Mark Fisher book lays out details for calculating number line.

What scarifies prop firms are looking for? Can you elaborate.? I think it is a two way street. A prop firm looking for sacrifice only from incoming traders not going to get TOP TALENT and traders without anything to offer will keep on searching. Prop firms may get 1000 of resumes but fight...

Patriots Vs Ravens. No, instead of my usual Brady role, I will be playing role of Ray Lewis while on my coach watching the game. That HitnRun post has put me in Ray Lewis frame of mind (lol).

. Thats why some traders fail to see the Value of Mark Fisher book. They think if Fish ( Mr. Fisher is known by nickname on the floor ) has any good ideas/ method, why would he share it ? (lol) They think they have some strategy which a firm with Liquid capital and best minds do not...

Finally some one put my ideas about PERFECT PROP FIRM into words. Thanks. I would like to have talent like following at my ideal FIRM . Even KING OF TRADING like Adam in this example, need 14 months training. Adam and traders like him seems to rely heavily on INTUITION. I can not focus on 50-100...

I like what you have shared but you may have broken dreams of some of the traders who have bought into the REAL THING math regarding day trading. However, as we all know there are many ways to skin a cat. I wonder why traders at SMB capital or T3 live trade differently than REAL THING math...

When i see track record of the Real Thing vs Mark Fisher, i may pay attention. Until then " NEXT". That's not to say his post does not have some good points.

Revisiting a chart from 01-04-2012 when one of my favorite set up failure gave me a HEARTACHE.

Thanks for recommending " Why is the obvious not so obvious". It has good points. I trade Crude Oil futures. Mark fisher firm clears 1/3 rd of daily volume of crude oil futures. I do not want to ignore methods of a trading GENIUS like Mark Fisher. I will bet he knows a thing or two about...

Then he is a looser. Anyone who gives advice but do not share source of a method is a BIG LOOSER in my book. By source I mean a reference like a book, a paper etc.. Just saying I developed method on my own is BS. However, Real Thing makes some good points in his post.

Because he probably has not read "The logical trader " by Mark Fisher. In his forward of the book, Paul Tudor Jones wrote" Mark Fisher is the best pit trader he has ever seen in terms of sensing an order". Mark Fisher firm is www.mbfcc.com. Not sure why the link does not work from ET...

My advice will be to go through selection process with a reputable firm to test your ideas. One does not have to work at a prop firm but get DOSE OF REALITY and COMPETITION. I am copying case of a trader from SMB capital blog as an example. SMB capital equity traders trade stocks with a catalyst...

My post does not directly answer what author of this link asked. It does address some very important issues related to trading. I do not trade stocks. I trade crude oil futures. I did however took training for trading stocks from an excellent firm in NY- SMB capital. Trading stocks was...

1) Makes sense. Just clarify following. 2) When CL made monthly A down., you posted you will not touch cl. Is there a time filter for confirmation or not for weekly/monthly A up A down levels? for example for my daily OR , i have 45 minutes OR and time filter of 22 minutes. 2) from your...
