    I'm sick and tired of work! :)

    Disagree. If you have an aptitude for statistics, and like making decisions, you can succeed in trading but maybe not another business.

    Is Trading Ethical?

    That is completely the wrong answer. About a year ago I had read about 60 books on trading, marked them all up, almost every thread on this and another forum, traded every day at 1am in the morning (I was in Australia -trading US open), took notes on everything, tested everything, and kept...

    Is Trading Ethical?

    Yes - that is the right answer. Another point, is it ethical for your employer to cancel your vacation with your family, or require you to work weekends and until 1am at night like mine does or you lose your job? Is THAT ethical? Are they not being selfish? We have to live in the real...

    IB Customer Service is Poor

    What a loser you are. Business is a two way operation. They are not slaves to you. They provide a low cost operation that does work almost all the time vert very very well in my experience. You pay them for that. They are not going to fix your crap out of hours.

    How much do you need to realistically make it?

    Thank you for your long post. Appreciated. I do not think you are bullshitting. I would doubt though that it is ALWAYS possible to tell a retracement from a reversal. The mkt has SOME random element. Yes it does take focused no fear work. A little hard as working day job 100 hours a week...

    How much do you need to realistically make it?

    Hi Grob With SCT though - staying on the right side of the mkt, how do you know when you have a small retrace, or a reversal. If you see the Aussie dollar a couple of months ago you would see what I mean - downtrend, then retrace that just kept on going way past the 100 day high. You could...

    Jim Rogers: Oil will hit $100

    In my recollection surfer, you have a very limited understanding of how the market works and never make any good calls.

    For those that make 4 or 5 grand a day net

    Do you see any retail arbitrage? I figure there is no way to compete in arbitrage with Phd programmers, very low comm and automation of the firms.

    What is the worst one day loss you ever had?

    There are some big numbers here. How did you all get to the stage where you can lose 100k in a day? Through trading or other professions/businesses?
