When I first started trading, any free time was spent looking at charts, reading, writing code to test something related to the markets or sleeping. I finally quit reading everything I could find when I realized I disagreed with most of what I was reading, of course it took years to get to the...

I usually don't reply to little girls in pink tutu's, but I was just saying if someone makes claims like that then it's not unreasonable to ask for proof. Why does that make me a loser. It's obviously not related to trading as I have been in this business for 25 years.

I really have to ask...Are you a full time trader, making a living in the markets? I don't mean living off your spouses money while you dabble in the markets but really make a full time living in the markets? I haven't read such silliness in a long time :lol:

That is many traders problem, not understanding the context of the market they are trying to trade. A reversal bar at then end of a run is not the same as a reversal bar after a correction or downtrend. The context the bar appears in has just as much or more relevance than the bar pattern itself.

That's funny! :D

Since you make such claims, start your own thread, show us one week of picks before you make the trades, so everyone can see you make 25-30%. I show mine every day.

I agree, Mark Douglas' books are well worth reading. The Disiplined Trader is very good as well. Learning the rules to trade a system can be learned in days, the psychological side can take years.

The first thing you will need to do is learn the context of the market you are trading in. There are basically 4 phases of the market and each phase is traded differently. A market tends to go through a consolidation/accumulation phase which is represented by a narrow sideways trading range...

So what flavor was the Kool aid? Seems you had quite a pitcherful of it. As a trader, you shouldn't take political ramblings at face value, junk science is just that. Look at the unmanipulated numbers and you have a hard time coming up with any real evidence in man made global warming. And...

When you see a lot of insiders buying stock in their company, they tend to have a good understanding of the fundamentals of their company and very often it will be followed by an increase in stock price within a few months. But it takes a little digging to make sure they are not just exercising...

You just learned a great lesson in trading, the tuition at the University of Wall Street is often high but the lessons learned there can not be learned anywhere else. One of the first things you'll have to learn in trading is that you alone are responsible, you made the decision to follow...

I have been trading for over 25 years and full time trading for over 10 years. Even after all this time I'm still on the other side of the wall from addiction. I am always nervous about being in trades as I tend to be risk averse, so I only put on trades where I know I have a good edge and I...

Burn! :eek:

I am really interested in why anyone would have any interest in binary options? Everything is stacked against you and there is no way you will make money. In fact with the 80% payout, which seems to be the best out there, assuming you are able to be 70% profitable on your 'bets' and you are...
