not so much how long you trade, but what hours? Do you get up very early? Or do you trade thtought the night?(seems choppy) do you just trade when ever you want? What's your daily routine? Let's keep all the hours EST to avoid confusion. Thanks

No trading today. Internet is going in and out. I just moved into a new place and my internet won't be installed until monday...i was stealing it but now its not working so well. No rush anyways.

thanks that's quite a compliment. I did turn 21 today. I should be out drinking, but alas I am at home with the charts...

That's interesting, but I don't think that way. I'm only trading a couple contracts and I don't think of it as money. As far as I'm concerned trading is merely a game in which I try to rack up as many points as possible. This helps keep money out of my mind along with all the profit damaging...

My goal is anywhere from 8-12 points per day. It may take a long time for me to be able to do that consistently, but thats ok. With the amount of leverage in trading 8-12 points can make anyone a very very nice living, so why try for anymore?

haha Cramer has done what all of you are still trying to do. think about that.

haha hey i do have 4 hard drives

Some of these set ups are insane...anyways heres mine. apple mac pro w/tiger and XP

Thanks! I have been checking out the PA threads, a long with everything else PA under the sun. Today could have been a fluke..I'm not going to make any assumptions this way or that...just going to try to go with the flow. What im attempting to do is decipher where demand kicks in, and where...

Word.

what does trading have to do with this? I doubt any of us are stupid enough to try to trade macroeconomic theories. and i doubt you do either.

Ummm thats exactly whats happening all around the country. the people on the ground floor that deal with the foreclosures don't really have the companies best interest in mind. They are governed by a set of rules...rules that were probably developed years ago and that actually arent working at...

Just throwing this out there. we all know that dealing with and controlling greed and fear are central to becoming a profitable trader, I think I found a way to help, at least me, with these emotions. In my trading of the NQ I try not to think about money at all. I try to think of it as some...

I know right....what's this BS about the all knowing market. the market is controlled by PEOPLE. People who can be wrong and usually are.

no! it may not be a bad deal but if you think thats a GOOD deal you have not done very much shopping around. Houses that were built last year are selling for one-half what they cost TO BUILD, no lie. If you are buying right now you shouldnt be paying anywhere near last years prices.

good thread, things we're always going to get worse before they got better. banks will still have to write down their alt a and home equity loan losses (theres a whole lot more of those than subprime loans). I bought a house, got a loan from First Horizon, closed and my 30 year fixed rate could...

I just moved to denver myself.

I just noticed this thread after I started my journal. Very cool.
