Dukascopy is not American. No ?

The only USA ECN brokers for Retail traders: IB Alpari MB Trading FXDD Did I miss any of this?

There is some solid effort and responses here, however about all of you are just wrong. Trading is a slang term for risk on-risk off services. As a trader, you buy, hold, and sell risk. That is all it is. All people need risk on- risk off. I'm questioning how "elite" some...

No thoughts?

I setup a brand new LLC for trading my own account, however I have learned that that Dodd-Frank 50:1 requirement also applies to LLC's. Will a C Corperation work for smaller margin reqirements? How did you get around 50:1? Any stupid requirements, such as min capital, or will any C...

emg you seem to suffer from mental retardation. I hope you get better. You should not attempt trading. No matter what others post (including my thought out three sentence plus post before) you just keep typing. I guess you are a failed trader and blame it on quitting community college.

A user since 2000?

FYI, this is a common interview question at banks and trading desks. The answer is "I would bet nothing". On a different note, a gambler can be a profitable gambler.

If you know insurance, there are no problems with float. Maybe some of us should do an insurance startup and make real cash....:D

Considering giving notice this week..... it looks like that it's going to happen!

You are assuming insiders dump the stock. Obviously you don't have a finance job with that kind of analysis.

Dear Neke, This is a great story. I want to answer your comment on news. You cannot be serious that you ignore news. This Thursday was QE3 day-you knew that ahead of time, and so did everyone else. Have you not traded on an FOMC day before? It is extremely difficult. I don't know of anyone...

Thanks for the replies Ripley and GMST. Ripley, when I read your first post I thought you were not a real trader since it looked like you pulled 99% out of the air (arbratrary things are something traders do) but I'm glad you clarified. I mentioned I'm totally discretionary, which I feel is a...

". At the same time, the heavy rich bloated insiders are selling the shares like there is no tomorrow." Who are you talking about? You are assuming these sellers are long term traders who don't like the stock. Selling does not mean they hate the stock. Venture capital firms are not hedge...

Does emg have a mental disability? I am going to put him on my ignore list.......

"Why do more than 90% of traders lose?" This is not fully true. The CBOT published that over 90 percent of new retail accounts opened lose their money in 6 months. I think most retail traders lost money in the beginning. That doesn't mean they learned how to be successful. In this thread...

I'm a trader who started in the 90`s. Today I am making allot of money for my firm. While I have faults, I survived our 08/9 and dodd frank job cuts. I love my job, but in short-I have enough saved where I could easily work for myself. I am curious about other people who have done this, and...

They will do a margin call if you go in the red a few percentage points. This is how it works on retail and institutional trading.

The only people I know who have econ degrees are a few dickhead consultants in Boston. They wear vests on their Mens Warehouse shirts, make no money and produce little.

I use Intrade, it's allot of fun. The best part is you can show a verlierer who was at your college 8 years ago that you spent $10,000 betting someone would win an election.
