    Odds Automatically Against You

    Who said only long or short? The market can go up. The market can go down. The market can go sideways The market can become choppy or chaotic, stopping you out and THEN turning profitable. Money management is a big part of this.

    If most daytraders lose money, then...

    Take out for slippage, commission, bad money management/errors, data feeds, system fees, etc. etc. Then you will understand why trading is negative sum, not zero sum.

    Trading FX futures

    Almost any futures broker. IB is one example. You can trade futures, forex, stocks, options out of the same account. The best argument I have seen for futures over forex, is that your money is SEGREGATED. Any former customer of Refco would understand the difference. If your broker goes...

    Possibly, but bending the rules for some puts the whole issue into a gray area. Then who gets to publicize their website/works and who does not? Why bother to be a sponsor - just be popular...

    China: Rich should pay to fight climate change

    China is in the top 3 largest economies and growing 10% a year. What exactly is their definition of rich that leaves them out of having to fund their huge CO2 emissions, now possibly being number 1??? While we have pollution control devices on cars for 30 some years , they build coal...

    typical trading systems come on...

    I think every advisory or newsletter or "pay me $5000 for a one day seminar" should have to trade their wares on some auditing service - including stats like Profit Factor & Sharpe. It is tiring when they put a few lines of fine print required by about "hypothetical reults." They make the...

    Spammer Alert

    Again, Alerting EliteTrader to a spammer goes in one ear and out the other. I posted this and I also used the Complain button yesterday. No action to the spammer's thread. I guess it is time to start a website, and use ET to build traffic! If they close you down, just start another...

    China: Rich should pay to fight climate change

    China may be the biggest CO2 emitter, sitting on $2 trillion of foreign exchange, take 10s of millions of manufacturing/assembly jobs from over 100 countries, and they want the "rich" countries that keep them afloat and buy their wares to pay for global warming??? China: Rich should pay to...

    If you could turn back time

    If I could turn back time, I would whisper into the ears of the proper authorities to bump off Bin Laden, Mullah Omar, and a few others before they got to their positions of terror. I would of course, bring back some NY Times issues for them to see. (9/11). Of course, I might try to also...
