    I’m looking for a proven trading strategy that actually works.. something that someone uses to consistently make real money.

    If you've been searching with what you've described above for a few years. You're not alone. Plenty of us have felt no method or something or the next thing we've tried ever seemed to work to be consistent in our first three to seven or more years. Only after more lessons learned and learning to...

    Took out a loan to transition to full-time trading. 24 years old.

    It's all a joke. What he wrote on elite at the beginning, " I was able to consistently make at least 2% returns a day while keeping my losses to 1% a day. I participated in virtual stock competitions and finished first places. I developed my own trading style and later found out it was a mix of...

    Oil Day Trader say we're all crooks!

    The lunatic is done. He's been kicked out of all the forums, and now out of youtube. He overdid it, tried to divert to any dumb excuse and topic and badly doing so, and now it's good that newbies are all forewarned on all the forums. :thumbsup: Oil Trading Academy Ninja - YouTube "sue, sue...

    Oil Trading Academy

    Hello, I see that oil trading academy has a youtube channel. He seems to be banging some serious bucks now. I can't tell if it's real or a scam. I just wondered what you all thought about this. Thanks. Oil Trading Academy - YouTube

    Does anyone trade off Bloomberg or CNBC ?

    That's true. A lot of those putzes like Guy Adami on Fast Money often just state the obvious while sleepy-eye staring down everyone else. And trying to follow all their trades on that roundtable for a while, they don't fare better than 50/50 most of the time. Even that options guy they bring on...

    My trading system. Any advice?

    It looks like you're going short trying to catch a pullback. This is probably the most riskiest type of trade trying to go countertrend scalping/reversion to the mean on a current trend long. I would only go short if price dipped below the low of the spike bar and would take profit much...

    IS this Karen Supertrader story legit?

    I don't drink beer no, but thanks. But I've been playing with the idea on sim for three months now. If you guys haven't seen it yet, there is a follow up segment on tastytrade and now posted on youtube where Karen's account is now $160 million plus. I would assume it's the rich elite piling on...

    tell me about spreads/condors...

    Well, for example in ThinkOrSwim, you can put the whole iron condor with 4 legs on order. But it may be the case each of your legs or just two of them will be filled by different market participants or market makers. But sure, a spread can be done separately with two orders or at once. When...

    tell me about spreads/condors...

    probably easier to look at it as two separate deep in the money vertical spreads. and open, roll or close them accordingly.

    some can also do deep in the money options on futures a few months out. but requires a lot of margin and can be big loss if things go bad.

    John Thomas: Macro Millionaire

    I had followed his newsletter for a while. I think what he meant by being "drafted" was just a way of saying he was asked to fly and was pulled back into service. One of his recent anecdotes was being pulled over by a traffic cop who had been a jarhead. John Thomas mentioned he was a former...

    Tradingology Options Videos

    They're ok for a beginner to options at the price if you can get it for $37. What sets it apart is that he actually uses TOS and demonstrates setting up the spreads. And far more worth it than scam options courses/seminar/software pushing sites like optionetics.com However it's mostly basic...

    John Thomas: Macro Millionaire

    I'd have to echo vkelly737. At first he seemed to have a couple of good calls. Then he kind of disappeared. He would say he would be going to some high roller trip to some countries. And then there would be no alerts for a month or so. And his calls got sloppier and it would usually be too late...

    Just crushed my account - almost - what now?

    How's it working out Hittfield? Good to hear you're in the market still. Did you move on to another platform/broker? Not able to adjust stops on futures is something a platform shouldn't have.
