Well. It does take a lot of work if you want to be a top-performer. But if you just want to make a living, all you need a simple system or two, a realistic amount of capital, and the right mindset to execute your trades without hesitation. As I said in the above example. 50% HR and 2:1 RR is...

And Samson77 for instance would probably be one of those "few" traders who do this successfully. And how about Jai Ramoutar? NihabaAshi? AMT4SWA? Cutten? Girlpower? velocity_trader? Trade4Succes? nitro? Aaron? Ken_DTU? BrandonF? Marketsurfer? Riskarb? ChartingMarkets? praetorian2? dpanic...

OK, sorry if I got something wrong here. I'm still not getting the point on this issue I guess. What's the point here? :confused:

OK, that's all very fine and nice. Regardless, money cannot "disappear" in trading. For every time somebody loses, somebody else is likely making money. So how can anybody claim that it's not possible to make money in this game? Makes no sense to me. A whole lot of gibberish from frustrated...

I don't know about all this. I can think of at least 10 traders on ET that are making a living off this. So, 3 years is the "critical time" for verifyable success? Will things get tough after 3 years? I don't know about that. I think I can say quite confidently that 2 years ago, my trading...

Hey Cobbers... :D Yeah, I've just been looking at the SPI200, Oz T bonds etc for the last few hours. And I've spent (wasted?) $30 for the eSignal subscribtion fee. I agree with both of you - The markets aren't very interesting. I always wanted to have a look into them though. I've traded...

Hey, I had another good look at the SFE and found sth really interesting... The YT (3-year bonds) on the Sydney Futures Exchange have traded a total volume of over 2,000,000 in December (21 days) - That's essentially 100,000 contracts/day, pretty equal to DAX! :eek: The SPI volume is...

Got a 1,500 / 512 mbps ADSL here with 35GB cap (~AU$140/month). I load about 600-900 MB of datafeed per day (eSignal). But the jump from the wild west over SA penalizes me more than any of you lucky guys... :( My average to gw2.ibllc.com is 336ms... :( :( :( However, my average to...

Just thought I'd add this for a bit of illustration.... Now this is proper flaming! :p :D You would be out of your depth in a parking lot puddle. I see you've set aside this special time to humiliate yourself on the Internet. You've got a big hole in your head, now shut it. When you are at...

I think the fact that a lot of us make a living out of "tearing others down" might have a little to do with this, too. The fact that for many of us our "primal violent attack instinct" is (has to be) suppressed all day long in order to keep a clear head and survive the modern battle for...

Speaking of which; metoox, are there any solutions out yet to transform DOM and / or tape data into audible signals, to reduce the workload of optical processing and improve focus on the more relevant things? That would really insterest me. I know sth like this would be super. Not to mention...

"Their CPU is a neural-net processor. A learning computer." :D

Now THAT really is sad! :( I don't have any wireless stuff by the way. It's all cable salad here, I don't mind it... :D Of course I'm online man. Told you I'm always online! :cool:

All the reviews etc on bluetooth over here have been bad, bad, and dead. Never heard anything positive. As for Logitech; They're king man. They $hit all over M$ and all that crap hardware! Over any hardware, for that matter. In my office, everything is Logitech nowadays. Why settle for...

:D :D :D

Something stinks there. And I know it must stink on Fast's side, because I can always see you online, and everyone else I know on Y!... :confused:

That's funny. The press over here is completely different, i.e. it's long passe in Japan etc. Perhaps it's a centralized thing in the US or sth like that. Or maybe it just hasn't made its way here yet? :confused: Ah well. Who cares anyway... :)

So, where the heck is Fast_Trader to be found on Y! now? Still not figured it! :confused: Fast, PM me your Y! handle if you have a new one, and say hello sometime! :cool:

I don't know if this still falls into the discussion of "brain latency" and the minimum acceptable response time for humans. But it's still something that blew my mind... Today I had dinner with a bunch of friends in a very famous and massively crowded Vietnamese restaurant here in my...

Another crucial lesson to learn during a computer-user's evolutionionary process. Survival of the fittest. I wonder why Darwin seems to have forgotten operating systems, though. Somehow, everything is different there. I've heard so much bad stuff about bluetooth, I thought it was long dead...
