    New Blog for Day TRADERS!

    I posted this in the thread in Index Futures, but not sure if that was the right spot... I always wondered this - why do services like PureTick seem to quote numbers based on multiple contracts? PureTick says "Profit based on 5 contract trades on Dow E-Mini YM. If you are trading with 1...

    Investing Family / Friends Money

    Well, there you go - actual, real life horror stories. Just like trading you have to examine the risk to reward. In this situation your risk is limitless and reward is minimal. Think about it - how much are you going to take from them if you make money? And if you do, then you will never hear...

    Bloody RED Day Yesterday

    I always wondered this - why do services like PureTick seem to quote numbers based on multiple contracts? PureTick says "Profit based on 5 contract trades on Dow E-Mini YM. If you are trading with 1 contract, you'd just divide the total P&L by 5 to find your total profit/loss potential." Why...

    Investing Family / Friends Money

    There's been a few threads on this topic, so make sure to use the search feature on the site. Simply - if you value the relationship, leave money out of it. As soon as money is involved, relationships change NO MATTER HOW 'CLOSE' YOU WERE PRIOR.

    100 dollar laptop

    Great idea, I hope it gains some steam. If you click their site it shows a map of what countries are in and what countries are thinking about it... The US... Any guesses? Yep, they are thinking about it.... LOL. Since this could ultimately hurt MSFT, better check with them before...

    The best advice for a Prospective Trader

    If they want to go thru forward with it, I would stress the importance of starting with a small account and build it from there. I would tell them do not jump into the deep end right away, play in the kiddie's pool for awhile.

    YM just die?

    Cajun - why spend the time searching out threads that are 2 years old simply to get another post on the board? I mean, you have to spend a lot of time to find this one post from 2005 so you can get another post out there. This is the kind of stuff that is going to irritate people, just an...

    Best Broker

    I found Infinity to be expensive if you are a 'do it yourselfer', in other words - you do not need help, advice, etc. from a broker. Infinity has a nice website, webinars, etc. but all that great stuff is paid for somehow... If you are just looking for quality executions and service, but don't...

    What was Hall doing to Ginn!?!?!?

    It would have been nice having a deep threat to kick FL's defense honest. I know, probably not game changing, but regardless - what kind of TD celebration includes tackling your own teammate? Unreal.

    What was Hall doing to Ginn!?!?!?

    Did you guys see this? This was after Ginn scored on the opening kickoff of the OSU/FL game... Was he trying to break his ankle???? I know, there's no point of debating the what if's... but... what if Ginn was in the entire game??? :)

    Frosty's auto-trading bot goes live with REAL money

    Isn't interesting how the human mind works... you are mad that the BOT you created is doing well! :confused: Just an interesting observation I think. Kind of like when you get into a trade and lose, you want it to continue down so you can say 'thank God I exited when I did!'. And if you...

    Trade The News

    For the amount they want to charge for this, it was not for me. Like I said, it was just more distracting than anything else.

    3 jobs that can give you 6 figures salary

    Cash - you are telemarketing at the beginning to grow your book. Once your book is established, it's actually not a bad gig at all. The saying we had when I was at the firm was - you are grossly underpaid your first 1-2 years and grossly overpaid later. (the thing we left out was that...

    You got balls of steel B1. To each his own of course, but I think if I had a position at -20 pts that I wouldn't have much time to manage it as I would be running to the bathroom to vomit too much. :D

    We had are beginning of the week runnup=selloff from here!

    I guess this is why I love intra-day trading - I just go with the flow of the current day and don't sit here and even think for one second that I just 'know' where the market is headed for a day or week.
