Sounds good to me!

After consistent profitability in the past comes the difficulty of remaining profitable in the future. That is the ultimate goal of trading. Past performance does not guarantee future results and it is a continual challenge to be net positive every month. It's like being a professional...

I cry whenever I watch the end of "E.T."

I agree. Different traders have varying risk profiles depending on the time frame and expectation of the trade. But adding on to a loser when the stock is going against you (and not reversing in your favor) is bad trading, whether you call it "scaling in" or "averaging down."

Good trading principles are the same whether you're trading in 100 share lots or 100,000 share blocks. The execution methods will differ a little. I've seen traders bang in and out of 100K share blocks just as easily as smaller traders with 100 shares. Just because you have a large share...

Scaling in when a stock keeps going down is another way of rationalizing averaging down. Both methods can still kick your ass if you're wrong. If the stock is going against you, you shouldn't buy another lot until the first lot is in the money. Otherwise, exit the first lot if your stops are...

Do you guys have a trust fund or something? You can't pay for those bad boys with trading profits that's for sure. Well...maybe a Matchbox version...

If I work there, would I have to churn crap like WCOM for pennies?

A Frenchman, an Englishman, and a New Yorker get captured by cannibals. The Chief comes to them and says, "The bad news is that now that we've caught you, we're going to kill you. We will put you in a pot and cook you, then we'll eat you, and then we'll use your skins to build a canoe. The...

I couldn't find RS7 in the phony veterans website! Is his last name 7 or S7?

This is more fun than the De La Hoya-Vargas fight! I'll just heat up some popcorn and enjoy the show!:p

I think Max401 and I scared RS7 away for good. Please come back! I miss your funny stories!:)

Anyone catch the season premiere? How did Elisha get so HOT in the course of a few months from last season?

IMO, it is not important if the trainer actively trades as long as he has alot of experience. An experienced trainer can bring you up the learning curve much faster than learning on your own. Just because he doesn't trade now doesn't mean that he doesn't know what a good buy is. Afterwards...

A young man named Aphie joined the Army and signed up with the paratroopers. He went though the standard training, completed the practice jumps from higher and higher structures, and finally went to take his first jump from an airplane. The next day, Aphie called home to his father to tell him...

Everyone takes the other side of daytraders' positions (including fellow daytraders).

I think using gas was the correct solution in this situation. I am critical of the fact that the Russian soldiers did not have enough antidotes for the victims and there were not enough support personnel to help take care of the knocked out people. Many of the victims died after they were...

The Russians claim a success for this operation, even though a Russian doctor said that 116 of 117 hostages died as a result of the nerve gas used. The other hostage died from a bullet wound. Was this a glaring example of Russian ineptness? Could the USA have handled things better?

How about looking at volume? This way you can weed out the pump and dump stocks.

I think the Rally Monkey has mystical powers. It can't be a coincidence that the hitting spree started when the Monkey came on the screen. Go Angels!!
