You aren't exaclty "journaling" your trading. Simple P/L posts can go here... http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?threadid=187235

I've used Cyborg with Sterling and Trade-Ideas for a short time and agree with everything previously said. It's a great program that easily allows you to automate, and is very stable and fast.

Nope I rarely hold overnights. That was taken early today, I closed the day around +$3500. Activity has picked up lately.

My last down year was 1997. I was simply stating in my thread that it's a tough environment for new guys. Reading comprehension...

Making any sense of your dozens of mindless posts would take way more time than I would ever spend on you. Talk about the pot calling the kettle black. For good measure here's today's p/l. I'm +$30k the past 7 days. Put up or shut up man.

...and here in lies the rub. What is it that they say about assumptions and free lunches?

I emailed the Denver piece author: Thanks. I don't think it's a modest tax either, but it may seem that way to some. Best -- David On 11/27/09, Dustin <...@gmail.com> wrote: > As a full-time trader I wholeheartedly agree with your article, but I think > you miss one crucial point that...

Not my intention at all. Over the years I've had countless PM's from new traders asking for direction. This blanket post is meant for them. Anyways you can have your opinion and let's leave it at that.

Untrue, I was too defensive on some crazy days last year and regret it. There wasn't a risk of blowing out so what was the point? I think knowing when to press your bets is an important aspect of trading.

Yeah that's me, just another losing trader who doesn't know what he's talking about. Today: On your second point I agree that if any new trader can make it now, they have a good chance succeeding long term.

I'm just commenting on what I believe to be the current state of trading based on my results, and the other long time profitable traders that I know. If you are making $$$ then congrats.

Let's try to keep the thread on topic, thanks.

I'm surprised nobody picked up on this.

Not at all impossible. The indices influenced mostly by a handful of stocks. When the market is active then everything else starts moving too. That's when there's real opportunity, at least for my trading style. I think a lot of new traders fall into the trap of trading the typical high...

I've never been a size trader so liquidity hasn't been much of an issue for me, but I know what you are saying.

For you guys that like to trade those names I imagine there were some nice opportunities lately. I agree that this past week showed promise and I hope there's more to come. Are you saying you think new traders should be trading AAPL AMZN BIDU?
