Pre market trading.....anyone ?

That reminded me.......hillary clinton was a great commodities trader.



by Caroline Baum & Victor Niederhoffer June 1, 2016 12:00 AM Is Hillary Clinton a better commodities trader than George Soros, or did she just get really, really lucky? Both explanations leave something to be desired. Editor’s note: A version of this article originally appeared in the February 20, 1995, issue of National Review. When Newt Gingrich told a Republican audience recently that his lucrative book deal paled in comparison with Hillary Clinton’s cattle-trading profits, the Speaker’s comments were greeted with wild applause and raucous laughter. Opened to public scrutiny less than a year ago, Mrs. Clinton’s one hundred-fold return from trading futures has already become part of popular lore. Whenever anyone is suspected of making a fast buck nowadays, the First Lady’s adventure in commodities trading is bound to come to mind. On October 11, 1978, the future First Lady, a neophyte investor with an annual income of $25,000, opened a commodity-futures account with a deposit of $1,000. Her first trade was the short sale of ten live-cattle contracts at a price of 57.55 cents a pound
Mrs. Clinton continued to be a net winner at the game. By the time she closed her trading account ten months later, she had racked up $99,541 in profits, a spectacular 10,000 per cent return on her initial investment of $1,000. Either Mrs. Clinton was a better trader than the legendary George Soros, whose best-ever annual return in thirty years of trading was 122 per cent, or she was led by an invisible hand.

At least she sold her portfolio.... you know, to remove any conflicts of interest.

 

Isn't it what everyone here wants? Afterall, we are all here to make $. Unfortunately, most of us lose money and only 4-5 percent of us actually make money. I know a lot of folks losing their entire trading account and still lie that they make $.
The stock market overall is an equation of different variables : greed,fear, politics, manipulation . I don't believe there is such formula working on stock market and trading overall....what works today might not tomorrow.

 

just becareful of the open....other than that, not much difference.

 

The election's over dude. She lost, a guy with massive conflicts of interest won. You can stop fabricating pure fantasy now, get a life!
