    The APPLE Crash

    No, you don't understand. Wifi "hotspot". In other words the iphone becomes a hotspot like you can get in a coffee shop. This allows a wifi capable device like your laptop to use your phone's internet and data plan. You need to learn about these things, Beau, so you can do your trading...

    Lots of short sellers at 13,000 level.

    Why? I can duplicate the price/performance volatility of NoDoji 1000 barrel oil contract with 50 gold contracts. This is a $100 margin requirement instead of $4000 that she requires. What expenses are you refering to. The 50 cent per ounce fee I pay? So, I would pay $25 to trade 50 ounces...

    Lots of short sellers at 13,000 level.

    You can't prove future results with past performance.

    Lots of short sellers at 13,000 level.

    Whose claiming to do it with stocks? Me? No, I doubled my money with a gold cfd. $2 of margin allows me to trade an ounce of gold.

    Lots of short sellers at 13,000 level.

    Beau, on another thread people are all upset that NoDoji is pulling $90,000/yr out of $10,000 trading oil futures. Assuming that we trust NoDoji, scaling this up, I say $450,000 is possible for you in one year. That's if you're scalping. $4,000,000 might be possible in 2 years, but not with...

    What are the largest fortunes ever made by INDEPENDENT traders?

    Wow, you started when I did, but I've doubled my money in that period of time. How about you?:D

    The APPLE Crash

    Actually, I see now that the newest iphone has the wifi hotspot capability. Hmm, $250 for an upgrade. Maybe, I'll pass the HTC over to my wife, rather than buying her a new phone. Edit: Only the 4s has the hotspot, and it costs an extra $400. See that's the trouble with Apple; its...

    Why do 5% of Traders Win?

    Understood. Always so much easier to look back at something in hindsight. Would I have actually taken that trade in real time? Don't know.:D I have to master this price action approach. Every time I chip away at it while using my limited understanding of price action, I make money...

    The APPLE Crash

    Not really. Its more of a cost benefit issue for my own needs. The Wifi hotspot capability of HTC saves me a bundle. I can have a single data plan for my htc phone and ipad. I was therefore able to buy the less expensive wifi capable only ipad. So, I am saving on both the data plan and...

    Why do 5% of Traders Win?

    Thanks for your answer. Good info. I also find it interesting that you chose to wait until 109.47 to go long. Seeing three red hammers in a row in an up trend, I would have immediately gone long if the next bar opened green, with a stop equivalent to the open of the previous green bar at...

    Why do 5% of Traders Win?

    Great illustration. Love it. Can you explain "scalpers short setup" comment. The succesful scalper would or wouldn't go short at the point of the failed breakout? I would have likely taken the short after the red bar on the failed breakout.

    The APPLE Crash

    I spent 6 months working with an iphone as a part of my job. I am much more happy with my own HTC Desire HD.

    Why do 5% of Traders Win?

    If you had a huge drawdown then I doubt very much you were/are a scalper, or a skilled scalper. NoD makes her money scalping which means she is doing lots of small trades every trade. I'd be surprised if you can do one trade a day or swing trade with a $10,000 account and make a decent living.

    Why do 5% of Traders Win?

    I don't think I would choose to trade $10,000 for every year. Obviously, though, I'm not at that level yet. I would be more inclined to gradually increase the trading capital, and then "invest" for the long term a sizeable percentage. So I'd take the $90,000, give the government its share in...

    Why do 5% of Traders Win?

    Why does the second sentence necessarily follow from the first? If NoD generates $400/day, she is generating about $110,000 of income. This would give her the flexibility to blow out two $10,000 accounts, and be left with $90,000 averaging $350/day. If NoD generate $500/day, she is...

    Why do 5% of Traders Win?

    Trouble is that the ignore list doesn't really work. I still get email alerts. ET needs to create an "asshole" list so that the emails are tagged with "asshole". In this way, I can filter the email alerts into the junk box. Clicking on the email alert and finding nothing is more annoying...

    Why do 5% of Traders Win?

    Here's some proof for you Lucias. This is what I can do in a day starting with a very small balance of $156. Now scale that up to a starting balance of $10,000. Even if I blew out a few $10,000 accounts over a period of one year, I'd still be WAY ahead. I should qualify that I had two gold...
