oh great it's you again. *farts...computer monitor rattles*

i'm comfortable with stocks, thats pretty much all that I have studied and need at least 25k to trade my system. id rather take the money now and work at night/weekends for additional cash

dogen3, thanks for your post. I hear trading is tough, and I do expect to work hard learning and training to be successful in this field. I don't expect to get rich quick. I did post that I would charge a 15% fee after 6 months, but I am not making the assumption that I will be profitable by...

I guess its a lose lose. Other people have been slammed because they asked questions without letting people know their situations. Either way, it was there for the taking. I don't think I claimed that I will be successful because I am a graduate student. Your right about one thing, the...

shhhh....don't be giving any advice about low risk trades in here. :D i also like this approach and like to place a stop-loss just above/below where I take the position. that way if i'm wrong, I'm not out much (as long as the stop is triggered) Anyone who enters a position is predicting...

i don't plan on making money for the first 6 months. if it takes longer than that great. if my account goes below the PDR amount, then I'm out and will go back to paper trading the markets. I remember reading the thread you started about beginning to trade. only a fool thinks he will make...

thank you, i thought of it myself. no ta, no fundamentals, no price action, no lvl2, nothing of the sort. i just click buy and sell randomly throughout the day. you could blindfold me and it wouldn't matter. isn't this what most people do?

No and No

yes, people like this exist. this type of loot for these two is like buying a lotto ticket for the average joe. it's a drop in the bucket. i've seen one of them drop 5K on meat, wine, and liquor for a weekend barbecue for 50 people. no special occasion, just because he can. I'm still...

any other words of wisdom?

getting a loan for say 1% on 50,000 to trade with sounds like a good idea to me if your one of those profitable traders. rich folks are nice to have as friends.:D

i was searching around for the ruling on refinancing or borrowing money to invest in the market as it was mentioned that it was illegal. seems like you can. on the NASD site they state that people are doing this. http://www.nasd.com/web/idcplg?IdcService=SS_GET_PAGE&ssDocName=NASDW_005961

does anybody know a good website the summarizes or highlights trading rules and regulations. I have spent lots of time on the sec site and find its search function pathetic.

for a person that trades on so many monitors, i find if humorous that you are developing a handheld mobile device. The product "looks" great, but the true test is how easy it is to use and how it performs. although I am currently on the sidelines observing the market, I don't foresee...

Some more information about myself and situation. Not only will I be trading my colleague's money, I will be putting up 15k myself. After market hours, I will be working part-time to add money to my trading account (I am guessing that I can obtain about $900 a week). Yes, in the realm of...

Thanks for your wisdom as it is greatly appreciated. Your other posts are equally as informative. If I have any questions about rolling bills and smoking em, I'll pm you.

Before I ask my question, a little background about myself. I'm a graduate student enrolled in a clinical psychology doctoral as well as an MBA program. I plan to hit the ground running trading the markets after graduating (sole-prop). I will primarily trade a handful of Nasdaq stocks with a...

You have no discipline yet you continue to trade! As if continuing to make the same mistakes is going to help you learn discipline. It is easy to become upset and frustrated when you don’t follow your rules and then end up handing cash out to people who can. Even worse, you kick your own...

first the obvious, people who are impatient want something. They want something and become annoyed or frustrated because they cannot have it when they want it. i want you to do something for me...next time you have a trade on and the price just sits there, clear a space on the floor, sit down...

what's the rush to get out of your trade? afraid the signal was false? worried you made the wrong call? when the feedback from the market is neutral (move is not occurring), what eats at you? why do you need instant feedback from the market?
