Are you seriously considering this? Paying $36,000 for "professional trader classes" is a total waste of time and money. You would have to be a ten-pound-watermellon-headed-moron to spend that kind of money on "trader classes". For that amount of money, you can have a real education from an accredited university that might actually get you a job as a trader. Look at the masters programs at the Stuart Graduate School of Business. They have affiliations with every exchange in Chicago, along with plenty of institutions. To answer your question directly, I would not drop a penny in a tin can for so-called "professional trader classes". -segv
Not a penny. Trading is about self discovery. I can ask Electric about trading terms and definitions, but he never has tried to teach me to trade. He would laugh and say its the blind leading the blind. I think it is far better to encourage and to support traders in their quest. Insightful thought provoking events, are of most interest. New people entering the world of trading are refreshing with their energy and enthusiasm. It is the more experienced traders that should let them run and try to guide them in the correct direction. Not that there is one way or anything like that...but there are clear dead-ends to steer clear from. Wifey
i don't know what's more annoying, the cadence of Bitstream's posts, or someone who refers to themselves as 'Wifey'? hmmmm....
riskarb You did not have my permission to post my PM. this tells me what type of person you are. I am well known in the trading world, I will never give my name away. why do I post on here something to do, I have made my money, have plenty and dont need to trade, but i do I love it I trade money for 3 wealthy people. I only trade 2 hours a day, at the open, so got plenty of time on my hands. Until you or ET set up a third party, I wont hand over 500k........But am willing to show you Live trades through live chat and you can do the same, till everything is drawn up legally
ok this has become boring...its PERMISSION not POSITION and even if english is not your first language you did change the terms of the challenge very early in the game...over
Riskarb and Buzz. I, for one, would like to see this done. What's the big deal. Post the dough at a reputable FCM or broker, agree to a time window (duration, start, and end), and do it. If you were paranoid about identity you could just pick a number for the account. I like trading the spoos so would be great to see "made men" do their magic.
Heard from 3 guys via PM that he's pulled this stunt repeatedly. He trades 2 lots in YM and has no funds: http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=959855&highlight=ym#post959855 Will only trade for a week, can't reveal his name for risk of getting banned. Yeah, right. OK then, done with this particular hydroencephalic.
Shucks. Well I suppose I can get the "Pit Girls" to just mosey around the house naked for the day. They'll be disappointed though.
