    Are female traders rare?

    I disagree. I've seen a handlful of good female traders at Tradescape that could average $3K-5K a day (and they were pretty cute). They are not risk averse and they're very disciplined unlike most male traders I know.

    newbie question(s) about pro firms

    If you can come up with $5K then you can get access to $75-200K buying power at a prop shop, depending on your level of experience. If you're not profitable, trading losses and commissions will come out of your deposit until you are forced to replenish this money. The alternative is to cut...

    Where To Find Threads on Experiences with Bright Trading?

    I fail to understand why newbies choose firms like Bright Trading which charges you a monthly desk fee and training fees when you can easily find a firm that doesn't charge for these things and has very competitive rates and fast software platforms. Don't newbies do their homework or are they...

    Okay, so I'm beginning to see this twisted reasoning. Thanks hii, for the succinct explanation. My bad! Sorry danny, no hard feelings? :D

    I don't get it. If I was one of the infected monks and I saw nine others with dots on their head for nine consecutive days, how would that make me realize I'm infected? For all I know, there are only nine afflicted monks. That's not enough information for me to assume I'm infected and commit...

    Actually, I have an answer to the monk riddle. The diseased monks were reluctant to kill themselves over the first nine days until they began to feel the symptoms of the disease on the tenth day. Due to the excruciating pain, they killed themselves on the last day. PUZZLE SOLVED! GIVE THE...

    No wonder it's hard to argue with you. This is the stupidest solution I ever heard. If the monks don't know the total number of infected people, then they will not kill themselves based on the number of dots they see. If I'm infected and I see 9 dots, I won't automatically kill myself...

    Totally Anonymous BS poll

    You've got too much time on your hands, buddy. Spend more time working on your trading methodology and quit clogging up the ET boards.

    why THE HELL is it so easy to do the wrong thing...

    Gordon, What stocks do you trade? How many shares do you trade a day? What do you tend to look for in a trade? Do you look for any specific chart set-ups? Are you a support/resistance type of trader? Do you have a clearly defined methodology? How large is your stop...

    Osama is Alive

    Was the article REALLY a hoax? Or is the CIA engaging in a cover-up to prevent mass hysteria? I think I'll start stockpiling the Spam and bottled water and move into an underground bunker just in case...

    The Sopranos

    If there was a market for it, then producers would go for it. However, there is none since most people would find it offensive (except the KKK). Eddie Murphy's short-lived show, "The PJs", poked stereotypical fun at low-income blacks but didn't last. "The Bernie Mac Show" also does the same...

    Series 7

    Alot of sub-LLCs and equity funds that clear through prop firms don't require the Series 7.

    The first 30 minutes

    The first 15 minute period is highly volatile and I tend to trade lightly. I put in more size from 9:45 to 10:30 when things calm down and the market makers have finished with their morning head fakes and overnight orders have been executed.

    The Sopranos

    The Sopranos is a compelling, gritty and often realistic depiction of mob life. In no way does it glorify it. Could an equally acclaimed drama emerge from the gangster underbellies of Chinatown, Harlem or Miami? Doubtful. These settings just don't resonate with the same emotional impact...
