1-trade-a-day.blogspot.com : 1 trade a day throughout the summer on SPX, €/$ and Gold.

Oh yeah? which thread? I think it will take just the "end of the month" thing to get worked out... that is 2 days. "They" often do that, work up the markets before EoMonth... This CBs BS is getting way too far... these out of FOMC speeches should have NO EFFECT on the mkt whatsoever... What...

Ok... nobody finds this strange... guess IGNITION algos are just part of the market now.... and they are having a ball these last few weeks for sure

Here recap from MarketWatch (like if it was some football game... watching old Granny...) http://blogs.marketwatch.com/capitolreport/2016/03/29/live-blog-of-yellen-question-and-answer-session-with-economists/ Yellen says forward guidance, bond purchases would be tools if economy falters 12:20p...

I mean, come on... what did Yellen said at EXACTLY 6.20pm to rip the market like that? In 60 seconds... at a meaningless "eco club" speech... come on... Was not watching live cos on hols this week, but can t believe there could b any "real" stuff behind that. Saw the 1.129 target coming last...

original story seems to come from Daily Mail tabloid (had to be !), 12th of July 2015 http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3158352/A-bad-night-no-claims-bonuses-TWO-supercars-worth-total-350-000-crash-night-town.html

Just saw on ZeroHedge yesterday the next-to-be-busted kid, but news from him started appearing last summer in various sources... http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2016-01-05/meet-trader-who-earns-70k-bad-month-working-just-one-hour-day

Yes, you may. However, since I started this thread, I may also ask you to start another thread on any other slightly related topics that may be of interest to you. You are welcome to do that. Rgds. (that being said, my general advice is to flee like hell (for LTRs, that is :) ) women who are...

Just to get back this thread into focus... this is NOT a thread about marriage counselling..... (@"SmallStops"...) (i.e. why relationships will or will not work)... nor about how trading affects relationships... but rather how relationships (short or longer term ones) and their emotional...

Thx for personal feedback. As I have already said, this could be consistent with the Market Wizards series, since the topic is not even touched upon. (cos all of them in stable(/"boring", i.e. not much to talk about) relationships?) So far in this category are: PriceChange, wrbtrader's friend...

Nice Luis ! :) HK babes from LKF?! ahah Well, sure, to some extent this is a personal matter, how some emotions will affect your trading. Personally I don t think it could work for me, even though my style of trading involves indeed a lot of waiting... Maybe in some psychological level it...

Thanks for sharing this very concrete example wrbtrader (at least 1 on the thread ! Finally !!! lol...). Since you probably already had it in mind, you slightly misunderstood me, I was not talking about taking time away from work FOR girls (chasing or rough and tumble), but taking time away...

Yeah Jenal, I agree. I have felt after discussions with someone from family or else better take a few hours break before going back to the screens... that is a good rule. Also agree with sports in general WideTails.

How do you know it was "most" of his money? I just found a Forbes article mentioning 172 millions in losses indeed, but also 50 millions in profit per year for years. http://www.forbes.com/forbes/2003/1027/108.html

Now meet Mohamed Islam, who had made 72 millions, or so he said in his 1 day of glory... : Original Story in the NYMag, 14/12/2014: http://nymag.com/news/articles/reasonstoloveny/2014/mohammed-islam-stock-trading/ Busted Story only 1 day later (lol) in the Observer...

Ok, I have a few ones in store to add myself: After Sam Cook above, here is Alex Hope: Original story in The Daily Telegraph, May11: Original article not found, but: "He featured prominently in a SPONSORED supplement about spread-betting in the Daily Telegraph last May."...

All right, I am starting this thread following the last bust to come to light (see thread http://www.elitetrader.com/et/index.php?threads/teenager-who-turned-2-000-into-21million-in-a-year.290758) So it would go like this: Original story in [fill in], DD/MM/YY: http... Busted story in [fill...

Here you go... "Plymouth Herald" ridiculed (once again? lol) By whom? The Daily Telegraph... guess they prefer the "busted" kind of stories... Altho I guess there is an incentive for brokers/banks/the industry at large to let (push?) this kind of get-super-rich-super-quick-trading kind of...

Yeah Luis, a lot of "impulsive" writing on any internet forum.. always comes less expensive than compulsive trading LOL. Reasonable advice from Pricechange as well, going back a bit to Luis post. Much more real advice than "don't have emotions in trading" or "keep your emotions in a box during...

Haha Jorge, I guess HK isn't bad either ;) Good strategy I think, probably the one most people settle for? Thing is I don t really want to enter an LTR yet because I want to experience more, and basically an LTR does 2 things: reduce the amount of experience you can/want to have, and takes a lot...
