    Anyone here ever hear of a guy using the name Grumpee?

    And how do you know she actually trades? Because she says so? The time I was in there I would say she doesn't trade, as she was very wishy washy on calling an entry until after it was working. She would say "were looking long at 49.5 or so", and then if it kept going against that number she...

    Butt Monkey telemarketers and silver

    Is ok if I come out to New York with a couple friends and we beat the hell out of the little useless butt monkeys that call trying to sell me silver, gold, etc. They use the private cover for caller Id, and then ramble. I set the phone down for 1 minute and could hear the clown asking me...

    Bright trading and any thoughts

    I knew things would come unhinged eventually. Oh well, lasted longer than I thought it would. I looked at Echo and as far as I can tell they don't have a training program. The website mentions training, but then says they don't have formal training, so I can't compare that to what the Brights...

    Bright trading and any thoughts

    From what I gathered the fees other than the training are negotiable. And if you are all ready trading and can show them volume your commissions will be adjusted to reflect it, but I maybe wrong on that. I would be curious to know if there is a fee to remote traders? Another question that popped...

    If I go with retail...any words on SogoTrade?

    Will have to call and check, as it doesn't mention any platform fees.

    If I go with retail...any words on SogoTrade?

    I'm leaning towards going the licensed route, but happened to see this Sogotrade on the Genesis website. The commissions seem very low if I'm reading it correctly, but I am curious what you give up to get the low rates? They are showing $1.50/trade + $10 month fee, or $3 a trade no fee for...

    Bright trading and any thoughts

    Don, Forgive my ignorance here, but when you say it is a pass thru for you does that mean there is no additional charge for the data coming through Redi? Or would I still be paying the professional rates to the equity exchanges for the data?

    Bright trading and any thoughts

    Just looked at data fees for "prefessional" traders, what the heck is the story? CME?CBOT charge the same for data, pro or not. Why such a huge jump for data on the equity exchanges?

    Horrible experience:IB cost me $50,000 this morning

    If you are trading that kind of size I thought IB had a professional side for you to use? You have to contact them, but I thought they had a side that works with groups doing that kind of size. Maybe it wouldn't have mattered, but possibly something to look into.

    Ever Blow Up Your Account?

    I let $75000 go to $10000 or so. Before I started trading for myself I bought 2 commodity systems, R&W Technical( Possibly the 1st to get nailed big by the CFTC), and Trend Reflection. Broker had me convinced that they would come back after going into an immediate drawdown, and only once seeing...

    Ever Blow Up Your Account?

    Lenny Dykstra....lol.. I was just reading about his latest scam. He's looking to get Professional atheletes to toss $3 million his way and then he will guarantee them $400,000 /year for life when they retire. His firm will take $500,000 off the top of that $3 mill. and then there will be yearly...

    Bright trading and any thoughts

    Thank you one and all for the comments. I'm in a state of shock at the civility of the comments! I had to double check it wasn't a spoofed URL. If anyone has a recent experience with their 3 day or 2-4 week training programs I'd love to hear about that also. Again pm if you prefer. Thanks again!

    Bright trading and any thoughts

    I guess I know better than to ask, but could this thread go without the flaming and give honest thoughts if someone is with Bright? The reviews for Bright are 2 years old, and I was looking for input on their training program and the firm itself. Feel free to pm if you don't want to post here...

    Anyone here ever hear of a guy using the name Grumpee?

    I'm inclined to agree. I sat in a 2 day free trial the other week and I didn't hear Grumpee make one call that was hit. Lavender was shaky in the calls at best. It was one of those where the call is "I' looking to go short here" but when it gets there the trade is actually a little further up...

    Every so often...CNBC

    OK, I know CNBC is a pile, but every so often something pretty funny happens. I got a huge laugh out of Mellisa Francis calling one of their reporters(male) a woman. He was saying how he bought some eye cream for $250 which was 70% off the normal price. She looks at him and says "well I guess...

    Ninja and Trading Technologies

    Anyone else here using Ninja with the TT feed? I've been having problems since I did the upgrade for the CME/CBOT combination. Today it fired off 36 trades on its own...maybe. They show as executed but as of yet the broker says they don't show in their system or on Globex. I'll believe after I...

    Bruce Gould

    WHo the heck is Bruce Gould? I get his mail about every 2 months. He must be a billionaire! According to his literature he knows all the perfect trades. For that matter I'm sick of Lee Gettes, Chuck Hughes, George Angell, Don Fishback, etc.....As far as I can figure all these guys and their...

    re Todd Mitchell

    I bought his course quite a long time ago, I think he had just started selling it then. Basically it was determine a trend, and then trade with the trend on pullbacks and continuation. he may have changed since then and added more, but I bet it is material you can read anywhere. I sent it back...

    Anyone here ever hear of a guy using the name Grumpee?

    That doesn't seem to be true according to what I just heard in their regular room. Guy said there is a 1-1.5 stp and then take profit and move stp to breakeven on the trade. By any chance are you bashing for the sake of it?

    Anyone here ever hear of a guy using the name Grumpee?

    Yes, it looks like he is locked up in their new room. No one seems to be jumping to the free room slamming him, but I gather its only been open a day or two.
