24 single looking to go full time into day trading

LOLOL!!! Thanks for making my day Jack. Classic obfuscation and koolaid :p
Quote from jack hershey:

Lo has a new book out. As usual it is co authored.

He devotes thirteen chapters to people he determined had views on TA.

Chapters 14 through 20 review some aspects of the mysteries of TA. Elsewhere, I posted a peek at the sub chapter contents.

There is a possibility that you may gain something from reading the booklet.

Apparently, I have been neglectful in posting the details of what frustrates some people. And what might possibly be the solution to the frustration.

If you can, get out there and meet a few experts. By engaging with them routinely and frankly, you may get some valuable insights into how people trade successfully and also enjoy it too.

When I post I often use references to authoritative sources of aid for people who are on quests to learn or prove something.

You have made a great contribution to ET. Jim Fowler did a lot too. Each of you came to different conclusions about the same thing.

There are many spheres of interest out there regarding the financial industry and its theme of making money. Most often there is little overlap from one sphere to another. But many of them make a lot of money continually.

Try reading "Musicophilia" by Oliver Sacks, something might trigger in your mind about something or other. Try to do a read in "Mindfulness in Plain English" by V. H Gunaratana and see if any bells go off for you.

Luckily everyone is smarter than everyone else. It makes the world go round, apparently.

People have gone to the extent of giving you phone numbers to call to get the poop straight from the horse's mouth. So far you haven't.

Keep up the great contributions you make. People like you have a lot to offer.

Why is it you do not do intraday trading?

Have you tried out the "unusual volume" in "putting the Piecs Together"? The Qcharts guy certainly didn't have the one pager in mind when he designed the unusual volume equation for sorting lists. Why do you think Jim Fowler didn't come up with unusual volume as a sort? One thing I really like about the unusual volume one pager is that the rules and lookup table are too difficult to make into an ATS.

Who will be the first to automate it? Will computers of the future be able to automate the one pager? I don't think so. It won't be Harvard or MIT will it?

Quote from TraderZones:

Well if you are in any group of "experts" such as a group of 3, that means there is 2 experts in the group.

Sorry, Jack, but by now you should be able to tell that quite a few dozen ET posters (not counting Mr. 50 alias) think you are nothing but an empty short

You fear auditing like a claustrophobic fears dark closets. You have Auditaphobia.

Not a single redirect you have ever tried is convincing.

You talk academia and point to experts and use long diatribes. But nothing you ever say is credible. Several people challenged you mano a mano. You refused.

In other words, you cannot trade, and desperately fear anything that would demonstrate this.

Quote from JScott:

Dear OP,

Your thread has officially been hijacked about uninteresting, non-relative stuff.

Keep trading.

Quote from wolfab82:

AWESOME advice. There are firms, where you can trade futures with just a small amount of money. Every time you are correct, you can use full leverage and make 1k a day on a lousy 20 tick play on the dow! But of course, it took me 5k in losses to figure this out!

Stocks should lower pdt rules, margin etc.

Futures rock and theres a reason why they keep slamming stocks in growth in participation!

This is simply the rich creating barriers to entry for the smart and not so rich or poor!

Stick to your dreams, try it out and DO NOT TRADE EVERY DAY. READ READ READ.

You CAN make a living out of this, if this is for you. Some people are too impatient.

These sour bastards are all over 30 yrs old. Married to a horrible biotch, and have no more dreams to chase, THEY ALSO HAVE CHILDREN.

I am 26, no kids, no mortgage, I have done crazy sh*t in futures and I am hoping to trade crude oil one day.

Find a good prop trading firm that doesnt become pushy in terms of overtrading. (good luck as most of these will want to make you poor and make themselves rich! especially in NY!)

If not, start trading futures on thinkorswim for 1 to 2 years, on DEMO.

Then, use a smaller margin broker for futures and take say 3 k you can blow and start with that and really tight rules and discipline.

If you suck, try again and learn from your mistakes. I did, now, I laugh at adults and losers, posers and peons with slave jobs.

As long as I can make 2k a month until reaching my desired lot size, I am happy.

Dont let anyone stop you. The world is full of arrogant, simple simon assed losers who will crush and eat your dreams.

At least try. If you fail, school isnt going anywhere, and neither is the library!

Get your CISCO certifications instead of wasting 4 years of your life man. Also, get certified in web design through Adobe and Graphics through Adobe that way you have a nice resume.

Again, great advice from belwetherbull!

My dad was telling me about futures he lost a couple grand on it in like a couple of seconds he said you can make a lot in futures and you can lose a lot, but you can also make a lot, any reccomendations on books or sites that I can use to further my education on futures or option?

unfortunately, self-anointed gurus like Jack Hershey seek out poeple like you, and play the part of Pied Piper. You could not begin to understand until you saw his enormously complicated self-made theories of alternate world realities, his handful of devotees, sucking in newbie traders, tying them in knots, accepting their worship. All for his own self-gratitude.

It is a cruel thing that Jack, who has multiple times said he was leaving, but he cannot pull himself away from the attention, and comes back seeking more devotees.

A few of us are still trying to ring-fence the master of disaster.
