ok, I exaggerated a bit when I said I lost most of it in one day, but I took a big loss in one day, and held. so was almost wiped out in 2-3 days. biggest single day loss was 289,000 dollars. had 2 big ones in a row and I quit a few days later. yes each point on the nq equaled 1% of...

just got off work, I work the 3pm to 11 pm at a local grocery. a couple of things: #1. I'm on a payment plan to pay back the 2 million. It starts with a simple commitment, I give half of my paycheck every 2 weeks. It's only a few hundred dollars, but it's the committment to paying back...

wasnt a business, just word of honor

so much for that, wow, i hope thats not indicative of anything.

just got a simulated fill, set the stop to when NDX takes out 1017.3 profit target when NDX makes a new daily high. this is kind of exciting as its the first real time signal i've gotten.

thanks stu for pointing that out although I think it's one of the smaller unintentional lies. I'm more concerned with the intentional ones. :)

hey cool, one of my eod wl scripts just generated a buy signal in this falling market. Good time to test its stuff. Signal is on NDX @ 1019.3 so i'll simulate a buy on the NQ when NDX hits 1020.3 also, I opened an IB acct, oops!! I flamed IB once too for such shitty service when I was...

rickty, I plan on trading the futures again if I do it on my own. Stocks or options if I go prop. My edge is that I will never take on too much risk again, too much risk meaning leverage, or not using stops, or using other peoples money. I think experience is my edge. Also, I will be...

so I've been working for a few months and got about 5k saved up and I'm going to trade again. With my past, should I attempt to become a prop trader? or trade from home again.

thats pretty funny hiaaooo. I still have a humour, and I just have to move on in life. If that happens to me, then it happens. I'm not going to sit around and think about it though.

so my story is out, whether you beleive me or not. But this thread is going to be about getting back up again. I'll post my experiences as I try to get back into the trading game.

i thought of a perverted funny name for a sequel to this thread. Getting Up, And Falling Back Down Again.

care to elaborate?

#1 This is an anonymous board only to those who stay anonymous. I have used my real name here, and the story is real, and the truth about it is out. The people involved know what I did, and have for along time now. #2 My attraction to the market is more academic than material. Its...

good point Mr. Dinky, I've already had that experience when getting a job. Boss: Have you ever stolen anything or lied when money was involved? Me: Uhhhgh.

sorry about the mixup nkhoi and nihaba, and thank you both for your replys. Nkhoi, I might do that, but i haven't got a nickel right now. So I might try to get into a proprietary trader training program instead.

thanks Dedicated1, thats what I have to do is keep it real, in all aspects of life.

I am a chronic liar. Thats my problem Nihaba. Do you mean gambler? I'm a little confused by your posts. You don't fully know my situation, but you are boldly telling me what to do. I certainly listen to all advice and comments but I always act freely. So thanks for your advice.

Nihabasahi, I'd agree with you but theres one part of the story that is still left. I HAVE to pay these people back. I don't feel like the markets, this board, or any place or people have anything to do with my problem. This problem is about me. I'm not an alchoholic. I'm most...

#1. I never said it was in the family. #2. I never said I wasn't being pursued legally. Really though, I deserve to go to prison for it, and I don't see prison as my biggest concern. What I feel in my heart is my big concern, and how I've abused those who trusted me. Because of it, I...
