    Any trading firms in Tampa or Orlando?

    Ill admit I kind of get a kick out of ragging on the place, but Im sure some people like it for reasons I do not understand. Its definitely not for me, I am far too restless and my demographic (young single professional) simply doesnt exist here. Stopping by stetson for some cultural...

    Any trading firms in Tampa or Orlando?

    haha I did live there, I do temporarily live here for the next week, my ex gf did a hellish commute to get her mba at stetson from downtown orlando, I had my 21st birthday there, my first kiss in the old "park" (alley with a tree in it) downtown, my high school band played at every now defunct...

    "Friday Paralysis"

    Haha, one of my first notes in my trading journal was "YOU DO NOT HAVE THE MIDAS TOUCH, ASSHOLE" I found myself after a few wins I would do something I regretted, thinking I had the hot hand or something. I have nowhere near R's experience, 2ish years intraday under my belt, but for a...

    Gold: same level despite Dow surging 50%

    Yes, but I believe the cash for gold business model is raping joe public who is in dire straights by paying him well below spot and making their money on the spread. I see that more as taking advantage of the average americans hard times than an opinion on gold. However they arent asking for...

    "Friday Paralysis"

    I reduce my size, take fewer trades, and move stops to break even (something I dont do) after 5 on thursday. Fridays always end up screwing my week, I even stopped trading them after a while. Although, last night I made .5 ticks when the same trade earlier in the week would have netted at...

    Japanese Exports Fall at Slower Pace as Slump Eases...

    during the bush years I used to love even watching british parliament work, being ashamed that our rouge leader sent his press secretary to decline to comment to the press. I find Obama slightly better in this regard but to a nearly insignificant marginal degree.

    What happens at the end of the year when 1.5 million people stop getting benefits?

    ROTrader, I feel you situation, I was in the same one but got a scholarship and decided to MBA it for the time being. Once I knew i was going back to school I even interviewed for a call center job to at least have a new experience and meet some new fake thugs and drug dealers in my spare time...

    nice trading game

    yea I got to see some of my flaws come out over and over, even had some insightful moments regarding price action and when to stay out. And I destroyed buy and hold for about 4 stocks before I quit, but I wonder if it was me matching patterns to what I know happened in the past and cutting...

    The Narrowing of the US Tax Base....

    This is not taxation without representation. You have elected representatives, they just arent doing what you would like them to do. I feel the same way but tea baggers are retarded.

    ES SELL 943 Objective 850 Stop 973

    This sure is an awful big wall of worry. I think we will take out some stops up here at very least on this leg, maybe get to 1060 eventually so GS can say they were trying to help us out with a freebee. I cant explain this market action but if we get over 1000 I may be in cash and puts...

    Entries: What Do You Fear More?

    Just curious. I like longs on a retracement to support in an uptrend, but when you enter on limits there is always the question of "are you going to get your fill?" I think the art is obviously in waiting for a reasonable fill but not necessarily being a perfectionist, and having rules...
