I plan to remove the position before 215 and then reevaluate. Just looked at the calendar and it confuses me. What will happen at 215 today? Seems from the calendar that there is no statement, no press release, no information will flow out at 215 today! Am I reading it correct...

Stopped half at 1406 yesterday, added again at 1410.25 today for full long position. Stop 1401.

In my journal, I have shared way way more about my own trading than what I have asked anyone else. I fail to see what is wrong about asking if someone is profitable or not or how many cars he is trading! In a bank or a trading firm, then also everyone knows everyone's else PL. Even on ET, we...

Hi There, Thanks for the excellent history. Traders with experience like you are valuable on this board. I hope my other post to ammo will help clarify why I asked you this question. Cheers.

With experience, I have grown extremely skeptical of most people's ability on ET to make consistent money. I have also realized that a lot of guys on ET are very young (college students) who really have no bankroll at all. Also there are a lot of paper traders here. When I started using ET, I...

Spectre, You seem to have a good knowledge overall. Curious, how much money did you make in 2010, 2011 and 2012? Are you profitable or do you also fall among the 95% who think they can make money but are still to make any real money?

smoker, One of the very balanced and useful posts that I read in a long time. Sure your postings are very few since 2006 when you joined this site, but its refreshing and useful to read it. Thanks.

Hi, I was hoping you would see this thread and be kind enough to respond. Thanks for detailed clarification. Cheers.

much better entry point for a long trade

I am not asking this question because I want to set up a fund. lol. Its just that a buddy of mine wanted my opinion on this question and I couldn't find anything concrete. So, I posted this query here to see if I can get some concrete info.

Thanks everyone for good wishes. I raised it from friends/family and job. There are no goals other than the focus on controlling the risk. Also, I guess with this much money, I am no more under-capitalized. On these 2 counts, it is an improvement over the last attempt.

Is it legally possible to accept money from investors based outside of US to invest in a Delaware, US based LP, as limited partners? Or is there a law that says only US resident investors can become limited partners in a US based LP? I vaguely remember reading somewhere that to accept non US...

I AM BACK after a break of 5 months! There will be periodic withdrawals. Starting Capital 26,000 USD. Profits for this week 1000. Ending capital 27,000 USD. Will post detailed stats from next week. I have become very busy over the last few months, so I will sparingly answer questions. Please...

My PL for today - not a sim combine lol. +1,605.

This is a stage where I hope to reach one day - when you are forced to wire out funds because you are hitting capacity. What do you trade and what kind of capacity restrictions do you face? What kind of size are you moving, wherein you have to seriously take liquidity into account? How much...

Nice precision-trading Handle! I have been away from ET for over a month, but will keenly follow your posts on this journal going forward.
