I was just browsing through that thread and I happened to find two more posts from you: You lost 90% of your saving and you were 22 then. Before I saw this, I thought you were just some 35 yr old loser. But you're just 23-24 right now. Granted you may have learned a few things since then. But...

Oh yeah!? How much money have you been making recently? Here's a post made by you from last year: It doesn't sounds like you got the right to judge.

I don't mean to be rude, but if you're still struggling, then why are you giving out advice. That's like a virgin giving out advice on women. wtf!? Anyways, that fear is one of the hardest barrier to overcome. You can't become successful unless you break through it. What I've found is that...

I'm already in over $10k in student loan debt. I'm not using my degree and there's a high chance I will never be able to. The kind of job I can get pays at most $10/hr. It's almost impossible to save anything after subtracting cost of living. Trading is the only chance to dig myself out. No...

Wow! Why would you want to go into business with profit margins that low? I just read the profit margin for the oil industry is 10%.

I'm doing that and it hurts me so much to see money that could've been mine going to to someone else's. ha ha.

Lost $105 on one trade. After commission, the account will be at an even $800 like it has done so many times before. Decided to just quit after that to prevent any revenge trading. Ultimately when you see a setup and enter, it's either gonna work or it's not gonna work. No amount of...

You've been here for only 3 months and you already made 789 posts. wtf!?

No, I'm not. I blew up many times this year just to get to this point. My entire savings is wipe out. I haven't dare taken a look at those reports b/c I don't want to know how much my losses are. I don't want to know until it's tax time. That's true and one of the hardest lesson I had to...

I'm fairly new here. I see these comments all over the place. How do you know this site is mostly full of wanna-be traders and losers?

At this point while I'm still building up my account I do not want to reveal any details on how I trades. That's the funny thing I see on ET. Is that I haven't given much details, yet I see some comments about my trading system as if people are psychics. I am listening to advice and I really do...

Up only $15 on two trades. Managed to scalp $50 on the first trade with a short. Second trade was a short also. Set a tight stop on it and it got hit then reversed immediately. The high was exactly where my stop was placed. I'm fully convinced now that the bots will try to hit your stop if they...

I'm starting this new account at $725. Up $190 on two trades. 26% profit. 1 winner and 1 loser. Loser lost only $30. Good day.

There's no need to do that. I understand many of those concepts already. How do you think it was possible to make 450% in 11 trading days if I didn't know a thing or two? :)

I suspect that test has a virus, so I'm not gonna download it. I've taken online tests before and none has ever ask that you download something. So I'm not sure why this would unless it has a virus.

Why didn't you just ask?

I'm interested in knowing the psychological makeup of trader. Or at the very least the ones that are on Elitetrader. Here's a simple test for left/right brain dominant. There's no questions. All you got to do is look at a picture of a dancer spinning and it'll only take you a minute at most...

Honestly, I don't understand why some of you are concerned about being thank for your advice. I'm a member of a few other forums on the net and often time people are rarely being thanked for their advice. I am thinking this has more to do with a generation issue. My silence is not because I'm...

It was a joke. Thanks for you input. I'll think about them over the weekend.

It really doesn't matter. They all move in the same direction. I get the same signals on all three. I like the YM for the smaller tick size but I dislike it for the low liquidity. But at one contract it doesn't matter. Beside, it wouldn't be right to switch now when I already named my thread...
