30-Sep 97 $1,257.81 $535.69 net transaction costs on the month- not terrible for a first month (i mean it was green) but not enough to cover x-trader or salary... so hopefully we can get a little more aggressive going forwards. i keep telling him he needs to click first and think later to...

if a 30$ once a year tax is enough not to hire someone you must live in china or india

earnings are all to one degree or another tied to our government deficit. if we actually reign that in (which i don't actually think we will accomplish) it will be tremendous pain in the short term... but then again not reigning it in is simply kicking the can down the road and as we've...

i voted down, but i don't think this will be the big dump- this will simply be leg 3 in of the 5 leg sequence imo. we should see a bear market that takes us down to maybe 7300 or so in the dow by next fall, and then we'll bounce up to about 9500 before taking the real plunge to new lows

29-Sep 82 $398.44 still not making enough on the winning days- gonna have to get on him about not getting involved in more positions. he only did 1 position today whereas i did about 12.

i don't really give him advice on each trade to enter, i've already taught him the general strategy- now he has all the rope he needs to hang himself. generally now he just runs a basic plan by me to make sure he's not doing something terribly stupid, but i generally just tell him to do...

i disagree- the problem is that he isn't making enough on his winning days- he'll see 3 opportunities and only act on 1. we all get screwed when the bad trades come because they are available to put on for so long it's hard to avoid them, the key is acting on all of the good ones in between...

29-Sep 78 -$5,312.50 30-Sep 154 $1,723.56 dates still off but i'm just cut / pasting still- too bad for that fy auction, it stole half the day with that ensuing unrelenting rally in the zf- through the end of the month i'll post $ amounts but then starting next month i'll just post...

anyone else thinking what i'm thinking? "government leeches bitching because they aren't getting enough O-?"

x trader pro

i think the raising of the margin req's was far more important than the silver bullion that was found in the sunken ship silver is a safer store of value than us dollars (for the next 20 years is my horizon) because we print more money every single day and we only find more silver every once...

xtrader just futures, but the entire curve

well that was yesterday, i'm not sure why the date is wrong i just copy / pasted from what he sent me. he also lost money today (as did i) from the zb just being crazy weak relative to everything else and not retracing the dislocation at all. these days w/big one way moves w/out much retrace...

15-Sep 209 $820.31 28-Sep 106 -$3,398.44 i was on vacation so he had to wait to trade til i got back.

no chance we are bottoming out now- i call shenanigans

i agree with the theory of africa undercutting the current emerging markets in the decades to come- i do fear though that i won't live long enough for america to cycle back to the top.

it's the first of the epic dominoes about to fall which ultimately topples all fiat currencies around the world.

i'm backing him so i get a share of his profits- he's a longtime friend of mine who i actually started training in may.
