    What is the best DOM out there and why?

    TT is like 50$ now....really cheap. And ADL is a pseudo programing language that isn't more difficult to learn than python.

    What is the best DOM out there and why?

    Besides a few high level platforms that are no accessible to retail, there are only two DOM's that are even worth mentioning: 1. TT 2. CQG TT is more for the scalper, CQG is a very good spreading tool. All those retail platforms like NT, ATAS, Jigsaw etc. are just toys. They are very rich in...

    Options spread profile - Max profit value

    Well, it doesn't really matter what you think. First quote details give you a -1.35 by -1.20 market and the second one a -3.20 by 2.60 market. Those two are different and that's it. There are only a handful of reasons why: 1. Prices changed 2. you messed up something with the pictures 3...

    Gold A "Safe Haven" In This Market Decline?

    https://finviz.com/futures_charts.ashx?t=ALL&p=m1 look at this.Besides paladium there is no single bull market. Stocks down, commodities down, bonds down, energy down, metals down. Gold isn't in bull mode until 1350 is cracked. I personally don't like gold as a hedge and this time it looks...

    Market evolving

    Price patterns have zero predictive value, they just can be used to measure risk/reward. When it comes to patterns, correlated market is where it's at. When RSX tanks everytime Oil does, that's a pattern you can trade off of.

    Market evolving

    Nobody is talking about candles or price patterns. If you're still in this stage, I'd suggest you papertrade for another year.

    Late to the game

    I don't think you know how this stuff is working. It's not meant to be discouraging, it's meant to be realistic and to save him unecessary hassle. I've been in the industry since 2003 in various positions from broker to trader and I've seen it all. I've seen wealthy men lose it all, not just...

    Late to the game

    I'm not quite sure how you put it, but I don't think you have any idea how hard it really is. I mean, not everybody makes 6 figure incomes, so you probably must have done something right and work ethic is always part of it...but I can tell you that you have not done anything in your entire...

    Does market profile system have the potential for generating good retruns ?

    The biggest firms issue ETFs for the public to do the "trendfollowing", the rest is relative value. Fixed income arb, merger arb, basis trading, cash&carry, long/short aka. pairs trading, stat arb, correlation and dispersion trading and what not. The "big guys with billions" or how you call...

    Does market profile system have the potential for generating good retruns ?

    There is no such thing as "trendfollowing". This is just an old expression from people who id not know better. When you follow the trend, you are betting on autocorrelation. So when your market is autocorrelated, even moving averages make money. Big boys do not follow the trend, this is long...

    Does market profile system have the potential for generating good retruns ?

    I wasn't trying to be disrespectful or cocky. I really think you should not trade at this point and probably should not even think about starting. Thing is: Profits in trading come from having an advantage over other people. You either are faster so you can grab the risk free profit before...

    Based on that answer you probably think if you really want to get into trading.

    What to do with my life?

    Nope, just not true. If they think you have it, you just get a job offer, no matter which market you trade. No upfront equity, no course you have to pay and the split is individual after a while. I would never pay 350$ for a 2500$ drawdown on a simulator. I'd rather scrape together 5 grand...

    What to do with my life?

    They used to make money and they have contact to a lot of big names in the industry. Also it's not a requirement to pay for their courses in order to trade for them. They have access to good comissions and infrastructure, so when you know how to make a profit, I don't see any problem to trade...
