    TradeStation out this AM!!!

    Finally back up. Now the QM data is WAY behind. Good luck trading off of that! Does TS understand how important charting is? What a joke.

    Newbie Questions

    If you want the best 'bang for your buck' my reco is futures. For the active trader, I'd say futures provide many benefits over ETF's - for active trading purposes.

    Will they hire me?

    Could not have said it better myself. I was a professional telemarketer, aka salesman, aka broker and would never go back. I like working for myself!

    Just curious - has anyone here traded the VIX futures? Any feedback would be great. Also, what website(s) are good to reference about these?

    Computer Spyware, Virus Scanner, etc.- which ones?

    Recently our business has received some emails with viruses attached to it. Apparently we are on someone's list. Anyways, what programs would our resident computer tech's on the board recommend to eliminate and catch in real time Spyware, Viruses, Etc.? And, how much is too little? How...

    Primerica

    MORE lucrative than a true planner? It's not even close. I was a broker/planner at a major firm and Primerica is a joke. HOWEVER, their typical client is NOT a client that serious brokers/planners go after. In theory they have a niche there, but the way it is set up - MLM, Pyramid, etc. - is a...

    e-mini S&P Daytrading Journal

    Jimmy - I basically thought what you put together, but I was really surprised at "SmartStart". Ouch... I can do that myself, I don't need to pay for that! :D Perhaps the results will change b/c if you look at the rockwell website, the equity curve sure looks great! Thanks for the posts. I...

    e-mini S&P Daytrading Journal

    Ben - thanks for the reply. I assumed that if you are going to post updates at ET, then members of ET can ask questions here. I had another question that was not answered - would you say the gains/losses since you've posted are typical? Thanks.

    Fantasy Football - anyone interested?

    whiners - I would prefer a free, yahoo league, with auto-draft. As for money, I suppose we can do something but I do not want to be in charge of that.

    Pay for profit - emini learning rooms?

    Good - I would agree with you there; however, you attacked my post pretty agressively and when I asked for you to substantiate your post, you had nothing. So, we both basically did the same thing - had an opinion, talked to the 'experts' and ended up with different results. This should not...

    Pay for profit - emini learning rooms?

    Good - please provide links to your sources of the NFA/CFTC that state they are not looking at chat room and chat room providers. Since my posts are not relevant w/o links (based on your post), it should only be fair that you then provide your links. So, please back up your information or noone...

    Pay for profit - emini learning rooms?

    I NEVER said there was a limit as too how many accounts you can trade. I did say if it was over 15 then you need to register as a CTA. Take the time to read the posts. Thanks.

    Pay for profit - emini learning rooms?

    Good - take the time to reread my posts where I made it clear this was MY opinion based on the information that I gathered. I have no desire nor the time to deal with the name calling that seems to inevitably end up in ET threads. Take a look at the original post - the poster wanted to know...

    Fantasy Football - anyone interested?

    Pabst - if there's enough interest (we only need around 8 teams really) I'll put one together. As for Morgan, yeah.... ummmm.... sorry about that. He didn't quite work out here.

    Fantasy Football - anyone interested?

    Anyone interested in starting an ET fantasy football league? Seeing that there are some competitive people here, it could be fun. Just leave a post here if interested and if the interest is there, I will start one up. Go Browns!

    Pay for profit - emini learning rooms?

    Good - my understanding is it's simply number of accounts, regardless of size. HOWEVER, CONTACT THE NFA DIRECTLY. They are very helpful there and/or consult an attorney. In my opinion, you do NOT want to be operating under the incorrect info b/c it could be very costly.

    Pay for profit - emini learning rooms?

    surf - the source is me. :D I know that will not suffice or be what you were looking for, but based on personal experience I can confidently say that the CFTC is reviewing chat rooms and how they operate under the current structure.

    Pay for profit - emini learning rooms?

    good - 15 accounts and below, you do not have to register as a CTA. Over 15 and you need to register as a CTA. Hedge funds are a different ball game.
