1996, a 401k into an LLC which became legal in 1995, you can do so much more like your retirement money you wouldn't believe. I have started business with these monies and buy lots of real estate, little tricks go a long way. I love day trading ES, I wake up each morning knowing I will make money and I average down on each trade, I designed a method where 55% of the trades end up at plus one tick on original opening signal, but all the add-ons get more than one tick, and say I have added on up to 8 ticks away and market rapidly goes my desired direction for the 8 ticks, I end up getting + 16, + 15...+ 8 ticks, so once you have faith in you system of not losing, why not ave down? That's what trading is about, knowing who you are, your weaknesses and when market is at your weaknesses, knowing when to stop trading.
