    Any government online tax filing tools out there?

    I use TaxAct though I plan on outsourcing tax prep next year. Tired of dealing with it as each year there is always some special tax situation that bogs down preparation effort.

    Discipline, Thirst of knowledge, Outside the box thinker

    You are not going to find what you are looking for here. I suggest a meetup group local to you where you can interact with people in person. Traders on this board (or any board) are not going to waste their valuable time outside of posting for a two post member that they do not even know. It...

    Any experience hiring office space as a lone trader? Worth it?

    I just use a laptop which is fine because I am running my strategies fully automated in the cloud. The reason I signed up for the shared space is because I needed a business address for my company. I don't think there are other traders....mainly software, marketing types and a couple of groups...

    Any experience hiring office space as a lone trader? Worth it?

    I am paying $125 a month for a co-work space where I have 24/7 access but do not have a dedicated desk. It is a bit more for a dedicated desk or office. It definitely has a social vibe and I have had good chats with the other members. Sounds like you might benefit from this sort of setup.

    Stupid PhD

    Unless you want to teach, I really don't see the point in getting a PhD. You clearly despise "working for the man". Why not apply your programming knowledge to a market niche and be a consultant where you would at least have a bit more autonomy.

    What do you do after a losing trade?

    This of yourself as like a pit boss at a casino. He does not care if some people are winning some of the time as that is part of the game. He will however, pay very close attention if someone starts winning a bit too much or one of the dealers is not performing.

    Starting 401k near the highs in a bull market?

    To this point, I recommend you contribute to retirement vehicles and a non retirement trading account. I did just that and the non retirement trading account has grown quite nicely and I have used it to help fund a startup venture.

    Starting 401k near the highs in a bull market?

    Well, if you had a lump sum to invest, it MIGHT make sense to spread out the contributions to a retirement vehicle. But if you are periodically making contributions, the best thing to happen would be a market crash where you were buying greater quantities on the way down. The thing is, you...

    Hi, Can anyone direct me to proper information.

    What platform are you currently using for trading? As far as keeping your strategy secret, I would have the coder write the strategy code where the signal is something other than your actual indicator where everything else matches your strategy. Then, when you get the code from him, swap out...
