    DD-YM-Trader: A YM Trader Speaks

    ProfLogic, looks like you wan to be interviewed, too. My first question might be "How does it feel to be the inspiration for EquiPrice charting?"

    DD-YM-Trader: A YM Trader Speaks

    Thank you for your readership and comments Rcanfiel and BB. Something to keep in mind. I have wanted to interview several private correspondent real traders before, and they have all declined. We are fortunate that Razor and DD-YM were willing to expose themselves to ridicule. And I am...

    DD-YM-Trader: A YM Trader Speaks

    Thank you. I don't mind aditting that I am asking you questions like that not only for ET's benefit but for my own, as well. Now this, please, although I think I already know the answer: Why both DD and YM? And, since you are evidently beyond "piker" status, what are your views about...

    DD-YM-Trader: A YM Trader Speaks

    DD-YM, thank you for your candor. As an aside to our readers, do you see what we are getting here? We are talking to people for whom we take it at face value that they actually trade, are net profitable, and support themselves. For a time we willingly suspend disbelief and promote cordial...

    DD-YM-Trader: A YM Trader Speaks

    Ian, everybody wants more. As that great Texan Charlie Wilson said, "Too much is not enough." But what do YOU want more of? Let me remind all that if you want more congenial discourse like this on ET, help Razor, DD-YM and me keep it OT and out of C-C. I believe that ET hungers for the...

    DD-YM-Trader: A YM Trader Speaks

    Rcanfiel, of all the people on ET, you are close to the top of my list of people to interview. Your tenacity is amazing. And your ability to engage otherwise intelligent posters in endless circular mindnumbingly unresolvable debate is astonishing. Perhaps you will let me present you in a kinder...

    DD-YM-Trader: A YM Trader Speaks

    What a great gift that was! Compared that is to those of us who are autodidacts and have fools for pupils. Might I ask, does much survive in your current method from what your mentor taught you? And continuing the standard questions, do you also work a regular job in addition to trading?

    Razor: The Mind of an NQ Trader

    Well, EdgeHunter sure tells a good story. But I don't approve of the company he keeps. While we digress momentarily, I must confess to some confusion about the collective psyche of ET. I am quite sure that there are not two Duref Mudgins here. But when I write facetiously, all I garner is...

    DD-YM-Trader: A YM Trader Speaks

    It is my pleasure to facilitate your transfer of wisdom. Excuse my ignorance, DD-YM, I don't get around much. What is this DD that you trade? And while I do sympathize with your scepticism regarding enlightening ET, a gentleman is obliged to do what he can. Continuing with the standard...

    Razor: The Mind of an NQ Trader

    Plodder, if you think it wise. But perhaps you should interview him. I'm not quite following everything he says, although I have had quite a bit of practice interpreting the posts of many a turgid writer her, not to name names. If you find me dull, it is because I am.

    DD-YM-Trader: A YM Trader Speaks

    I thought NQ traders were the underclass of ET, since in Candera's Index Futures poll only six out of eighty respondents admit to trading NQ. So imagine my surprise when I got a PM from a YM trader demanding equal time! I handn't noticed that Candera did not even include YM specifically in his...

    Razor: The Mind of an NQ Trader

    EdgeHunter, I like it. But I think Artie and Joe were in their cups that night. Those charlatans once sold me a real-time NDX cash code so I could see when cash led futs and versa vicie, you know, the Jack thing, but for NQ? Turns out the accurst code choked my data feed AND my CPU, so bad that...

    Razor: The Mind of an NQ Trader

    Ah, so nothing mysterious there in NQ for you, huh, Razor? Me, I trade it because the contract is cheap. Now please tell me, do you have a plan for where you are going re stocks and NQ for the longer term? I see from your other posts that you typically make more each day trading stocks than...

    Razor: The Mind of an NQ Trader

    That's very inspiring. Most people give up their day jobs too early in the game. From the recent posts of yours I read in Anekdoten's thread, you are doing quite well! Can we go back to your beginnings? I am interested in why you started with NASDAQ stocks (if that's the case), and how you...

    ET Cold Turkey

    ET Cold Turkey - Day Five Concerned Dr. Mudgins: "You didn't call me yesterday. You OK?" Contemplative ET Client: "I had some issues." Mudgins: "Such as?" Client: "I realized that I am an addictive personality." Mudgins: "I am glad YOU said it!" Client: "You know how when you...

    Razor: The Mind of an NQ Trader

    Well, you certainly are in the minority of beginning traders, having survived since 1999. If you will forgive me jumping around the next few posts, several things come to mind from what you have said. First, were you working when you first got interested in stocks, and are you working now? (You...

    Razor: The Mind of an NQ Trader

    Razor (the real one), thanks for participating. I can see already that this will be interesting. And thanks for the background information on yourself. Please tell us how you came to start trading in the first place. And if you will quit trading individual stocks when your success at futures is...

    Razor: The Mind of an NQ Trader

    Thank you Razor(r) for your patience. You're next. Think the cover of The Who's album, "Who's Next?".

    Razor: The Mind of an NQ Trader

    Razor(r), all you had to do was PM my literary agent and I would have been pleased to profile you. But now kindly wait your turn until after I have perfected the art of the interview with the real Razor. Then I will be able to do you full justice. This is perhaps as good a time as any to...

    Razor: The Mind of an NQ Trader

    I intend here to conduct an in-depth interview with Razor, a NAZDAQ-100 e-mini futures and stock trader. The interview is my attempt to improve the quality of posting on ET, which many have complained has declined precipitously of late. Neither of us pretends to any trading greatness, we are...
