    Jesse Livermore

    Yes opiate do affect judgement. I can tell you first hand. Had occasion to administer a syrette of morphine to my thigh during military service (gunshot to the shoulder). About 15 seconds later I was ready to go. You know you are hurt, but you don't give a damn. Apparently all opiates have that...

    Are there any mentors out there?

    Okay, I have one comment and thats it. Just remembering my own experience I know how important it is to have a good mentor to learn from. What I have to add is this; If we are talking about options, the "student" has to have the basics (all of them) down. You can't learn to play poker...

    Jesse Livermore

    Pabst: I have seen a few great talents in my life. Most were involved in sports. What concerned me was one thing that all of them had in common. They all acted as though they were entitled to some special leeway in life, that "the rules" didn't apply to them. As a result the arc of their...

    For all of the Israel haters...

    I don't think of ethnic origin as a reason to "hate" per se. I notice however that certain ethnic groups have similarities. For instance, Jews and Italians seem to share the same penchant for melodramatic scream and yelling. They also (at least my family members) seem willing to discuss...

    I told you there was a pony in there somewhere.:D Actually I have seen a couple of Mark's trading records. Not bad. The question is can he (or anyone teach) you now to get with the flow. That is a hard one to answer. and I have always wondered why someone like Mark would market any...

    Jesse Livermore

    See the problem here from my point of view is that you have mythologized Mr. Livermore's life. Apparently you have decided to overlook his alcoholism, his terrible relationships with his wives and his children and his suicide, and why...because as you put it he has made millions of dollars...

    The general rule that I find most valuable is never lose more than you made the previous day.

    Jesse Livermore

    As I have mentioned, you don't know me. My financial condition is none of your business. Again you post without thinking about the content of your post. Having worked most of my life for people of high net worth I can assure you that they do not disclose their finances to anyone without a...

    Sporadic Connectivity @ eSignal

    Here's a good one. I have Esignal up and am in a trade and then I get a screen that "informs me" that my password is incorrect. I have had the program up for hours now. Suddenly the program says, incorrect password and stops the data. I shut down and re-start and NOW I have a big gap in my...

    If you were assembling a trading room and you only could choose from ET's illustrious

    Michael: There are plenty of good resources here both in terms of information and people. The value you get from these resources depends on YOU. How you approach the work (if you work at it at all) and how you approach people. If there is any criticsm to level at ET members it relates...

    "Why won't God heal amputees?"

    Why won't God give you folks some common sense? Why is that God? You're screwing with me right? Here I am in this slag pit of mediocrity and you won't give any of these hosers a lick of common sense. You're having a great old time up there laughing at this aren't you..... Hey I don't blame...

    Jesse Livermore

    You were doing wonderfully well until this unfortunate post. As was said in a movie script...."You don't know me" Yet you comment as though you were my banker. Suggest you contain your comments to a subject you have certain knowledge of. Thank you Steve

    Greatest Daytrader(s) in the world

    yes I have. Couple of folks I know have done it. One (male) started a second career and made that kind of jump. Another (female) did it and it was easy to understand. She was a divorced mother of two. She had the drive and the discipline to pay attention, learn and stick to a good plan. Took her...
