I stand by what I say. I think it's a red flag if "traders" are constantly posting during market hours. I've already stated (from my experience) that this isn't the norm but what d08 say can be true and politely requested who so I know who here are pro algo traders. Yet you've decided to go the...

I was rounding and corrected myself to ~40% but at the same time he only had 100K and I am making an assumption that $200 a day can get an average person by. Earning 20-30% a year is good but it wont get you by with 100K unless you're really young. Hope that makes sense as this was more geared...

LOL oops, was typing too quickly. 0.002 * 100k = $200. Quickly added a % at the end.

Not at this point no - I do not plan on advertising and soliciting here, just giving my answer to lazy element. Also from a business standpoint most ET people are American's who I can't open accounts for. A non US person opening a prop-like firm in the US is really expensive and insanely hard to...

This doesn't sound like an opinion at all, sounds more like you are trying to say it's a fact that only if one is scalping then you don't need to monitor positions but sorry this is wrong.

IDK. To be profitable? In 20 years you haven't thought to monitor trades more closely and learn to adjust. You think it's crazy for anyone to point out that this may not be the way to go? I don't have anything else to say. Stubborn.

I was a chartered investment manager at an IIROC financial planning firm managing model portfolios in an advisory position - $75 million at it's peak. Same firm for ~13 years. During that time I was swing trading and day trading just after the open and was able to do this since I'm on the west...

Deaddog, here is a prime example or people posting whatever they want and giving advice regardless of their trading skills. Literally 3min ago Padutrader wrote this in a different thread: "now i am slowly getting profitable because i know what not to do." He just straight up admitted he is only...

Regarding buying a second home, I agree, don't. I would suggest doing a wheel strategy in a non registered account instead. You could look at writing puts on 3x leveraged ETF's which would be better on your buying power and the premiums are nicer. Just don't go crazy and write puts on a...

I don't agree with needing to be a computer or do that many trades but at the same time I probably need to lower my expectations for other people.

A class funds = 2%. 1% to manager, 1% to the salesperson selling you the fund. F class = only pay the 1% to the manager. Different fund codes but same underlying assets. If you do research on the top funds offered in Canada you'll find out that some of them out perform the market in 3,5,10 year...

I'm pretty sure it is vision on most days on most hard to borrow stocks but you could request a daily hard to borrow list over a course of a week to compare.

WKHS option chain is crazy. Really tempted on naked otm straddles.

Punle, do more research into funds and overall markets. There is almost no point in buying a pure Canadian ETF or fund. For the same amount of risk you can just buy SPY. The canadian market RARELY outperforms the US. We had clients in Dynamic Equity Income Fund to achieve slightly greater TSX...

"If he is smart then he’ll be able to utilize any such platform better than other people. " Utilizing a robo advisor for asset allocation or to seek alpha is the stupidest thing I've ever heard. You fundamentally don't know how robo advisors work. Their asset allocation is between 8-12...

When people say they are traders but when I see a lot of their timestamp posts they are constantly posting during market hours. Many people here also have clear comprehension and literacy issues or they purposefully extrapolate a sentence out of a clear connected idea and try to refute it by...

The guy is smart enough to get to this point but you are recommending just invest in spy but you also advise him to get a US firm to do his asset allocation for him - a firm that sucks at A/A themselves. Stop.

Not sure what both of you are talking about or if you're just twisting my words for the sake of making an argument out of nothing. What is wrong with making $200 a day? Of course I wouldn't take that for granted because I was there at one point and was pretty damn proud of finally making it as...

If you can't make money with 100K then yeah sorry you can't make it. If you can't make $200 a day which is only 0.002% then it just aint for ya! No worries. You can still find a job in the investment field to earn around 6 figures eventually.

Don't listen to Guru lol. Do your own research. Wealthfront is a US firm you are obviously Canadian so it will omit all the Canadian hedge funds and alternative investment trusts. Not only but that their flagship fund that they advertise has a 5 year annual return of 6.16% - LOL.
