One of the few times I've agreed 100% with Daniel. :)

Huios, Have you tried using the OCA (one cancels all) order? I have not used it, but it looks like you could have both your stop and profit target orders in at the same time, and when one is triggered the other will be cancelled automatically. "Question: If she goes my way, can I just...

This is totally off-topic, but as an MK (missionary's kid) I find that statement hilarious as the profession includes neither money, respect, nor public adulation. A different career choice would be necessary. :) To get back to the matter at hand, people just need to realize that...

If you like it then use the software...I'm not your mother. And how many times do I have to say my statements are regarding the whole universe of marketed holy grails, not just yours? When I say most people never make money with them, I am talking about all of them...I know of no one...

Whatever dude. I didn't say that there is no system that consistently wins...I said that I have never found a system SOLD TO THE PUBLIC that consistenly wins. All profitable traders have a system in one form or another...they just don't sell it. I am not naming WizeTrade specifically, nor...

lol see pm

Great, finally some capitulation...er, oh wait...that's copulation...nevermind...carry on.

Thanks for the complement Anchor, but I'm nobody special...just a guy trying to live the dream like everyone else here. I've just taken a few bumps along the way that might have been saved if someone had told me this stuff when I started out. And Brandon is right...in all my system testing...

lol Anchor. I'm going to assume the question is legitimate, regardless of whether or not CuteGirl is since I see it come up on a lot of threads. The problem a lot of new traders have is in understanding the differences between trading and careers you go to school/college for. To become a...

While I agree that it would make it harder to have multiple accounts, it is a pain for all of us legitimate members who use hotmail. I don't give out my isp email to anyone other than family because I don't want junk in it. I use my hotmail account for all other things. That way, if my email...

I use TS 2000i now but have also used TS6. I left TS6 because of the data limitations. I was only able to go back a year of intraday futures data and much less on other data such as ADV and DECL. Maybe they have changed this (its been several months since I dropped them), but to me, what good...

Dustin once had people send their pics and he posted them on his website. Here is that thread: http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=3024 And the website: http://www.iwinfree.com/screen.htm

It seems to work surprisingly well for Praetorian...:)

I have to admit, I've been tempted more than once to buy that GatorGrip ratchet set...oh, wait, it just SEEMS like that commercial is 30 minutes long...

I first read this awhile back in a book by Larry Williams. I'm not sure who said it originally, but it made a lot of sense to me. I have used it many times when explaining to non-traders (mainly family members) why I'm not a lunatic.

Haha...good topic. My first trade was in futures options of all things. I had scraped enough together for the minimum to open an account with Lind-Waldock ($5k). Since I couldn't afford the S&P at the time (big contract, $15k margin then I think) I figured I could play the options. I mean...

I don't know, that one looks like a keeper... And for only $6 more, Amazon will throw in "A Magical Day With Matisse". Hard to pass that up.

Thanks darkhorse. Oh well, I was hoping for a good scathing read, lol. Maybe I'll just read this one over a latte at Barnes and Noble...that's what I do with most trading books now anyhow.

Anyone know the name of this book? I heard about it too and wondered if it ever actually got published. Looks like it would be a fun read.
