    Adrienne Toghraie coaching ?

    Adrienne doesn't trade. (She claimed to have traded some futures in the past.) She is a trader shrink. She is fully occupied helping successful traders to increase their gain 10 fold, then a hundred fold. :D

    How are laptops for trading?

    I have a HP dv9730us laptop too. Very bad experience. Within a year sent back for 2 repairs: 1) Disk drive problem. 2) Disk drive problem plus motherboard overheating. Now I (1.5 year into it) problem #3 - the LCD screen displaying weird color. In general: using laptop to trade should...

    Education Resources? Train Someone To Trade!

    Thank goodness for that! Imagine if all market participants are successful, who will be gaining? This game can only have one outcome: the majority of the population gives money to the minority of the population. Like... we all can have that choice? There are many 1/2 million dollar...

    Do you guys think opening an hour earlier would effect west coast traders mentally?

    LOL! I did trade the US markets from Hong Kong for 3 weeks during a visit once. Similar hours. Starting at 10:30 pm and ending at 5:00 am. But... I am a nightowl... that just fit me well. Maybe I will move there someday to live and trade the US markets. (Or Malaysia or Indonesia)... no...

    Do you guys think opening an hour earlier would effect west coast traders mentally?

    They trade the Nikkei and Hang Seng. :D Well... you do whatever it takes. If the job requires getting up at 4am, you just suck it up and do it. There is always some aspects of a job that one doesn't like.

    It looks like a glorified TV. Maybe for computer users with bad eye sights.

    leaving a paying job to day trade-experienced day traders please help

    I would not recommend trading a foreign market for a beginner. The time differential may be attractive and the OP can keep his/her current job while trading a market full-time. But these foreign markets are driven by their own local factors as well as the global markets. Sometimes the Hang...

    leaving a paying job to day trade-experienced day traders please help

    The problem with that kind of approach: you may be thinking of scalping 10 cents on a 4000 shares to make $400. And you one day might be able to do it 5 to 6 times and do really well. Then you get in another trade... that looks just like another wonderful scalping opportunity... but it...

    leaving a paying job to day trade-experienced day traders please help

    In this day and age, charging $100 for commission each way is a ripoff. It is higher than the deep-discount broker rate IN 1994 (when I started)! Today I pay $3.50 on equity trades regardless of size using RealTick. Other online brokers charge something like from $4 to $10 a trade. Seems...

    How do I start a day trading company!

    By "need 100k to start a second company", did you mean needing $100,000 to start your company? I think the trading business is one of the most flexible businesses. Because the main factor in conducting this business is you. Your brain. That's it. You may or may not need staff. You may or...

    How do I start a day trading company!

    Hi NoD: From the information I gathered, and this is the way I did my tax return as a trader: File trading expenses in Schedule C. File trading gain/loss in Schedule D. You will not need to pay self-employment tax. But I think it does have a higher chance of triggering an IRS audit...

    Abby Joseph Cohen says SP may hit 1100 this year

    You counted 1982 twice. Is there any reason you like that year so much? Perhaps the high interest rate during the Reagan years?

    Dell T3500

    In this day and age, I think in the hardware world planning for a 5-year out is a bit far. I think the IT department of most large corporations wouldn't wait that long to refresh their inventory. 3 years, perhaps. Of course now we are in a bad economy, that may change. There is always this...
