    How can we improve our trading skill ?

    Also a lot of it is knowing how to follow a system and finding one that works. Too many traders trade purely based on speculation and emotion. There are a lot of possibilities in the market if you can follow a system.

    Message boards have been way to bearish

    I like the quote about losing your opinion and listening to the market. Many people forget to do that and they try to trade the market based on their own feelings instead of what the market is actually doing.

    How can we improve our trading skill ?

    Agreed. Learning from mistakes is key as well. If you keep making the same mistakes over and over, you’re going to lose eventually.

    That’s weird… When I clicked on the link it came up as a 404? Anyone else experiencing that?

    How can we improve our trading skill ?

    To me, keeping with the automated system is key. Emotions are what destroys trading because everyone loves to pick a winner or call the bottom on the market. We like to make a prediction and have it come true. That’s why gambling is so popular. But the market is structured to take advantage of...

    Peter Thiel Gives 20 Teenagers $100K Each to Skip College

    It's an interesting social experiment. College is basically what you make of it - some people I look at clearly should never have gone to college whereas others benefit immensely from it. Some people get scholarships and subsidies that provide a stable, safe place for them to experiment and test...

    Message boards have been way to bearish

    Agreed, I love the OP poster's point about buying stocks and going to the beach. Message boards are way too negative. Yes the market may go through a bear cycle soon, but that's normal, as will be the bull cycle after. That's why they call it a cycle… Markets go up and markets go down.

    Treasury's Miller: No banks will be bailed out

    That’s BS. They won’t let Bank of America go down no matter what it does, for example. It would erode too much confidence – it’s just feel good talk for taxpayers.

    With Central Banks now openly buying stocks, how can the Bull end?

    All bull markets will have to come to an end, the question is just when and how. At some point the DOW will probably be 10k again, and at some point it might even be 20k. We don’t know – with the Fed pumping in a lot of liquidity, it would not surprise me if we kept going higher though.

    Guy Spent $11,000 On A Coding 'Bootcamp' And Doubled His Salary

    Right, exactly. I like the concept of both the school and the student having something to gain by giving students a good education. That way the value of education is only as great as the job market.

    Guy Spent $11,000 On A Coding 'Bootcamp' And Doubled His Salary

    Hmmm… I guess that is true. There are already a ton of financial “educational” opportunities out there that are nothing but scams. Still I like the idea of an education where the employer gains something by giving you skills that get you hired.

    Guy Spent $11,000 On A Coding 'Bootcamp' And Doubled His Salary

    I wonder if they’d ever have anything like that for trading? Send your kid to a trading bootcamp and take 15% of the profits. Hey doesn’t sound like a bad idea for them – if the school doesn’t put up any capital they’re never out anything.
