I don't mean to be cruel, but no consistent, highly profitable trading strategies are going to be given away unless you find someone like me who gave away his strategies 15 years ago only to see a group of people automate them without asking me to join them. (I got over the anger quickly...

Now I know why I stopped following ET. Every thread devolves into stupidity. My only affinity for this site is I met a very good friend on here 15 years ago. As to this thread, why not ask , "how many of the posters made $1 mill trading in a year?" "How many in a month?" How many still have it...

Well, I have 4 high school degrees. So there!

Yes, please say more. What's your return since you started trading?

Look, this is the way it is today: NOBODY who has a big winning strategy is going to share their ideas with you. I'm just curious so I have 2 questions: 1) How old are you? 2) What sort of income do you think you could make trading? ie what would you expect you would make ? As to firms, I...

You can't short with Robinhood....so good luck when we have a bear market

Will you please please please trade my money?

It's that "modest compensation" which will assure you don't get a real expert. My fee is $1000 / hour inclusive of travel time, first class flights, and my choice of hotels. A $25,000 retainer is due in advance. Because ...that's how I roll all the time. Good luck.

Sorry, but IMHO you are wasting your time using technicals. I don't know anyone who's gotten rich using technicals.

"Compounding to a billion (or two) though is just being a sarcastic and dumb commenter" Not so fast... I know someone who has compounded $1000 into $2 billion, between the time he was 18 and 58. That's after tax.

zdreg, there's no link, just word on the street. I was hoping someone would know more than the rumors I'd heard of 70%+ capital haircuts, but I guess we can pull their FOCUS report when it gets filed . They had 33 mill in capital on the last one. It's about now they are wishing they'd paid me...

"Those who can, do. Those who cannot, teach." I hope this doesn't apply to flight training

The reason I ask about trader tax status is IB is so funky and often, IMO, wrong. They reported 89,000 in nonqualified dividends as qualified on my 1099. It was a foreign stock with no dual tax treaty. I could have just left it alone and nobody would be the wiser unless I was audited...and even...

I'd like to hear the answer to this. I saw this when I downloaded a friend's Betterment trades into turbotax. My understanding is you's go back and add or deduct from the basis of the next trade such that if you did all of the trades during the same year you'd have all the PNL in that year...

What's the story with a big loss? Anyone trade there and get their capital dinged?
