  1. i do.
    thank you.

    but i'll be ripping the industry a new one on a regular basis.

    just because the market goes up doesn't mean wall street is forgiven.

    or that it's business as usual...

  2. This is kind of true in fact.
    There was a trader on T2W who had a free room for a while. He DID prove how successful he was with account statements/live calls/ and sometimes we could even see his trading program trading in front of our eyes through a chatroom which allowed us to see his screen. He has been trading for about 15 years.

    He never charged a cent and always said "why would i charge anyone when i have the market to 'rip off'"

    he doesn't do it anymore so i wont mention his name but im sure any t2w people know who i am referring too.

  3. congratulations.
    seriously.
    kudos.
    any trader who can sit down and admit, let alone recognise and analyse and learn from this experience, and then excel from it, is tops in my book.
    email me a copy of your book. i'd love to read it.

  4. Cliff's notes version-

    "I opened an account at Assent, lost all my money, now I blame them and all of Wall st. for my failure".

    The End.

  7. Don't sit next to a pro. Sit next to your neighbor. Just make sure to do the opposite.

    i agree with this. i have never met a profitable manual electronic day trader in more than 15yrs. everyone i know trades spreads, options, or is automated.

    if there is a manual electronic day trader in chicago I would like to meet you. PM me
