Torge, If you were a sumo wrestler who decided to try boxing, and went into a tournament with little training but only a belief that you should do Ok, how do you think you would come out?

Zuizo, Thanks, just what I need.

Hi Mike, On the link you gave to your site it says "PageTrader believes that once you experience the #1 future forecaster in the world" Just wondering how you know you are the best. Not sure what your site has to do with BDT but since you gave the link and mention Shay perhaps I missed some posts.

Think about how much information is concentrated in a book. How long would it take to present all that? A seminar gives a nice boost, and some people like that, even though it wears off after a day or two; or if you don't like reading it is easy to sit and listen to a seminar. I was on LBR's...

I better leave those answers up to Shay:) :D I do think the advertising is overdone. In a trade lasting 2 -6 minutes I wouldn't say the exit is the most important part. To (over)simplify it: this type of scalping is about getting in on a surge of momentum and exiting as that surge starts to...

I think Shay said somewhere he doesn't give an exit as he leaves that up to traders. When I was there most of breakouts I caught only lasted a few minutes so I had maybe 2-4 positions open. What I found was you had to be very fast and intuitive to get out of the positions at the right time and...

I have been on a number of chatrooms and all are different. From an educational standpoint Linda Bradford R's one was one of the best but one of the worst for calls (while I was there- only a trial)Bestdaytrader is momentum breakout and gives many calls. The calls are bracketed (long and short...

Lil, You had lots of help on your other thread when you asked about being a trader with your $200 equity. To give another hint Tradestation (a popular broker) sets a minimum account balance of $30,000 for active traders. But says $50,000 is preferable.

Shogun, I was in your room last year. I decided to venture back to futures and am still trying my hand there but might rejoin your room. For everyone: the calls are momentum breakouts - you either make it or you don't. I liked the tiny stops - suits my character. Most of the shorts I missed...

What's are 'bigs'?

Wouldn't that be 'Grammatically Correct Elite Trader'? Good thread except for the insults.

I liked Prince P. too, I think he had alot to offer, given time. That said, he was misguided (IMO) in his attacks on samson and well deserved a good banning.:) Hope he returns though.

Funnily enough that has also been my experience.

Ramora, thanks very much for this. i spent a couple of months working on a similar project and gave up for the same reasons. BUT I wondered (until I read your post) whether there might be something I missed. Now I can rest easy.:)

1 tick 10,000 yen (about $90). You win big or lose big.:D

I found this thread and several others started by Samson useful. I haven't seen any evidence of lies. In fact someone said he doubted that Samson went to the police over traderbrad - and a few days later we find out from Brad himself that the police knocked on his door. If you said Samson...

oops, forgot the attachment;

Appreciate your comments BM. I recently subscribed to esignal Mp but am somewhat mystfied as to what I should be looking for. Can anyone give some pointers about this chart of ES that I shot 10mins ago?

If you are trading with a not full electronic broker they might take minutes to realise your balance is declining to dangerous levels. Perhaps by the time they close your positions it is too late. Or if you held overnight and had limit down several days in a row this might happen too- (not...

Thanks for the points Zepp, these are the sort of rules I'm considering for my own trading.
