Thank you. I know Vanguard is a really good one... although they only offer their funds for free. How about TD Ameritrade that offers an extensive list of ETFs for free as well including those of Vanguard but also iShares and such? My idea is that Vanguard for trades other than their funds are...

Hello everyone, Just as the title mentions I'm new to the US and all the parabola of choices regarding retirement investment accounts. I've been researching but its been a long while since I looked into the american market regarding brokers - other than Interactive of course. For a retirement...

dude read the f*ckin post. It says "SINCE INCEPTION OF THRREAD" Do you really think he made 700 trades in 1 week?

XTB as well

You're falling to a fallacy here too... Ok 30% of the traders were profitable that month... but even a loser trader in the long run will have positive months... so of those 30% how many are consistently profitable during many months or in the long run? Because the traders that are in those...

ahaha so true... May for me was pretty much dull ... drawdown. As a matter of fact as of today I'm at a new equity high... go figure... guess i'll need to retire for good

I do a kind of weighted calculation. Like mutuual funds. Let's say you have 10,000 dollars. Whatr I do is with those 10,000 dollars I "issue" units of participation at a certain amount as in an IPO. Let's say I give a nominal value for each unit of 10 USD, therefore I have 1000...

Exactly ... under 44 or so there was no excuse to still be in silver... just have a plan to exit the winners of course.

it's down. I use momentum or trend following whatever you call it... im by no means a day trader. I rerversed my longs to shorts at 44 usd more or less... did i know by then it would continue to go down? No in fact i thought i was going to pick the short term bottom... but it then...

bought a few contracts at 43,40 :) I already had positions at 19, 30 and 34 ... expecting this one to work as well at least i hope it will. If not, well cut the loss and move on. But i think it was really a good oportunity

A drawdown of 31% in 2 days... he won't last long ...

Those are "updated" figures... i'm pretty sure they are adjusted to inflation and those 500 million are not the amount he held back then

I hope you're being sarcastic ...

Even though that's my opinion and what I think doesn't mean I'll trade acording to that belief. If the market sshows strength and the trend changes certainly i will be start going long again...

Well he should sit tight... we're going higher with all the money going back to Japan in the form of JPY in order to reconstruct a lot of stuff... Mid 60's is my targer or even lower

Simple repatriation of JPY from assets sold around the world probably from a lot of entities and insurers as well... something is needed to finance all the reconstruction. And if past is any guide in 1995 the JPY gained 2000 pips on USD after the Kobe Earthquake... So maybe the same could...

Medium term trend follower here... I add whenever one component of my system looks for oversold conditions in the short term that go against the main trend. I add on those situation

I have an acquainted that usually he tells me and rubs in my face that he can get 100% in a month and that he has done that, and that he doeesn't want my 20-25% steady returns since he can do better than me... My reply is, what worth is making 100 or 2000% if after it somewhere down the road...

I'll ask the bigger basket then in an "unoffical" manner so Mr Murray doesn't get accused of changing baskets ... Cheers
