  2. 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?

    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

    …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

    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.
