    Trader Girl Forex Trades

    IluvVol you are a troll and a tool. You get offended by calling someone slow which clearly hit a cord but you are calling people tools. You are a retard who had to post multiple times straight just to dominate the thread. If I want to add another instrument to my arsenal I will do it. Who...

    Trader Girl Forex Trades

    I have to ask you to please keep posting. Your complete smack downs of these posers totally rocks. Don't feed the trolls like they said. You called them out but am sure it is not even worth bothering. Fibonacci retracements are my main tool in ES trading. I use it almost exclusively and it...

    IB reporting many large blocks ES (1500+)

    Yes I see blocks up to 3K and 2.5 k and down going through in the tape. IB's tape is the real deal as I see other places such as TOS whose tape blows. They see like 1/5 of the orders and NEVER see the big ones. I thought the limit on size for the ES was 1500 but I guess there must be someway...

    New Emini trader; what best platform for newbie?

    No I am serious. There is nothing better out there for my needs. It is just plain sexy. Mainly you need to use a plenty of light pastel colors and stay away from solids. Also include medium to light greys. What happens with most people is that they don't know what they like so it is...

    New Emini trader; what best platform for newbie?

    The hottest platform is IB's Booktrader. But it is not automated. Safety is really good also because you don't get these crazy things with platforms that don't send their orders to the exchange but rather store the locally. If automation is a must I would go Ninja with IB. I would use that...

    Impossible to find a real pro with a real edge as a mentor?

    I agree with th 15 dollar comment. I have actually gotten the best thing out of various really cheap ebooks and ended with my own really cheap ebook system that works for me and I think substantially improved over the ones I got. Very simple like you said. Many of the times I feel like they were...

    Luck vs. Skill

    I got extremely lucky during college in a handful of picks and made more money than I had ever seen. I proceeded to loose 80% of it in LEH, WM and FRE among others. So I know that you can get lucky and in a big way. However I don't think you can figure out it is luck while it is happening...

    Not all the way but +40 on one trade then my girlfriend had me take her to the mall. She is still hearing about it. We are watching Fast Money and they said it was the worst day in 80 years and I let her hear it some more.

    Shorting these 3x S&Ps?

    I believe this was already answered as not possible or really not a good idea. Reasoning is the way they leverage these 3x ETF's make it towards them being Bull or Bear and you play the one you want. On the other thread someone tried it and it would not go through. TNA BGU = Bull...
