    Flipping is Back? : House Flippers in U.S. Crowd Courthouse Steps in Hunt for Deals

    I believe it is an artificially inflated housing market based on the government funding. Yes, a dead cat bounce. As stated earlier, the "pros" are taking advantage of their window. They still buy right. Always the key. They also have very niche farmed areas and the newbies are much fewer...

    best way to get fired so I can collect unemployment and jumpstart my trading career?

    not true. government employees will make careers out of doing nothing. not all, but there are quite a handful. as far as the poster - you're a bottom feeder. stay out of my wallet unless you earn it

    wavel: Everything I know is here

    lets let the thread get going. he isnt going to mention his profits or amounts, so who cares. it's either good info or it's not. a guy could have a great trading history with a micro account on fx and it doesnt invalidate his trading other than size not impacting his abilities. i think...

    Efficient Use of Capital, Position Sizing, Model Allocations

    i guess part of it would be to see how often an event like that occures and how large my risk tolerance per trade happens to be. considering the average area i would cut a trade loose for a total blowout would be between 5-10% move on the stock against me. this would be .5% of my account at...

    Efficient Use of Capital, Position Sizing, Model Allocations

    Just checking that I understand this. So if you have 10 open positions for a total of 5% of your account, your worst case scenario is a total blowout (2000%)? I must be missing something?

    hardworking at what? there are still jobs around, people just claim to be "looking". hardworking to me, in the situation of becoming unemployed, is someone who is up 7am-7pm looking for any job he/she can get. there is no shame in working at a grocery store, bartending or any other type of...

    so no hard stops? what are you looking for to punch out (when you know you're wrong)? it seems like you know you should punch but you want to be right. it's like when someone asks you a question they already know the answer to. hopefully that doesnt sound rude, but just an analogy.
