youll have to excuse me I use REWARD/RISK and not RISK/REWARD, but ya i try to make 3X my risk or i wont bother with the trade. I go live on monday guys. Going to take it very light and stick with 1 contract for now. This volatility is insane so im going to limit my exposure and attempt to...

i dont take a trade unless its 3:1

Im pretty anal about keeping records. Does anyone know if the 5k required by velocity is set in stone or if its flexible. 4k would work better for me.

Spoke with a friend and I have decided to go with Velocity. They were very quick getting my account approved.

thanks everyone for all the advice, crazy market i am about to step into but nothing really changes with the method i use. Having some slight setbacks getting the account open. Alaron is taking forever to give me approval. On my application i put my occupation as student and they want an...

Hey not sure which board would attract the most attention so posting here also. I have sent in the account forms for alaron however they have been very slow to respond and when i spoke with them on the phone they asked for an employer name and address. Currently I am employed as an intern...

Well it looks like this is going to be a headache getting this account opened. Alaron is asking for employer name and address and while i am employed now I do not work during school. I may have to look for another broker if they deny me and are unable to accomodate me. I realize my...

Thanks for the replies. Mark that is a very good point you make and i am going to take some time to learn the SIM. For the first time in my life i am able to devote the entire day to trading. No distractions. I have used various sims all with roughly the same type of results. I am...

Started the paperwork process, decided to go with greenstreet, Alarons Deep discount division. Hoping i atleast get futures trading approval, if not i am going ot have to search for someone to let me on board.

the last time i checked most dips dont fall this far below the 20sma before it starts to bounce. Dips last 3-4 days. This isnt a dip. This is at the very least a correction.

because we all have something in common, we are lazy. A finished product would be great though.

lol cant take constructive criticism so you put me on ignore. too funny

surdo, learn to think outside the box. What if i just want to read some good material and have no idea the subject?

Elite trader is a lot like going to a junk yard with precious diamonds scattered but in that lays the problem. You must sift through the junk to find the diamonds. I am not sure if this has already been done but i think it would be super useful if the members were able to sift through this...

So easy a caveman could do it!

high yield is dead

im suprised Optiontrader coach Phil hasnt stuck his nose in this thread yet. Hes a former lawyer, will mention something to him.

Alright man so i read your post and totally skipped everyone elses comments because they mean shit. I am on the opposite end of the spectrum, I am leaving my university after 3 years and going to community college for the fall just so i stay on my parents health insurance than finishing up at...

Hey man first of all welcome to the markets. I am also on 2+2 but i mostly lurk and very rarely do I post. Poker and trading certainly have many parallels, I am a average poker player i would say +90% ROI after 400 tourneys. I truly believe a sucessful poker player can be sucesful in the market.

I almost would rather not even say, the way my method works given my average loss of X ticks I have 50 bets. So theoretically i can be wrong 50 consecutive times w/o a winner before im knocked out of the game. Sim results were very solid. When I first started out I would treat each day like...
