    How many of you save anything?

    Well first off you must have legal tax avoidance in place. You need a modicum of starting capital. And next you do not withdraw from your capital and gains. This is the one big difference that makes the difference. 'Trading for a living' as it is humorously called is a treadmill .. most...

    Example Trading System

    OK is any further real discussion wanted? Lets find out. You will have seen some of my approach in other posts. I cannot say whether any useful debate will ensue. I will try with a very small dose. I will try a starting concept. It will be completely meaningless if I don't say what I'm...

    Social Influences of Being A Trader

    traderNik you miss the point .. as usual. Why don't you just stay and troll in Chit Chat where you already put a lot of your stuff? Suggestion: you need to calm down f**kface and get a life. :D

    Example Trading System

    Funny you should say that .. you do have to be full of what you know about the market you trade in if you want to start and win. The horsesh*t and meaningless jacking around I leave to you. Merry Christmas pal. :)

    Social Influences of Being A Trader

    Well sure Ling Ping King. But bottom line: do what you have to do. Give and do whatever it takes to know your market. Make a killing; accumulate a fortune. Then play Mr Big and donate to and help your dumb community. Everyone just loves a winner. Merry Christmas. :)

    Christmas File

    Merry Xmas everyone. Main trading thought if you want to become a winner in 2006: do what most do not do - assemble all the data, study and analyze your market so thoroughly and set up a successful trading model for winning daily. :)

    Example Trading System

    Well as I've noted it is a "good, albeit a primitively understood, idea" in the Example model. However, a predictive model fully developed for YM gives the precision and certainty needed, without any drawdown days, while at the same giving the player the facility to scoop out what each...

    Full time traders --please respond

    No offense, but there is some real obsessive horsesh*t in this thread. This throws light on the state of independent traders. The only place where it matters to bring precision and certainty to bear is in your trading during the trading session. And where instead is all the precision and...

    Packaging yourself for a life after trading fulltime

    downtickboy, you might as well give it up. You exemplify why trading doesn't work for most even if you are not losing. The trading arena is there to exploit so as to amass money. If you remove your gains for living costs no trader can amass a great pile of money. Once you have mastered your...

    The lonliness of trading

    The loneliness of trading .. there are those it appears who go into fu*ked-up mode if they are not in continual company. One of the best friends and best type of company you can have is yourself. So I can work away by myself for long periods. But sure as hell social interaction is reviving...

    self-sabotage

    Self-sabotage. Two elements are involved. Firstly if you do not know the market you trade in really well then it will end up with you beating up on yourself for misjudgment or weakness. I've probably become very repetitive on this aspect but you have to do the data assembly, study, analysis...

    Which is your style, Follow or Counter the trend

    Your "favorite the 'I' day". Indecisive Day, huh? :)

    Which is your style, Follow or Counter the trend

    Divorce yourself from what goes on before or after any trading day market (eg Dow index). What occurs each day is the familiar W or M day, or it can be a V day, an N day or an A day. The apparently elastic intraday movement up and down are gyrations. You may say instead intra-day trends or...

    WHY GM will blow up...

    There are no longer any American cars anyhow. Everything produced in Nth America is cloned on European design. All the car models look like unappealing smooth bugs; you just want to step on them all and squash all these ugly mothers .. passengers stepping out beforehand of course. :)

    It's all about being disciplined and organized

    This is bland horsesh*t. It is comical how this sort of stuff gets peddled presumably to dummies who cannot organize themselves. Sure any 'would-be' independent trader will need to organize himself but the key is getting to know thoroughly the market he chooses to trade in. But, no, its always...

    NLP...care to share?

    Is NLP a fancy name for being positive? The idea of using postive mantras has been around for a very long time. Yes, if needed when you've become negative, using positive mantras can have great value, definitely. But if you do not know your market, NLP is not going to turn you into a winner...

    Personal Rules

    What sort of childish horsesh*t is this? You don't list any trading plan or any tested capability to know your market, so the best thing you can do is fold up your tent and go home. :)

    some people think trading is like a warrior's quest

    Well, nothing wrong with warring terminology which I sometimes use myself. But the fact is the market is a tame fluffy little pussy cat; you just keep gently stroking his smooth soft furry guts and the money keeps flowing your way. :)

    China to be world's 4th biggest economy after GDP revision

    You cannot rely on the efficacy of any figures from the Chinese Commies. :)

    Which is your style, Follow or Counter the trend

    Fair point. Sure, you can draw inter-day trend lines for the purposes of a background visual. Fact is the money is in the gyrations (eg index futures). :)
