These two names have different IP's so they aren't the same person. Just to clear up any confusion...

Money=Debt in our current economic structure. It ends with Money/Debt rising in a parabolic manner until too much money is chasing too few goods. Bottom line this structure works for so long until it doesn't . Ultimately we will have to go back to the old structure(gold standard) once...

Missed opportunities happen... It really doesn't matter, there will be another one.

BTW props to you for the nice swing trade or long term hold whatever it is. Still full position or take some off the table yet?

Just pulled my crowns off my teeth and am headed to the local pawn shop ! $1625:D

Ok, well I see there is a bit of a wiener comparing contest that got started here but I guess that happens on ET. Anyways. I've been contemplating moving a bigger percentage of money in futures. Considering I had about a 38% draw down with my long term funds from 06 to 08. All is good now...

Using 225k unleveraged for long term diversified investments while risking 125$ max initial risk per trade in the futures markets intraday while using leverage is what I do. So I take it you guys trade futures without using stops or utilizing the leverage?

So basically you don't believe in taking intraday risk but rather just long term investment via futures using little to no leverage.

+1 Larry williams has noted many times having 100's and/or 1000's of lots on and the market getting within 1 tick of his stops without triggering them. These people thinking the market or brokers are out to get them are over analytical . Over-analytical types stop, think, and freeze when the...

Let me rephrase again..... With 250k liquid net worth what dollar amount would you risk per intraday trade,? While keeping the rest in long term diversified portfolio.

Lol yeah I get your drift. I guess I personally wouldn't go for a 3 asset diversification although I do agree with those choices.

I need to rephrase my question in detail. Lets say one has 250k in liquid net worth. ( I always use this number for hypothetical situations) How much money from that 250k should be held in a futures account and what should the risk per trade be from that amount held in the futures...

I'll ask again because I am interested and have not discussed this with anyone else yet. What percentage of your liquid net worth do you have in your futures account? Do you base your " per trade risk" on your total net worth or just on what is in your futures account?

So what are our options for the end game. Currency reset? WW3? Gold has worked for thousands of years why did we try to fix something that wasn't broken? or was it? The last generation of prosperity in the US has been at the expense of the rest of the world and for every action there...

Bearice, all of your articles make me feel so warm and fuzzy about being a US citizen. :) Do you live in US bearice?

I laughed pretty hard when I read this haha

If you were a broker... Would you... A. Trade against the worst clients. B. Trade with the best clients. ???? Any crooked brokers care to reply lol

Well that's news to me. I thought all brokers cared about was where all of the liquidity was so they could do more volume and make more via commission. So they literally can copy to the tick every entry and exit of the most successful accounts at a firm if they want to? If there is any...

Example, Go long from one broker 10 cars in ES at 1300. Go short 10 cars at 1320 in another broker if that is your profit target. Now you are hedged. When you want to go long or short again then close one of the positions out, rinse and repeat. Watch your maintenance margins very...
