ET not suitable for a client base...never has been although the naive will attempt to use it as such. Yet, the comment that "newbies so moldable preferred" sounds similar to a clergyman asking naive girls to come to the office in the back of the church. :rolleyes: wrbtrader

I use an alarm clock on the night stand next to my bed when I need to be awaken to trade. Yet, the kids usually beats the alarm clock by about 5 - 15mins. The lazy aspect is to look for someone outside of your own home to wake you up. :p Everything else you mentioned to be alerted about can be...

What prevents you from getting your own house, condo or apartment or whatever ? If you have a separation issue from your parent...get a place nearby (walking distance)...visit whenever you feel like it. Geeesh, my parents were annoying too. As soon as I turn 18 years of age...I took my...

It's not "only" about the TA being used...it's equally about the trader using the TA within a trading plan that consists of other variables just as equally important (e.g. risk management, position size management, trade environment, trade experience and so on). That's what trading is part art...

Close the trade if you need advice from strangers. Yet, I suspect the only advice you want is for some stranger to tell you how to get out of the trade at a profit. Its very strange you want strangers to give you trade advice when you have provided NO INFO about the details of the trade... No...

Investment purposes only...no trading in and out. Yet, if you need advice from a forum for "trade decisions"...stay away from the markets or go find an alert service so that you can hold someone accountable. wrbtrader

I've never heard of any particular bank requiring $100mm for an individual retail trader to open an account with them. In contrast, I have heard of banks requiring > $100millions to open commerical business or institutional business that trades on the behalf of pension plans, insurance...

A relative that's an institutional trader once stated he would be impressed by a retail trader that had a 5mil trading account. In contrast, a broker once stated he would be impressed by a retail trader with a 1mil trading account. Yet someone else that's different...in another country and a...

Why start a thread title as Trading is easy and then go on with a complex price action analysis of hindsight market to then say the following quote below... Which one is the typo error ??? :rolleyes: Simply, is trading easy or not easy or why does it matter for you ??? Regardless, everybody...

Develop you trade method and then find someone to trade with in the Joliet area. Trading with another person (in person) in the same home office may be just as helpful as using a mentor even though the other person in the office is not there to mentor you. Its just a way to help yourself into...

As explained but I will state it differently because you don't get it. You gave the forum the "wrong impression" that you were a fund manager. That is why your thread was moved here into the Professional Trading section. As long as your thread remains here and your reluctance to notify ET...

With IB (you stated your portfolio was with IB) and I believe you stated the old Chinese man open an IB account and then gave you the password... Those people you mention that manage 10k or 100m...must check the box that they are professional to do such. If they don't...its just a personal...

You should then send Baron a quick private message to move your thread from the Professional Trading section due to the fact you're not managing a fund and you're not a fund manger or anything near such. Let Baron decide where to then move your thread considering it does not qualify to be in...

Someone in the feedback section down at the bottom of this forum once said that when things get "slow" (page counts/views) here at ET... Threads like "TA" and strange trading actions type of threads pop up out of nowhere via new members with very low post counts. In fact, specifically stated he...
