  4. Most retail pikers would benefit with a visit to a trading floor whether its exchange or an investment bank just to see not only volumes but sheer size of individual orders. That could be enough for them to see how small or insignificant they are, and why they should always go with the flow and with tight stoplosses !!!! Permabull or Permabear menta attitude not only relieves your pocket, but keeps your in the frame of mind that thinks of every trade should be a winner....

  6. I went to my first trading floor the other day...just about 60 people, very hellacious looking honestly. It looked about as depressing as a cubicle job...I didn't realize how boring I look. Bunch of mid-20-30 year old suits looking stressed and miserably.

    Do you work on a trading floor. I'd be interested to hear about the stresses and strains of the job from someone who truly knows them.

    It's excessive, even by ET standards.

  8. Why? I've went from about 40k to about $1.5M in about 3 years...mostly on penny stocks and small caps. Big whoop...it's not something extraordinary in this day and age. Granted, it's not easy to do, but much of it has to do with looking for value, of which there is very little on the OTC, and striking when you find it.

    Sorry if you don't believe that, but it's the truth. It's harder when you have more money I think due to allocation....on the OTC you can't use such size but homeruns are aplenty if you're astute...the problem is finding and latching on and following.

    Good luck. :)

  9. Don't apologize. Question why you [and infooo] feel the need to comment with utter BS. I am not talking absolute numbers, but I've tripled 7-figure OPM accounts with <10% VaR in a year.

    It's a matter of edge, not probabilities. If anyone cares to put their money on the line, I'm as close as a PM. If you did it once, you can do it again, right?

  10. I have no need to. I'm happy with the money I have and don't have the small balls that make me need some lame challenge like that. I can grow the money I have much slower and live nicely. You losers with something sorry to prove can race your peanuts to the end...I was just commenting that what he did was totally feasible. Take it easy buttercup! :D
