Aren't you glad you got in at 49? You did get in at 49 didn't you? Just kidding but I am eyeing the 70 as well. I think the US markets will pullback and if the ewz shows some relative strengh like it's been showing and holds around the area of 67-70 it might break it.

For 30k it better print future prices as well.

Ouch, you hurt my feelins now. Tape reading is an evolving art and I still find it very profitable. These prints could just be someone matching an order on the floor. I see these prints all the time and it most cases I don't care about them. Sometimes people think these big prints could be an...

Don't worry about those guys at trader's monthly. Your background is fine but with your enthusiasm and confidence you are not getting too far at this. You have time and money to be successful but with this go-no-go attitute you are starting well behind the pack. Whatever you decide to do...

Cash, perhaps you are entering trades without knowing your risk which makes you nervous and hesitant. If you know where to get out, then you know how much you will lose if the trade goes bad. You must have that stop number in your mind, no around this level or around that level, just one...

It's rare to see a day where the Brazilian stockmarket closes up +2% and its currency loses value against the USD. Why? Because if such country is open to foreign investors, they will have to buy the country's currency to invest there hence influencing the country's exch rate. It's a pretty sad...

You're still a rookie but make the switch immediately. You've got to get training within your prop shop. You might want to ask your prop shop (not the sub-llcs you are probably under) if they have a good group with mentorship else PM me with your contact.

Whatever you use, you will be fine but go with the lowest ping time connection if and only if it's the most reliable connection. I am around 200ms scalping from Brazil. My order hops around some 15 servers till NY so don't put too much energy thinking about these small details. Most trading...

NY_HOOD, are you still not enjoying this volatility??? It's been sweet man.

I am not implying anything but I don't like reading blogs where the author is not showing his/her equity curve.

I was hoping for this day to come...shorting anytime I want is a major plus for a scalper, stocks now flow much more naturally than before. My only concern is with commissions because tons of traders aren~t using ercos, and products to short so prop firms are probably losing big on commish...

One setup I like a lot is the ascending/descending triangle with size. Say there is a 20k offer sitting at 79.00, stock makes a shy attempt and touches it, goes down 10c, does another attempt but goes down say 5c, then things get tight around the size and the buyer who's been buying from all...

Trade light size, gain confidence but don't stop because the volatility might continue for days or weeks. I am usually a scalper with tight stops and been trading lighter size to be able to soften my stops.

A couple more... 1. IF A TRADER DOES NOT UNDERSTAND WHAT HAPPENS TO HIM PSYCHOLOGICALLY WHILE IN A TRADE, HE IS DOOMED TO LOSE UNTIL HE DOES OR HE RUNS OUT OF MONEY. 2. THE MARKET PAYS YOU TO BE DISCIPLINED. 3. BE DISCIPLINED EVERY DAY, EVERY TRADE AND THE MARKET WILL REWARD YOU. 4. ALWAYS...

Looks pretty strong so far. Just curious if the new currency speculation policy and the lack of substantial dollar infusion this month may cause it to stall. Regardless it should be a test to see who's driving this market higher...foreigners/locals/oil/all the above.

Did you give it your very best shot at it? Three years full-time of it? What did you trade and how did it happen? Post your issues here and maybe you find some additional enlightment to continue your pursuit.

Why don't you first start by taking some fine advices given to you on previous threads? Maybe then a good mentor will notice that you are willing to change. Your reasoning is so far off it is hilarious. And by the way stop saying you've blown your account once again because you are on a...

Sweet project. Please keep us all posted and let us know your web site so that we can track your progress and donate. What's the name of the charity you are helping?

Hey Tim, It's nice to see a star here once in a while. Good work with your trading and book. I see you are new to this site and I think you will find it soon that it's useless to keep answering to some angry posters here but don't get a bad impression about ET and please keep checking back...
