I can't believe I posted in this dumb journal. Where's the 'undo' button? JS
Not so fast N'Jeff . . . making $80k/year with the backing of a $100k account is what successful daytraders do . . . Most probably make a higher %...
Dunno about that, here's how I learned to trade the NQ and barked up a worthwhile tree: 1) Understand price action basics (sorry, gotta study a...

Lescor, Your trading style is high volume, thin "margins", semi-automated. Should aspiring traders be focused on the same approach in your...
