oh, you sure nailed me... when i started the one a long time ago, it was because i knew my destruction was coming. lol but then i was unexpectedly able to sell something, so i had a few more dollars to play with (but still not much at all) and could delay the inevitable destruction. it...

point of this thread? well, not too long ago, i made a thread about my devastation. so i wanted to announce that i'm launching a comeback and tell how i'm going to do it. also, i had a few questions about prop trading at the very end of my first post.

HAHA true, but... what a worthless post (by you, also)

that's funny... GO, JACK!! (and me) :)

yes, i've seen the movie. i know Gordon Gekko wasn't a real trader. that is not why i chose the name. as viewed by other people (that did not know what he really did), he was viewed as someone who understood the markets and knew how to make money with them. that is why i chose the name. you...

NihabaAshi, thx for replying, but i'm not really looking for too much help. yes, i will still have questions sometimes, but i'm not looking for a whole new style or anything. there are only a few individuals on ET that i identify with, am confident in their ability, and trust. i'm not going...

LOL!! it was just for laughs... p.s. there really was a great trade opportunity.....

Gordon Gekko did. :p See my post here: http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=279906#post279906 p.s. NO, i am NOT all about predictions. I just saw an opportunity for a good trade.

for the record, my call was just for fun. i am NOT someone who is all about predicting.

i AM going to be THE MAN! i AM THE MAN now!!

since you took the time to reply to me, i really do want to take the time to answer your questions. however, when it comes to how i actually trade, i am not going to post that here. if i did explain exactly what i do and what i'm working on, i'm pretty sure it would blow most people away. i am...

guys, thanks for the advice. i just want to say a couple things. my plan IS to get a job. i did say that in my first post. i'm just ALSO going to sell the car. i don't need a $16k+ car right now. the money could be used in better ways. i can trade the mornings til noon EST and then go to...

First of all, don't read too much into this thread title. To me, Gordon Gekko just symbolizes a successful man of the markets. I've been thinking lately about how I am going to come back from my devastation and I have a plan. I looked up how much my 100% paid for car sells for used and some...

hehe.. i'm very confident aliens exist all over the universe (if we can exist here, why would i say it can't happen somewhere else?), however, i don't believe aliens have come to earth while humans have been here. interesting point: i've read that the earth is relatively young compared to...

yeah, i'm doing this now for the current day's data. but isn't it true i can't use DDE for historical data? for example, say i use DDE to get today's open in excel. if i want the previous 2 day's closing prices, i can't use DDE for that, right? i will need to use ActiveX for that in 7.4 when...

yeah, sorry.. i meant to say ActiveX, not API; i just mixed them up. anyway, how difficult will it be to do something like getting yesterday's closing price into a cell in excel? i don't need to do anything complicated, but i'm not really much of a programmer. also, i already have the 7.4...
