he who must not be named, lest ye get a Hershey sized revenge post with fractals, traversing etc., here's what you need to do get a three ring binder.........blah blah......taking beeelions from the full offer of de mkt....:p
 
Quote from OldSpec:

You found a business more lucrative than trading? I was under the impression that you were one of the few successful traders who'd make a fortune trading, and never quit? I say this without any sarcasm.

Sometimes when people come through difficulties in life, they undergo a spiritual transformation and decide that chasing the "lucrative" isn't all that satisfying. I no longer spend 60 hours a week trading, studying, compiling stats, etc. I have a complete plan and am satisfied with it; it's comprehensive. For example, today I traded for an hour and was done. I have several things I placed on hold for years and have decided to put my spare time into those things :)

TBH I wasn't surprised that the outcome was a yawn. When are the Hershey acolytes going to produce something other than dinner out?

Good for you, there are things in life that are more important than trading.

punting futures directionally is a tough way to go, add in undercapitalized? I always thought that the job of a prop firm was the training, the value add. It doesn't seem these guys are trained how not to lose. Max draw 3% with 8.5% profit target, not sure how realistic this is for new guys.
 
Quote from small_beer:

So totally agree. If you mean the charts. Its trading platform is too crude for me. I use Bracket Trader for trading. That's the best combo I have found. Also in terms of overall costs.

Yes, BT and SC are a very good combo. A friend of mine who is a phenomenal emini scalper swears on it, especially on the BT part. Without BT, his winning rate would be at least 5-10 points lower, he says. With BT his winning rate is over 90%.
