    An Accountant's Journal

    Good luck, it sounds like you got a plan and are going to stick to it. Questions: 1. How do you decide which of the 1 of the 30 to trade? 2.Is there a time restriction (if 3 days pass with out taking profits or getting stopped out you will get out)? 3. Will you only enter one trade a day or...

    80% Return in Forex

    I would want to look into their #'s more. From the returns they showed you they had a drawdown of ~10%, I suspect it could/has been much worse than that. Also ask them how they can guarantee a max drawdown per trade, everyone knows the problem with stoploss orders in an illiquid market, so how...

    Huge Losses

    Ripley, Why do you keep posting these dumbass trades. You alreadly know what you do wrong, so stop (pardon the pun) doing it.:confused: My advice: Whenever you have the inclination to do something do the opposite. Example: Ripley thinks to himself, "now seems like a goodtime to buy,"...

    Clearing codes

    I worked at the CME and depending on the product you traded you could see the clearing codes. I don't think it provided that much of an advantage, but if you saw goldman come in and start buying like crazy, you might try and be on the same side. But if a big player is trying to force some price...

    Exit methods for trend-traders

    Thats not how it works, unless you only use $1000 to trade and if your system shows that it is right 90% of the time I find it very hard to believe that you are trend-following or you just have a very loose veiw on what right means. With those #'s you must be selling out of the money options. If...

    Exit methods for trend-traders

    So are you saying that upon entering your trade a point 1, which to me looks like you should be buying but you get short, you have stastical proof that bottoms are reached at ~10:18am? At point 4 there is no obvious trend, it is still trading right around the opening, 1 bar to the right of...

Anyone with a computer and an internet connection can trade, no licsening or any work. They are working at their dead end job, and suddenly it hits them: "hey I could work from home...
