If you're upset that someone PM'ed you a proposition, you might find the reality of trading to be 10x more irritating, and eventually go insane. I recommend becoming a truck driver instead.

Why didn't you just buy it when you saw the pivot?

We are not impressed with your performance.

The man who "broke Atlantic City" wouldn't play until the casinos tilted the odds so far in his favor (due to their cash flow needs) that he knew he was almost certain to come out ahead. The same is true when leveraged price chasers get shaken out of their latest failed breakout buy and then...

I get most of my ideas from Gurus, though they never really spell out their recipe so I have to reverse engineer their trades. I've even got an idea or two from some ET educators, though they didn't work in live testing. My best trading system came about by accident after several ideas were...

This method of thinking may be holding u back..... :cool:

I'm no expert in spook psychology, but considering how much fear and impatience most humans trade with, I doubt anyone in the black building would make much of any winning strat they might happen upon. An holy grail algo would be another story, especially if it's just 8 lines of eazylanguage...

The latest Guru is a specialist in a certain type of low priced securities we can't discuss on here :eek: Just like when various nations spy on each other (and us), there are different ways to harness any nuggets. Some copy outright, others reverse engineer to understand the science behind...

I think the original poster at the original thread summed up "the obvious" several times: Buy Low Sell High / Sell High Buy Low (90% of the time) Buy High Sell Higher / Sell Low Buy Lower (10% of the time) It's no so obvious because human psychology is dominated by fear when money is...

With such an unlimited upside, you would think traders would be willing to risk a few thousands to find out who knows how to trade, and learn from them. :confused: This is becoming my experience with my latest Guru. Still, the few hundred bux bought me some first hand knowledge on which...

I've had the same experience with illiquid small cap stox. Later I saw the futility of buying breakouts in such noisy securities, and realized the money was in providing liquidity :eek: GBP looks like a prime candidate for this type of business, but weak hands are leveraged hands. You can't...

Do FX charts have volume?

Bit traderz, talk to me. It's printing below 450. Who is holding and who is short?

LOL They already tell me what to do. Just had my first Chinese boss during my latest engineering contract job in LA. He was very serious and never smiled, and always seemed to be worried about being embarrassed by not knowing what was going on (and as traders, we already know that fear...

"wizard training course"

+ to all the above. Small traders have the huge advantage of anonymity, especially if they scale in. :eek:

Way back in the days of the first dot com bubble, Lycos (remember them?) bought an entire car's worth of advertising on a pretty fast car that ended up leading for most of the race (Nascar). I was an excite user at the time, and it got me to try their search page once or twice. Whatever...

In a strong rising market that goal is easy. I did about 30% last year in small caps, reg T no leverage (taking profits way too soon, argh) just using subjective "buy the dip" methods on up trending stocks. Note the key phrases: "rising market" and "up trending stocks" - two conditions that...

At least some action finally. But DIA & SPY are making tempting IHS formations, while QQQ appears to be drawing a bull flag and TNA is unable to penetrate support. The technical side favors BTFD, but it all goes out the window if Russia defaults. :eek:

Had to close a few waterlogged penny stox this afternoon for slight losses and the platform worked great with limits at the top of the range. One filled in a couple seconds, the other two needed some time for the market to arrive. I really like how you can see a trade (price & size) list...
