    Toby Crabel

    When? 1990. In 2006 I searched like hell and couldn't find a copy anywhere for a decent price. When this stuff is selling on Amazon for $900, my guess is that all of the library copies are long M.I.A. Think about it, you can check the book out, then claim that you lost it. Basically...

    Are trades in an IRA reported? (EVER?)

    Get your facts straight before you start handing out advice and get yourself a decent accountant! "Guest Article: Who Says You Can't Trade Your IRA on Margin? Conventional wisdom has convinced many traders that they can't trade their individual retirement account on margin or sell stock...

    Are trades in an IRA reported? (EVER?)

    If you set it up properly you will not have to pay anything to IRS, except a small percentage, something like 15% of profits that you generated from your trades that were done on margin. In other words, if you are trading only on cash, IRS gets nothing, however, if you trade w/ borrowed money...

    Andy's Spread Trading Journal

    Looks like E-signal offers Level I for KCBOT and MGE, problem is, I am not too fond of E-signal... I say we lobby GTN, to start offering it too. :) Btw, in your own trading what's a rough percentage of spread trades that you do on KCBOT and MGE?

    Andy's Spread Trading Journal

    Hi Andy! Are you using Trade Navigator to chart spreads? I am looking into (MWU6 – MWZ6) spread that you mentioned in the chart scan, however, it appears that Trade Navigator has an issue w/ the volume for these contracts. I was checking the liquidity for both months, and discovered...

    E-Signal / X-Trader software

    Esignal sucks, pure and simple! I switched away from it back in February b/c there were constant problems w/ the data feed and the tech support could and would not fix it. Esignal is just data whrere as X-trader is an actual order execution platform, hence it does not surprise me that it's...

    Good poker player = good trader?

    Very simple, say you have a setup that works 80% of the time, i.e. e.g. 80% of the time will get you 10 ticks in the ER2. Well, even though the outcome of each individual trade is random in the long run 80% will be winners and 20% lossers, assuming of course that the markets don't chance to...

    Going for prop money

    People, stop with this “I need a mentor B.S.”… “As a man thinks, so he is.” The best mentor is keeping detailed personal records and a diary and to go over this material everyday. You have to learn how to teach yourself and how to learn from your own mistakes if you are to have any...

    What do you call yourself?

    I was playing around with this one myself... But then thought that "risk manager" may imply that you are in the insurance business... And for some reason in my mind I instantly associate this with a silly movie "Along came Poly" and Ben Stiller along with his risk master software... :)...
