    Doomsday: How BP Gulf disaster may have triggered a 'world-killing' event

    I would really like to hear more about this, but probably won't. If it is true, we'll all find out well too late. And all along we thought we had until 2012

    65 million flats in China are vacant

    20 years average salary? I love Chinese statistics. How much do you really think the true average person in China earns? Let's take a convenience store worker for instance. Let's take the really high end and say around 2,500 dollars a year, and a flat will cost you a lot more than 50K, so...

    Interactive Brokers vs. Professional Prop firm platforms

    There's no reason there would be a faster platform than IB, you can't really get faster than instant.

    BP is gone. Under 5 in 12 months

    It's because you're talking about a company that earned a profit of over 16 billion dollars last year. Some companies would go bankrupt from a 80 million dollar fine, some wouldn't go bankrupt from an 80 billion dollar fine. Don't get scared by big numbers, you need to see how the worst...

    Funding the Trade Account

    Just keep in mind, you still don't know if you can trade profitably until you've done so. If you have a solid strategy, then why can't you start smaller?

    reasons for big loss?

    To the OP, it sounds like your edge is a system, which can often works if you look in hindsight, but in reality doesn't work so well. The problem is your system.

    THey were right, the Death Cross never fails

    Anyway... Keep in mind that every month we don't produce 150K jobs, we are losing jobs because of population growth. Most don't realise that we need that many added just to keep up.

    Half the posters on here would be thrilled to be as successful in life as a taxi driver.

    I'm not saying where my stop is until after I see what happens, then I'll let you know.

    THey were right, the Death Cross never fails

    I can tell you've probably blown out several account: short incinerated. What kind of amateur trader, short or long, would risk being incinerated on one trade idea. How ridiculous. How about, shorts probably stopped out for a small loss, or shorts stopped out for a small loss on short...

    What's the difference between Obama and a communist?

    Active ES traders

    The thing that was off was your math. 4000 rt a day would be 1 r/t more in the range of a trade every 20 something seconds. There's a bid difference between 500 miliseconds and over 20 seconds.

    broke/ unemployed and out of options so i signed up for the military.

    I love America, but the Democrats and liberals have destroyed our country and given all our money to large corporations.

    broke/ unemployed and out of options so i signed up for the military.

    It doesn't have to be an Asian country. Canada is another option.

    broke/ unemployed and out of options so i signed up for the military.

    There's no reason to give up, and I think the OP has a very legitimate reason to complain. You've spent a lot of money on your education, you've built a debt doing it, and you don't want to work a crummy job. Why not leave the US? So many people are doing it today? Companies are...

    New trader. Is my strategy ridiculous?

    The problem is you're asking a whole bunch of people who don't make money trading, whether you're doing right by making money. If you make money, you're always right. If you lose all your money, you're wrong. What you need to do is spend a few months looking back at historical charts. See if...

    Pension fund suing BP

    That's a law suit that won't be won. The Saudi fund didn't do too well suing C, and C out right lied about its books. As far as a plan to deal with a disaster, this lies at the foot of our own government, which did an assessment years ago, that said that even in the event of a major spill...

    Any chat room has good track Record ?

    I like the 4.99 go daddy web site. Always speaks of a successful trader. After all, if you were a super successful futures trader, and wanted to start a business, surely you would invest no more than 5 dollars in it. That's big money in Russia. You can buy like a whole year's worth of bread...

    Instead of soupkitchen lines we have this.

    With over 30 million Americans on food stamps, we're only pretending we don't have food lines. The only difference between now and the Great Depression, is that when the government did start to give money out for free, it was money that we actually had. Today, we've got over 5 million people...
