You can buy a used quad card, Matrox GMS 2000 off of E Bay for about $120 plus shipping. Myself and 2 trading friends use them with no problems.

I don't belive that is correct. If you trade under an LLC or IBC then you are an employee of the LLC or IBC, you aren't self employed. I could be wrong though. This requires sound legal advice though.

Nonam, I would think, could be wrong, that if I am trading with a foreign IBC through a US broker they wouldn't report to the IRS since I am foreign entity. Agree or disagree. I did read that they may withold taxes and I would have to apply for a refund though.

For an investment of approx. $250,000 USD you can get a perm resident and I believe a dual passport in Panama. Say you buy a beautiful flat overlooking the ocean for about $300k USD, there's your investment.Panama is nice, reasonably priced, unlike Costa Rica, and first rate high speed internet...

If I could add some insight, hopefully, to this thread I will go a bit off topic. I believe trading options on futures has to be one of the most rigged/shady methods of trading. A few years back I but puts on crude oil before the Iraq war and they went from face value $2k to $10k within a few...

It is a bit of a paradox, that is having lots of money in a poor country when you consider that list mentions Sweden which is one of the highest taxed countries in the world. I do understand though as I have studied and discussed it with my European friends. In Sweden there are less financial...

Roncer, I believe it is 80k per person,160k per couple.

Thanks again Mark, for this thread. I remembered you driving theme in this thread. Candles are a secondary form of interpretation to price action. On C3 there was confirmation that price was moving up in conjunction with the the candlestick set up. Best of trades to everyone next week. Dan

I say it's C3 am I right Mark?

Check out sovereignsociety.com or escapeartist.com. I am not affiliated with either, but they both specialize in expatriate offshore issues. Regarding the hedge fund specifically, I don't know. I have just looked into offshore for some time and these are best two and appear to be the most...

Great thread, I am frugal and proud of it. Being frugal whilst making good money in telecom sales has allowed me to work on my dream/goal of being a succesful day trader. I have been studying working hard 10-15 hours a day and it is really starting to come together. More Americans need to...

Interesting thread, subscribing.

It's funny you should mention this as I am re-wroking my trading plan and it is written. You lack discipline and are looking for excitement. As I have posted before trading should be boring not exciting as it would be for a professional card counter. They don't gamble and either should we...

Good off topic discussion. I will help guide it back on topic of the thread. If you trade with an IBC, say on a boat, with a US based broker, do they withhold any taxes? My thinking is you are exempt because you are a foreign based IBC. Does it matter if the 2 countries have a tax treaty? Can...

Jayford, that is good to know. Good rate too.

A couple of more basic questions if I could ask. What is the tick value of Nikkei 225 on Singapore exchange? I went to the website about a month ago, hard to find, and couldn't get alot of info. For those of you that may use IB with Sierra Charts can you tell me the right symbol, I have...

Bolter thanks for the reply, great thread on Market Profile I am interesting in learning MP, I know it will take time, but be worth it

I would like to know of a good international broker too. I would say if you are trading futures you could look at daytradeaustria.com, I don't have a need to call the just yet. Small firm compared to IB. Or Thales Securities out of Panama, but their commissions seem expensive to me. Not...

Do any of you nice folks know when the Nikkei 225 opens on in Singapore? I believe it is 6:45 EST? Thanks in advance. Dan

My trading buddy has used it for over a year, he likes it. I think the name and ad is very cheesy. He has made money with it and had some losing trades too. I believe overall, he is net positive with the service. Peter apparently subscribes to many services and uses his own ability to find plays...
