  3. This is true! My only point was that its not ONLY the firm's money that a beginner is trading with, as it often was in the past. And $5-$10g is the low end. Many firms expect $20-$25g to start.

    well, I trade in GMT +2 and I can tell you that it sucks.

    Market opens 4.30PM and closes 11PM meaning my working hours are something like 3PM to 12PM......

    ugh

    You are a madman. I wouldn't mind GMT-6 though, mebbe I should move to one of those central time zone states with no income tax. . .

  8. I'd say Florida is the best.

    Warm Weather...

    Low Taxes...

    Same Time Zone as NY...

    I agree Florida is great, or Delaware if you like it cooler, because of the tax situtation. Though there is an intangable tax on stocks in Florida.

  10. I started with 300 bucks in 1957. I wonder where I went wrong then. I added from salary and only made 10% a month at the beginning. It took me at least three years to have an income equal to my engineering salary. I had to work for five long years until I gave up working for a living.

    Somebody clue me in please.
