    Genesis securities?

    How many shares do you average per month? How many shares per trade? How many trades per day average? Depending on these things you will probably get more information.

    Nice advertising. Isn't that not allowed on the forums. But seriously, you make it sound absolutely amazing apex. Virginia is for lovers... well Forex is for idiots. Well, a few of those idiots make money, but I guarantee not many.

    Trading Bubble at it's greatest. Trade 100 shares of stock *Or less if on Nasdaq* Trade 1 contract of YM Mini-dow. Do not trade Forex. Cut your losses, let your winners run. Read books on trading psychology. Keep working at it. 2 - 3 years you will know if you got what it...

    Baggerlords Journal III !

    Journals belong on the journals forum... why put it in the index futures forum? :confused: But, good luck with the trading. Perhaps you should consider the fact that it isn't your trading method that is not working, it's yourself that is not working. Trading is all mental...

    Genesis securities?

    I like Genesis, one of the best brokers and great platform. Wonderful tech support. Funny how people can't recognize a good thing but tend to sign up for the crap like eTrade and stuff.

    Help in demonstrating skills and techniques

    Has this system been tested live for at least a year? Or are these just assumptions that you found something. A week or two ago you were asking about the taxes, so I'm assuming you haven't been testing live. Are you looking to sell this system?

    Please Advise...

    Trade retail. Put 3 - 5k in a futures account and see how long you last with it. I've lasted 10 months now with 3k total. I've also been interested in the IT field, but decided not to go that route because as you said, the industry is screwed. Only 5% - 10% of traders make it. I can't...

    Do you agree with Dr.Elder?

    hehe, I meant a real poll on the forum, either in the chit chat or in the career trader or something. I think it would be interesting to see the average age of traders. I'm guessing 30 will be the average, but who knows.

    Any Formula One Fans?

    Anyone in here fans of Formula One racing? Who likes what driver/team in here? I'm personally all over BMW, but hope the Minardi team could pull out a few wins once in awhile *hah, what a miracle that would be* I have nothing against oval racing, but, it is just a shame how many...

    Do you agree with Dr.Elder?

    Has there ever been a poll? I think it would be interesting. Poll: If you are a day-trader, what age group do you fit in? 13 - 17 *It might be possible?* 18 - 25 *I'd fit in this category!* 26-30 31-40 41-50 51 and Up Or something like that.... Anyone feel like starting one...

    Predicting intraday price movement

    It's, buy low, sell high. And there is no holy grail, because something will not work forever. The ability to adapt, and change to extract money from the market is the only thing that matters.

    Predicting intraday price movement

    I wouldn't say predicting. For example, when I watch the YM, I have a good "feel" for where it will go next. I'd say I'm right anywhere from 60 - 80% of the time in "predicting" where it will go. But it is more of a case of just studying the price, seeing what happens before it makes moves...

    Characteristics of cheap stocks vs expensive stocks

    I'd believe that cheapers stocks can move very quickly on a lot of selling or buying. I don't know exactly how it works, but those stocks can make moves from news. I really don't think there is that much risk for day-traders as you are monitoring the positions. But for investors/swing...

    Trading/Scalping Taxes

    I'm assuming you are talking about futures since you mentioned round turn. 7 per trade is far too expensive. If you are thinking about scalping, go to Transact or Global futures. If you are talking about equities, then those commissions will kill you. I suggest Genesis if you are going to...
