    You're missing a lot. Just read all the threads on this. We've gone over this ad nausem.

    Mav's Combine Proposition

    You know, maybe this model would work for the "trader" if their offices were located in Kansas City, MO. But NY? Man, that is brutal. I assume most of these guys must be remote and living somewhere very very cheap.

    Mav's Combine Proposition

    So wait, why can't they go straight to T3? If T3 will give you access to Sperling and Redler via webex or whatever that's far more educational then any trading content. Can you just deposit 5k and go directly to T3? They must have some kind of agreement with them blocking guys from doing that...

    Mav's Combine Proposition

    What I don't understand is there are equity firms out there that let you come in with 5k and a 99% payout no? So why pay 11k to basically deposit 6k only to get a 50% payout?

    Mav's Combine Proposition

    Wow, that's worse then I thought. So basically you pay them 11k. They let you lose 6k so they lock in 5k from your deposit. They make money on the commissions. And heaven forbid you should make anything, they take 50% of your profits. Do you know if that is for life? Are you locked into...

    The ACD Method

    Here is my post back on 8/20. This SLW has really run since then. Up over 30!!!! I continue to like SLW as a great trading vehicle. Has weekly options as well.

    The ACD Method

    Crude Oil wicked at the failed monthly A up which also happened to be par! That's a big level. No way was crude going to go through there on it's first attempt. Not to mention the number line! I have a -11 on the monthly number line.

    Let's take this to an even greater extreme. I know the answer but it will crystallize this point better. Say a trader has their equity at 90k on a 50k account so 40k in open profits. He has not taken a single check yet. Will you let the trader give back all 40k of open p&l and then another...

    TopstepTrader and Patak Trading Partners- Easy to read QUESTIONS and ANSWERS

    Well, apparently I can read better then most on here. I've never met Michael but just reading through the site I understand the model very well. There are two other firms doing the same thing in a slightly different fashion. I'm trying to help people understand basic math, challenging for...

    TopstepTrader and Patak Trading Partners- Easy to read QUESTIONS and ANSWERS

    Don, that is baffling to me. Without going into any specifics, I'm curious what people are asking you about a company that is not even in the same industry as you or even regulated by the same authorities?

    TopstepTrader and Patak Trading Partners- Easy to read QUESTIONS and ANSWERS

    Michael, do you ever get the feeling that traders enter the combine simply trying to hit your numbers instead of actually executing their strategy? I think one of the fears I would have if I was you is having traders abandon a working strategy simply to make sure the square peg wasn't trying to...

    Anti-Obama film going gangbusters!

    I DID see it and it was one of the most over rated movies of all time. I'm a huge film buff and I have no qualms about giving praise to movies that deserve it. And that film did not deserve the praise. But hey, they broke the homo barrier and that is progressive. So give them a bunch of Oscars.

    Anti-Obama film going gangbusters!

    It was nominated for 8 Oscars. Eight! And won 3 including best director and best screen play. I believe it came a year after the Passion. If you don't think politics plays a large role in the Oscars, you are very naive. It has nothing to do with "how good" a movie is.
