LOL....qxr1011, you may just be right!! But, as the saying goes, you can lead a horse to water but you can't make him do algebra....... I AM going to investigate any and all things that I feel will assist me on my trading path. However, that being said, I AM ABSOLUTELY going to take everything said here to heart and be mindful of the idiots and douchebags that are so plentiful online.... Thanks for your input
@qxr1011 agree with you. trading is for loners.... loners who can trade profitably, consistently and sustainably.... are too happy, content and busy.... to want to solicite, entice or advertise.... his/her 'holy grail'.... for whatever reasons.... here is a lone trader's fun and entertainment activity which has no trading value whatever implied or otherwise. enjoy. and profitable trading everyone.
there are paid "newsleters" that print material & orchestrate runs in micro-cap stocks, on a regular basis. You can sort of front run these by playing the game, get in earliest, exit quickly, scalp some gains. Risky strategy
Nakachalet is just another snake oil salesman, let me guess, he invited you to a private thread where he shows you his wonderful charts?
Sometimes trading rooms can give alerts for stocks that are in the go.. but it's not anything you can't do with a scanner
Hi john, I did attend a trading room room sponsored by a brokerage firm (Daniels' trading - I think). They had hired an ex floor trader with many years experience. It was a two week trial and the associated chat room guys in the room were a good bunch After the trial I would have stayed in the chat room but the programmer would made the code for the room was a clever programmer and I thought he was trying to put on spy ware. In any case I didn't stay. From the comments in the thread, you have probably gleaned that there is no clear defined path to being a profitable trader. Going to chat rooms can be distracting and sometimes guys will call a trade that works out and then subconsciously you might be influenced (perhaps even subconsciously) by a subsequent call and it will work against you. Trading is a lonely business. Anyone who has a true edge (consistent set-up advantage) can't really share it or it soon becomes meaningless. (speaking of the ES here). However people do share tips - in an interest to share and help each other - usually in forums. Over time you can accumulate theses and try them and test the ones that work for you. Staying on the sim until you are consistently profitable -with a consistent method - is a good idea. Good luck.
