Knowing we do not understand something is often a good start toward possible understanding. As for the rest of it, you are off base and things are not the same everywhere (markets and their rules), if being a longterm winner is the goal. Heck, things that worked 10 years ago may not even work...

Try to find someone who currently makes a living doing what you are trying to do. Not being able to find one may be a bad sign. Found one? See if they will chat with you, for starters. What worked a long time ago often does not work now. Most gurus-for-hire are hustlers who used to win or...

Looking at your posts, I see you are a sincere searcher for the truth and that you ask good questions. Please keep an open mind to smart posts and replies that make you feel uneasy. I especially suggest thinking about the reply given by trainer, as well as the lack of Yes replies from ET...

Thank you for your well though out reply.

Lol. Beat wishes.

I am predicting a low number, if any, of credible "Yes" replies. However, I am here to learn and will carefully study each reply. Thank you.

Looking forward to hearing more on this.

What is wrong with using/ working with the retail firm, IB, Interactive Brokers? Serrious question. Obviously, having a good deal with successful HFT firms wold be fabulous but I do not see how that would be possible.

And I have a great bridge in Brooklyn to sell. PM me for details. You are on the wrong path. Please read my post that is above this one.

Yes. They are hat traders!

A number of name firms and big money backers disagree. Susquehanna International, for one, teaches poker to its traders and has them play. Being a winning poker player is a plus on a resume, as well. At SIG, general gambling theory is also taught and odd projects like sending blackjack teams...

As I start to read the replies, I am shocked and realize I would be responding to every fourth well meaning post with things like: Horrible advice. Don't do that. Follow what this one says if you want to blow up time and money, etc. So.... Looking for a winning trader as a mentor is the right...

Most everyone beats demos that are offered to the public, for the obvious reasons. See my recommendation in the post following this.

Bad advice. Very bad advice. *see my answer two posts down.
