    There's so much bs and misinformation surrounding trader taxation and formation. The only potential advantage and its really not an advantage in filling a llc is writing off your health ins and a retirement plan.

    Chances of tax being passed at dow 7k zero

    No way in hell will they pass any type of tax on trades at dow 7k. Now when the mkt recovers in the years to come it could happen. Unfortunately with huge loses for most people there's a lot of bitterness toward wall street so this tax could happen in the future.

    Characteristics of a Successful Trader

    Dustin is 100% correct. After getting stale trading remote for years i joined a prop shop were the top 10 guys make 10k-300k each and every day.Its simply motivating to watch the top guy throw down 50k min almost every day no matter if the markets flat. It shows you the possibilities.
