Nah! I'll just trade'm for the real "bullion". You know what they say about apples and doctors. We'll need all we can get as the world falls apart. :D

Now where the hell do you get off shorting the Canadian dollar. That's my home, you son of B. :D :D "CADJPY short 80.054" http://stockmarket618.wordpress.com/ Are you Japanese? Is this your way of getting back at me? Not working. You're losing money on this bet too!! :D :D :D

Damnit! You mean Nine_Ender's depature is going to prove GrandSuperPooper right for a change??

Surprise, Surprise, more bearishness from GrandSuperPooper. Where's gold headed?

Ironic isn't it that 5% of the people enjoy 95% of the wealth. Maybe this reality has something in common with the 5%/95% succeful/failed traders.

I'm sure the number of knowers is larger than that. Unfortunately, knowledge and the wisdom to act on your knowledge are two very different things.

I was walking down the street here in Ottawa, Canada and flashed this picture. It made me think about you, GrandSuperPooper.

Yeh, yeh, I already called bullsugar on that one. Todays blog entry, LOL! "Euro hopium factor aside, SP500 1,363 should be the top."

I just told you that, idiot! Though it is true that traders follow the futures, the volume available in these markets today will be quite low. Today is a higher risk day to trade.

You are an idiot. The US markets are indeed closed today. Looks like the futures remain active, however. A simple google for us holidays yields the following: http://www.rightline.net/calendar/market-holidays.html BTW, how's your gold short holding out?

You guarentee it, eh? Gold up to 1732. No, my average price on 12 units of gold is now 1727. Remember me saying this?

Anyhow, enough about me! Let's get back to the original post.

You're right. I don't deny this. However, it isn't the balance in my acccount that causes "fear", rather it is the $/unit change that has the greatest effect on me. Watching my equity change $1 at a time is easy to stomach. Watching my equity change at a rate of $10/unit is harder to...

Are these guys generally discretionary traders who over time find a strategy they can automate?

Actually counting points is deceiving too since it fails to take into consideration how many contracts you purchased. My chart with FXCM shows point count, but fails to differentiate between a 1 ounce of gold purchase and 3 or 10 ounce purchase. I look at my bottom line. I don't care...

Tend to agree that 10 to 30% per week isn't realistic. It actually is when you are playing with small numbers, but as your account grows, taking the kind of risk required to earn at this level, is neither realistic nor very smart. On the other hand, while prop. trading, the expectation was...

Hey Buddy, if you're going to be cheeky as you were in your last post and as you were yesterday, then you deserve cheekyness thrown right back at you. I actually deleted my comment before you replied realizing that I was being a little too sharp. Yes, I did understand your point, but this...

Who cares??!! Don't you realize the world is coming to an end December 21,2012?? :D :D

@HateTheRisk. Insulting you? When? Sorry, that was never my intention. Thanks for your help.

@HateTheRisk Lol! My goals aren't as lofty as 40 million francs. I'll settle for a few million Canadian dollars. The government can take their share in taxes, and I'll live happily ever recovering my skills on my violin, and caring for my wife, and my baby due in July. But yes, using...
