I work for a major online brokerage firm so I know how much money people are making in their accounts. I actually think 90% is a low number, to...
Good question. Common sense would tell you they must be out there. These prop firms don't seem to be too selective in who they choose to bring...
Who says the data is noisy or that it's on a time interval??? You're just quoting someone else's ideas about backtesting and turning it into a...
I will take that bet :) I think we are near a bottom for the next couple months at least.
Thanks for the info. Wouldn't it take months to study for all those licensing tests? I spoke to someone there today and they failed to mention...
It doesn't make or break, but there is nothing major to differentiate the two. Commissions are the same, there is no training. Do you know why...
I'm trying to decide which firm I should join, both seem to be very similar. I'm having trouble understanding a few things though: Echo is...

I do believe that people that gravitate towards trading independently, especially the ones who stick with it, are introverted people anyway. I am...
This thread got me to thinking about a couple more things regarding risk/reward and I was hoping someone could shed some light, especially those...
What do you mean you don't get it back, can't you opt out at any time and get a full payback? What are their commissions, how much leverage do you...
can you trade remotely with them? because it doesn't look like they have an office in chicago
Haaaaaa....fight club, LOVE IT
That makes sense. I guess I understand mathematically how scaling out could be worse than break even against all-out. For example, if my target...
How can you assume your ratio will skew to the negative?? Assuming there's just a normal distribution, your increased win rate should offset the...
I'm feeling like a moron today, I can't figure this out. I'm inclined to think that if your stop is the same, then it definitely can't be more...
Separate names with a comma.
