    Which real live future trading room I should choose?

    Now you are sounding like a shill. If you mention a site due to the topic, then do so. But stop being a spammer, glorifying the goodwill of an unknown website that you heartily endorse. In other words, the more you say and mention this website, the less credible you are. And if you...

    Is it legal to hedge in another account?

    hedging the same instrument is mathematically the same as just increasing/decreasing your positions in one account, as normal. And if you have to act on something to "hedge" then you can just as easily adjust your one account in the other direction. It is a belief and practice of newbies...

    Why aren't options reported on 1099

    never traded options, but where is the evidence of this? No brokers report options, but they report stocks, futures, bonds, forex???

    costs of doing business

    No. You pay retail. The House pays wholesale. Bid at x, Sell at y. Slippage is that the price moved beyond what you expected, such as a market order in a market contrary to the direction you want to go. There is negative and positive slippage, such as with limit orders. But the price you...

    Obama: Legalize illegals to get them health care

    And here we make LEGAL immigrants spend hundreds to thousands of dollars and many months to years waiting for the INS and other agencies, following the legal path. But others choose to walk across the border and demand their rights. And millions of americans support them as if illegals are...

    The S&P will see 1000 before 1100

    Why do people post wild guesses as if they have any validity or reason to exist? The market does not care about prognosications. A person either learns to trade what they see, or they are part of the "95%".

    Researching for a trading job interview on monday

    expect 12 hour days. after their terrible writeoffs at UBS, the bonus is anyone's guess. In good years, can almost equal salaries. But with all the scrutiny on bonuses, nothing will be the same in the longterm future.

    Is it legal to hedge in another account?

    again, how is this mathematically different from just adjusting your position size? Seriously? You can play with possibilities all day, but in the end, it is still smoke and mirrors.

    Confessions of a loser who need to quit

    good post EXCEPT knowing your win and loss percentage means very little. Perhaps the most overrated of them all. Newbies focus on wining%. But this varies depending on your profit target, stop loss, panic, holding&hoping, and many other things. For example, a 90% winner who averages $100...

    What Happened with Doug Allen Last Year?

    What are pity you are so lazy, that after someone posts and says they don't plan to elaborate, you tell them they should. Seriously, your post looked like a 7 year old who wants others to spoon feed them. And since you answered this just a few minutes after I posted, you need to stop...
