Buy 100 or so calls or puts on a single stock. That will motivate you not to screw up something. Or better yet, why not try to learn Forex. That beast is something else, I have significant trouble understanding how Forex moves and why I don't perform well in it. I had been trying a...

They probably do a per-ticket commission schedule? You pay very little in commissions, but they take a % of your profits. If you still pay high commissions, then they better be something special, like amazing training, mentoring, all the bells and whistles. EDIT: looked on their...

Trade Vision Capital www.tradevisioncapital.com It's kinda like Bear Capital as well, just figured you could add that to the list.

Hehe, that's why I suggested the Ford Tempo. Back awhile ago my friends and I called it the "Big Temp".... although it was small :( Amazing gas mileage though, but moved on to a 98 Mustang instead. He will probably blow up all his money.

So you are looking for equity trading or options? http://www.chicagotradingservices.com/ looked interesting, had that in my favorites for awhile. I tried the Liquid platform, great stuff, does Options and Equities. It's that new stuff. So you could kill 2 birs with 1 stone. That is...

Did he indicate what/if he had college education? Sour Grapes though, c'mon, you started a thread in a professional forum about what kind of car you should buy, and this is your second post. What do you expect from those of us who actually don't get supported by mommy and daddy still :D...

Curious, why did you leave your job? Did it not work out, or are you just looking to move on your own? "-Potential income(what a typical trader might make)" A typical trader makes nothing. A typical trader loses money. You have to be special, dedicated, hard working, and disciplined to...

Yup, I thought that was the point of being a Day-Trader

........ :confused: What does this have to do with your career in trading? I say Ford Tempo!

What would I have to ping to test the time between transfer from me to my order-execution? I know the delay between clearing and all that I can't test..... or can you? How do you find out the real speed from the time you click the buy/sell button to when it gets filled? Anyone have any...

I'm originally from Johnstown, PA. Currently in VA. Steelers rule :cool:

Dumbest thing I have done? Started learning how to trade with Futures! :D Pain could have been reduced significantly if only traded 100 shares of stock instead.

Oh geeze... more doom and gloom.... Never any good news.

You don't even want to get me started on eSignal. So i'll nicely say "NO WAY" to respond to your question. Just like that LIE about a mid-april release of eSignal 8.

Sweet, is that tradestation on all the screens?

Nah, I don't like trading that way, need stops tight. Futures just weren't for me. Why need a bigger account though? I could have traded 5 contracts if I wanted to..... That statement didn't make much sense. At least not for me.

I would have to say the most important part of trading Index futures are your stops. Finding the balance of what is tight enough to protect capital, and loose enough to let profits go and trades to get good. I personally failed at attempting that, futures just were not for me. My...

Thanks! I try, trading is the greatest job in the world, or at least my world. Only can become successful with experience, hard work, and dedication. I'd like to dedicate that one to Red Ink, Tachyon, and ElectricSavant that inspired me to keep going :D

FaderTrader uses them, maybe he will chime in here and let everyone know.

"By the way, whom told you that Japanese Candlesticks will make you a great trader???" The books which i read on candlesticks. "Was it your mentor you use to talk about when you first arrived at ET???" He actually used bar-charts, completely irrelevant... lol. "Ok...so you failed at...
