Geez, I need to post more. I just looked at your and Lucrum's numbers and I am way behind.:D

Right, and I guess you think everything would change without knowing. It may, but it doesn't have to would be my point. Whatever, I have enjoyed the site for many years at this point, but if it changed to the point I didn't like it anymore, so be it. Maybe it is a business opportunity. I preach...

I have to admit I assumed your post was meant to be insulting, and I responded in like manner. I just simply was asking what the profit number added up for the trade presented, not what you make per day. I thought I was clear in my question, but I guess not.

I guess I don't get why if it were sold people would leave. I guess if rules and other things changed people might, but just because it was sold? Been here awhile, and probably longer than my ID indicates, and there have been ups and downs like anything, but no reason to run away, and what are...

I guess it must be me, as I just am not following your train of thought. To me pts = points, and whatever the abbreviation for ticks, and I was trying to clarify if you were giving me a mildly cryptic answer. Again, I'm not looking for an arguement, just what others see as the profit. I've done...

Is that your answer? Do you mean 3 pts, or 3 ticks times 2 contracts, and do you actually know the difference?

I ask for input, as I think I have lost all math skills based on what my broker is telling me my profit is for an equity trade compared to my calulations. Bought 1000 $23.49 Bought 1000 $23.39 Bought 1000 $23.25 Sold 50 $23.56 Sold 2950 $23.40 The question is not about the...

Mav, the funny part, to me anyway, is that most professional jobs require a time and education commitment. I am the first to admit I got hooked on how easy it was when tech was booming, and you bought and sold 5 minutes later with a stupid profit. Later I took a bath in poop, like most who had...

Go Pack!....Oh Fu**, nevermind. Yea Rg looked good. Thank you God for another football season!!! Badgers and Packers lose, but Gophers and Notre Dame win. Good to have multiple teams on weekends like this one. I do have to say, at least in the Packer game, the replacement refs really do...

Yep! Or get a job at a firm and spend years trying to work your way up. Or spend $50,000 + getting a masters or phd and be one of the top students in your class and then maybe get a job with a firm. If you don't treat it like gambling, but rather a job and learning experience you might get...

It seems like their website is pretty clear on what they are, offer and the terms. I don't see where they keep charging your credit card if you fail or simply decide it won't work. You make the call to keep trying or not, and if you are successful the terms are clear. As has been pointed out a...

I'll 3rd that :) Just what the court system needs another useless lawsuit. I'd call him back and tell him where to stick his little cry baby rant, and that he should hope no one ever calls asking for a recommendation as you will play the message for them. Geez, when I worked at an airline...

Oh, dang, I realize as I am posting I miss read the title of the thread. I thoought it said" 90% urinate". I was going to say we all urinate, but then realized the title. Then I realized most of us traders actually deficate, out of our mouths, about how well we do. Then it made sense. You meant...

I have heard again the amount of debt, and compared to various states here it is laughable. I would say quit buying mindless news stories and understand the numbers and realize in what bad shape economically our states are in compared to an entire country. The average US citizen needs to get a...

Wow, saw both the goofs today for the first time in a long time. Gaytees, and barbie hair ponytails. I guess there is a reason one got cut from playing pro football. What tools.

Just curious which is more important to the US? Is Greece, Spain, or Italy, or even all three more important to the US economy than the total financial mess that is California, or a combination of finances in a few other US states? I think the old comparison is that California has roughly the...

Actually evolution would be shit bags getting destroyed, ie Obama Bin Laden...no longer exists, the crap that Russia was...no longer...Putin will be put to an end...Sadam..ooops gone. Are we perfect...hell no, but we do still have some control. I live for the day politicians are back to being...

I guess I don't spend enough time creating excuses. I trade to make money. I pay for my family, donate to various charities, etc. But I have to admit I laugh at every asshole who tries to imagine they are doing God's work. Mother Teresa did God's work, Quite a few others who gave completely of...

I guess my 16 year old should be the highest scoring Mensa member, but he eats candy and crap to the extreme. I actually do recognize he needs to stop, but affecting his brain to the point of being an idiot? He is in every AP class, and Advanced class offered. Maybe he would be done with college...

Yea, they didn't charge, and were very successful for a few years. Midwest Airlines. Originally a subsidary of Kimberly Clark and had a sucessful IPO. Premium product at a premium price, until it didn't work. And yes, the problem now is these airlines have ticket prices at a discount, and are...
