    Anyone remember "peak oil" few years back

    in 2007, Wall street made you all believe that the world is running of oil, so the crude oil price shot over $140/barrel in 2008. If you bought that theory, you were the fool, crude oil tanked to $40/barrel in 2009. Now the wall street is telling you that we have too much oil now, despite the...

    Anyone remember "peak oil" few years back

    This board is filled with "peak oil" talks everyday. Now, all of sudden, Saudi Arabic has more than plenty of oil to supply the whole world? What a joke. Wall Street never stop lying. Few years back(just before 2008 crisis), crude oil climbed from $60/barrel to $140/ barrel, the whole world...

    Which broker can let me short 3X ETF, like JNUG, UVXY, etc?

    Thank. I trade JDST as well, but I would like to short JNUG since all those 3X ETF have time decay.

    Which broker can let me short 3X ETF, like JNUG, UVXY, etc?

    Which broker can let me short 3X ETF, like JNUG, UVXY, etc? My broker is TDAmeritrade. I can not short 3X ETF with them at all. Lot of times, people can short certain stocks with Scott Trade, but not with TDAmeritrade. Thanks

    Half way through life and not close to being consistent

    Thank you very much for the reply. For that account size, $50k loss or gain is normal. Wish you the best luck. I found it is very hard to trade in last 3 months. Not sure anyone has the same feeling.

    Half way through life and not close to being consistent

    Would you please tell us your account size? 3K loss for a $1M account is nothing. $50K profit for a $100K account is huge. Big or small profit/loss are all irrelevant without knowing the account size.

    Strategydesk in TDAmeritrade

    "i use TOS for one account. going to switch to IB cause td per trade cost way too much. plenty of charting services out there." TDameritrade is way cheaper than IB if you are buying 10000 shares at once. TD is always $5 per trade.

    Strategydesk in TDAmeritrade

    Strategydesk is being phased out. Anyone else here is using it? I rely on Strategydesk. None of other trading platforms that TDAmeritrade is providing is good enough for me. Anyone knows any other broker that has similar charting and trading platform? Many thanks in advance, Freewilly

    2012: The Battle for Survival

    "The trader can't wait for the market to adapt to his methods, he must adapt to the market instead." That is certainly correct, but is a lot easier to be said than done. In some period of time, it is just too difficult for most traders to make money. So maybe some oldies will die, and new...

    Resources for getting over fear of trading?

    Your system is nor working. You don't have an edge anymore. Trading small won't help. You need to develop a new edge.

    How "Pros" size their trades

    That's exactly right. People only recognize those who made it. It is like buying lottery tickets. Very few won millions and their initial investment was only few bucks. Please do not call it a method. That's just dumb luck.

    How do I monitor option activities in real time

    Sometimes, a stock's option gets very active. For example, someone bought 10000 contracts of AAPL, Is there anyway I can get an alert on huge option activity on any stock? I have a TDAmeritrade account and also I have trade-idea pro. I am willing to explore paid programs/services. Thanks...
