    So why start with $8K? You've got a half mil here. Oh yeah, I made $1.2 billion in Aug. Who do you clear? Gull and Bull securities?

    What??

    0.23% a day represents a 78% return per year, on a compound basis.

    Of course it is impressive, this bright young man is already earning a doctor's salary just from his trading activity alone.

    He really did his homework, no doubt, you cannot generate that kind of consistent income just by luck, year after year.

    I appreciate the nice words but its not true. When you factor in how much time i spend on weekends, after work, the amount of money i can make at work if i focus 100% of my time. How much I would have made if i took a regular job out of school as a CFA charter holder, or if i even would have just started a traditional business i probably would have been better off.

    Well, just stay away from Sainte-Catherine and Saint-Denis streets (too many "temptations"...) and the Casino of Montreal and you will be fine. ;)

    Wait a minute, you said you wanted to make $1 million with your trading system, yes?

    In any case, with the money you are making trading, you can always start a brick and mortar business later, or pursue any other career path you like, no big deal, you are still young.

    But one thing is for sure, the priceless trading experience you have acquired so far will last you a lifetime.

    Today's summary

    +$1500 (wired out) from the penny stock strategy (long on a few Canadian gold juniors at the open)

    +$200 TFSA same strategy as the penny stock but NO shorting,

    +$120 USD from the new GLD system

    overall good day

    will post more on the criteria and rules to the new GLD system but for now its quite simple.

  9. I spend thousands and thousands on drinking, gambling and women. The rest of my money I just waste... :D
