    How to Become a Registered Investment Advisor

    Your state will likely have a website that covers those issues. Most states follow the same requirements. The series 65 exam is not difficult. However, there is a considerable amount of paperwork, and the filing procedures are quite complicated. It is not an easy process unless you have a...

    Lost half of my years salary in a week!

    Actually, your analogy is closer to the truth of the law than you know. A whore who KNOWINGLY has aids and intentionally spreads it IS legally liable. That is in the casebooks. In the same way if a 'trader' is KNOWINGLY incompetent, fraudulently presents himself to be otherwise, and...

    Habeas Corpus is translated as 'You should have the body'. This thread may come to that. But at this point the more appropriate phrase would be: HABEAS PECUNIUM 'You should have the money.'

    You are obnoxious and boring. All the information in the post about your identity is publicly available on the internet. If you don't want your house displayed on Google Maps, then put a camouflage net over it.

    SSFs - Anyone trading them?

    Thanks. I had seen notices that fills are not even being guaranteed on some SSFs. Yet they continue to add them. I was also finding last year in a few tests that they were tracking the underlying in strange ways. So it seems an interesting concept that just isn't ready yet for prime...

    SSFs - Anyone trading them?

    Have you traded SSFs on stocks lately? Interested in any comments on spreads and liquidity, and how they are tracking the underlying.

    Leave the search for his identity with your JAG officer. Naval Intelligence can easily track him down with the information you already have at hand. And the less you say here, the better.

    By your logic, the victim of any con job or fraud should accept the loss as his failure and walk away? How stupid is that? And what does that say to the perp? "Oh, gosh, it was my fault. So good luck with your next victim."

    Amazing system but what to do?

    Sorry. I don't think that anyone reading your first post would have drawn that conclusion. :confused:

    Amazing system but what to do?

    If one had simply bought 2K shares of DIA on Monday of each week during the 12 months, and held the shares until Friday, this 'system' would have produced 72% winners and net gains of over $950. per trade. Sound good? Of course not. The system is completely market dependent.

    Amazing system but what to do?

    You've not traded this great system in real time until only recently (in a roaring bull market), and you've only backtested for a year with two trades a week? I hate to break this news to you, but in the past year you could have bought the DIA on just about any particular day, exercised a...

    Agreed. IMO, it is an insult to ET members to have moved this to Chit Chat. This is a thread that should be permanently posted at the head of Forex.

    IMO, there is a further issue which I feel is much more serious, and which would concern me more if I was MP, particularly when the military authorities look into the public record. That issue is wirefraud. Because he set himself up to be a professional and agreed to accept compensation...

    The Armed Forces have a very long arm when it comes to protecting the rights and property of people in uniform, and each branch of the service has a very large legal and investigative service that just loves an excuse to go to work against slimey civilians. The military doesn't pay squat...

    To all: I have had private conversations with acdspit00 and unless he is an excellent faker, is indeed a serviceman. As a Navy veteran myself, I have advised him to seek assistance from his JAG officer, as the military does not take kindly to the treatment he received. In that regard, I...

    If you sell 3 monitors and send that money to your client in Japan to help cover your losses, you'll still have one monitor left. And if you just turn that one off, the world will be a better place.

    Arizona Housing Market Goes POP!

    Ouch! Where are you located? Prices for good homes are about 250-300 sf here in Scottsdale, and I thought we were high.

    Honest People in a Dishonest Business

    One problem is that these new 'traders' don't have easy access to independent information to hear the other side of the story. Despite the fact that Forex sites are filled with risk disclosures, they're ignored. Even here, sad to say, where you would think experienced traders would provide...

    If ever there were famous last words spoken by every trader who has busted....these are them! Whatever you don't think will happen, will happen. Anyone who provides advice should know that. Anyone with any experience who is still alive in the markets knows that.

    Traders looking for someone to handle their portfolio often ignore a very important aspect of trading. There is a very wide gap between profiting for yourself, and trading OPM. Those who have managed to survive and overcome emotional obstacles in their own trading, will usually find another...
