strange, I see your demo account up up and away.

Your real money account, down down and gone.

First off, I tried to trade without a stop loss. In order to pull it off
you need to have more than HOPE. You need to be willing to watch
the market until you make your profit or make your trade flat. This
could end up being a few days and a lot of in and out positions.

I then realized this type of trading doesn't work well for me because
I trade part-time. I then realized I would rather take 14 tries at 3.5%
risk than get margin called at 70% loss.

So I determined the best course of action is raise my risk to 3% equals
20 pips, have a "hard" 20 pip stop loss, naked chart, use multiple orders, 4 hours a day, 5 days a week, and master my zeroline skills. It is a
method I have been most successful using and like MightyOne said 20%
something a month and a few years you will be wealthy.

$1000 @ 24%/month @ 22 trading months is over $100,000 trading
account.

24% a month is 6% a week equals net 40 pips a week

11 more months would be $1,000,000 < basically 3 years and less time
it takes to get a college degree (although I already waisted my time and
money to earned one) :x


Many that go to college end up making between $45,000 and $55,000 a year (wtf right?)

A waitress or cook makes about $35,000 & a bartender that I know makes around $39,000 (we'll leave strippers out of this ;)) and they don't have to pay off school loans...(throw in the cash under the table and their income jumps to $41,000 to $50,000/yr)

Assuming that when you make more you spend more (better restaurants, travel, larger homes, better cars) the educated are not really that far ahead of anyone else if at all.

Your only hope of freedom is to start a business and/or invest.

You know there is a problem when you are not retired by age 30 :wink:


Ok, MO, you pushed it. I tried to restrain myself asking intrusive questions, but ...

1) did you ever (do you?) have a paying job, like....most ?

2) did you actually 'retire' at or earlier than 30?

basically, whats your story? Only thing I know from NLA is that you started trading pretty early.
Are you Buffet under a nickname MO, and you are just bored? :wink: :D

Yeah, even I don't think Buffet is under MO moniker... (from a BBC's biographical film I saw on Buffet) Buffet spends almost all his free time playing Bridge game online. Whenever you come across a handle "T-Bone" in an online bridge game its Mr. Buffet!
