I wonder who many losing trades you make in the process of making the 17 profitable ones? :D

Your money is being blocked (held) or is your trading blocked?

Not sure what's so hard to understand - the account that you are trading needs to have $25K in it to avoid the PDT rules. What's so hard about that?

...... or 800 on the ask and 100 on the bid - yet 500 of those 800 get pulled before they trade...

Goes higher than your entry point. If you follow my rule, you'll never lose.

I have only one rule: Go long - sell when it goes up - if it doesn't go up, don't go long.

No, it should not. "It" may not have been the "one" that caused the memory to be "used" in the first place. You are thinking too much about something that doesn't matter, and is not at all black and white.

Why do you think it *should* free up?

"...I plan to be compensated for your success. However, only if you are successful. My thoughts are to request 30% of your net profits at the end of each week to be wired or transferred to an IB account. This, to me, is the fairest way I know of to make it worthwhile and gives me motivation...

I'm not disputing any claims, was just curious why it mattered if anyone else was taking the calls. However, I have noticed that a few times fills would have been questionable based on the times the entries were posted. That isn't a problem related directly to Davidba, but to anyone who...

I'm curious - why always this mention of the "fellow trader" and what he does based on your calls?

Aha. "less than perfect trade" vs. "loser". Aren't those two totally different things? The main problem is this - you don't know if a trade is a winner or a loser until you exit. Think Mr. Market. I don't disagree with anything you are saying - all I'm saying is IMO there are no hard...
