Which trading session hours (Eastern Standard Time) are best for scalping strategies in the stock market?

I would like to short college debt of American private liberal arts college graduates. Where and how do I do it?

Works until it doesn’t.

Any positive expectancy strategy is actually a negative expectancy one as long as it is speculative, because financial markets are an epitome of randomness. Yet if your strategies have a non-speculative edge, you should have no issue partnering with a top coder.

LOL. Doubt it.

If you think you’ll keep making that with any degree of consistency, you’re plain fooling yourself, or else you would end up with all the money in the world.

The same goes for Forex brokers and pretty much any retail trading setup available to punters.

Entire regulated exchanges act as bucket shops. Take IG-owned Nadex for one. CFTC Nadex Review: Two Market Makers Account for 99% of Flow (https://www.financemagnates.com/institutional-forex/exchanges/cftc-nadex-review-two-market-makers-account-99-flow/) "Market Risk Management and Group One...

The bucket shops don't need to rig the game with odds already heavily in their favour in the long run. The game is an entirely random one while technical analysis creates an illusion it's not. Just because there were some patterns in the past doesn't mean they will keep repeating. More than...

For your iron-clad rock-solid evidence, kindly check the free "educational" materials they offer to lure punters into active trading (and losing to them).

I hope you got a good job after going broke on Nadex.

First, you face their horrible ask-bid spread, then you are charged their fixed extra fees per side, and, lastly, you might also incur negative slippage more than often. How do you establish an edge under these conditions?

Are you now wealthy on Nadex beyond your wildest dreams five years into it? I can’t even hear back from them by email. Also, no idea how one could frequently and consistently return a profit with such a high ask-bid spread.

More likely lose an extra buck or two to an insanely high ask-bid spread. How do you like their customer service by email?
