    You can't scalp in forex because of the spread which means swing trade at minimum.

    +5. Tough to hear, but not cotton candy BS, and its true.

    five years later (the previous 5), still struggling!

    We'll agree to disagree. Frequency is important. Go to casino they are playing hundreds of simultaneous games which Joe retail could never do so their edge, sometimes small in BJ is multiplied greatly. Even a system with positive expectancy that has low frequency may have great problems.

    An arrogant view of insolvency?

    What if what is done is what the Fed/US gov. did with GM and AIG. They loan the money, print from thin air, shore it up until it bounces back and then take repayment. I have changed my opinion, I think it was a good idea, but as Mark Fisher MBF said US taxpayer should have demanded a 30% equity...

    That an erroneous example and here's why. You and I know the casino can play hundreds of hands at one moment so their frequency will be much higher. No individual trader can do such. And the casino hires ppl to play their money, no emotional attachment. The best a trader could do would be to...

    Then I am not going to give details but here is a freebie. Unless you can determine the larger market structure you might as well toss a coin. Daily not 240 min. Because only then can you guesstimate the likelihood of a trend day which is what you need for buying a pullback.

    Best Prop Trading Firms in Canada

    That sounds to good to be true. 80% and no money risked. I only know of a few people that get that and they have a lot of experience and track record from previous props. In the US, its as high as 90% I believe but you have to put your risk capital up, which is no prop.

    Lindsey Williams will lay a bomb shell tomorrow

    Damn, almost a trifecta of the mentally deranged. I missed that. I listen to Alex occasionally and I warned him about loser guests like Robert Kiosawki.

    Pristine, Worth the $$?

    If it has/had Olllie Velendez associated with it, its a real POS. The more I heard about him the more he should be bedfellows with Lennie D.

    The Economist - Most Liveable Cities 2011

    I have been to Monte Carlo as well. Don't you think that's a bit skewed as you have to be a multi millionaire to live there? Of course you are more likely to be smiling. That would be like saying Thailand, land of smiles, is the happiest, when I know some Thai folks and that is a sales pitch.

    I have started practicing TM again. I don't do nearly as well with other forms of meditation. I have ADHD so forced concentration on something doesn't work well for me. I appreciate the TM doesn't mind in your mind wanders. It's normal and its accepted.

    Fine. IMO you lack objectivity. Alberta is solid because of crude the others not so much. We both know that history will show. You know when prices divert to far from mean they return.

    The Economist - Most Liveable Cities 2011

    Visited Hongcouver, at least that's what my friends call it that live there, really nice and cosmopolitan, but the weather sucks there. Perpetual drizzle just like Seattle. No thanks. For $1 mil I can live in Newport Beach, and taxes will be similar.

    Best state to form a LLC?

    No one can answer this there are way too many variables. Start with states with lower business taxes and work from there. Last time I checked CA has a franchise tax fee of $800 per yer. In CO, fees are $20 per year approx plus 5% flat tax.

    Lindsey Williams will lay a bomb shell tomorrow

    yeah infowars.com, but if you wait Alex will probably post YT videos of the interview later. Listened to part of it, Lindsey says oil to 150-200 and then we open Anwar, and under the Rockies.

    Best Prop Trading Firms in Canada

    A couple of friends I know started at Title in Toronto, still too new to tell. Sterling is a dog compared to a futures DOM, that's for sure. I think they are 50% split with no of their money risked. Seems a bit low from what I have heard, but maybe others can chime in?

    Obama busses in protesters to Wisconsin

    Some of them sure, but the same could be said about police and firefighters for that much.
