vegas not longer tolerates scientific card players. the sequence goes like this: you play 21 at a full table. you counts cards (use 5's theory as an easy beginner type player.) listen for the "cricket". this means you are known and the floor observer has told the dealer. the dealer is replaced and he debriefs the dealers who will step in after the present dealer dealing to you. as this dealer deals, a sweet young thing will offer you a drink of your choice. She is assigned to you to get you to drink a lot. a new deale arrives. He steps up the hands. he keeps you on your toes. the sweet young thing is showing you a lot of skin too. she gets real close too. then the cricket cliccker says hi he asks if you want a comp dinner . say yes. and accept the tickets. I use an ice bucket for chips. I slide them off the table every so often. I know at dinner I am going to be approached for a conversation. the parties over. when you read "beat the dealer" you are just being told how probabilites work. strategies are very easy to apply. first you build your mind. then you strive my drills to have facility. doubling down is not hard to handle. things get a little easier if other players are bitching about your play (cos they think you are taking thier losses) keep that ball rolling by giving them a few chips once in a while. BE NICE. they lose them and still bitch again. If you are teaching another person it is a good thing. You keep sliding them chips and it disorients th dealer a little. 21 is a game where the probabiity keeps changing. In trading, profit segments are always 100% certain as most traders know. as you look at my trades you see "early exit boxes". I leave when the rate of change of aumulation gets to a limit (think calculus but with finite numbers instead of continuous functions) also look at sidelines where in a bar or so I reenter when the probability is zero (of loss) for the ensuing profit segment. In bar-by-bar trading, you are jsut running a winning hand. there is no folding all there is is End Effects. All EE's are on lists. the lists are highly organized. all the EE's are there and there are never any surprises.
First off let me congratulate you on a brilliant resolution. Having had a similar idea myself :eek: I'll tell you what I'll do. Unfortunately you can't follow since you said you can't play forex. EURUSD dropped 400 pips over the past 17 days. That's a very rapid down move, in an up trend. This first week of June I'll enter long using a 400:1 leverage account. Using about half the account money. Stop at -47 pips (margin call) and Take Profit at 1.4. That's where the move started from. I'm going to make over 500% on capital, in about 5 to 8 weeks, I anticipate. ras72
I am trading forex for the last 10 years, and yes I probably can open account with pepperstone or amp futures forex , I have one forex system on collective2 with the highest return I believe,in the last 4 years I made around 1200% , regarding that trade i would not do it, high chance of losing, very hard to guess which it will go , it might continue down for another 1000 pips or go all the way to 1,44. Anyway I have short bias and would short all the way to 1,44 averaging down
After some thinking I am coming to conclusion to diversify between 3 brokers and trade different strategies 1amp futures 10000$ 2. Spot forex 5,000$ with pepperstone and local Canadian stock broker quest tax free account 10000$ Or maybe just put everything in Amp ? The problem is I got 0 experience trading futures or stocks and have around 10 years exp trading spot forex like oanda ,fxcm with great success, the problem is spot forex not allowed anymore by Canadian regulators in province of Alberta , the only one accepting is I believe pepperstone of Australia , but I am kind of leery to that
