Yep - you must have been to the wrong one??? (I am still looking for the Baywatch lifeguards to show up at La Jolla Shores!) The weather is back and to San Diego standards and we want to see you soon. Sorry about the cancellation, but I know Terri has credited you for the inconvenience...

Well said Don. BTW - Zone Trading closed the San Diego office and LA closed this week. The former Zone Traders that joined our firm here in San Diego recently told me that they were told one week that they had the choice of moving to Austin or be without a job - so they left. The office...

I think it is a great idea also! Terri is putting something together right now - email me if you have some ideas/suggestions!

We do not have any plans in the future for PHX, on the West Coast, we hold the workshop in our new San Diego office. Besides, who likes that heat when you can have the beach? :D Jonathan

Response is kinda choppy (sorry)- Trading is a business. How do you start a business without adequate capital (At least 10-25k)? The fact that you want to work hard is just not enough and you have to understand that. Everything changes when it is YOUR money on the line, not someone elses or...

Date will be established shortly - confirming speaker availability this week! Kirkland, Tharp, Aly, and some of the top ECHO traders - Due to security concerns at the NYC office on weekends it will mostly be held offsite. Call Terri for pricing discounts details. Terri is planning the...

I can almost guarantee that there are no former Enron executives trading with ECHO - :D Seriously, you must do your own due diligence regarding any firm, ECHO is no different. I can only speak for myself and I feel very comfortable. When it comes to stability... I am happy when I see...

I am sorry for the confusion regarding the dates for the NYC and recent San Diego dates. Terri will have the new dates up shortly. Few problems we encountered with the dates were - April is tax time and we did not think of this in consideration of the speakers or attendees that were coming...

Why not just call the firm?

Don - Can I get a tour T-shirt? That would be awesome! Could I do the opening act? I have found some real winners, did you see the guy on eBay selling his Stock and futures system that made him $300k this year (backtested of course) for the low price of $97.00? I love it...

Didn't you know that Bank of America has the "New Trader Loan Program"? It is offered along side the "Trader Blowout Recovery Loan Program". My favorite is the "GE/HON Arb Loan Special" for those involved in that fiasco who kept putting it on "hoping" it would come in. :D :D :D :D

Hitman - I do not know how you can judge a firms training program without being there, but when I was 22, I guess I had all the answers too. No one states anywhere that a loser can be converted into a winner because of training, but you can increase a traders chances by introducing...

ECHO and Bright both charge a penny a share compared to the 1.1 to 1.4 you stated in your previous post. ECHO and Bright do not have ANY ticket charges whatsoever. ECHO and Bright also both pay out 100% to all their traders FROM DAY ONE. ECHO and Bright charge around 3 cents per share...

Thank you Hitman for the insight... Worldco obviously charges 30-50% more than echotrade's or bright's rates, EXCEPT for the fact that they will take you with very little or no equity. I respect the fact that worldco gives traders who have little or zero cash a chance and they deserve to be...

That is the one that was recommended to me on the apcc.com website... Thanks!

A draw is basically a salary or advance on profits given to a trader... 1. What is a ticket? 2. How much are bullets? 3. Are you allowed overnights? 4. What is the haircut charge? 5. What is the draw?

Any suggestions on a good UPS backup system? I have a Dell Pent 4 machine with three 17 digital flatscreens... Please help me with some suggestions. Thanks in advance!

Candletrader, well put... Hitman, sometimes it is better to go with the gentle touch rather than a strong hand... at least that works with the ladies...:cool: "Here endeth the lesson" - Sean Connery, from The Untouchables

I thought this was Elitetrader.com, not Monster.com... :) I have enjoyed your trading journals, keep it up!

In my situation, I had lived in CA and NV during 2000 - I filed a return in CA - ONLY on income earned during the time in CA. Once I moved to NV - No state income tax. PERIOD. You should talk to a CPA for your particular situation, there is too many experts on this board if you know...
