Moved into the new casa, great new and broadband connections tested since Thursday night so I can trade today. Danish National Symphony Orchestra playing the Good, the Bad and the Ugly on new sound system.. Darn, I was going to open with your 14 years being nearly 20 but the very observant Mr Foresight got there first. Bold added. July 21, 2010 is when Dodd Frank was enacted.. and probably took a little while to affect your brokerage.. so that was 'very early" in your career? That shortens your trading career a bit more there boss. If we are counting like that I had an e-trade account in 1997 so I have been a "trader" for 21 years now not just 4.5 Anyway, you are full of it but onwards.. Can I point to a trading "idea" I made in real time on this site? Em... I backtest my "ideas" as you should, until they are proven they are just a notion. Should you be trying to say trading call? I mostly scalp for 2-x ticks so telling people what I'm about to do on a non-real time discussion board system? And if factors change seconds later? Everyone must develop their own system, the best one can achieve is a trading group that share some common levels, guys on a slight mix of timeframes giving heads up on xyz. Scalping with some longer swings when they come is not necessarily the best way to trade but hey, keeps me busy and the juices flowing. 87%+ success rate is normal/necessary for heartache-free scalping baby. I recall you mentioned on your Super terrific happy hour (like the name actually) thread you were scalping 75% wins? Not high enough for the good money. Well you have been trading for 14 or 20 years (or 10 ish?), perhaps you are in a rut or just don't want to work hard. You claim to not be overtly political just money focused. So your political views here are driven by a resentment of Dodd-Frank forcing your your US broker to close and/or could not offer you (your company?) the extreme leverage required for some broad system? So you went offshore and got ripped off by some fly-by-night broker.. bad judgement there boss or you were running a fragile system and shit happened? Mature. Yeah.. and you I recall once mentioned that 200k was the difference between your best and worst year as a trader? As you are very resentful let say you only made 20k being generous...180k a year? After 14 or 20 years trading? I'd expect to make that running any number of small businesses. Hell my young cousin in the states made nearly that after tax (and paid for his college) with a mobile knife sharpening company. So lets just say you may be an average trader but you seem a little timid.. as I have mentioned before. Seems we are Pawndexter free for a week now. Hopefully he is having a nice holiday with his sister.
