees on NYSE-listed equities will be based on a fixed rate of 0.00025 per share rather than the current variable fee schedule." it sounds like they are just changing their pricing, not increasing.

    What's your Strategy?

    I wanted to get an idea from successful (likes define success by making at least 6 figures/yr.) traders what your main trading strategy (i.e. technical analysis, momentum, scalping, event driven/news, etc..) is and what product(s) you trade? I'll kick it off. I trade only listed equities...
