The toughest trading year for veteran traders

If you've been trading for 25 years, then you can't be that good.



Thought this was great. I actually just retired at 40 from Wall Street. Not becase I had enough, because I now have the know-how to do it without the suit and politics that were all to distracting. Roger Clemens will pack it in this year. He is my age. The only difference is, he has more $ but I have a skill that I can continue to use and get richer. He will do some ads for the next year or two, then (other than his induction ceremony in HOF) enter into baseball oblivion (check spelling) coaching spring camp baseball in Fla. for $75,000 a year.

Clemmons will get $50 bucks or more each time he signs a baseball, photo, etc.

Nice gig.

...I think I need to seek professional help w/ respect to that photo -- don't have the slightest idea why it strikes me as being so funny

Why are you guys whining because someone claims they made a few million? You should be congratulating him instead of crying like jealous babies. It's people like you that drive good traders away from this site. If you had even a bit of intelligence, you would listen very closely to what they have to say, instead of annoying them.

All the money in the world, and that is your system?

LAUGH MY ASS OFF!!!

Would you mind telling me what is wrong with my system? 1 GB Ram, P4 very stable, Win 2000, Caviar HD, best video cards on the market imo...

I just got it 2 months ago.

My (6) Samsung 191T monitors "ROCK" (Samsung & Eizo are best monitors on the market). This system IMO is awesome, I have had NO freezeups, breakdowns, very quiet, high quality, etc...

I am very happy with this setup.

Where did I say I had all the $$$ in the World BOZO, I happen to be very comfortable with my financial position.

Everyone always bitches that this is the hardest market and they wish it could go back to the good old days. In 1999/2000 people bitched and moaned how hard it was and they they just wanted the good old days back. Its always hard.

Couldn't agree with you more.

There are some very good people on this board, with great input.

I never said anythng about my wealth until BOZO brought it up about "why am I still trading after 25 years in the market". I am in my mid 40's, should I just walk away from the markets because I have several million, which imo is Nothing (20 Million would be nice).

Should I get into another Profession that I now nothing about and have no passion for?

Unfortunately, there are also some MORONS on this board.
