Ahhh I wondered when someone might resort to the delicate matter of OPM and fees. The solution to your question is off my radar I am afraid, as it involves FED/ Banks/ Swaps and a myriad of tricks that I have never heard of. I am only a lowly sole Trader who would never give his money to a...

Precisely my point OT. A mass of capitial does not guarantee an outcome. regards f9

OT, I have always regarded everyone who works for me as special and deserving of respect, no matter what their position and relationship to me. Never has this worked more for me than since I have invested into Argentina and Brazil where my approach is not common to say the least. In...

Not at all, but in the context of this thread my advice is to build a good relationship with your Broker.He/she has a wealth of knowledge and it is your job to encourage them to share it. For almost all retail Traders lured into the endless wealth of trading it becomes a race, whether they...

This can work both ways OT. Too much account and too little brain power can result in death by a 1000 cuts. A smallish account can keep you sharp. An undisclosed problem of inadequate funding rears its ugly head when a newish Trader makes a giant boo boo and then presses the flatten...

pshinspections, So sorry but you do not add up to the sum of your parts. In short you are fishing, but you are using the bait and all you will snag are those trailing behind you. If you are trading 40 contracts you have reached a stage where you do not need to huddle with other Traders...

ah, "Turning $5K into $250 by year end" Of course I dare you and I am absolutely certain that you can do it. But why would you want to turn 5 thousand dollars into 250 dollars. Why not just gift 4750 dollars to charity. regards f9

le140, You have just described what should be happening. Sadly reality is a diffferent matter for US regards f9

Agree noise is an issue. I have just had my PC guy give my office a complete upgrade and it has left me with a great setup but raised the room temp and increased the dust attraction. the aircon part is easy regards f9

Well there you go. After twelve years of hard work and trial and error, not to mention trial by fire, I am right back where I started. regards f9
