I like the simplicity of your strategies, but sounds like your risk/reward is probably around 1 to 1. So, how about it? Have you made money doing this?

For any one who is concerned about security, they are very happy about the token. I just keep mine next to my trading computer.

I'm in a towel, I haven't showered, or brushed my teeth. But shit, that's the nice thing about working at home.

Well you seem to love them, trade metal. You probably have a small account? I don't mean that to offend, but I think you mentioned you liked the low minimum to open. If you only have a few thousand bucks, then it wouldn't be such a big deal if you had all your money stolen anyway. All of the...

I don't understand why people are always complaining about the spread either. I always let the market come to me and get filled with zero spread. Once I get filled I could close the position out at the exact same price if I wanted to. If I do take the market price, then I take it just as it's...

You get what you pay for. Think or swim is free, but they often freeze up. I would never use them to put on trades. IB is cheaper, faster, and dependable. You will generally get better fills with IB as well.

Fraudsters can be very clever people.

Just watch out for the climax of these patterns, it can get messy.

With the ES your break even will often be played with. Your risk should be small to begin with, and your target should be set in place, so I always promise to either take the stop or the target, no compromise. However, if the market begins to trend in my direction, I will add more and put a...

Sounds like what I feared may be true, they're culling all the old time users who use the charts but don't trade through them.

Same pattern can be found on Asian exchanges, but they're usually smaller.

Anyone else out there having troubles? It won't accept my password and username.

They have wonderful walk through videos. The problem with the OP here is his attitude. IB is for professional users, it's not a user friendly, call you on the phone, walk you through everything brokerage. They have brokerages for that, Scottrade, schwab, etc... I think the OP should...

So, after 3 months of trading, how much have you lost so far?

What ever bank is used, what ever regulatory authority backs them, etc.... none of these institutions will help again purposeful fraud. In other words, if he frauds you out of your money, you have no help short of the police catching him and the money. Stick with some one safe.

This has been a joy to watch, and hopefully education for newbies on two fronts. 1. I hope this helps them to spot a fraud. 2. This market crap guy has been a great example of what not to do. I tried to tell him before he started that if he day traded with a negative risk/...

I place trades with IB for 1 dollar sometimes. Besides the fact that it would be completely impossible for you to do it, names do mean a lot as well. Some people don't know that SIPC does not help you if your broker has purposefully stolen your money. They do not cover fraud cases at...

Here on Elite trader we don't go to things like job interviews. We trade for a living. Well, at least a couple do.

Great signal yesterday. Even though it actually was a huge loss, I played it using my own management, per your advice, and some how managed to make 10,000 points of the trade. The secret to these signals is: don't follow them. They're shit. Just randomly buy or sell and you'll do...

I guess you haven't been reading the news. VA benefits are on the attack, and police are being let go left and right.
