Trading Tuitions

Missing poll option:

"$0. - My trading was profitable from the first day because I waited until I knew what I was doing before going live."

Or the real cost of tuition - two years opportunity cost - not earning a salary while learning how to trade correctly. Pissing away money getting it wrong != tuition.

I could turn a 50k demo account into 250-500k in one trading day and did so many times. I thought I knew what I was doing... Not the case. Real money is different than sim.

And who said that this option is missing in the poll? The reason I didn't make a poll was because I knew many people would have their own reasons and ways to calculate tuition.

Some people work jobs/go to school while they learn to trade, so if you want to include that (or disclude) then by all means....

Studying stocks: 1977, placed first trades 1980
Stocks tuition: $ 0, never have had down year in long term or intraday
Studying Futures: 1984, placed first trades 1985
Futures tuition: $105,000, 7 down years


Hi, handle,

Didn't know you paid futures tuition for 7 years. I guess I need to pay for more years, if 7 years are what it takes.
