    Yeah but deep inside, they are still using looking like what I showed. I am showing a trader's inner-self. LOL

    No doubt Billy Boy is a boss whose screwed more women than i ever will, but its hard for me to be upset over Trump winning when he has already made me so much money, in the first couple months his twitter feed was a gold mine, hed shit on a company or pump one up and if you were on it right away it was free money, hes lost alot of his effect now though as the market gets used to him shooting his mouth off every other day.

    Most is automated. I don't day trade stocks, long term stocks/commodities/hedged, can be under $10 so long as I can hedge. Building a trading system when starting out takes great deal of years as you have limited knowledge, read all that you can but start with charting, if you can't chart, it will much harder IMO. Concentrate on risk first before entry, using chart pattern learn when not to put on trades.

    Most time am thinking of new challenges.

  8. I check my account near the opening bell, but I never do any trading then. I check my greeks and then I wait until about 11:00 AM to open a daily trade. I then set my closing orders and check back around 3:30. I probably look at things for about 30 minutes a day. Then, I start the whole process over the next day. Rinse and repeat!

    Hate Janet Yellen, the most useless and ineffective Fed chairman ever. Can't believe they replaced Bernake with even a worse one.
