I had a brokerage account with TD Waterhouse... I was daytrading diamonds (DIA)-DOW Index, 1000 shares of DIA one day..I shorted when DOW was up 50.. I covered my shorts when DOW was only up 20... Even though it was a good trade I still lost $150 bucks..Go figure..
Here's the best advice you'll get: Give me 70k and I'll invest for you! Hehe! Has anyone trade (scalp) equity options?
Motas said: âThis job is all about ATTITUDE, FAITH, PATIENCE, CONFIDENCE, DISCIPLINE, PRESSURE and losing is only a part of this job.â I amazes me that somebody so obviously: clueless with a hold & pray trading method in the bear market with an six month gambling habit with a huge loss and no experience gain with a total lack of discipline with inability to learn with the ability to lose and not feel the adequate pain to stop â¦has the audacity to state what is this job all about.
Topguntrader: Thanks for confirming. I am in the process of selecting a new platform and broker. My two top choices are TS6 and realtick. Thanks for all the positive comments.
"TS-6" if you will open account with them first logical attempt will be to use their systems most likely scenario will be :..... Becktest them ....., use those systems...... blow some more $ ......get another system some more $ down to drain. anyway whatever you do don't do that , do not use any of those Mike
first rule of trading, learn how to keep the money you already have, any thing conflict with this rule discard it. I think that is what he means.
