That's true. But since you recently disclosed that you made 10M$ last year, perhaps you will have more followers if you start a call thread on ET... PS: That kind of money can even buy Bieber's friendship. Are you aware of how lucky you are?:cool:

Really? I went too, but here in the Alps the snow is melting since the beginning of January.It was already "spring snow". Good to know.

Same pattern for every rogue trader( Leeson, Kerviel, Dooley ): 1-Let's make a trade with the house money, I will never get caught. 2-Wow. I made X . I am just the king. Let's continue. 3-If I am down, I just have to wait a little to be positive again. See, I made 3X. 4-This time I have to...

And that's all you pay? I suppose it's for an individual. If you incorporate what would be your average taxe rate for trading?

Hello, I know it is a boring subject, but how much of your trading profits do you give in taxes? I just want to quantify how desperate my fiscal situation is...LOL. I am talking about total taxes( income, corporate, dividends...) excluding social security. I live in France which is a mess...

I was at the CBOT from september to december. I have no problem with people wearing jeans, shirts and sneakers. I prefer it in fact, but please stop buying those shoes, they are simply horrible:http://www.newbalance.fr/Outdoor/Chaussures Same goes with the shoes you americans put with...

IncreaseNow, I just traded Corn with 4 lots, which means 50 $ per tick. If it moves 1 point, I make 200$. What do you think of my trade?

Yep . That's what I am talking about with advantage : 100 * 0.99 + 900* 0.69 + 1000 * 0.49 + 2000 * 0.29 = 4000 lots @ 0.44$
