TOTAL HONESTY: how much did you lose today?

I wanted to see if the interest is there to start a group of traders(not trading together, not financially affiliated) who might be interested in focusing only on the positive aspects of their business.

If any of you have done this in other areas of your life, you would probably know better what I mean.

And our discussions would focus only on what we are seeking, the big goals, and things along those lines.

Anyway, that's my query to all of you. If anyone is interested we can start something. Some kind of chat or something...or maybe even threads with only positive intent.

For me this stuff works and sharing it is very powerful.

Thanks.

What about this year? You are telling me that you traded that long and didn't pull a bunch out this year? With all of this volatility?

Anyway, mr. metal, whatever works for you. I agree the period you talked about after that was lower in volatility (and although you didn't use that word I filled in the blank for you). But there are a ton of strategies available to you, maybe next time you will pick one that works better when conditions change. Maybe less posts and more trading? hmm.

One I used during that time was long short arbitrage, which turned into directional trades by lifting certain legs of trades as conditions warranted.

PM me for details.

All the best, man. Sorry you didn't like my attitude, but I am not here to please you. Right?

Or did you mistake me for someone who is?

So many condescending assumptions, so many errors. :p

I'd set you straight, but since most of this board already knows exactly what kind of numbers I put up this year, I'll just sit back and let everyone else have a little chuckle at your expense, hmmm...

Glance at the 24DEC07 issue of Businessweek; see the article on page 76; it lists several locations such as you are seeking.

Some have min capital requirements and others reporting requirements.

For Businessweek to write them up just goes to show how far the industry has gone to get the public involved and how far out in left field the press and journalists are.
 
You sure have a lot of posts, is that what you mean by your numbers? If so yes I would say your numbers are phenomenal. Just kidding don't get all steamed now.

Maybe don't take it so seriously, this is a chat room where most people here do not make a living trading. Its a chat room where people say whatever they want.

Maybe we should have a little challenge that my % numbers will be better than yours in 2008. Or lets make it shorter term...Like in January? Whatever you like.

Would that be satisfactory? Just for fun, it just might make you and I better. R U IN?
