    Trading fulltime retail with $50k

    100% agree. It sickens me how Chase has changed even though I've only been there for 16 months. Fast food model was a perfect analogy. Definitely one of the reasons why I left so quickly. And yes, I am demoing software. Demoing Sterling starting Tuesday :)

    Trading fulltime retail with $50k

    I live w/ my parents for now. So i dont have to worry about income. In retail banking, good luck making good money. As a personal banker, its a crap job w/ barely any room to move up. Granted I could be a manager, but even they don't make 100k unless they get a good bonus.

    Trading fulltime retail with $50k

    So i Just took a 2 week vacation from work, and plan on quitting when I get back. I work for a bank, so there's no 2 week notice. Termination is right away. Trading small right now, but at least I can actually open up a trading platform, and keep 4 charts up at once rather than being...

    Help me refine my strategies' risk/reward

    Anek, thank you for the tip. I've studied price action, studied my strategy, and I've realized its too restricting. I've kept parts of my strategy but no longer consider it a 'strategy'. They are only entries that I will add to my arsenal that I feel have an edge. In terms of risk /...

    12,500 was strong support

    I think the market rallies next week as people hope the stimulus package will work, and going into the rate cuts. B/c of my sentiments, I'm immediately gonna go out and buy puts on Monday. Fading one's predictions can be quite profitable. lol

    Trading fulltime retail with $50k

    I think I've taken in everybody's advice quite well with an open mind and I appreciate everything that people have said to me. Some people, like yourself, it seems u skimmed through my post rather than reading and feel the nerve to jump to conclusions and comment. A 'simple-minded 5 minute...

    Already pumping the futures higher

    can you please stop posting threads in the trading area. Nobody cares about your predictions, which are wrong most of the time anyway.

    Trading fulltime retail with $50k

    Truthfully, I'm sick and tired of everybody on this site telling I'm going to fail or I'm going to blow up my account. Everybody on this site is so damn negative. Granted, I understand why. 90% of traders fail. But also, 80% of the world population is filled w/ idiots anyway. The 90%...

    Trading fulltime retail with $50k

    I disagree. I will not lose $50k trading. No way in hell. You must not have had a clue what you were doing. I've blown up a $10k swing trading account before. But I dont intend on doing that daytrading. My system works too well for that. At worst I'll be a net loser, but not to the...
