    Trading while having a job.

    I hate the words "paper trading". In the old days...people would literally write down their pretend trades on "paper" with a pen or pencil and then call it "paper trading". The word or phrase now is "simulator trading" and it has a few purposes: 1) Assuming your trade method is...

    Trading as a small business

    My guess is that ccrjr1 has another source of income that's his primary source of income and its currently supporting him (paying for his living expenses)...allowing him to not need to draw a salary from his business on such a small 5 figure trading capital as a part-time trader. Another...

    Sonny2010, You trading from home or from work ? If trading from home...you alone in the house by the time the afternoon trading session begins ? I've met others like you that are consistently profitable in the a.m. and then consistently not profitable in the p.m. along with the fact that...

    trading bar by bar......an experiment

    I thought you were going to say you took 6 months off from trading to design a trade method and then backtest it to determine if its profitable or not profitable. Instead, you played golf and discovered in your mind that there's a connection between golf & trading and now you've discover that...

    Demoralized. Is 14 losses in a row normal?

    You've left out so much critical information. :rolleyes: For example, is your trade method backtested and was it simulated traded ? If so, you'll already know then if losing 14 consecutive trades is the worst case scenario via your backtest results and simulated trading results prior to such...

    Important times during a trading day

    It really on where you're located and/or what times you're available to trade. Regardless, just find a useful online financial market international calendar...it will tell you key times of schedule market events. Also, find a site that list the opening/closure of other key exchanges that's...

    Made a lot of progress, but feel like there's so much more to go...

    trader99, Why you keep switching assets after you start making money ??? You battle hard to start making money in stocks including getting to the point that you can trade it with size and its easy. Oddly, you didn't just stick with that. Next, you moved into Futures and it was bad but now...

    dowjones and nasdaq index

    You just learned that global markets are interconnected and that you need to pay attention to the ECB/IMF out of Europe in the early market session before the U.S. markets (DowJones/S&P/Nasdaq) open for clues especially when the news out of Europe is important. Yet, its only important if you...

    Credit score fanatics in the 800 Club" compete for top FICO scores

    Same here (score shot up) but about 10 years later...it happen again and my score plunged. :( The 2nd time, I just didn't care anymore because I was living in another country by that time. wrbtrader

    Record 7 million are 3 months behind on their car payments

    Yeah, I understand that the auto industry is an important part of our economy and economic development especially more in the futures when electric cars take the center stage. wrbtrader

    Record 7 million are 3 months behind on their car payments

    With that many (7 million car owners deliquent)...I don't recommend anyone to buy a car unless they can pay cash (one paynment) and if they can't do that... Buy a used car instead (much cheaper) but still only pay cash. There's just too many people out their with good jobs but struggling to pay...

    Does a disciplined trader smoke weed (?)

    Couldn't the OP just compare his trade results when he's high versus his trade results when he's "not" high ? Also, he states he only does it once or twice per week but does not state if he's doing such before, during or after trading nor does he mention his trading results when he does such...

    Does a disciplined trader smoke weed (?)

    I strongly believe a joint is different than a stogie in size and amount of THC...a joint is smaller in both categories (size & THC). I described the bus driver at the winter festival smoking a "stogie" with children nearby. It was the biggest stogie I have ever seen and the pot odor was the...

    Does a disciplined trader smoke weed (?)

    Actually, there weren't any public drinkers around the children nor can children get drunk if the person next to them is drinking. On the flip side, I have seen someone get high in the presence of second hand marijuana smoke...I think its refer to as "contact smoke". To be more precise, I've...

    Making $1 bln from trading with no outside investors (Part 2)

    My mom's financial advisor once won 15k in the lottery. If the OP was a journalist for the local newspaper in her city...the headline news would have been "Trader wins 15k in the lottery" instead of "Financial Advisor wins 15k in the lottery". Therefore, the issue is not about more money...
