Hi hippie, When I as developing my system I had insomnia and sleep problems that made it difficult for me focus for the entire day. So to counter that I created what I call time factor strategies. If you look through my journals you will see that I only trade at most 2 hours per day. While I...

Yeah, I can understand why you and most people would think it seem like luck. So here's my story on what happened: Yes, I'm aware that it could be seen as just pure luck. If you're a day trader, then you would know that there's more to trading then just having a good system. That psychology...

My current job barely pays enough to cover my expenses and there is very little job openings where I'm living. I was lucky to had even found this job. The economic climate today is very different from the 1980's and 1990's. Those two decades had a very strong economic expansion and one of the...

just fyi, I'm in need of funds to trade and am considering selling my trading secrets to anyone who is interested.

I cheated and did another trade in sim before heading to work. Had another positive day again.

Just a newbie here. I like this thread.

There's something about you that I like for some reason. I honestly think you're a good guy. So now do you understand why I was ignoring your advice early on? Especially about sim trading? With six years of prior experience in trading, I can tell what kind of advice I'm being given. I think you...

Hi neveral0ne, It's been a day, what happened? How did this trade worked out for you? Instead of posting trades after the facts, why don't you just post your daily p/l statements?

P/L for today on sim. I only did one small trade.

http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?threadid=73059 This guy could've saved a lot of time if he had just created a poll. For the poll answer how long total from when you first got involved with trading to when you started becoming profitable. If you still haven't figured it out, just...

My p/l today in simulation. I'm using the ThinkorSwim platform.

Some more: You need money to be a trader. You need money to be a player. The 80-20 rule. 20% of traders are taking home 80% of the money. 20% of men are screwing 80% of the women. Markets are only irrational if you don't understand how they work. Women are only irrational if you...

I'm on a time out from trading and am kind of bored so I thought I'll create this thread and see how it goes. I'll start first. How is trading a lot like dating? If you miss a trade, there's always another one around the corner. If you get rejected by a girl, there's always another one...

Seriously, all you have to do is ask a moderator to modify the poll. I was only interested in the age 20-30 range result, otherwise I would've asked.

I was unaware that the OP didn't include a category for 30-40.

bumping for more data

How would contacting the company called Google help? I'm more interested in stories about the average retail daytraders. From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victor_Niederhoffer: I guess this confirms there's something supernatural about the number 27.

I would like to hear some of these examples you speak of.
