    Selfwealth is a flat $9.50. I Swing Trade up to $100K. Stake is $.01 per trade over 30k, bit dearer.

    That would be trading SPX thru SPY (ETF), not ES - (futures equivalent).

    LOL, nothing like a good TX trend.
    I may never make what NEM makes in the copper business, but that's ok + that's not their main business anyway. Even that bunch of commercials or pros like that NEM, seldom if ever beat the SPY benchmark anyway.
    But good thing for me i never paid much attention to narrow labels, no disrespect to SEC use of the word pro.
    Some one asked Jim Cramer ''are you a trader or investor??" LOL He said " I dont even like the question '', It must be too narrow a question LOL :D:D
    Thanks.

    Seems @newwurldmn still has issues sticking to promises. He went on another poet bender. Thought October was his ET off time, apparently not so.

    I'm out. I'm gonna focus on other things that can enrichen me further.

    You all can follow @PPC and @Hot Shot. I'm sure listening to them will produce the 8 figure returns that Des and I alluded to earlier in the thread.

    I also suggest following @DepthTrade. The guy knows how to take a 1MM fictional account and turn it into a 1.01MM fictional account in 4 months.

    @wxytrader is another to follow. He believes options are a waste of time, but has created a new term o understand volatility. We all call it Vega.

    See you in a month at the earliest. No ET October!

    2]May have paid for real estate, with low property taxes, that'$ the way i do it.
    3] Paid for auto, with budget[spending plan] Dave Ramsey is right,mostly
    4]NOT sure if he was a bee keeper ?? But another business[ cash metals......] helps a lot+ allows for the trade-invest set ups or set downs we like....................................................
    5]Savings, local bank, + or money market can be separate from capital account .

    Could you clarify what you mean by Technology in the above?

    Are you saying that the associated platforms (Marketsmith, others), or Mark's use of them, deemphasized financial analysis in Can-Slim? I've heard that from a long-term MPA participant - that Mark M. looks for 10% pops based on chart patterns and TA, and rarely talks about the financials.

    Read Momentum Masters and you will get a decent feel for Minervini,Ryan.Ritchie and Zangers approach.

    James O Shaughnessy concluded that the best growth metric was 6 month relative strength,not Sales or EPS growth. And FWIW,his research favored metrics like P/S and EV/Ebitda.

    I would take a look at Portfolio123 and find out for yourself,but IMHO the technical and Money management is what makes them good

    I'm very familiar with all of the above. I'd still like to know what you mean by "Technology" in the passage I quoted. Are you saying that Can-Slim related software has subsequently de-emphasized financial metrics in favor of technicals?

  10. in 2010 there was this thing called Bitcoin. $1000 bought 100,000 coins. such a find today might be a bit more complex. AI and disruptive tech could be a starting place. seems the PEPE coin has some dreamers.

    what could be another comparable? it's only a $7B question
